WWE Musings

A Good Saturday to You, Enthusiasts.   Enjoying your weekend? We get a bit of bonus action ahead of the Royal Rumble. When I think about it…I kinda like it. Should every major PPV be marked with a Saturday Night: Main Event ? Give the non-paying public a taste? Show them how far things have come? Perhaps that’s been the endgame. I was never really thinking about it (^_~)   So, I’m looking at a couple matches tonight. They gotta keep to that tight schedule so, let me just do the same. The first match that has me intrigued is the Sheamus vs. Bron Breakker match for the Intercontinental Title. They’ve made it clear that this is the one that Sheamus has yet to win. Could it be tonight?   However, Bron Breakker is fast establishing himself as a force to be reckoned with and he has only just begun. Sheamus is on the decline whether anyone likes it or not. Does he have it in him and if so…who really cares? Now, I don’t feel that way but that is the Devil’s Advocate t...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? Welcome to a new week. So, there’s quite a bit in motion/going on. I would say it was a successful weekend for WWE and AEW seems 2 making their stuff work. Shall we have a chat about it? Let’s… First up, we’ll stop in the Realm of AEW as we see Jon Moxley and Company “dial it down” a bit and decide to jump/semi-kidnap FTR. See, that’s what I’m talking about. Have some fun. Get crazy! Give us something to watch. Not sure what the endgame is exactly, but at this point, there’s time to flesh it out. I’ll be sure to check out this “epic” Fatal-4-Way getting set-up once it’s filed away. Keep things simple for now and just go out, get nuts and have fun. If it entertains, it entertains. Don’t overthink it. Most of us aren’t that invested but we will bitch if we’re not entertained. In the WWE Universe, there are a few points of discussion. The Saturday Night: Main Event went off without a hitch and it was a fine night of wrestling. No real upsets but as we all kno...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   Here’s to the reboot of Saturday Night: Main Event! I have no recollection of the original but I hear that there will be a lot of nods 2 the old school presentation. I have no problem with it. Kinda looking forward to it, even though I think the 80s was the tackiest decade ever. Taste was an afterthought. I hated every second of it but, it wasn’t all bad. I’ll accept the nostalgia.   Since this is like a free PPV, I’ll have Matches of Interest, but I’ll keep it short. It’s only a 2-hour show. The first one I’m looking at is Sami Zayn vs. Drew McIntyre. I could look at the Kevin Owens vs. Cody Rhodes but that doesn’t have the stakes that Zayn vs. McIntyre does. In this case, McIntyre needs the win.   McIntyre is faux shooting interviews and moping around. He’s method acting himself and I like it. There was something missing and maybe going back home helped address it, but whatever it is, it’s working and I think he should just le...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? Enjoying your Friday? I hope so. I have some self-care plans for the weekend so, why not start now. As for the Wrestling World, there are some things we can chat about. Not much has me captivated but we can have a decent conversation nonetheless. Are you up for it? Let’s do it. First, we’ll take a brief look at the Realm of AEW to see how Jon Moxley and crew took last week’s notes. Well, this week’s efforts were definitely more entertaining, I’ll give ‘em that. Mox was slipping into…familiar tones if I may say. All I’ll add is remember the timing. Though I love to see Dean Ambrose break through, I hope Mox paces himself.  If something “epic” is in the works, not popping off too soon is critical. Unless, he manages to make that part of the whole thing. Not impossible but this is new territory. Best not to get too experimental. But do have fun and push boundaries. What I saw was fun but it could lead to “dissension”. Only go there if the story is fleshed ...
