Survivor Series / War Games - SmackDown Fallout 2024

  How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? Enjoying your Friday? I’m doing that the best I can as well. So, there isn’t that much going on in the Wrestling World that’s worth reporting, in my opinion, so this should be a short post but we can have a brief conversation. Ready? Let’s do it. The interesting bit of news that caught my eye was an admission from Trish Stratus of late. She’s apparently a fan of Nia Jax and feels that once she’s “ragdolled” by her, Stratus can retire happily. I don’t see why that can’t happen in the near future.  I know Jax has gotten flack for throwing ladies around but that’s what you bring women like her in for. I never got the hate. To me, the smaller ladies weren’t built for the gig in general. You need some meat on you if you’re going to be taking bumps. If someone got broke there wasn’t enough meat in my opinion. Perhaps they shouldn’t have been in the match with her at all, in that case. It’s old news now but we’ll see what the future holds. So, that brin...

SmackDown Follows the New Course to War Games / Survivor Series...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? Happy Friday! So, it’s not the most exciting week. There’s stuff going on but nothing setting the world on fire. This should be a fairly short post, so if you have a few minutes to spare, feel free to continue to read through. Let’s see what’s caught my eye. We’ll stop first in the Realm of AEW as the Moxley Takeover is in full effect but what I liked about this past week was how other players got some more visibility. I have to say Darby Allin jumping on the Death Riders from the top of the entryway was fun to watch. See, if you’re gonna descend from the sky it might as well be on top of someone. Why go through all the drama for no effect? Also, Claudio Castagnoli aka Cesaro was subtly humorous contradicting Wheeler Yuta. I hope that was just a dash of foreshadowing, but we’ll see. Castagnoli also demonstrated what he brings to the table, as we all know that though he is leanly built, he’s one of the strongest in the Industry pound-for-pound. When the Ride...

SmackDown Finalizes Survivor Series / War Games with Its Fallout...

  How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? Is this Friday treating you well? I hope so. Well, there isn’t that much going on in the wrestling world. At least, not a lot that caught my interest so this will be a short post. SmackDown is on FS1 tonight due to college football anyway so, let’s keep this to the point. The big news appears to regard William Regal. As we generally know, he’s currently with AEW and supposedly in a 3-year contract but rumblings are suggesting that Triple H has poached him back to the WWE. My only question is will he return to NXT. Regal didn’t have a WWE TV presence so, I would think that’s the plan though I wouldn’t mind him on the main show. I didn’t see much of him in his prime years but what I’ve seen in recent years has been engaging. We’ll see what this ultimately leads to. As for tonight’s SmackDown action there’s relatively little advertised. We’ll have the conclusion of the “World Cup” action as Ricochet faces off against Santos Escobar for a shot at the Int...
