WWE Musings

A Merry Monday to You, Enthusiasts! So, I wouldn’t say that Stomping Grounds was a disaster but it definitely wasn’t what I was expecting.   But, it wasn’t all bad, to be honest.   Though, notice must be taken at how the Kick-off Show match for the Cruiserweight Title was the best match of the evening.   “Hijinks” appeared to get in the way of most of the show action.   This is too bad because it was clear that people were trying out there but I don’t know…maybe Management was trying a bit too hard on this one.   Hopefully, they realize this and bring this back to basics.   So tonight, we have the Fallout and there should be plenty.   Word is that the plan is to set-up a Mixed Tag Match with Lacey Evans & Baron Corbin against Seth Rollins & Becky Lynch at Extreme Rules.   Now, last night’s main event was one of the more cringe-worthy matches of the night due to this angle.   I personally feel that wrestlers’ real relationships should be kept in the Promos.   It makes f

A Scintillating Sunday to You Enthusiasts! At least, that is the hope.   We are gathered today for the inaugural PPV, Stomping Grounds.   As you can see, the theme is supposed to be an evening full of “Ass-Kicketry” as everyone comes together to leave their foot in it!   Now, the question is who will actually do that.   There are a lot of titles on the line so expect a lot of people to be “thinking” out there.   The prime directive will be winning or retaining the title, except where that is a non-issue.   The few places that could be relevant are the match between Drew McIntyre and Roman Reigns.   This is a “Platinum Hoss Fight” if I’ve ever seen one so they’re going to have to manage just that and surprise us with just how much of a beat-down it is.   Now, you know me.    I’m not down for blood but if they get creative with how they kick each other’s ass, they may just get the shock of the night by being the match of the night.   Don’t be surprised if this one opens.

Greetings Enthusiasts! How’s this Tuesday going for you?   Meh, I’ve had better and I’ve had worse.   No point in dwelling.   Anyway, RAW did its job and performed the set-up.   M aybe someone gave them a pep talk before the show but everyone seemed ready to play and that was fun.   I respect and welcome the effort.   I was saying how it seemed like they weren’t having fun out there and my point is, what’s the point of this if the talent is miserable?   Who wants to watch downtrodden performers?   You want excitement and enthusiasm.   Well, we got a bit of that last night and now SmackDown has to take the shot set before them and hopefully get a win. To do that, we have Xavier Woods attempting to dissect Dolph Ziggler’s beef in the ring.   And Bayley will head back to SmackDown with Alexa Bliss to share “A Moment of Bliss”.   Not sure how blissful it will be but we can certainly give it a shot.    Since that’s not much to go on, SmackDown will have to be clever in deliverin

A Merry Monday to You, Enthusiasts! Did you have a good weekend?    Mine was better than expected but very low-key.   Nothing too exciting to report at all.   In any case, we gather tonight to witness the Go-Home show for the new PPV, Stomping Grounds.   So, since this is a new one, they’re going to have to go out and prove this is worth keeping. So far, it’s full of title matches so it could be a good place to switch up the landscape.    The question will be, for better or worse?   It’s hard to say.   I have no real speculation at present.   All I’m gonna say is that it’s up to them to make this interesting and tonight’s the night to start fanning these flames. As for action, it looks like they’ll have themselves a Fatal-5-Way to see who gets to battle Samoa Joe for the US Title.   We also get to find out who guests referees for the Baron Corbin vs. Seth Rollins title match.   I think I read in the Comments Section of some site somewhere someone suggesting John Cena popping u
