SmackDown Helps Us Prep for New Year's....

  How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? Hope your Christmas went well if you celebrate. For all others, a Happy New Year to you. I hope you’re enjoying Winter or Summer if you're in the Southern Hemisphere. I’ve been light on the Wrestling World due to all the festivities and family bonding. Yet, there are a couple things we can chat about. Are you up for it? Let’s get into it. So, WWE Management is supposedly kicking around some ideas for matches for John Cena and Logan Paul came up as a possible opponent. Word is that no one likes the idea of this at WrestleMania ‘cause that’s a sucky way to go out. Personally, I don’t mind the idea of Cena vs. Paul but it doesn’t need to be at Mania. It doesn’t even have to be on a PPV. I would be fine with it at a Fallout show. And I’d like to see Cena get the best of him but due to being a seasoned veteran. Not because of any physical prowess or what have you. He should just “out wrestle” Paul. Paul can talk his shit and all that. Lean on Cena being ol...

RAW Bids Us a Merry Christmas!....

  How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   It’s a cold one in Southern California but nothing that those used to snow couldn’t handle. As for the Wrestling World, there’s some stuff going on but what caught my eye is more administrative. Some insight on how 2025 is gonna go. Are you up for a brief discussion? Let’s see where it goes.   We’ll stay in the WWE Universe for now as AEW’s stuff appears to be percolating. There’s an “update” on Brock Lesnar’s status going around making it seem like he’s on an unofficial retirement. Given the dirt that came up on him, it’s not surprising. You see how everyone is getting theirs for past unsavory behavior. I think he would have gotten more clemency if he was a more approachable person. His rep, in general, isn’t the best so, when dirt comes out, it’s easy to close the book on him. I don’t really think he’s needed anymore, to be honest. There was a time he served a purpose but now that WWE is finding a more engaging stride, Lesnar can...

SmackDown Figures You Probably Have the Time...

Happy Friday, Enthusiasts! The Holidays treating you all right?   I really can ’ t complain.   These are good times.   In any case, RAW believe or not, could have been a lot worse.   Yes, Lana got us to grit our teeth in a bad way but it really could have been way more phoned in.   They looked like they went and had some fun out there.   It was good to see Mojo Rawley.   I know he ’ s an odd cat to place but I think he deserves a chance.   I think they need to double back towards humor, though.   It could be a “ tough guys ” humor if it ’ s any consolation but I like this guy.   He ’ s like the blue collar side of it.   Always need those guys to actually do the work, know what I mean. But who really gets marks for Monday night is Samoa Joe.   Loved how he played along and honestly, I think that ’ s a good way to segue the older guys out of rotation, if they ’ re good on the mic that is.   I don ’ t doubt he ’ s...

It's the Holidays...I'll Get to RAW When I Get to It...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? I’m sure many of you are like me and are enjoying the Holidays.   This being Christmas Eve, I’m not expecting much action but due to my schedule, this is a good day for me to catch up.   As I figured, I was just too caught up with family to get any wrestling action in but, I’m back in town now and got some time to kill.   Perhaps those in the same boat are up to some review action.   Looks like the WWE Universe doesn’t have much going on either, which is to be expected.   I hope everyone is making good use of the down time. ‘Tis the Season and all that.   Though there isn’t much going on, there’s speculation circulating about the Royal Rumble but as I said, I don’t think any of us are really going to focus on that until after the Holidays.   Right now, I think all we really have to look for, if one watches at all, is whether they can keep this entertaining.   This is a good space to experiment but the caveat o...

SmackDown Says, "Happy Holidays!..." as They Deal with TLC Fallout...

Happy Friday & Happy Holidays, Enthusiasts! How are you doing?   Well, I hope a lot of you are like me and have pretty much checked out for the Holidays.   I gotta head out of town tonight.   Gonna see if I can catch the live feed but if I can’t, I’ll be catching up with SmackDown over the weekend.   RAW will definitely be picked up on the flip when I get back in town.   I suggest you all feel free to allow the usual routine to slip as we cater to friends and family during this festive time.   Let’s remember where the true priorities lie, shall we.   Tis the season and all that. Anyway, RAW wasn’t bad this week.   It did what it did and it felt as if people were given some room to breathe, so to speak.   It seemed looser and freer, like it got let out in the seams a little bit.   Perhaps the WWE have decided to ease up during this Holiday time as well.   I don’t see it hurting.   The roster has gotta be kinda c...
