WWE Musings

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? Everything going okay? Can’t say much is going on in my world but it should pick up soon. In any case, when it comes to the Wrestling World, there’s not all that much going on so this post should be brief. Let’s get to it. So, all that’s going on continues to be speculation. Given CM Punk’s release from AEW, his partner in crime, Ace Steel, was also let go for a second time. That’s gotta sting a little for Punk as his antics trickled down to someone else. I’m not sure if that will be a factor should WWE consider bringing Punk back. I guess it will be all contingent upon the argument Punk and Steel come up with outside of Punk’s guilt. We shall see what comes to pass. In the WWE Universe, the WWE Superstar Spectacle was held in India earlier today. Given the card, no surprises happened but it was a new experience for most of those tapped to perform. John Cena posing with The Great Khali is going around. So, Cena has become an unofficial global ambassador. No

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   Enjoying Labor Day if you’re able? I can’t say that I mind it. It’s a relaxing afternoon for me. Just about to have a bit of tea 😉 So, there’s some stuff to talk about, isn’t there. Let’s get into it.   So, it happened. CM Punk was released from his AEW contract and we wonder where he may end up next. Naturally, all eyes are on WWE and I feel that’s a natural conclusion.   Whether this is all real or not, either way, AEW has made it clear it doesn’t really know how to deal with Punk. He’s got a rep in the industry so Tony Khan should have taken him on knowing he’d be a challenge. To me, this looks like Khan simply didn’t have the experience or clout in the industry to hold his own counter to Punk.   Given Punk’s disposition, it seems to me that you’re going have words with him from time to time. If you are not secure in yourself, you’re not going to get the man’s respect. I wouldn’t doubt Punk views Khan as a bit of kid still so, why list

Evening, Enthusiasts! So, didn't care for the House of Horrors did we.  Well, like I always say in these matters, either stick to the general wrestling format or go ahead and see if STARZ or HBO will option a wrestling show.  Trying to blend the 2 genres will tend to have this sort of effect.  We the Audience have trouble suspending our disbelief if the fight's going to be pre-taped.  If the fights are going to be taped, might as well just drop the pretense, get buff guys and girls who can act and script the premium primetime.  That's just my humble opinion. So, how will tonight's RAW recoup last night's losses?  *Shrug* Who knows.  If we know how this train rolls, it'll probably follow up with plenty of the usual but keeping to real time.  Could even make more sense seeing how there is a blatant mis-step to account for.  Takes a mistake to learn the lesson.  Funny tweets get retweeted and Favorites come but once in a lifetime 😉 See You in a Bit, -Nic

Greetings, Enthusiasts!  We return to RAW to see if there is in fact any “fallout” from Payback and I’d have to say that it’s more or less business as usual.  RAW was a mixed bag again, as it tends to be, but it seems to rely a bit more on “story” this time out as opposed to wrestling and be it kayfabe or not, many of our usual players are mildly injured.  This may have had something to do with the truncated, actual wrasslin’ content but for whatever the reason we concentrated on the non-wrestling action this time out and start to see whether we’re interested enough to partake of the next scheduled event, The Elimination Chamber. We open in Richmond , Virginia with The Authority leaders back as Stephanie McMahon and Triple H walk out to greet us.  Stephanie is happy to be back and is glad that we are happy she’s back too.  Well, while she was away, it looks like not too much outside of the usual went on.  She returns to Seth Rollins still holding the Heavyweight Champions
