Wrestling news and results? WWE star Hulk Hogan the greatest wrestler of all time. None of the wrestlers in history would have made the impact he did. And for that reason, along with many others, he is the greatest of all time. Many may argue my list, but I think it’s a fair estimation. Obviously, fans of the newer generation may be asking where their stars are. But, one must memorize that many of the newer generations are still carving their paths, collecting their accolades, and perfecting their craft. One day, they too may describe the greatest of all time.
Before becoming a professional wrestler, Big Swole worked in the Air Force as a fire truck mechanic. She chose to leave the Air Force when she was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, and she was told she would never be able to have kids or participate in high impact sports. However, Big Swole has proven her ability to defy all expectations, and she credits the Air Force for teaching her the importance of discipline. Although Big Swole was recently suspended for kidnapping Dr. Britt Baker, there’s no doubt she will continue to be a strong competitor in the women’s division.
Wrestling occurred in several styles throughout Europe in the Middle Ages. The first recorded English match was held in London early in the 13th century. In England and Brittany a form of jacket wrestling commonly called Cornwall and Devon (see Cornish wrestling) survives from at least the 4th or 5th century. Wrestling as a martial skill was taught to the knights of the Holy Roman Empire, and wrestling instruction books appeared in manuscript before the introduction of printing and thereafter in print. Mongolian loose wrestling, introduced to India after the Mughal conquest of 1526, has survived in both India and Pakistan. As the modern era began, the English kings Henry VIII and Charles II and the French king Francis I were notable patrons of wrestling.
WWE’s TV ratings in the USA has seen a sharp decline in recent times. Ratings for WWE’s weekly shows have consistently gone down over the last two decades. The ratings dip has become more critical with each passing year. Recently, Raw’s ratings plummeted alarmingly as the July 13th episode of Raw averaged 1.561 million viewers. However, there’s another side to this story. While WWE’s TV ratings have gone down, content consumption over other mediums has hit record highs. A report by wwe.com stated: WWE set WrestleMania Week viewership records with more than 967 million video views across the company’s digital and social platforms including WWE Network, WWE.com, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Snapchat, an increase of 20 percent year-over-year.

Often regarded as one of the best professional wrestlers of all time, the 2000s represented the rebirth of HBK following a highly-publicised battle with addiction. Michaels overcame a career-threatening back injury to emerge from his first retirement for a feud with real-life best friend Triple H back in 2002. The HeartBreak Kid went on to enjoy memorable rivalries with Chris Jericho and John Cena while he also reformed D-Generation X. Yet perhaps his most notable contribution of the decade remains his successive WrestleMania match of the year clashes against The Undertaker that led to his second retirement from the ring.
