Long story short, the last week has proven to me that I need a better wrestling news site to go to. While the majority of stuff I see on this forum, I had been going to 411Mania for years now and relied on them for a lot of things. But the last week has opened my eyes to the bias some of the "reporters" on the site have and the obvious lack of sources and care they actually have. I'd list examples but I'm just baffled at how awful that site has gotten, especially with people falling for the bullshit they've spread lately.
Anyway, what's a good reliable free website that I can get information from? Also, one that won't give me viruses (looking at you PWInsider)

This site is best, mainly for reactions.
I used to use WrestleZone, but some of their news is more trash.

I was pretty annoyed at 411Mania earlier today for blatantly misquoting the Reigns interview with Sam Roberts, only to find 10 minutes ago that they just copied/pasted it from Wrestlezone. Sad thing is most people don't realize it's a misquote and aren't listening to the interview so they're just mad at a quote that isn't complete. Needless to say, WrestleZone has never been my cup of tea either. The forum's always good I guess, but the condensed news site always has its purpose.

I stopped going to newz sites within a couple of months of signing up here. If it's got legs to if, it finds its way here, and if it doesn't then it's not worth reading in the first place.

Wrestling news sites are worthless if you frequent this board. Anything that's relevant will be posted here and discussed...at length...to an almost certainly abnormal degree.
The only downside of getting your news here. Having to skip over the landmines that are Roman Reigns topics.

I find this place is better than any news site. You will get both sides of the argument. Not everyonewill agree but 99% of the people on here are pretty respectful so you do get multiple view on subjects.

I get my news from here. I do go to Gerweck for Raw/PPV reviews when I have to work, because it's easier to just read straight through a card then read a thirty page thread.

I just wait until it's posted here or on another wrestling site I visit. I never understand why people pay subscription wrestling sites as any important news finds its way to wrestling forums anyway.

I check WrestleZone because they tend to have the easiest format and none of their stuff is paid for. Then I take it with a grain of salt, and check here to see if it has any validity.
We're all pretty big supporters of WrestleTaint.gov here, too.

Any wrestling newz site that frequently reports "news" with terms like "appears to be" and "might" and "could" and "of course this could change" ... is, of course, spot on and has really good sources.

Wrestletaint.gov has been dropping in quality since their catering credentials that got them backstage were revoked a few months back after people started realizing they weren't bringing in any food.

Blaming Brodus Clay no longer being a viable out.

good luck with that.
all wrestling news is very tabloid like, even the better reporters like Meltzer still rely on "unknown sources that totally really exist, honestly"
