Night of Champions - RAW Fallout

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts!   Are you enjoying the day off if you have it? Most of us in the United States have the federal holiday of Memorial Day off and I have to say that it’s always nice to have a 3-day weekend. WWE took advantage and had a couple PPVs if you count NXT’s offering. Let’s discuss, shall we?   Well, WWE can rest easy this week as word has it AEW’s PPV, Double or Nothing didn’t quite hit the mark. I saw some comments along the lines of it being “boring” so, WWE is definitely going in the right direction as the PPVs of late have been quite entertaining. Night of Champions was no different.   Most feel the 3 rd and final “main event” with Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn battling the Bloodline in the form of Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa was Match of the Night. I just have to say that Zayn addressing the crowd in Arabic was very heartwarming. It’s always nice to have real moments like that which put the whole event in proper prospective.   That did give way to

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? The start of the Memorial Day Weekend doing you well? If it doesn’t apply, is Friday at least a good one, especially as it’s close to being over for many of us? I certainly hope all is well. As for the Wrestling World, it’s a slow news day. The key players for WWE are over in Saudi Arabia and AEW is here stateside doing its thing. There are a few tidbits to comment on so, let’s have a brief chat. In CM Punk news, word is some agreement has been made so Collision is now a “go”. I guess Punk and Tony Khan reached some agreement regarding Steel. Word is Steel will work remotely to appease Punk. So there’s that. It will be interesting to see how the crowd responds. The notion going around that Punk should go heel is not a bad one in this light, but I think it should be more humorous than pointed.  If the media scrum that started all this was in fact a work that missed the mark, it’s because Punk wasn’t being over-the-top enough. He played it too serious and pe

Happy Friday, Enthusiasts! It’s finally clear and sunny in Southern California. It’s cold, though so, a little different. We’ve had warm days in these last days of winter in the past but right now, it’s acting like Spring isn’t around the corner. No matter, it doesn’t stop me from staying in to enjoy my Friday night. Got plans for the weekend so, it’s not all homebound. Regardless, we’ve got a few points of interest to talk about. Let’s get into them, shall we? Before we get into the rumor mill, let’s first offer some sincere congratulations to Solo Sikoa. Looks like he tied the knot this week and from what I could gather, it appears to be a lovely union. I wish the happy couple all the best. Mazel Tov! All right, now to what’s going around. The first bit of “news” isn’t all that surprising. It sounds like Brock Lesnar has no interest working with Bray Wyatt. Word is that he shot down a WrestleMania match proposed for this year. This, I don’t blame Lesnar for. The angle still has a lot
