— It’s been absolutely freakin’ crazy w/ both traffic and news today. We’re at WrestleMania-like levels. I don’t expect things to slow down much on Tuesday with SD!/NXT and TNA iMPACT! tapings. We’ll also have post Royal Rumble and RAW news and rumors. We’re also set to get 20-30 inches of snow here in Albany, NY on Tuesday/Wednesday but we plan to be here as long as everything goes well. This is supposed to be the biggest storm in nearly a decade here. Check back in often for the latest guys and thanks for your continued support of the website!!
