I'm doing this in two parts because there's a broader point I felt I needed to make and then a more specific point with regards to what's gone on the past couple of years leading up to today's dilemma where the absence of Roman Reigns has now resulted in a situation that a lot of … Continue reading A mess of our own making- Part 1
Some thoughts on Roman Reigns
Anyone who reads my stuff here knows that I've talked a lot about Roman Reigns here, and that I'm a big fan of his. So with that, I'm typing this out as I'm still trying to grasp with his announcement that he's been battling leukemia for 11 years and now it's returned so he'll have … Continue reading Some thoughts on Roman Reigns
Reevaluating WrestleMania 34
WrestleMania 34 definitely is one of those shows that can be filed under Things That Did Not Go According to Plan. It seemed like all of us were so super hyped going in, but when it was over most of us were pretty damn deflated for a lot of different reasons. So what happened? Was … Continue reading Reevaluating WrestleMania 34
Extreme Rules Thoughts
First the quick and easy: The pre-show stuff was good. Sin Cara showed he can still go and Andrade Cien Almas is legit if you haven't watched him before he got called up. Remember though that things like he and Zelina Vega doing the tranquillo pose together during the match are going to be as … Continue reading Extreme Rules Thoughts
Money in the Bank 2018/Takeover Chicago Thoughts
Takeover Chicago Three great, match of the year candidates. The opener for the tag titles is the best tag team match I've seen this year. Orney Lorcan and Danny Burch were made, winning over and earning the respect of a crowd that was cheering the more well known heels the Undisputed Era. Ricochet and Velveteen … Continue reading Money in the Bank 2018/Takeover Chicago Thoughts
My wrestling fandom
My interest in the business was initiated with WrestleMania; as a fan of the A-Team and all the prospect of Mr. T teaming up with Hulk Hogan was too much to turn down. Which of course prompted my Dad (who is the reason spoiler alerts were created) to tell me 'it's fake, they're not really … Continue reading My wrestling fandom
Backlash 2018 Thoughts
As a lot of you said yesterday morning there wasn't a whole lot of buzz going into this one. I was getting vibes of Fastlane earlier this year when a lot of people were calling for doom and gloom and we got pleasantly surprised. This show......was not that, and got soundly trashed on social media … Continue reading Backlash 2018 Thoughts
Who’s Next?
The question that looms over the RAW roster every week in light what happened at WrestleMania is.....just who is gonna beat Brock Lesnar? With Roman Reigns having gotten two shots at him in a month and not winning, after a year long buildup, me and most of you seem to have no idea. And sometimes … Continue reading Who’s Next?
Who’s to blame for Roman Reigns?
And where does he ultimately end up? So here we are, with WrestleMania 34 and the Greatest Royal Rumble in the books, and instead of some of us celebrating a new Universal Champion while others complain about him, we sit here with Brock Lesnar still as champion and Roman Reigns in limbo. It really seems … Continue reading Who’s to blame for Roman Reigns?
Running the Numbers on Roman Reigns
This one is short and sweet. One of the biggest complaints you see on social media about Roman Reigns is that no one cares about him, and thus he's being shoved down our throats. And this complaint has been largely immune to counter arguments because even when you try to state some facts like views … Continue reading Running the Numbers on Roman Reigns
