GIVING IT TO YOU RAW…What Happened Last Night (Mar. 30th, 2015)

Image
How’s it going, Enthusiasts? So, the biggest show of the year has come and gone and now we’re back to “real time” in the WWE Universe.  As after every Pay-Per-View, we revisit and perhaps reverse what was done the night before on  RAW and last night was more or less on par with that.  We got some introductions and a lot of the same ol’, same ol’ and though I think the majority of the show went well, there are some residual issues that the WWE has to face whether it likes it or not and circumstance would behoove them to find a solution ASAP as opposed to wait until the bottom falls out. We open the night in San Jose , California and not too surprisingly, Mr. Brock “Gun Jack” Lesnar makes an appearance with Paul Heyman at his side.  Can you imagine what this could be about?  Yep, it’s that smarmy Seth Rollins and his punk-ass grab at the Heavyweight Title.  Lesnar isn’t too happy about it, none too happy at all.  He wants that punk-ass bitch out here so he can invoke his rema

WRESTLEMANIA EXTRAVAGANZA!!! – What Happened Last Night (Mar. 29th, 2015)

How are you doing, Enthusiasts? Did you like this year’s WrestleMania?   To be honest, I enjoyed it thoroughly.   After all the misguided efforts, the WWE finally just got their shit together and put on a great show.   I wasn’t really disappointed with anything. True, a few segments were a bit hokey but, what are ya gonna do?   It can’t all be gold, I guess.   Given what we had to wade through to get here, I felt that I certainly got my $9.99 worth and that all is not lost.   Now, where the WWE goes from here is anyone’s guess but, hopefully they learn from their blatant mistakes and simply keep things interesting from here on out. I actually didn’t know that the pre-show would air at 3pm .   I was thinking it was going to start at 4pm so, I actually missed the Tag Team Fatal-4-Way but caught it this morning.   Personally, I think it was a good move to have this and the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal kick things off. They were full on melees that were hard to keep

Didn't Think I'd Miss WRESTLEMANIA, Did You...

'Sup Enthusiasts, Yes, I had to take some time off and almost thought I'd have to end my blog for good but, it appears I've received a proverbial stay of execution (^_~) And on top of that, I was just too curious to not see what happens tonight.  As we've seen, the lead up has had a lot to be desired at best and I'm still not sure what that means in the end.  Whatever the outcome, Enthusiasts, remember who is truly at fault.  Everyone we see out there tonight is merely doing as told. Can we fault them for doing their jobs? Yet, we can fault the company that made them do it.  Let's rejoice if they adequately entertain and remove ourselves if they do not. Lay blame where it deserves to be.  In the meantime, though let's also keep in mind that this is entertainment above all else.  Let's have some fun!  I'll be live tweeting.  Join in won't you?  Funny tweets get retweeted and I still keep a lookout for that gem of a favorite. See You in a Bit

Blog Hiatus...

Greetings Enthusiasts,  Though last week's Smackdown was considerably  better than RAW, noticed the internets was somewhat quiet aside from WWE self-promotion, yet I do feel we got some major hints about how things will proceed.  We'll see if they do it right. Nevertheless, I'll be taking a brief hiatus.  Going to take a little vacation and see some sights.  Since my schedule is loose at the moment, I'm not sure I'll catch RAW .  But, if I do, I'll post. Just can't say at the moment.  Have a good one in the meantime. See You Soon, -Nicole Alexis (^_~)

SMACKDOWN, Anyone?...

Well, the spoilers tell an interesting tale and I hope it all goes together more fluidly than this week's RAW.   As for the internets, the WWE is doing its job of making it look like they put on a good show yet as for actual fan posts, they seem sparse at the moment so I can't get a clean read. After that RAW, I'm sure plenty of people found something else to watch or do tonight. Just gotta tune in and see it for myself.  Won't you join me?  Funny tweets get retweeted and one of these days I expect get a surprise favorite (^_~). See You in a Bit, -Nicole Alexis.

GIVING IT TO YOU RAW…What Happened Last Night (Mar. 9th, 2015)

By the looks of this week’s RAW I would say that we probably won’t like WrestleMania, but keep in mind that may be the point.   That’s the beauty of the concept of Kayfabe and the WWE Universe.   We all know that they fly by the seat of their pants sometimes.   No one knows that more than the WWE and so why not account for it by keeping it constantly loosely stitched and thinly veiled.   It will be by default and so, when disaster strikes, you can just say it didn’t or that it was “meant to”. You gotta give it to ‘em. It may be the very thing that keeps it alive. Well, since RAW seemed thrown together at best last night, I won’t get into it with too much depth.   To be honest, I didn’t pay all that much attention but, saw enough to be able to honestly comment.   I’d say that’s a crux for them but…meh…get the feeling they have bigger problems to iron out at the moment (^_~) In any case we have Seth Rollins and Randy Orton come out and have a chat with the rest of The Aut

Who's Feeling RAW Tonight?....

Evening, Enthusiasts!  So, the march to WrestleMania continues and I still have no clue as to how it will all pan out.  I guess we should enjoy the suspense but you know this WWE Universe.  It doesn't always fully make sense, does it.  We'll see if they keep to the primary directive in business and just do something that works and makes them money.  They can't really afford WrestleMania to fall flat or implode.  I'll watch it all go down, hopefully it's not in flames.  Funny tweets get retweeted and still looking for that "favorite".  Let's see what they got. See You in a Bit, -Nicole Alexis (^_~)

PUTTIN’ THAT SMACKDOWN. What Happened Last (Tuesday) Night [Mar. 5th, 2015]

Image
Well Enthusiasts, Smackdown did what it could, given what it has to work with.   With many of who worked RAW seemingly taking a night off, a reduced staff took to the job of keeping things moving as we head into WrestleMania.   I wasn’t impressed with anything but it was a solid show.   I get the feeling that we really won’t get anything too exciting from Smackdown until the end of the month which makes perfect sense.   Out of respect for the brand, I feel the WWE will be most itself at this time keeping Smackdown second fiddle to RAW .   And so, it will be up to RAW to set the pace and raise the bar each week so that We the Audience are at least curious enough to want to see how this all will actually play out. The evening opens in Washington D.C. and Dolph Ziggler comes out to greet us.   His gripe, the Intercontinental Title: he like so many others has not gotten a rematch for the title he lost.   That’s one of the reasons he stole it.   His plan to solve this?   Bei
