With WrestleMania 35 in the books, it is now a new “season” for the WWE. The big event that takes place after? The Superstar Shake-Up. Think of it as a WWE Draft where either superstars or tag team go from Raw to SmackDown and vice versa. We can even see some potential call ups from NXT in the Shake-Up. On […]

With the WWE Superstar Shake-Up coming up, Mike DeSanto joined the show once again to make predictions for the event. We also quickly go over WrestleMania 35 and discuss their favorite matches. […]
WrestleMania 35 is in the books and right away I’ll tell you. It could be in the conversation as one of the best WrestleMania’s WWE has produced in recent years and could be in the conversation as on of the best of all-time. Time was the only concern here. The kickoff show started at 5 pm and the historic women’s […]
We are finally here. WrestleMania 35. After NXT put together a classic TakeOver event Friday, WWE will try to one-up them in their biggest event of the year. 16 matches will take place tonight, which is a WrestleMania record and every title on the main roster will be on the line. It will be a long event but with the […]
If you are a wrestling fan then you obviously know about WrestleMania. It is the Super Bowl in the world of professional wrestling. There have been 34 WrestleManias with hundreds of matches with memorable (and sometimes unmemorable moments). In the spirit of WrestleMania 35 being tonight, I decided to share my 10 favorite WrestleMania matches of all time. Some of the […]
Last night, NXT put on another excellent show in TakeOver: New York. WWE’s “developmental” brand continues to show that they can put on quality performances. It was a great start to WrestleMania weekend. In tradition, five matches were on the card but for the first time in TakeOver history, all five matches were title matches. Breaking the tradition I did […]
WrestleMania 35 is only a few days away and much like the other major WWE pay-per-views, NXT will have its own event prior to that. Traditionally, TakeOvers happen on Saturday night but WWE switched things up and moved it up to Friday night. This was in order to have the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony Saturday. The event will be held […]
Yesterday, I posted the list of the 10 best WrestleMania winning percentages. In the spirit of WrestleMania and putting countless hours in the spreadsheet I made for this (don’t judge me), I decided to post the 10 lowest winning percentages in WrestleMania history. Here is a quick recap of how the list was made, similar to yesterday’s post. I only […]

It is a packed show where we talk about the MLB so far after one […]
Since it’s creation in 1985, over 400 wrestlers have participated in WrestleMania. In the spirit of ‘Maina season and being a stat-nerd, I decided to calculate each wrestlers record on the big stage. Here is a quick overview of how the list was made. I only counted Wrestlers who have competed in at LEAST FIVE matches. All matches (single, tag, […]
Episode #8 of The SlickBack KickBack Report is a short one today. After a 12-day hiatus, I am back. The reason for this one is probably the worst excuse ever. Regardless of that, I give a life update and discusses why April is one of the best months in all of sports. Future episodes of the podcast are also quickly […]
With WrestleMania being the biggest show in WWE’s calendar year, the company does whatever they can to make it memorable. One of the ways they do that is by creating an over the top entrance area. We have seen plenty of fantastic stage designs at The Show of Shows. Some referencing to where in those particular years WrestleMania was located. With 34 […]
If you know me you know that the Tony Hawk series is one of my favorite video games of all time. I never was good at skating but the games themselves got me into the skating culture for a while. During the 2000s, Tony Hawk combined skating and gaming with a successful run of titles. With that being said, there […]
A while back, I had a goal in mind that I one day wanted to start my own podcast. I have been listening to so many for years I thought to myself that I wanted to do this one day to continue building my brand. One of my goals for the New Year was to finally start on up and […]
