So I’ve just started watching “Total Divas” on WWE Network… is that wrong?

Leave a comment

I’m not a big fan of reality shows. As a matter of fact, I really hate them as I try not to watch any of them but I can’t help myself to check out “Total Divas”. I’m finally getting into the show. I’m six episodes in on season 1 and I can’t stop watching. The show is actually very entertaining and good.

This show is kind of like “The Real World” and “Jersey Shore” a little bit but really though, I wouldn’t compare this show to those two shows at all. The other shows are mostly about negative stuff like living the wild lifestyle… like partying, getting into drugs, sex and a lot of soap opera stuff. “Total Divas” isn’t like other reality shows at all.

“Total Divas” is a lot more positive and this show is actually enjoyable to watch. Why? I don’t know… maybe it’s because girls like Natalya Neidhart and Trinity make the show likeable ’cause they are likeable girls. They really are. This show is not about the crazy stuff like other reality shows.

This show is about these groups of girls trying to get into the wrestling business and reaching their dreams. They want to get into the wrestling business like all their wrestling heroes did that they looked up to over the years of their lives. This show is the behind the scenes of them getting into the wrestling business and how they got into the WWE. You want to know where all these new women in WWE came from? Well, most of them came from this show “Total Divas”. Most of these girls perform regularly on RAW and Smackdown. This show is about the lives of all these girls.

This show is very popular though. I got into this show ’cause some people kept talking to me about it since I’m a huge wrestling fanatic. So I decided to finally check it out and I’m liking it!

While this show is entertaining and enjoyable, what I like most about is that the show is full of hot women. This show allows the women to show more skin and more cleavage which WWE RAW didn’t allow them to do.

I think I’m gonna keep watching ’cause I’m already addicted. I think this show “Total Divas” is scripted like most reality shows but at least it’s enjoyable. It’s actually a great show and you should start watching it too if you’re a wrestling fan.

Trump to nominate Linda McMahon for a position in his cabinet, no surprise there…

Leave a comment

Linda McMahon, (who is the former CEO of WWE and she’s also the wife of WWE owner Vince McMahon) is getting a position for Trump’s cabinet. She’s being considered for the Small Business Administration which is perfect for her really.

I had a feeling that Linda was gonna be considered for a part in Trump’s cabinet ’cause Donald Trump is friends with the McMahon family. Trump and the WWE had a long history together. Trump held two Wrestlemania events at his Trump Plaza back in the 80’s. Trump also performed for a hair vs. hair match which was a “Battle of Billionaires” at Wrestlemania 23. Trump is a WWE Hall of Famer too.

Linda left WWE so she can get into politics so it turns out she’s a Republican and is a Donald Trump supporter. This position would be good for Linda ’cause she knows a lot about business since her husband Vince is a businessman.

I’m sure this choice is gonna get the media all worked up. They’ll have a field day with this for sure just because she’s a part of WWE. They’ll be like “Oh no, Trump is having someone from WWE in his cabinet”. They’re gonna smear her and make her look ridiculous, I’m sure!

Last night’s “Survivor Series” was mostly great except for that terrible main event, Lesnar vs. Goldberg sucked!!!

Leave a comment

So I watched last night’s Survivor Series ppv on WWE Network and it was mostly good except for that terrible main event with Brock vs. Goldberg. Goldberg just delivered Brock a couple of spears and a jackhammer, it was over just like that. See the quick match in the video above.  After all that hype and buildup for this match, the match only lasted for a little over one-minute, really Vince?

Anyway, I’m sure the Brock vs. Goldberg feud isn’t over yet so I’m feeling there’s going to be a third match with them pretty soon. Brock vs. Goldberg #3 for Wrestlemania 33? I’m willing to bet that’s what the plan is so maybe their next match will be longer and more exciting hopefully. Storyline wise, Brock is definitely gonna want his payback tonight on RAW so I’ll watch RAW to see what happens.

For the most part, though, most of last night’s Survivor Series was really good. The best matches of the night last night were the Women’s 5 on 5 matchup with Team Charlotte and Team Natalya. I definitely think Charlotte is making women’s wrestling more exciting again for sure, that was a pretty exciting match to watch too. Another female star I’ve been liking lately is Bayley, she’s been catching my attention. I’m feeling a Charlotte vs. Bayley match for WM-33. I’m loving Charlotte the more I see her, though, she’s my favorite right now.

Another match that was real good was Team RAW vs. Team Smackdown Live 5 on 5 with Team AJ Styles and Team Kevin Owens. That match was pretty amazing and so much fun to watch.

The other matches were okay but the ones I talked about above I liked the most except for that horrible Brock vs. Goldberg match. Not sure why that match was so short. Maybe it’s because of Goldberg’s age, I don’t know? If Goldberg lasted in that match for more than 5 minutes he would’ve been out of breath. I guess WWE wanted to give Goldberg the spotlight to keep the fans happy. Is this gonna be Goldberg’s final match? I’m feeling one more is coming on and it’s probably gonna be at WM-33.

I’ll be watching “Survivor Series” ppv tonight for the Goldberg vs. Lesnar match…

Leave a comment

Looking forward to watching “Survivor Series” ppv on WWE Network later tonight. Even though everybody knows that Brock Lesnar will win against Goldberg tonight, it should be a fun and exciting match anyways. I have a feeling it’s gonna be a brutal match, though. I have a feeling that something might happen to Goldberg ’cause they don’t call Lesnar the beast incarnate for no reason. Goldberg could end up in a bloody mess.

I enjoy “Survivor Series” ppvs ’cause I like how they team up a group of wrestlers vs. another team, so exciting. “Survivor Series” will be starting at 7 so it’s looking like it’ll be a 4 hr. ppv. I have a feeling that most matches tonight will be quick ’cause Lesnar vs. Goldberg will probably be a long one. Gotta save the time for the main event. Looking forward to it tonight! Hope it’s good!

Charlotte has the best theme song for a WWE Diva… pretty cool music…

Leave a comment

I don’t know about you but I’m really loving the music of Charlotte’s entrance theme music. It’s like a techno version of Richard Strauss’s “Also sprach Zarathustra” which was taken from “2001: A Space Odyssey”. Every time I hear this theme song, it gets me all psyched ’cause Charlotte’s coming out. Don’t know what it is about this theme song that makes me like her. I think Jim Johnston who is the musician who does all the music for WWE superstars did a great job with this theme.

Most superstar theme songs are pretty crappy but they did a great job with Charlotte’s. I would like to download a copy of this theme song for myself so I can workout at the gym with, ha ha. It’ll be a good song to jump rope to or hit the heavybag with.

There are only very few WWE themes that I like, some of my other favorite WWE entrance theme music would be The Undertaker’s, Chris Jericho’s “Break the Walls Down”, Triple H’s “Time to Play the game” theme by Motorhead, Bret Hart’s theme, the Ultimate Warrior theme and the Wyatt Family theme. Of course, can’t go wrong with the Stone Cold theme and Vince McMahon’s “No Chance in Hell”.

Out of all of these themes, Charlotte is my favorite, though. Charlotte’s theme is cool stuff, listen for yourself.

Hulk Hogan returning to WWE after Gawker feud? I wouldn’t be surprised and I hope he does return! Honestly!!!

Leave a comment

Once before, I admitted that I used to be a Hulk Hogan hater but I don’t think I am anymore. After all this Gawker stuff, I now believe that Gawker messed with the wrong guy and really believe that Hulk is innocent this time. I had a change of heart with Hogan and now I’m a fan again.

http://www.forbes.com/sites/blakeoestriecher/2016/11/05/this-week-in-wwe-biz-hulk-hogan-return-ronda-rousey-deal-the-undertaker-vs-randy-orton-more/#2d35757e6693

Yeah, Hulk is probably gonna return to the WWE and he will probably have his last match at the next Wrestlemania which will be WM-33. Who should Hulk have his final match with?

It’ll probably be none other than Vince McMahon. Hulk and Vince already had a match together at Wrestlemania 19 but I’m feeling a Hulk vs. Vince match #2 is coming on. I wouldn’t be surprised that this whole Gawker thing gets turned into a WWE storyline and it probably will. Hulk will probably challenge Vince for a match for firing him over it. That’s probably what the storyline is gonna be. A whole new Vince vs. Hulk feud is coming.

Hulk will probably return sometime before the next Wrestlemania ’cause I know he’s gonna want to have a main event for the next one. Hulk could probably return at the next Royal Rumble, though, he could be a surprise entrant during the 30 man rumble matchup. I can see that happening.

Top 10 Wrestlers who really need to be in the WWE Hall of Fame!!!

Leave a comment

I’ve been watching a lot of old school wrestling on the WWE Network. Mostly stuff from the 80’s, 90’s and the Attitude Era. I watch all this and I’m thinking the WWE is still missing a lot of guys in the “Hall of Fame”. You know how in the “Rock and Roll Hall of Fame” is pretty bad and missing a lot of bands that deserve to get in? Well the WWE Hall of Fame is just as bad. There are too many wrestlers that deserves to get in and I’ll name 10 wrestlers who are totally deserving of a WWE Hall of Fame induction in no particular order. I probably did this list once before a long time ago but I’ll do it again.

  • The Undertaker: It’s kind of crazy that ‘Taker isn’t in yet. When will the Deadman ever make his way in there? He should have been in a long time ago.
  • Owen Hart: Enough said? I’ve been watching a lot of Owen Hart matches on WWE Network and he was phenomenal performer. He was amazing. Definitely deserving.
  • John “Bradshaw” Layfield or better known as JBL: This guy is most famous as the tag team for the APA with Farooq and he also went solo as a wrestler. JBL had a legendary career and he’s totally deserving.
  • Chris Jericho: Y2J has been in the WWE for many years and he’s still performing but occasionally. Y2J deserves an induction ’cause he had a great career too. Plus, he’s also a phenomenal performer.
  • “The Model” Rick Martel: Remember this guy? He had the full package… the good looks and he was a great wrestler too. He never won the WWE Title but he has won tag team titles a couple of times, though. He was a great performer as well.
  • Chyna: She’ll make her way in there hopefully soon.
  • “Ravishing” Rick Rude: He definitely needs to be in there. Can’t believe he’s not in yet.
  • Lex Luger: Come on really? Sure, his career in WWE was short but he was still a freakin’ badass. Plus he had a long career in WCW. The guy is a wrestling legend for sure. Can’t deny it.
  • Kurt Angle: Can’t believe this Olympic Gold Medalist with a broken freakin’ neck didn’t get in. I’ve always been a Kurt Angle fan whether he was a bad guy or a good guy, he did it all well.

There are tons more wrestlers to name that aren’t in yet like Kane, Big Show, the Hardy Boys, Rey Mysterio, Scott Steiner, Goldberg, Bam Bam Bigelow, etc. I can only name ten though.

Come on Vince… hurry up get those guys in I listed above!

Why Vince McMahon continues to promote wrestling as if it’s real… I get it now!

Leave a comment

Vince McMahon and the WWE continues to promote wrestling like if it’s real. We all know it’s not but that’s how they want to promote wrestling. I get why Vince does this because it’s how they draw crowds at their live shows and draw viewers for TV. A lot of the “smart” wrestling fans like to criticize WWE about ignoring wrestling and calling it “entertainment”. I had my share of criticizing WWE for promoting wrestling like if it’s real but I was wrong. I get why they do it. They have to promote wrestling this way. Otherwise, they wouldn’t get sponsors. They wouldn’t get TV networks to agree to air their shows. If the WWE promoted their shows aimed toward the smart wrestling fans, they wouldn’t get much of an audience. WWE is clearly aimed toward an audience who are “marks”. A “mark” is a wrestling term for people who think wrestling is real. There are a lot of marks out there and there are way too many people out there who believe wrestling is real. If you’re a “smart” wrestling fan like myself and if you tried to talk with a mark about wrestling then they wouldn’t understand terms like “babyface”, “heel”, “storyline”, “gimmick”, “feud”, “bump”, “house show”, “job”, “kayfabe”, etc. Someone who is a mark wouldn’t understand those terms at all. I try to talk with people about wrestling all the time and most WWE fans don’t understand those terms I listed. Crazy. The problem is there are still lots of people who believe that wrestling is real is why and I’m fine with that. I’m just glad that there are other WWE fans around.

I wish people would stop criticizing McMahon about promoting wrestling like if it’s real ’cause I give so much respect to that guy. Love him or hate Vince all you want to, that guy knows how to put on a fucking show. He does things for his own reasons. I think the WWE do a good job entertaining people and that’s why I give them so much respect for. I’ve been a long time WWE fan and still am. A lot of times they get bad and a lot of times they get good. I watch WWE on and off.

I subscribe to the WWE Network ’cause I want to watch all the old school wrestling that are on there like all the stuff from the 80’s and 90’s. They were the good old days of wrestling. What is my opinion on wrestling now which is called “The New Era”? It’s actually pretty good really. A lot of new young talent. I dig Charlotte, AJ Styles and Seth Rollins. They are my favorites right now but today’s wrestling is pretty good.

I’ll always be a wrestling fanatic. Will always have a lot of respect for Vince. That guy works hard to put on good shows and I’m looking forward to Survivor Series pretty soon.

Charlotte Flair… making women’s wrestling in WWE fun again? I would say so!!!

Leave a comment

For a long while, the women’s division in WWE hasn’t been interesting at all. I think Charlotte Flair (real name: Ashley Fliehr) who is the daughter of wrestling legend, Ric Flair, is starting to make women’s wrestling interesting again. Whether you like her or not, you gotta admit that she’s making women’s wrestling interesting again.

I watched last night’s Hell in a Cell ppv so I can watch the first ever women’s “Hell in a Cell” match with Charlotte vs. Sasha Banks. My god. I was surprised! The match turned out pretty amazing and impressive! That match will definitely go down as a classic years from now and I think there will be more women’s “Hell in a Cell” matches after this one. Hopefully they do another women’s Hell in a Cell match for the next Wrestlemania. They probably will. Both women Charlotte and Sasha did a great job for their first “Hell in a Cell” match. Only thing I’m disappointed in that match was that they didn’t fight at the top of the cell. They did try to go to the top of the cell but only made it halfway up.

WWE did a great job making it seem like a Hell in a Cell match was too dangerous for women. Both of them pulled it off nicely, though. It was a pretty exciting match. Charlotte is definitely making women’s wrestling exciting again for sure. I’m sure most wrestling fans would agree. The more I watch Charlotte on RAW, the more I like her. I’ve been keeping an eye on Charlotte ever since she made her RAW debut. She started off as a babyface (a good wrestler) but then she turned heel after she turned on her father on RAW.

In real life, though, it’s obvious that Ric has been teaching her a lot about wrestling ’cause Charlotte reminds me so much of Ric Flair. I think Charlotte is one of the most talented women in wrestling we’ve had in a long time. She’s the best female heel since Sensational Sherri. I really mean that too. Not only that Charlotte is a great wrestler and good performer, she’s also smoking hot and nice to look at!

Charlotte is awesome and I hope she stays in WWE for a pretty long time. It’s obvious that Vince McMahon and WWE is pretty high on her right now which is good. I hope WWE doesn’t mess up her character and doesn’t screw her career ’cause they do that to good performers all the time. Charlotte could soon become the most recognizable star in wrestling since Trish Stratus and Lita. Hope they keep up the good work and don’t mess it up.

Thoughts on the “New Era” in WWE so far…

1 Comment

I’ll take long breaks from watching WWE from time to time ’cause why? A lot of times WWE would get so bad in their storylines and matches. A lot of people would accuse me of being a die-hard WWE follower but I’m not really. I like to watch WWE on and off. I’m not all that obsessed with wrestling like a lot of people say. I’m more into old-school wrestling than today’s wrestling to be honest. I was more into 80’s wrestling and the Attitude Era in the 90’s is what I was mostly into. I continued to watch WWE over the years but once again, “on” and “off”.

I’ve just started watching RAW again after a long break from it. Sometimes I’ll tune into RAW again to see what’s going on. In this new era of WWE, they are calling it the “New Era”. Why? It’s simply because there are nothing but new and young talent on the WWE roster. Most of the old iconic stars and veterans of WWE has moved on and retired (like Stone Cold, HBK, Edge, the Hardy Boys, Trish Stratus, Lita, Ric Flair, CM Punk, Kurt Angle, etc.).

Now WWE has signed a bunch of new talent that I’ve never heard before. Honestly, I’m not that crazy about most of the new talent but so far my favorites are AJ Styles, Charlotte Flair, Finn Balor and Nattie Neidhart.

I remember I used to watch AJ Styles on TNA Impact a lot and I always knew that guy would make it in the WWE one day and now AJ Styles is WWE Champion. AJ Styles is awesome. I wish Sting would stick around a little longer ’cause I think a Sting vs. AJ Styles match would be awesome. I’m pretty sure Aj Styles and Sting had matches together before in TNA. It be cool if they had one in WWE.

While most of the legends have retired and gone, there are still longtime WWE stars who are still around like John Cena, Chris Jericho, Randy Orton, Triple H, Goldust, The Undertaker, Big Show and Kane. Those guys are still around… The Rock still works in WWE but occasionally, though.

As far as John Cena goes, I don’t really hate him anymore and I think I’m a fan of his now. I’ve been watching a lot of old Wrestlemania’s on WWE Network and Cena gained my respect through that. Whether you like Cena or not, you can’t deny that Cena puts on really exciting matches. The guy works hard. He’s the hardest working guy in WWE by far. I’m not a Cena hater anymore, in fact I’m a big fan now. It’s the guy’s work ethic is what’s impressing me about him. Plus Cena is a great performer too.

I’m still a fan of WWE though. I still respect what those guys do. While many don’t like wrestling, the haters of WWE don’t want to admit that they do a good job entertaining people.

Yeah, WWE is fake and scripted. I always knew that and when people tell me that, I just laugh it off and ignore ’em. I just watch WWE for “entertainment” ’cause I respect them for what they do. They’re good performers and they sacrificed a lot of things just to be on the road 24/7 entertaining people. People don’t want to admit what they do is “courageous”.
