Brock stands up for WWE…

Leave a comment

People shouldn’t treat the WWE in a negative direction. I have stood up for WWE countless times in these blogs. Trying my best to defend the company from the ongoing negative critics that points directly at the company. I have been an obsessive fan of wrestling ever since I was a child. I just LOVE professional wrestling. I don’t know why. I just became very addicted to it. I just love how these guys perform. Even if the wrestling is fake and scripted, I still find it entertaining. The promos and the speeches the wrestlers do are amazing. Wrestling is almost like theatre in a way. That’s pretty much what it is. I respect what these guys do and respect how hard they work to perform for fans.

I may not like certain storylines and certain wrestlers, but I will always respect what they do. I have been a fan of WWE my entire life and still am to this day. For those that attack this PG rating, WWE started off as PG in the 80’s when Hulk Hogan, Andre, Ultimate Warrior, Roddy Piper, Macho Man, etc. were around back in those days. That’s all PG. Think about it. WWE wants to re-live that 80’s moment and doing a pretty good job of it. They created many superstars and wrestlers that I enjoyed, and loved. WWE is the reason that I became a huge fan of the hardcore wrestling genius, Mick Foley.

It’s no secret that WWE has always been a huge target in media and by people all over the world. If people are hating on the company, it just proves that the WWE is good at what they do. The company is not really about the money. Not at all. Yes, they are a billion dollar company, but WWE and their superstars really care for people. That’s what they put on these shows for is to entertain us and put smiles on our faces. The WWE are great entertainers. Probably the best in the world. Sure, you may go see, the “Ringling and Barnum & Bailey Circus” or the Big Monster trucks shows, but nobody cares about that stuff anymore. Professional wrestling has pretty much taken over the world of live entertainment for sure.

People accuse wrestlers of using steroids and drugs. People blame the WWE on all of these young wrestler deaths that’s been happening for a long while now. None of this is the WWE’s fault. Wrestlers may have used steroids in the past, but not anymore because WWE has a very strict Wellness policy that performers must follow. The wrestler deaths are not the fault of WWE. Most of the wrestlers that died no longer worked for the WWE. So they did drugs on their own terms when not working for wrestling at all. I can understand why people would blame the WWE on this stuff with drugs since the Chris Benoit controversy, but don’t blame this on the WWE. All they want to do is perform for us, the fans.

The WWE also gets attacked for their women that perform in the WWE, aka the Divas. People accused WWE of using women like sex slaves. How most of them are perfect looking women with breast implants and all that. Treating the women like sex slaves in storylines of WWE has happened in the past. They don’t do that stuff anymore, it all happened back in the TV-14 era. The women that perform on WWE now are no longer sexual. They don’t show cleavages anymore and they cover up a lot of skin now. Plus, beautiful women in WWE is needed so they can help sell tickets and more ppv buyrates.

Without the WWE, there would be no Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, Ultimate Warrior, Macho Man, Jake the Snake, Undertaker, Stone Cold, the Rock, John Cena, Mick Foley, Shawn Michaels, Bret the Hitman Hart, etc. All these legendary superstars that mean a lot to so many people were all because of the WWE. People attack WWE out of jealousy, I’m sure. I can’t blame the company for defending themselves. The WWE is a very powerful company. Nothing can take them down although people try. I’ve been watching WWE for over 20 years ever since I was a child, and will watch ’til the day I die. I’ll never outgrow the WWE. I even dreamed of becoming a professional wrestler myself, but that dream is over ’cause I’m too late and too old for that. Most wrestlers start when they are very young.

The WWE is great at what they do, no matter if you like them or not. All these attacks and threats by the politicians at the WWE, is just proof that Linda McMahon will win and she will get elected Senate of Connecticut. Mark my words. Jesse Ventura went through this same trouble during his election for governor of Minnesota, because of his WWE background, but he got the win anyway. I respect the WWE. I respect the McMahon’s and the staff that work so hard at what they do. The WWE has my back, 100%. I will stand behind them, no matter what anybody says or thinks.

Report: Linda McMahon vs. Connecticut state politicians gets even nastier, people aren’t allowed to vote if they wear WWE garbs!!!

Leave a comment

Now you understand why Vince McMahon started this, “I Stand Up for WWE” campaign. It’s not only to help his wife in the election for Conn. state senate, it’s also to help defend the company WWE. If voters wear WWE garbs, they will not be allowed to vote.

More on it, here.

I agree, the WWE is being unfairly attacked in the Senate race in Conn. I totally stand up for WWE, all the way. I will be writing a post to stand up for the WWE soon, stay tuned.

I think Linda could possibly win the election though, she may have a chance. Maybe bad publicity with the WWE will help her win, think about it! After all, Jesse Ventura’s background with WWE helped him win as governor of Minnesota, right?

Thought: Why Mick Foley prefers to stay in TNA and not WWE…

Leave a comment

Will Mick Foley, the hardcore wrestling legend, ever return to the WWE again? No. I don’t think he will come back to the WWE anytime soon. A few years ago, Mick left the WWE because he had a fallen out with Vince McMahon, didn’t get along with him business wise. So Mick decided to hang up the WWE and go to TNA instead. There’s a few reasons why I don’t think Mick will return to the WWE anytime soon. First of all, Mick seems more happier over in TNA. Why is this? Because TNA wrestling is simply not a PG rating. TNA is aimed toward the adult audience. TNA allows Hardcore wrestling with a lot of blood. That’s what Mick Foley is known for. He’s known for doing brutal hardcore matches that are a real bloodfest. TNA seems to be about that lately and that’s why Mick stays over there. WWE didn’t allow him to do the hardcore wrestling thing anymore ’cause they banned it in WWE ’cause of the PG rating.

Secondly, another reason Mick prefers to stay over in TNA is because the traveling schedule is not as hectic as WWE. TNA performs one show a week so that means less traveling and more time for themselves. Mick gets to write more of his books and spend more time with his family. Thirdly, another reason Mick prefers to stay in TNA is because a lot of his former WWE/WCW superstar friends are working over there.

I’m sure the WWE would welcome Mick back anytime he wants, because Vince McMahon still likes him. A few weeks ago on RAW, they plugged Mick’s book, “Countdown to Lock Down” which is a decision made by Vince. So Vince obviously has no bad blood against Mick at all. I would like Mick to come back to WWE, but to be honest, TNA is a good place for him to be. If he came back to WWE, the writers will mess up his character like usual. I sometimes watch TNA wrestling just for Mick Foley, not for the other wrestlers on there. Mick is a hero of mine and an inspiration. He’s one of the best wrestling performers and a good mic worker/speaker.  I wish Mick nothing but the best so I’m not worried about him returning to WWE.

If Mick does happen to return to WWE in the future, maybe if he’s the RAW anonymous GM after all this time, that’s cool, but I don’t see it happening. Mick is doing good in TNA and he belongs there now.

Report: WWE will soon announce big changes that will soon happen in 2011…

Leave a comment

Reports all over the wrestling world, are saying that the WWE are making huge changes for the company for all wrestling shows. The changes will happen in 2011 but they are being kept under wraps for now. See the article, here.

This will be a major shakeup, something HUGE. What could the huge shake up be? Here are some possibilities that people are throwing around:

  1. WWE could go back to PG-14 – Go back to bloody violence and half naked women with lots of cleavage. ( I hope this will happen but I doubt it, merchandise sales are flying high and you see a lot of children at all RAW/SD shows, so I don’t see them dropping the PG rating)
  2. Vince buys TNA? (Nice idea, but not a chance this will happen. Sorry)
  3. RAW/SMACKDOWN could merge into one brand to end the roster split. (Possibly, but I don’t see this happening ’cause of too many superstars, won’t make enough room to perform in one show)
  4. WWE will get their own wrestling cable channel to air RAW/SD and all WWE shows. (Not a chance this will happen, ever. USA has always been RAW’s home, Smackdown just moved to SyFy, so I doubt Vince will get his own WWE channel. WWE do have their own history channel which is only available for satellite TV, I believe?

Whatever the shakeup is going to be, I’m looking forward to it. You just never know what Vince McMahon and the staff at WWE Headquarters would come up with.

Report: WWE blames low rating for last Monday’s RAW show on Randy Orton…

Leave a comment

Last Monday’s RAW didn’t do very well in the ratings. The ratings were very low this week. Usually RAW ratings are good, but WWE is failing fast. Who does the WWE blame the low ratings on? Yep that’s right, Randy Orton. See the article, here.

Of course, they would blame it all on him. I don’t blame it on Randy Orton ’cause the fans are starting to like him now. He’s becoming a babyface, so the ratings aren’t his fault at all. What do I think happened to the ratings???

First of all, everyone’s probably sick of seeing WWE sticking their dicks up John Cena’s ass. Cena getting too much screen time, hogging the main events. Almost every RAW episode ends with Cena being the hero. Sick of it, sick of it, sick of it. Secondly, everyone’s sick of this RAW anonymous GM already. Thirdly, the reason no one watches RAW anymore is because all the iconic superstars are gone: No Rock, No Stone Cold, No Mick Foley, No HHH, No Jim Ross being the announcer, No more Dave Batista, etc. You get the drill. Maybe people are getting tired of celebrity guest hosts and getting tired of the PG rating. Also getting tired of the Nexus storyline.

Don’t blame on Randy Orton, WWE. Stupid! He’s just a guy doing his job, getting paid to perform for the fans.

Thought: WWE doesn’t suck!!!

Leave a comment

I see so many people slamming the WWE. Accusing them of being a bunch of phonies and saying how fake they are, and how they suck at everything they do. They are fake and scripted of course. They are entertainment. Like them or not, they are sports athletes. No matter what you think of them, they are athletes. The wrestling is fake, but as I always say, injuries do happen for real sometimes just like you can get injured on any job. I don’t care what anyone thinks about professional wrestling. Gotta give them the respect they deserve, ’cause they work very hard to keep their companies alive today. They are really good business and marketing people. They are better at marketing than almost every company out there. They sell out almost every arena shows, they get strong TV ratings and high PPV buy rates still. I give the WWE, a whole lot of respect. 100%. Like them or not, they do a good job entertaining people.

These guys travel every week non stop, no seasons off. They work hard, all year round, every day. Do they suck for that? I give all the performers respect because a lot of them don’t do wrestling for money. Why do they do wrestling? Because they simply love it. They are addicted to professional wrestling and huge wrestling fans just as much as we are. They may have went back to the PG rating, but you know what? The PG rating doesn’t bother me anymore. It’s actually a good move.

I get made fun of all the time for my love of professional wrestling. You know what? I’m cool with that. I enjoy what I want to enjoy. I’ve been watching professional wrestling for years, ever since I was a child. I still treat professional wrestling as a passion of mine. The WWE is a powerful company ’cause Vince is a great promoter and one of the best businessmen around. He’s a very intelligent guy. I still watch WWE ’cause I respect them. You should too, even if you’re not a fan of this brand. People call the superstars and performers fakes, but they didn’t get signed to the WWE overnight. These superstars had years of training and learning wrestling before they got to WWE. To me WWE is very special ’cause they need to entertain families and people around the world. They work very hard for what they do. So give them the respect they deserve. They still do a good job putting on shows even if it’s a PG rating.

Tonight’s “Night of Champions” PPV was good. Got some of my predictions right and some wrong. Kane won against Undertaker like I said. Randy Orton is now WWE Champion. I’m happy WWE gave the title win to someone else this time. It was getting kind of boring seeing John Cena win almost every ppv. It’s nice to finally have a little change for once! I loved the ppv. More on this tomorrow.

Thought: I think the RAW anonymous GM is the Ultimate Warrior, here’s why…

Leave a comment

Brock here, thinks the RAW anonymous GM is no one other than the Ultimate Warrior. I’m 100% sure it is. I think this is my final pick and my final prediction. I used to think it was going to be the Rock, but no, it’s not gonna be the Rock. The Rock is too busy filming movies.

Why the Ultimate Warrior? Well pay attention to the storyline. All the clues and hints are pointing directly at the Ultimate Warrior. When Vince McMahon first announced there is a RAW anonymous GM, Vince said, he would have “Ultimate control”. In other clues, the anonymous RAW GM said he doesn’t care for The Undertaker and Bret Hart. Remember, the Warrior is no fan of them in real life. Also, notice how the Anonymous GM seems to be busting on Sheamus a lot? Ever wonder why? Maybe it’s because Sheamus has the nick name, “The Celtic Warrior”. Those are some hints. The Anonymous GM seems to be getting on Chris Jericho for the past couple of weeks. Why is this? It’s because the Warrior and Chris Jericho never feuded before in the history of wrestling. Chris Jericho likes to pick on the legends of wrestling and if Warrior was brought in, imagine Chris not liking it.

What about another clue? Well, if you watch RAW in the beginning of the intro theme, they keep showing classic footage of the Warrior in the open title sequence of RAW. Is that a hint that he’s about to make a huge return?

Keep in mind that the Ultimate Warrior and Vince McMahon had a long history, yes, they never got along too well in the past. There is a reason that the Warrior was being kept anonymous because of his history with Vince McMahon, an off public feud. The Warrior must of patched things up quietly with Vince behind the scenes of wrestling to sign Warrior back to the WWE.

I think the Warrior would come in as a babyface, not as heel. The Anonymous GM hasn’t been so nice to the Nexus, Sheamus and Jericho lately. He seems to be doing good for the good guy wrestlers. When Warrior comes in, he would feud with Jericho for a long while, then maybe Sheamus ’cause of his “Celtic Warrior” name. Warrior would continue to feud with the Nexus, giving them matches that they don’t want fight against. Then Vince McMahon would return to have a long feud with Warrior to try to fire Warrior or force him to retire like he did to Ric Flair. There could also be a Bret Hart return to feud with Warrior at some point too and maybe have a match together at the next Wrestlemania?

Yep, so this is who I think the RAW anonymous GM is. The Ultimate Warrior, gotta be. All the clues are pointing directly at him, can’t you see it?

Cool Video: The Kayfabe Killers protest against WWE’s PG rating…

Leave a comment

There are these two young guys who started this controversial youtube page, that is becoming a hit in the wrestling world. They like to make parodies of WWE, making fun of the companies PG rating and how WWE is destroying the business with it. While their youtube channel is made for all in good laughs and fun, the page is real serious in a way too. As their goal is protesting the WWE PG rating. Their channel is quickly catching the attention of the wrestling community.

Enjoy these videos. These guys do a great job, I’m impressed. Oh, for those who don’t understand what the word, “kayfabe” means, it’s a wrestling term, meaning that real things can happen in wrestling that is not scripted. For example, the controversial Bret Hart Montreal screwjob, that was real, aka “kayfabe”. Other examples of wrestling kayfabe is the Hulk Hogan vs. Macho Man feud over this Miss Elizabeth storyline was inspired by real life events between them. The Vince McMahon steroid trial. The Mick Foley vs. Ric Flair off TV public feud. The Undertaker getting burned for real on a ppv event. See, not all wrestling is fake, sometimes some of this stuff can be real which ends up in kayfabe.

Report: Daniel Bryan, blogs about his WWE return at Summerslam…

Leave a comment

Former Nexus member, Daniel Bryan, was released from WWE a few months back. During those months he’s been gone, it disappointed WWE fans. Fans chanted his name during matches on RAW while he wasn’t working for the company. After his fanbase popularity, WWE had no choice but to re-sign him back to the company.

Read Daniel Bryan’s blog here, he thanks his fans for the support while he was gone from WWE:

He seems like a cool guy! I see him becoming a big main eventer very quickly, Daniel Bryan, future WWE Champion we have here!

I did watch Summerslam by the way. It was okay, nothing special.

Thought: Bret “The Hitman” Hart also might turn heel and join Nexus tonight at Summerslam…

Leave a comment

Other than John Cena might be the possible WWE superstar to turn on Team WWE and join Nexus tonight at Summerslam, there is also another possibility. Bret “The Hitman” Hart could also turn heel and join Nexus to become the group’s leader.

I know you’re thinking, “Would never happen, Bret is too much of a legend”. True, but think about why it would make sense if Bret becomes Nexus leader.

What is the reason? Simply because it would be Bret’s way of getting back at Vince McMahon and WWE. Bret could continue to feud with Vince with Bret being leader of Nexus. Vince and the WWE seems to always bring “The Hitman” down, so Bret joining Nexus would be his payback. Vince is always saying, “Bret screwed Bret”, Bret joining Nexus would give Bret more power over WWE. The Nexus needs that star power leader like I said before, Bret might be the perfect choice since Hulk Hogan was leader of NWO. See what I mean?

I think Bret turning heel would be interesting. Bret would grow tired of Vince trying to end his career, so Bret joins Nexus to try and end WWE. If Bret joins Nexus, that would make Vince return to TV to try and battle Nexus with Bret being leader. See how it would all makes sense? If Bret is leader, it would bring Triple H back to feud with him too.

I will be watching “Summerslam” tonight just for something to watch on TV. I’m sure it will be a good ppv. Maybe the RAW anonymous GM will be revealed tonight too? We’ll wait and see.
