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

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…

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!!!

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!!!

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!

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.

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

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”.

Did Kurt Angle tease a future return to WWE??? That’s what it’s looking like…

Kurt Angle finally retired from TNA wrestling. Now it’s looking like he maybe coming back to WWE. If he is, it’s probably not for a full time run, probably part time ’cause Kurt never liked to work in wrestling full time… that was the reason why he worked for TNA in the past.

It’s looking like Kurt is finally making a WWE comeback. Kurt left WWE in 2006 so it was a long 10 year hiatus from the company. Could he be coming back? If so in what form? I think he’ll come back as a wrestler but maybe for one final match @ Wrestlemania 33 probably.

Who would Kurt feud against when he returns? I would like it if Kurt would feud with any of the new guys but it’s looking like that Kurt will come back to feud with the McMahon’s. So it’s probably gonna be Kurt Angle vs. Shane McMahon at WM-33? Kurt and Shane already had a match together at King of the Ring in 2001 but it be cool if they go at it again.

I like Kurt Angle. Always did. I’ve watched Kurt Angle a lot in WWE and I even watched him a lot when he was in TNA (I used to watch TNA wrestling a lot but quit watching that too).

I hope Kurt comes back ’cause that would be cool. He probably will. I miss the “You suck” chants.

WWE Network is surprisingly great, it’s a keeper!!!

Well I finished my 1 month free trial of WWE Network and to my surprise, it’s really good stuff so I think I’m gonna keep my subscription for sure. Over the past month that I’ve kept WWE Network, I’ve watched the first 16 Wrestlemania ppv’s on it. The WWE Network has every ppv they ever did on it so you can watch a lot of old school wrestling on there. Like I said, I’ve been watching all the old Wrestlemanias on there like the Wrestlemania shows in the 80’s and early 90’s. I’ve already seen all Wrestlemanias but it’s great to re-watch them all ’cause it’s fun to look back. Bring back memories of the old days of wrestling which is pretty much what “WWE Network” is here for so you can re-live the past.

I remember the old days of wrestling back in the 80’s and 90’s when wrestling used to be good. That was back in the days when they used to call it “wrestling” but currently they don’t call it “wrestling” anymore obviously.

I’m a lifelong wrestling fanatic so I think I’m definitely gonna keep “WWE Network”. It’s a nice streaming service. It’s not just a streaming service, it’s also a 24 hour wrestling channel, you can watch live TV on it too.

Last night I watched “WWE Payback” ppv on it and it was pretty good. “WWE Payback” was surprisingly a great ppv. Most every match was good on it except for the dumb McMahon segment. As for my thoughts on the wrestling business today, there are way too many new superstars I’ve never heard of before but lets just say that I’m a huge fan of AJ Styles and Kevin Owens. Those guys are awesome and we’re looking at future main eventers here. The wrestling business changes and evolves every now and then. Superstars come and go, that’s all there is to it.

I’ll always have a love and passion for the professional wrestling business. I’ll always be a fan. While Vince McMahon is a genius businessman and all, he’s just terrible at the writing part, though. Makes you wonder why RAW constantly loses ratings.

WWE Network is great stuff and if you’re a wrestling fan yourself, I’d recommend it.

WWE did a tribute for Chyna last night but…

… all they did was a video tribute for Chyna, that was it. The tribute video wasn’t that long and they didn’t show much on it. They didn’t even have all the RAW superstars at the top of the ramp to ring the bell either!

So I think it’s pretty obvious that Vince and Stephanie still hates Chyna.They just did the tribute video out of respect for the fans. Will they put her in the next “Hall of Fame” in 2017? I don’t know. We’ll have to wait and see. You can say what you want about Chyna but she did have a lot of accomplishments in the wrestling business. She helped started the iconic wrestling group, D-X… she also helped build up the women’s division in wrestling. Without Chyna there would have never been other popular Divas such as: Stacy Keibler, Trish Stratus, Lita, etc. Chyna helped make the WWE a lot of money. She really helped the business with her storyline with Eddie Guerrero. I remember all that stuff.

Some may accuse me of being a Chyna fan just because she died but nope, not true at all. I’ve been a longtime Chyna follower long before she died. I followed everything she did in her career over the years. After she retired from wrestling, I followed all of the online stuff she did in her youtube channel. I’ve been a longtime follower. I’ve seen everything she did in WWE.

Sure, Chyna may have said some pretty hurtful things about Vince, the WWE, Stephanie and Triple H a lot over the years… I can understand why they don’t want anything to do with her, understandable but she simply wanted to make amends and apologize to those she hurt. That’s all she wanted to do, ya know? She wanted to bury the hatchet with them and leave the past behind. She no longer wanted to continue to hold grudges with them if you know what I mean.

It’s pretty crazy to me that she tried to reach out to them but they never responded until now. Really, she tried contacting them herself but they wouldn’t take her calls.

I think Vince owes us an explanation for sure. Maybe get him on a podcast show and explain to us why he shut Chyna out.

WWE is being all nice to Chyna now ’cause they are trying get away with that they treated her like crap…

I still blame the death of Chyna on WWE all the way. My opinion still stands on that.

Read more on this well-written article on why Chyna dying was WWE’s fault…

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/tv/7095055/The-real-reason-why-WWE-fans-are-so-heartbroken-over-Chynas-death.html

This article said the same thing I said the other day. This article says that her real-life feud with WWE has gotten her into a depression so she started taking prescription meds because of it.

In the old days of WWE, Triple H started dating Stephanie while he was still engaged to Chyna so yeah… Triple H cheated on Chyna with Stephanie. That’s the only reason why Triple H’s career is so big right now ’cause he married the boss’s daughter. I’ve always believed that Triple H wouldn’t have gotten where he is in WWE if hadn’t married the boss’s daughter. It’s obvious, right? I mean think about it, right? Triple H is a 13 time WWE Champion. He’s always gotta be at every Wrestlemania even if he’s so-called “retired” from wrestling and now he’s the 2nd boss of WWE. Triple H is Vince McMahon’s right hand-man now.

Ya know, if Triple H married Chyna instead and if he was still married to Chyna… Triple H wouldn’t have gotten all that. It’s pretty obvious to me that the only reason Triple H married Stephanie McMahon (Vince’s daughter) is to help boost Triple H’s wrestling career and his plan worked. Honestly, I don’t think Triple H really loves Stephanie… he totally used her to boost his career. Triple H is a manipulator and would do anything to get what he wants.

Triple H claims that the reason Chyna is not in the Hall of Fame is ’cause he says that he’s worried that kids would look up her name in google and find out that she had a background in porn? Like Vince Russo said, the real reason they wouldn’t allow Chyna in the Hall of Fame is ’cause Stephanie McMahon doesn’t want Chyna in the Hall of Fame. Stephanie hates Chyna’s guts and she’s the one keeping Chyna out of the Hall of Fame. Vince McMahon is just giving Stephanie what she wants.

It’s all pretty crazy. After years of Vince, Triple H and Stephanie treating Chyna like she’s a pile of garbage… they all act nice to Chyna now that she has died? Fucking unbelievable! I thought it was pretty despicable and low of WWE. They treated Chyna like crap and now WWE finally acknowledges her after she died? It’s bullshit. All of it. Vince should feel ashamed of himself.

She tried to reach out to WWE many times, hoping to bury the hatchet but they never responded until now. Chyna should be treated with respect ’cause she really did help make WWE a lot of money. She still has a lot of fans that stuck with her even she stayed away from wrestling after all these years. She definitely did change wrestling and I think that’s the only reason why Triple H is mad at Chyna ’cause he’s jealous of her. Jealous that she changed the wrestling business and he didn’t. Gee, no wonder the WWE shut her out. Jealousy is a motherfucker ain’t it? No wonder Chyna left America for Japan.

Chyna wanted to meet with WWE hoping to resolve things and bury the hatchet but WWE wanted nothing to do with her.

I’m fed up with WWE and I think I’m about done supporting them. Not sure yet though. I’ll give them another chance. If they do a tribute show for Chyna on the next RAW and put her in the next Hall of Fame, I’ll continue to support them. If they don’t do any of those at all then it’ll be the last straw. I’ll be boycotting the WWE. I promise you that.
