It's been a while since I've done one of these, and with 'Mania being around the corner I figured I'd get back on the old bicycle. WrestleMania 6 was the first one that I watched live, on something called closed circuit TV. Pay per view was alive and well but the WWF decided to show … Continue reading Retro Recap – WrestleMania 6
Music Review – Gang Starr: One of the Best Yet
One of the Best Yet is the seventh and likely final album from rap group Gang Starr, who were one of the best (see what I did there) second tier acts of the 90s. And by second tier I'm talking commercially, not talent wise. DJ Premier is one of the greatest hip hop producers of all … Continue reading Music Review – Gang Starr: One of the Best Yet
State of the WWE Women’s Division
I got inspired to do this by Becky Lynch's suggestion that the name 'Men's' and 'Women's' be taken off of the top singles titles on each brand. Personally I found the whole 'remove the distinction' thing to be a solution in search of a problem, one that doesn't really fix any of the issues or … Continue reading State of the WWE Women’s Division
The NY 50
This is a fun little exercise that I've partaken in for the second year in a row. The NY 50 is a top 50 tanking of WWE wrestlers across brands (Raw, Smackdown, NXT, 205 Live) based on ring work. All of us who are participating submit our own list and then it gets compiled into … Continue reading The NY 50
Movie Review – Star Wars: the Rise of Skywalker
I went through a few different 'final chapter' movies in 2019 to prepare for this one: Back to the Future III, The Matrix Revolutions and of course Return of the Jedi (which isn't a final chapter any more but at the time it came out it was). Then I gave my thoughts on Avengers: Endgame. … Continue reading Movie Review – Star Wars: the Rise of Skywalker
My Own Skywalker Saga
So the work of finishing the Skywalker Saga is all done. Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker is in the theaters and killing it at the box office, much to chagrin of some loud dissenters who have been a thing going back to the prequel trilogy, and now the future of Star Wars that does not … Continue reading My Own Skywalker Saga
WWE Live Fall Tour 2019 Results
A month ago the WWE Live Tour was in town so I checked it out. The Summer show I went to was a RAW show and this one was for Smackdown so we get a different cast of characters this time. Smackdown Tag Team Title Match: New Day - Big and Kofi (c) vs The … Continue reading WWE Live Fall Tour 2019 Results
What about ACH?
It's been over a month now, and everything is still changing rapidly even as I type this out (I started this back when he first showed us the T-shirt design). My own opinion has been fluid and everchanging as well so if you're looking for me to have some definitive assessment........that's just not happening, and … Continue reading What about ACH?
Time to Go
Jim Cornette absolutely stepped in it this week when he said during the most recent episode of NWA Power that Trevor Murdoch was so tough he could ride through Ethiopia with a bucket of fried chicken..........yeahhhhh, that's no good. It went over about as well as you may think it did, so it's no shocker … Continue reading Time to Go
MLW Superfight Recap
This was the first pay per view outing for Major League Wrestling (MLW), one of the smaller wrestling companies out there making it's way alongside Impact, Ring of Honor, and the restarted NWA. I started watching MLW a few months ago and found it to be mostly just fine with a few really interesting people. … Continue reading MLW Superfight Recap
