WWE Musings

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   Enjoying this July and summer so far? This is a bit of a bittersweet Monday with the news of Malcolm-Jamal Warner’s passing. It’s random and sad. It’s another reminder of impermanence. None of us are guaranteed anything in this life. Cherish what comes and what stays. As for the Wrestling World, there’s nothing too crazy going on. There are few things to chat about so, let’s get into it shall we?   In the Realm of AEW, I would say the Riders of Death are making…interesting moves. They took out Colt Cabana who infamously had some sort of falling out with CM Punk. You could say that this guy started the beginning of the end when it comes to Punk’s AEW run. Would this be some roundabout attempt at getting in Punk’s good graces? There is history there. I guess the real question is why but you got Jon Moxley going around trying to “kill” people. Would it be so far-fetched for him to be somewhat stuck in the past?   I don’t have a prob...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? The Wrestling World appears to be taking a bit of a breather given all the action last weekend. Given that, this should be a short post. Let’s get down to what little is going on and get on with it, shall we? In the Realm of AEW, it appears the days for the Riders of Death are “numbered”. AEW protagonists such as Hangman Page and Darby Allin seem to be joining forces to squash their noise. Is this the end? I wouldn’t say so but it is the time to “regroup”. I suppose you can say that Jon Moxley may be suffering from a slight case of denial at the moment but the facts are staring him in the face so, he should respond soon. If the Collision spoilers are any indication, we just haven’t seen it yet. Give him time. The Future remains Bright. In the WWE Universe, it appears that AJ Styles will be visiting his old alma mater for Slammiversary. They’re making it a big deal so, give the man some space. It’s not unlikely that Styles may finish his career with TNA give...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? How’d you like the weekend? There was a little something for everyone, wasn’t there. That means there’s plenty to talk about but I’ll only touch on a few points. If you’re like me, you don’t care that much but like to be kept abreast of the general current events. So, let’s break some of this down. We’ll start in the Realm of AEW as they are feeling elated as the great nasty “masochistic dragon” that is Jon Moxley was finally “slain” by the great and mighty Adam, the Hangman of Page! Now, perhaps it’s my WWE lens but I wasn’t as caught up with this as many commenters were but I have to say that Page’s victory was well-executed. Page stuck to being no-nonsense. He hung with Mox and got bloody with him too and in the end, gave him a taste of his own medicine by “half-strangling” him with a chain. If you saw the conclusion, Mox did the rest with his frenzied reaction. Looked like a cat caught in a net or something but I feel that was the proper response.  ...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? It’s a hot one in Southern California. No doubt it’s summer. Not complaining as it usually allows me to shed a few unintended pounds. When it comes to the Wrestling World there are things going on. AEW has its All-In PPV coming up and WWE is starting to turn up the heat for Summer Slam. There isn’t a lot for me to comment on but I got a few things. Ready for it? Here it goes. So, I had to stop by the Realm of AEW to check in on the progress of The Future and it appears to be going well. Hangman Page is doing a good job of keeping the focus in the ring and building up the anticipation for this Texas Death Match with Jon Moxley. Moxley did his talking and changed the script at the end of the main event of this week’s Dynamite . The Riders of Death joined forces with the Young Bucks and the Hooligan, Gabe Kidd and looked as if they would try to “kill” Page before the match even happened but then Swerve Strickland entered the chat. Those who know, know that Pag...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? How’s your Monday going? This has been one of the smoother ones on record for me. As for the Wrestling World, nothing really is resonating with me so, this should be a short post. Ready for it? Here we go. We’ll pitstop in the Realm of AEW to comment on some of their administrative business. There’s been talk that Britt Baker may be WWE bound but now reports are that she’s not leaving AEW anytime soon, which may be for the best. I can’t see people caring enough in the WWE Universe. Many feel she’d be a great heel but the roster is stacked and doesn’t really need someone who’s all bark, no bite. That said, we’ll see if there are any surprises at this weekend’s WWE Evolution event. Over in the WWE Universe, the talk is that the musician Jelly Roll will be working closely with WWE going forward. In what capacity has only been hinted at but the sentiment is that this collaboration should be in effect at least through SummerSlam. I have no problems with this. Je...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   Happy Independence Day to my fellow Americans. Yeah, it’s a bit of a mixed bag right now but I’ve always been in favor of the concept of this nation even though execution has always had much to be desired. Regardless, it affords me a day off and some time to relax and get acclimated to my new/temporary surroundings.   As for the Wrestling World, there’s not that much going on for me to get interested in. There’s always plenty but you know me. I’m only interested in so much. I did, however get a bit caught up with some of the goings-on in the Realm of AEW.   You may have realized that I’m only concerned with the Future and at present, that involves Adam “the Hangman” Page. This mustachioed hero isn’t having any of Jon Moxley or his Riders of Death, even if they’re lady-folk. The “shocker” was him taking out Marina Shafir this past Wednesday and it’s hard to say she didn’t have it coming. She did slap him a bunch of times 😉 Mox, ...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   A Merry Monday to you. It’s hard for me to complain about it since I have it off to take care of all this settling in business. Thankfully, when I do this again, it should be less packing up and just moving and unloading and things being delivered. This is like a sort of test run for my personal future.   As for the Wrestling World, eyes were on what turned out to be a fair Night of Champions without incident and it appears everyone made it out alive so, that’s comforting. Jeff Bezos getting married appeared to be what got the most attention this past weekend.   Regardless, I was able to check in on the state of affairs in the Realm of AEW and the Future seems to be slowly but surely manifesting. Our Jon Moxley took a moment to wax poetic as he has his sights on the crybaby that is Adam “the Hangman” Page. I can’t help but focus on the moustache when it comes to Page. He looks like a cartoon character. I keep expecting it to flip...

Hey Enthusiats, Well, I've been saying I'm on the move and the move finally happened. It's not done but it's the start. I'll be moving again later in the year but this is the precursor. In any case, as you can see, that has pulled my time away from my favorite pastime. I didn't have time to even watch SmackDown.  Had to DVR it so I could catch up at my leisure. So, that's what I'm gonna do. Couldn't even check in on the Future. Let me get all caught up and I'll just see what they do with Night of Champions.  Since I've got some unpacking to do, expect me to check-in late today too. I'll see it when I see it. I'll let you know when I finally sit down and partake. Have fun and we'll talk about it on Monday. See You in a Bit, -Nicole Alexis (^_~) 

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   It’s a bit uneasy for us Americans as we all are aware of the conflict in Iran. Word is that Qatari airspace is “closed” at the moment and Qatar shares a border with Saudi Arabia and so, there’s some trickle-down effect circling Night of Champions. Will it still go on? So far, it’s looking like it but a lot of people are wondering if this will be at the cost of civilian life. The situation isn’t ideal but word is that a ceasefire has been issued between Iran and Israel so we’ll see if they’ll honor it.   As of now, plans appear to be holding but if they’re going to change, it will have to be decided before Wednesday because that’s what’s supposed to be the talent travel day. It’s a mixed bag within the IWC. Most feel WWE/TKO will push ahead in the name of money but there is a general sentiment that the show should probably be cancelled in light of these tensions and the US’ questionable involvement.   This is not new territory. T...

  How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? Happy Friday! So, the Wrestling World has its goings ons but per usual, I’m only interested in a few things. Shouldn’t take too much of your time. Shall we have a little chat? First, we’ll take a brief look at the Realm of AEW as they were in Mexico this week. As you may have figured by now, I’m only interested in the Future, so I had a look at the main event. The implications aren’t immediately clear other than the Riders of Death have to lose some, sometimes. I would say that this Beast Mortos guy was the most impressive, though word of him dating Mercedes Moné has prompted some curiosity. What’s under the mask?!  The joke seems to be he’s a looker but is he? 😉 From what I found online, he’s very okay and a bit thicker than I anticipated but that’s what makes this profession appealing to some. It welcomes a larger frame. In any case, let them carry on. In the WWE Universe, there are few things going on. One that may have more general attention...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts?   Having a decent Monday? Well, mine turned out to be a bit fateful. I’ve been planning a move for a while but it is finally coming to be. Looks like I’ll soon be doing a stint in the Inland Empire then going back to the hometown. 2026 should be an interesting year indeed.   As for the Wrestling World, there are a couple things I’d like to touch on. There’s always stuff going on but not always stuff I’m interested in. Let’s get to it, shall we? I’ll try to be brief.   In the Realm of AEW there appears to be some blurring of the lines in effect as word is a crew member filed “assault” charges on Jon Moxley and AEW. What’s being circulated is suspect ‘cause it names “Moxley” as opposed to the government name so, I’m thinking this is a work but I’m not mad at it. When it comes to the Future, it could be the initial shot fired from his detractors. "Someone on the inside" may have planted the seed, sort of thing. He is a “menace”. Will ...
