VIDEO: WWE Hands Out Its Half Year Awards
Get the envelopes ready. At some point or another, every wrestling fan has debated their favorites with someone. It might be a match a move, a theme song, a show or something else. That’s how wrestling fandom works and there is nothing wrong with it whatsoever. It is a rite of passage for wrestling fans and now WWE is getting involved with the concept in something of an official way.
During this week’s edition of the Bump, WWE presented its semi-annual Bumpy Awards. The awards honor the best of the first six months of the year, including various wrestling and online awards.

Opinion: I can always go for something like this because you can have all kinds of debates/arguments as a result. There is no such thing as a definitive right answer in these awards, making them prime for discussion. They might not be the Slammys but they will do fine for second place. Some of these were surprises and that is where the fun from these things tends to flow, so nice job again.
