The hilarious side of Kurt Angle returned recently in a Funny or Die video that was a spin-off on his attempt to return to the Olympics.

Best Wrestler in the Game Today
As last Thursday's Impact Wrestling ending showed, they still don't know what they're doing yet.

The back and forth between Jay Lethal and Ric Flair was not only hilarious and entertaining, it spoke to wrestling's history and its future. It went down a little over a year ago.

A Macho Man Randy Savage Tribute (video)
Last Friday I lost a piece of my childhood with the passing of the Macho Man Randy Savage. His death brought up fond memories, he was one of my favorite wrestlers growing up.
