Genesis

Welcome to 4 Moves of Doom, our little blog on all things pro wrestling. Starting off our first post, I would like to thank you for taking the time to read this and hope you enjoy. While this blog is a collection of four different writers each with their own style and backgrounds, we all have the shared love of wrestling in common. Even though that shared love can lead to some conflicts over who deserves a push (in our humble opinions) or who should be the rightful winner of our Royal Rumble pool (I drew Batista fair and square.) But one thing we can agree on this, we have a passion for sports entertainment. I should not have be that guy who points out the obvious but it’s the first post and my job so I'll be that guy. Yes we know wrestling is scripted. Yes, we know the matches are predetermined. Yes we know it is a soap opera for men about half naked men pinning each other to the mat. And frankly WE DO NOT CARE. It’s entertaining, it’s exciting, it’s action-packed, and it’s the greatest show on earth. I don't dislike ballet because it is rehearsed, I don't dislike opera because it is scripted, and as for the homo-eroticism, I think the Greeks and Romans have a few thousand year head start on that one. Now, I will put my soap box away for now and get back to the task at hand. I foresee this blog being a great place for people to come and read about wrestling whether they used to watch Hulk Hogan in the 80's but grew out of it or used to watch the Attitude Era and stopped for a while or are brand new to the wide, wacky, world of wrestling. Hopefully this blog will have a little bit of everything from podcasts to reviews to opinion pieces and any and everything in between. Anything can happen in the WWE, and anything can happen on 4 Moves of Doom.

Humbly,
Kyle.
