The Superkick

AEW Grand Slam: Australia is coming up in less than two weeks on February 15th from Brisbane, and I’ve noticed some negativity surrounding the event. There are a few reasons why some fans are feeling disappointed. The biggest issue is that this will be a special edition of Collision airing on TV rather than a pay-per-view. On the  SquaredCircle  Reddit , several users attending the show have expressed their displeasure with the announcement that it will be a special edition of  Collision  rather than a PPV. Personally, I’d rather it  not  be a PPV—I won’t have to pay for it—but I understand why fans would prefer it. The biggest moments in AEW, like title changes, surprise debuts, or five-star matches, typically happen on pay-per-view, so it makes sense that fans were expecting something bigger.  The second reason for disappointment is the venue change. When the event was first announced on August 25th, it was set to take place at Suncorp Stadium, a 52,...

WWE and 2K announced WWE 2K25 and there’s some exciting features like the new “Island” and online MyGM multi-player. What’s gotten my excited however, is the return of promos in Universe Mode. Players haven’t been able to add promos in the mode since 2K20. Every year I go to play Universe Mode when the new game comes out, I look to add promos to my shows but it doesn’t let me. It’s been slightly annoying. Not annoying to the point where it actually frustrates me, it’s like biting my tongue every time I want to try add promos. I’m assuming they wanted to push people to MyGM, which was introduced in WWE2K22 and featured promos.  In the official release for 2K25, the developers announced finally announced the return of promos. MyGM is great and a lot of fun but there’s not a lot of flexibility to really do what you want. For instance, you can’t create custom shows. Universe Mode let’s you do that. Custom shows, PPVs and Championships. It really makes you feel like you’re running the ...

Josh Alexander’s contract with TNA Wrestling is up. Over the past couple of months, we've seen TNA let a few big names slip away, including Jordynne Grace, Rhyno, and PCO, with the most notable being Jordynne Grace, who officially debuted for WWE at this past weekend’s Royal Rumble. Could we see “The Walking Weapon” join Grace in WWE? I would be a massive fan of WWE signing this talented grappler.  We didn’t see him move to NXT over the last year, like Joe Hendry and Hammerstone during the initial NXT/TNA crossover, which I was disappointed by. I’m a big fan of Josh Alexander. He’s a technical machine with the ability to be a top guy, and he can get both himself and his opponent over on the mic. He’s been TNA’s franchise player for the past four years, becoming their longest-reigning World Champion ever. His former tag team partner from The North, Ethan Page, has been in NXT for over a year and has blossomed into one of the top heels on the brand. I would love to see Josh join Etha...

We saw Jey Uso win the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble tonight—a move that nobody was expecting. It seemed like a foregone conclusion that either John Cena, CM Punk, or even Roman Reigns would win. Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins were eliminated by CM Punk, and then Punk was taken out by Logan Paul in a shocking move. This left the remaining favourites in the match: John Cena, Logan Paul, and Jey Uso. While John Cena was a big favourite heading into the match, should we have seen his loss coming?  When we got to the final two, Uso and Cena, I asked myself a question: “If John Cena wins the Royal Rumble, what will he do at Elimination Chamber?” It’s already been confirmed that Cena will wrestle for the final time in Toronto at Elimination Chamber next month. If he won the Rumble, he would have no reason to compete in the Elimination Chamber match. He’d already be the #1 contender, so there’d be no point in being in a match for the title with five other guys. The same goes for a Championship ...
