I'm a musician, singer/songwriter, blogger, writer, poet, bodybuilder, movie lover, music lover, video gamer, history/political buff, conservative/republican, etc. I like to do a lot of things.
So New Mexico governor, Bill Richardson denied pardon for Billy The Kid’s murder of Sheriff Will Brady. William J. Brady was brutally shot to death on April 1st, 1878. While Billy The Kid murdered a lot of people around that time, he was going to get possibly pardoned for one murder, not the others. I believe the reason that Billy the Kidd could possibly be pardoned is because Sheriff Brady sided with James Dolan, to start the Lincoln County War, they went to war against Billy and his gang, called, the Regulators. They were feuding over money, power, cattle, etc. You all know the famous story where Billy was shot and killed by Pat Garrett.
While the Kid may have been very dangerous and psychotic back in those days, the things he did weren’t random. He didn’t just do it for the enjoyment of his crimes. Everything he did, had a purpose. He did things for a good reason. Did you think he be famous over this stuff for nothing? The Kid had a hand in changing American history. In reality, The Kid is an American hero. I mean think about it. If Billy haven’t done what he did, and let Sheriff Brady and all those men survive, America wouldn’t be where it is today.
I would like to announce the death of Kodachrome film. No more taking pictures, old school. I’ll miss the old days of taking pictures with an old school camera, using film rolls. Thanks to digital cameras who killed kodachrome. Today’s a sad day. 😦
For the past couple of weeks, the WWE haven’t been doing any celebrity guest hosts. It seems they gave up the celebrity guest thing for good. I guess, the WWE finally got the point that the celebrities were overshadowing the spotlight of the wrestlers. WWE should be a wrestling show. Not about celebrities and the media. The whole celebrity thing was stupid anyway. I think the whole point of the celebrity thing is that the WWE was worried that people wouldn’t watch WWE anymore since the PG switch. That’s the reason for the celebrity guests, to keep people watching. The whole celebrity thing was pointless. Of course, the fans would continue to watch WWE. The company still have their longtime loyal fans, like myself for example. We would still watch even without the celebrity guest hosts.
Last Monday’s RAW in Albany proved that the WWE don’t need celebrity guest hosts anymore. That RAW episode in Albany, where CM Punk joins the Nexus, will be a classic RAW episode 20 years from now. I was very happy when I saw that amazing moment live. That night, I had a smile on my face, and clapping. I wasn’t booing. When I was at the Times Union Center watching the show, I didn’t really cheer the good guys and boo the bad guys. I just cheered and booed who ever I wanted. I would cheer the wrestlers that I like even if they were heel.
It’s interesting how a wrestling audience would react to you when you cheer the bad guys and not boo them. Other people in the crowd would look at you with a nasty look like if you’re the bad guy or something. That’s how people take wrestling seriously and think it’s all real. I miss the old days of WWE when the audience would cheer and boo who ever they wanted, like back in the Attitude days when that happened.
People criticize me for being a wrestling fan, but it’s something I’ve always enjoyed my whole life. I’ll never outgrow wrestling. Wrestling is part of my life. I respect the performers and they do put on good shows, they’re talented, no matter what you think of them.
Long time, TNA star, Awesome Kong (real name: Kia Stevens, the huge black woman pictured above) just signed a contract to WWE. How long did it take WWE to finally notice her? She revealed the news herself on her twitter page. This is great news because the Divas division in WWE could use a big woman. I can definitely see WWE using Awesome Kong, as this unstoppable female monster. She’ll come in as a heel for a while, but maybe babyface sometime in the future.
So you’ve seen me slamming this fitness product, P90x so much, and you wonder why I disagree with it? Well here’s the answer. #1 The product claims, it’ll help you get ripped in 90 days. #2 I feel that P90x makes it seem too easy for people. In other words, it’s for people with no experience with fitness. People don’t want to look up other information about fitness but they rely on P90x only instead. People think they’re going to get ripped and huge, look like Arnold or Sly in 90 days.
This DVD instruction is laughable because there is no possible way you can get ripped in a quick 90 days. It’s all a phony, a huge lie. P90x is fake, all the way. The reality is, it takes years to lose bodyfat and to get the jacked body everyone wants. You maybe able to get a decent small built in a year like I did, but if you want to look like Arnold and Sly, that will take like 10-20 years or more.
I hate P90X, and anybody that gets excited to using it, is a total loser in my opinion. Go ahead and use P90x. When you complete the P90x program, I’m willing to bet you will still look the same, no matter how strict you followed their course.
Legendary R&B and Soul singer, Teena Marie was found dead by her daughter in her home in Pasadena, California. She died in her sleep while taking a Sunday afternoon nap and it might of been a seizure. Teena Marie is most famous for her hit song, “Lover Girl” which she was Grammy nominated for. She is also well known for her collaborations with funk legend, Rick James. Teen Marie was 54 years old.
So I went to WWE RAW in Albany last night. It was a great show. I had a fun time. I had a feeling that the final RAW of 2010 would be a good one, they usually are. No big superstar returns, but my prediction of Nexus kicking out Wade Barrett from the group was right. A shocker at the end of RAW happened, CM Punk is now leader of Nexus replacing Barrett. (See video below)
It was a great ending to last night’s RAW, it was perfect. Of course, all the Cena fans walked out of the show with sad and disappointed looks on their faces. Believe it or not, Nexus has a lot of fans too as there were a lot of people wearing Nexus shirts and holding Nexus signs in the audience. Which means that Nexus isn’t going away anytime soon people. As long as the group is selling shirts, they’ll stick around for a long time. The Nexus is the most successful wrestling stable in the WWE.
Other thoughts on last nights show. WWE RAW opened up with a show called, “WWE Superstars” which is a weekly short show aired on Thursday nights on channel WGN. It started off with a match against Abraham Washington and some other wrestler, I don’t know who. The next match was William Regal against the other guy. I don’t watch “WWE Superstars” that much so I don’t know the wrestlers on that roster, except I am familiar with Abraham Washington who is getting very popular already. Abraham got a lot of heat and boos from the crowd, so I think Abraham is going to get moved to RAW at some point here.
In the opening show of RAW, John Cena was the first to come out, of course, like always. He came out to the ring to start a speech to confront, CM Punk. CM Punk comes out and Cena/Punk got into conversation about Vickie Guerrero. I was hoping Vickie Guerrero would come out that night, but she didn’t. She wasn’t there. Then Punk and Cena starts talking about how their going face each other later that night.
The first match after that promo, was Santino Marella (w/Tamina by his side) wrestled a match against Ted Dibiase Jr. It was a short match, but Santino ends up winning it. The next match was John Morrison vs. Alex Riley, which Morrison won, of course, the Miz was by Alex’s side but the Miz was sent to the back by the Ref ’cause the Miz kept interfering and getting in the way. The next match was Mark Henry vs. Tyson Kidd, another quick match that didn’t last long, Henry won of course. Kidd’s Bodygaurd, Jackson Andrews, confronted Mark Henry, two big giant men stared eye to eye in the ring. Mark Henry ends up beating down, Jackson Andrews, and Mark Henry celebrated the moment with the fans. Next up was Jerry “The King” Lawler vs. The Miz, Lawler actually wrestled a lot and he was actually pretty good. Lawler won with the help of John Morrison. I thought it was pretty amazing seeing Lawler wrestle and witnessing him winning. Lawler who is a legend and a Hall of Famer.
Next up, was the Divas match, Melina & Alicia Fox vs. Eve Torres & Gail Kim. Melina and Alicia Fox won of course, after the match, Natalya Neidhart (who is the daughter of Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart, btw) went up to slap Melina across the face for payback of last week’s RAW when Melina attacked Natalya. This actually a pretty exciting match. I’m glad I got the honor to see Melina who is a favorite of mine. It was also great to see Natalya, the daugther of a legend and a family member of Bret “The Hitman” Hart as well.
Next, was Daniel Bryan vs. Zack Ryder, Daniel won of course. It was a great opportunity to see Daniel Bryan who I had my eye on for a long while. He’s a great talent. After that match, the Anonymous GM rang in and announced to Jerry Lawler that he had a New Year’s suprise, guess what, Lawler got the beat down by the Miz as for payback from earlier. Of course, there were lots of strong boos all over the arena.
Now here is the main event with Randy Orton vs. Sheamus. It was great seeing these two guys live. Randy won of course, it was a clean match with no interferences. After the match got over witih, Cena came out to confront CM Punk, but instead Nexus comes out announcing they got a new leader replaced. Like I said, CM Punk is now the official leader.
What is next for Wade Barrett? I’m thinking Wade Barrett would go babyface, not a heel. So he can join Cena to fight against the Nexus. It was actually a good RAW. I’m glad we only heard from Anonymous GM only once. That laptop computer thing is annoying. They’ll reveal the GM at the Royal Rumble or sometime before the PPV. Last night was actually an exciting show. I’ll watch it again on my DVR.
Well that was quite a blizzard over night! Yes, I’m still going to WWE Monday Night RAW at the Times Union Center in Albany, tonight. The show is still on. Why? Simply put, WWE don’t postpone or cancel their shows no matter the weather conditions. They are committed at what they do. So yeah, the WWE crew and all the RAW superstars are in Albany today, and safely too.
The main event for the night is a tag team match with John Cena/Randy Orton vs. Wade Barrett/the Miz w/ Michael Cole as the special guest referee. My prediction on that match is that the Nexus group will be involved and someone is going to get the beatdown by the Nexus. Who? I have a feeling it might be Wade Barrett, the groups leader, the Nexus. There have been signs that Nexus members were going to kick their leader out of the group and it might happen tonight.
Looking forward to seeing all the superstars and the Divas performing for us Albany peeps. Also, this is the final RAW of 2010, so this is a big event for them. Something big will happen tonight. Yeah, we’re probably gonna have to put up with the Anonymous RAW GM laptop thing and deal with John Cena take over the whole show like usual, but it’s still going to be fun.
Some may think I have seen WWE live a lot. Well, honestly, I haven’t. I only saw WWE shows in the past like 3 or 4 times in my life. So this will be my first RAW live show ever. I will be going with family members that are fans of WWE. I’ll write about it when I get back. Oh, and of course, I will record this on my DVR, in hopes of me getting spotted on TV!
My choices for “Best Films of 2010” is coming, I’m waiting to see “True Grit” and “Tron” first, then I’ll do it. I’m thinking of announcing my top 10 Best Films of this year in a video blog, instead of writing it all here. I think it will be more fun doing it on video instead. On video, I’ll do the backwards countdown, “10-1”, the first film being the best, obviously. I’ll try to see if I can download a drum roll sound effect, before the no. 1 choice. Be patience though. The top Ten Films list will be here on video soon, maybe next weekend. I’m going to see “True Grit” and “Tron” this week. I need to see if those films are worthy to be on the list.
