Lets get something straight there is only one pro wrestling company. That is the WWE. Though there are others they are not in the same league. By the same token the UFC is the only mma promotion in the U.S. Both Strikeforce and TNA are clear seconds but distant seconds. Both the WWE and the UFC are so firmly established they are pretty much synonymous with their respective sport in the way the NFL is with football and the NBA is with basketball. In all likely hood that won't change. Even though strikeforce has has the #1 ranked...
#1 Contender Concept
Welcome to The Daily Slam!
Last nights 3 hour edition of Raw with Jesse "The Governor" (because The Body isn't cool enough to say) Ventura was one of most dynamic and interesting one in quite some time. I have always admired and respected the man for his independent views on politics and going against the ordinary life style he lives. Then he does it again with an amazing concept to livin up the show. Jesse says he's...
WWE"S Triple thre- I mean Survivor Series.
The original branded ppv is upon us. Here are my predictions.1)Team Mickie (Mickie James, Eve Torres, Kelly Kelly, Melina, and Gail Kim) vs. Team Michelle (Michelle McCool, Jillian Hall, Beth Phoenix, Layla, and Alicia Fox)Lets start by separating the good from the bad on each team. Melina has been good, Mickie and Gail are both capable but haven't been setting the world on fire as of late and Eve and Kelly Kelly both bring the looks but that's about it. Beth is a god, Michelle McCool and Jillian Hall are both capable and Layla...
Competition
Welcome to The Daily Slam!
Back In the late 90's we were witnessing the greatest time on television for professional wrestling. The two biggest wrestling promotions were fighting for the tv ratings and creating new stars at the same time. I'm not going to get into this feud between WWF/E and WCW too much since we all know and watched these events. Now going into the 2010 decade, the WWE rules with an iron fist over...
Survivor Series
Well it's that time of year where wrestlers are separated into teams and must compete against each other (normally faces vs heels). Wait didn't that ppv just happen. Hmm..... I think it must be deja vu. These are Erickson's Survivor Series 2009 Pay Per View Predictions.
Team Mickie (Mickie James, Eve Torres, Kelly Kelly, Melina, and Gail Kim) vs. Team Michelle (Michelle McCool, Jillian Hall, Beth Phoenix, Layla, and...

Welcome to The Daily Slam!

With the Slammy Awards right around the corner I ponder on who could be win some of this year's prestigious awards. I will have a Slammy Awards Prediction post when all the categories are announced but for this article I want to reflect on one individual who has...
That Other Championship
ECW! ECW! ECW! Those chants were heard loud and clear from the audience back in the mid-90's. It was once a business that prided itself on going above and beyond for the fans. The ECW Championship was the most prestige belt in the company and has been held by some of the greatest entertainers of our time. Superstars like the first title holder Jimmy Snuka, to The Sandman, Sabu, Raven Taz, and even RVD represented the gold to the current and reformed version of WWE ECW with champs such as Bobby Lashley, CM Punk, and Chritstian.
