WWE Musings

Greetings Enthusiasts! Is this Friday treating you well?   I’m not complaining.   So, here we are at this Super ShowDown II and I don’t have many thoughts on it.   It’s basically exhibition again so, it’s just a matter of if this show lives up to half of its hype.   I’m not going to rundown the matches but I will comment on a few I find interesting.   So, we have a couple titles on the line with Seth Rollins facing off against Baron Corbin and Kofi Kingston up against a delusional Dolph Ziggler.   So, just looking at this, I get the feeling that the Kingston vs. Ziggler match will probably be the better of the 2.   With the Brock Lesnar clause looming over the Rollins vs. Corbin match, we can’t expect that one to be too straightforward.   I get the feeling the titles won’t change hands due to this exhibition feel though it’s boasted to be a great as a WrestleMania, I’m just not expecting all that.   They’ll have to prove it. We also have the veteran and geriatric matches

A Good Tuesday to You, Enthusiasts! Having a good time?   Hope so and if not, maybe we can change that in a little while.   So, RAW was surprisingly solid in my humble opinion and it’s not just because Matthew McConaughey was in the audience.   It’s apparent that WWE Management is taking the AEW “threat” seriously and is attempting to up its game accordingly.   So, the rumors appear to be true.    In the face of competition, they attempt to rise to the challenge.      The WWE appears to follow the tenets of Human Nature.   It only helps the product so, no complaints from me. The only real thing I felt I had to note was the 24/7 Title chase.   They tried to insert some humor into the focused bout between Ricochet and Cesaro but it seemed to break up the rhythm of a good match as opposed to stimulate the action.   They’re going to have to plot out these hijinks a little more wisely if they really want it to stick.   I know the WWE wants to throw in a “That’s life!...” sort of s

A Merry Monday to You, Enthusiasts!  The weekend treat you well?  In my case, I took it upon myself to do a little reconnaissance and took a gander at this AEW Double or Nothing PPV or you know, what I could find for free.  After viewing this, I have to double down on my statement of how the WWE doesn’t really have anything to worry about.  In my opinion, depending on whether AEW can establish themselves in the long run, AEW resembles the original TV series, Dallas so the WWE should simply counter by being Dynasty . For those of you who don’t know what I’m talking about, in the 80s the ABC network had the prime-time show Dynasty and CBS had Dallas .  They were top shows for years!  I was a little too young when they first came out but they're both on Amazon Prime if you're curious.  For the most part they were similar, both featured prominent families in the Oil Business.  The big difference was that Dynasty was the classy option while Dallas was more Blue Collar.

A Good Tuesday to You, Enthusiasts! So, RAW was fun in a very experimental sort of way which I found refreshing.   You know if you watch this stuff long enough, you begin to pick up on the patterns.   It was nice to see how they’re taking this interim time, meaning since we have a bunch of exhibitions on display currently (hard to classify Evolution just yet) they’re taking advantage and seeing what works and what doesn’t.   Lio Rush hyping Bobby Lashley via mic during the match was a great example.   Thought it was going to annoy me and it may do just that for some but I was brought around by the end of the match.   The same goes for the Tag Team action with Bobby Roode & Chad Gable dancing with The Ascension.   The Ascension’s shtick is actually starting to land.   It was nice to see.   Remember, I just call it like I see it.   If someone changes my mind, all power to them.   I love being proved wrong.   If I’m wrong, let me know.   I don’t need to be “right”.   I just see

A Good Weekend to You, Enthusiasts! So, I’m sure many of you already know what went down at the Super ShowDown but since it came on at like 2am, I wasn’t about to get up and watch, especially since I’m on vacay.   But…since I’m on vacay, I do have some time to sit down and watch so, that’s what I’m gonna do.   At 7pmPDT I’m going to sit myself down and give it a gander so, if you haven’t seen it yet or are just interested on my take for some reason, go ahead and play along on the Twitter.   ‘Tis an exhibition so, I’m not too concerned with outcomes or matches, I’m just going to see if it was “worth it” so to speak.    Anyway, tweet if you’d like.   I know everyone’s doing their own thing so, I’m not expecting any one to drop plans on a Saturday night but if you’ve got nothing to do, feel free to join the fun.   I’ll be prefacing all my tweets with “RE: #WWESSD –” because I know it’s all a done deal, just throwing in these 2¢.   Join the fun if you'd like. Enjoy Your Ni
