Happy Money in the Bank, Enthusiasts! It’s kind of a weird time so, how to approach this is a little lost on me so, I’m just gonna keep it simple. That’s what you’re supposed to do, right? I’ll be honest. I’m only looking at the Money in the Bank Matches but I’ll give Honorable Mention to Roman Reigns and LA Knight. They get opening duties and that alone speaks volumes. Personally, I’m thinking it gets DQ’d somehow. I hope Knight at least gets some respectable time in. Though, he’s at the end of career, doesn’t mean he can’t be a contender. However, would he actually be?  It’s possible that Knight can win but it’d have to be a fair fight. In that case, I don’t mind interference. We can safely assume this game is rigged. So, how does Knight save face? I’m expecting interference from someone like Solo Sikoa. He could be so about overtaking Roman Reigns, he loses the plot. Yeah, Reigns “saved him” but maybe he likes how 946 rolls? Ain’t nobody safe! Maybe that’s what it takes to take ...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   Happy Friday! This wasn’t a bad week for me but it’s just nice to have a couple days to relax. Well, this weekend will have me occupied but at least not with the usual work. As for the Wrestling World, I would say it was a fairly quiet week. Nothing dropped my jaw and given the recent happenings, I kinda appreciate it. That said, this post should be to the point so, I won’t keep you long.   We’ll start in the Realm of AEW who generally went on a field trip this week. They took themselves to France and got to experience the joy that is the French Crowd. Per usual, my focus was on the Riders of Death. Though I am not going to speak directly on The Future for the rest of this month, that doesn’t mean I’m not monitoring its progress.   I noticed that PAC has been “canonized” as they appear to have started to initiate their entrances by placing a chair and towel in his honor. Jon Moxley even went so far as to perform a brief prayer be...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   Welcome to a new week. There’s not too much going on in the Wrestling World so I shouldn’t go on for too long but I won’t limit myself either. This is like my stream of consciousness blog so, I’ll talk about whatever comes to mind but at the same time, I don’t want to bore anyone who does swing through. I’ll keep to the point, whatever it ends up being.   In the rogue City-State of MLW, there were some interesting action to say the least. The beauty of not watching live means you can fast forward through undesirable bits and that will be any segments including Matt Riddle for me. That said, I didn’t watch much of the opening but I know that Riddle and Karrion Kross are slated for Tag Team action this week. I’ll watch the match but I’m not sitting through anything else with him in it. That’s how I’ll boycott here.   As for the standouts, I got a look at Stardom’s offering in H.A.T.E who are comprised of Rina and Saya Kamitani. The...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   Finding some sense of peace? Yeah, it’s going to take some time. We lost a good one. As we all know, life must go on and the Wrestling World is no different. Nevertheless, there isn’t much to report yet, I took look at AEW’s Tribute Show and have some thoughts on how they might proceed and so, let’s just get into it. I shouldn’t take up too much of your time.   The Realm of AEW turned this week’s Dynamite into a tribute show for PAC who we now know as Benjamin Satterley and I have to say I had no idea how much of an impact he had. He seems to have had a “Clark Kent” quality to him in a way. In his day-to-day life, he seemed quiet and mild mannered. Very sweet and humble and just a great person to have around. If you didn’t know what he did for a living, you’d might have thought he was an Olympic Weightlifter or something. You would never have guessed he transformed into the Bastard PAC on a weekly basis.   His loss gut wrenched ...

How Are You Doing, Enthusiasts?   This week starts off on a dreadful note. As you all know Benjamin Satterley, better known as PAC or Neville for those who never watched AEW, has passed. To say I’m shocked is an absolute understatement and the IWC is reeling . Finally, some details are coming out about his passing and they don’t provide much solace other than it’s looking like it wasn’t a suicide but it does allude to something physiological was not right.   Early reports are stating that Satterley was found unresponsive in a car outside a restaurant outside of Chicago. It sounds like he was found by restaurant employees and the authorities were then called to the scene. From what I can gather, it sounds like EMTs were unable to revive him.   I’m a little surprised he was alone. I’m not sure how late this was and I’ve read that he often travels back to England so, perhaps this is his own after-show ritual. It just paints a more realistic picture. Never forget ...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   Welcome to the weekend. Well, most of us know that this weekend is essentially for AEW as their All Out PPV is set for this Saturday. Meanwhile, WWE will be placing the final pieces for Money in the Bank down for the next couple of weeks. There’s not anything too exciting going on. A few talking points here and there so this post shouldn’t go for too long. Let’s get into it so we can get to our own pursuits.   We’re going to start in the rogue city-state of MLW this time around. Hearing that they finally got a TV deal with Tubi, I decided to check it out. It’s only an hour after all. It’s definitely low-rent programming but personally, I still like their content more than AEW’s. Something about the no-frills, outcast sensibility resonates with me. This week’s standouts came from the 日本人女たち called ヘト (H.A.T.E.) if I heard them right. 全部は日本語で , でも面白かったです。 They’re charismatic and mean. What else could you ask for? Shotzi helped introduce th...
