Vince McMahon challenges Donald Trump and Kermit the Frog for Ice Bucket challenge… will they do it???

I know the Kennedy family had started this viral competition called the Ice Bucket Challenge as a way to help raise awareness to the ALS disease and donate money.

Celebrities and real people like all of us have been doing this challenge in social networking.

I have seen celebrity ice bucket challenges by Triple H, Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, Tyler Perry, William Shatner, Mark Zuckerberg, Brad Paisley, Keith Urban, Ronda Rousey and many others.

So far, I think Vince McMahon is the best one. I love how Vince wears the bucket on his head after he dumped the water and ice on himself. Vince does it in a gym? LOL!

Vince also challenges Donald Trump and Kermit the Frog which is funny. Will they do it? A lot of people think Trump won’t do it but I think he will. Trump has a bigger ego than Vince so he would want his bucket challenge to be better than Vince.

Will I ever do mine? I don’t know… nobody had the guts to challenge me yet or didn’t care to so I guess we’ll have to wait and see. I’m surprised nobody challenged me yet.

If Sting isn’t gonna wrestle Undertaker @ WM-31, this is who he’ll probably wrestle instead…

If the Undertaker isn’t able to wrestle at the next Wrestlemania and if he’ll be done, this is who I think Sting would wrestle against instead. That’ll be none other than Hulk Hogan. Sting vs. Hulk Hogan as the headlining main event for WM-31? That sounds like a Wrestlemania indeed!

Sting and Hogan knew each other for a pretty long time. They had plenty of matches together when they worked for WCW and Sting/Hogan had a match together in TNA. Why not have them two have a match for WWE???

Sure, Hogan’s health is not that great and he is aging but Sting is getting old too!!! I’m sure both of these guys are capable of putting on an incredible match together.

On another note, Sting vs. Hogan at a Wrestlemania would be very huge. I can’t think of no other opponent replacement other than Hogan. Sure… Triple H, John Cena, The Rock or Bray Wyatt won’t be a bad idea but it won’t be much of a draw. Sting vs. Hogan would draw in more ppv buy rates.

Sting is on the verge of retirement. Hogan is on the verge of retirement. Hogan is still planning one last match in WWE. Having them two wrestle each other at a Wrestlemania would be a perfect way for them to go out on a positive note.

Sting already named his opponent but he’s not saying who yet. It’s probably gonna be either Undertaker or Hogan.

The icon Sting is at San Diego Comic Con and here is the proof!!!

I guess this is a definite confirmation that the Icon Sting have finally signed a WWE contract after all these years of him avoiding the company. It’s a fact that Sting has never worked with WWE before. WWE have been wanting him for years and he just kept saying “No” until now.

In the instagram video above, there is Sting the man himself, the former WCW/TNA star. The man is a wrestling legend and he is finally making his way to the WWE. I’m sure it’s not gonna be a full time run for Sting… he’s probably just coming for one match at Wrestlemania 31, I would think.

Sting has probably signed a deal to appear in the next WWE videogame, he’ll probably release a new 3 disc DVD set of his WCW career, and he’ll probably perform on RAW until his Wrestlemania match.

Everybody wants Sting vs. Undertaker for WM-31 but that is pretty unlikely. Sting is probably gonna have his last match against Cena, Triple H or Brock Lesnar. Maybe Hulk Hogan too?

When will Sting make his RAW debut??? Probably not this coming Monday, I would think he would start performing on TV sometime before the next Wrestlemania.

I didn’t watch a lot of WCW but I did watch Sting a lot when he was in TNA. I like Sting. He’s a great performer and wrestler. They don’t call him the icon for nothing. Glad he’s finally on his way to WWE.

Why did Sting avoid WWE after all these years? They don’t have anything against each other. They were always friends and got along… it’s just that Sting had his own reasons. Maybe he wanted to wait for the right time? Now he feels that the timing is right. If you wanna know why he avoided WWE Sting explained it in interviews many times, youtube it.

Edit to add: Here’s another video of Sting talking about his WWE future…

WWE teasing a future transformation with company but what is it gonna be???

WWE just posted this cryptic teaser today. It’s mysterious and it will keep you guessing but there is a few clues, though. This means that the WWE is planning to transform the entire company. Fans are guessing a possible new logo and possible new title belt designs but they wouldn’t tease over something that small. Sounds like they are teasing something really big.

In my opinion, I think the transformation is gonna be a rating change. Is Attitude making a comeback? During the 90’s in the WWE was the Attitude Era where it was a TV-14 rating. Back in those days, that’s when it was called wrestling. The wrestling was good back then. The hardcore matches where they would use any weapon. Lots of blood. A lot of swear words. A lot of sex and women showing a lot of skin and cleavage. Will all that stuff be coming back?

I’d say it’s a huge possibility. Never say never on an Attitude comeback. That was when wrestling was great.

Why is the WWE possibly bringing the Attitude Era back? I think it’s because the PG era isn’t doing so well for them. WWE have turned into kids shows and a lot of longtime wrestling fans stopped watching WWE ’cause of it. That’s the reason I stopped watching WWE and took long breaks from watching it ’cause I can’t stand the PG rating. I can’t stand the John Cena show by having him win all the time. It grew tiresome for me.

I think it’s a great time for the WWE to bring Attitude back. A lot of the new wrestlers today deserve to experience that. It’ll be awesome if they bring back Attitude. I’ll start watching again if they do.

Seriously, I haven’t been watching WWE. Haven’t been watching for at least a year now. I haven’t been liking their creative direction and the matches these days suck. I will always respect and love the superstars though, I just want the good writing and good wrestling to come back.

I did watch Wrestlemania 30 earlier this year, however, and it was actually a pretty amazing show.

Warrior’s wife taking over inspirational teachings about life??? Seems so…

 

It seems Warrior’s wife who’s she calling herself, Dana A. Warrior, is taking over his online inspirational life teachings. We all know that Warrior was VERY deep into philosophy kind of like Ayn Rand but it’s looking like Warrior just passed the torch to Dana before he passed. Seems that Warrior has been teaching his “life” inspirations to his family and passed it along to them just like he passed this stuff to all of us. It’s looking like Dana will keep in touch with all of us. Look like Warrior taught her a lot and taught her to be strong even through the ups and downs in life. You think Dana will be in a emotional wreck for a while since Warrior passed but apparently not. It appears she stayed strong and happy like Jim Hellwig taught her. Warrior wanted people to be strong, happy and have a successful life and Dana is just keeping that inspiration going. It’s probably her way of getting through this difficult time.

This is pretty amazing stuff… this family.

Warrior’s death led me to do some research on steroid abuse…

If you want some facts that Anabolic steroids can affect the cardiovascular system, check out these links…

http://www.athletesheart.org/2013/06/anabolic-steroids-and-heart/

I don’t know about you but from what I’m reading, the side effects and dangers are kind of similar of what Warrior was feeling before his death. Before his Hall of Fame appearance, he could have been feeling sick for days and kept it for himself. Could this be why Warrior always had his hair short (’cause of fear of baldness and all that)? Could this be why Warrior had disturbing mood swings and short tempers on his youtube channel??? Is this why the man can be pretty weird sometimes?

Just making observations that’s all.

More on the Ultimate Warrior steroid debate…

Wow. I just watched that Nancy Grace vs. DDP interview that wrestling fans are complaining about. It’s quite interesting to say the least.

Anyway, I am still siding with Nancy that Warrior may have possibly died of steroid abuse. Ya know, I watch the Nancy interview with DDP… and when DDP and that other guy from WWE are making claims that Warrior looked “great” at the Hall of Fame appearance, I know they are pretty much lying as a way to defend Warrior. Other wrestlers and people from the WWE have seen Warrior backstage at the Hall of Fame and the RAW appearance… pretty much all of them said that Warrior wasn’t looking too good at all.

On top of that, Nancy listing all those wrestlers wasn’t really aimed at wrestlers who died of drugs/steroids. She was simply pointing out all the wrestlers who died at such a young age. Yes. Too many wrestlers died so young. It is controversial and it’s understandable why people would debate about it.

DDP claims that they all have had past steroid use and they no longer use ’em but if you watch Warrior’s interview on Hannity in the video below, Warrior just made a public confession on the show that he does use them but Warrior claimed that there is a huge difference between “use” and “abuse” when it comes to steroids. It seems like Warrior was trying to defend himself of his steroid use and he was trying to make it seem like it was okay to use steroids.

The officials claimed the autopsy report showed no signs of drugs or alcohol but they could be saying that just to settle down the steroid debate. Like I said, the Toxicology report still needs to come out. That’s when we will know.

It’s funny how the wrestling industry claims they don’t use steroids anymore when you know that’s full of shit. I bet wrestlers STILL use them to this day.

I think the reason wrestling fans get all upset over the steroid debate ’cause they simply can’t handle the truth. They don’t like hearing the fact that steroids may have possibly killed Warrior.

I’m still saying that Nancy Grace could be exactly right and wish people would stop attacking her. Like I said before, even if someone stopped using steroids… they can affect your health later in life.

If it turns out that the toxicology report shows that he had steroids in his system, expect the steroid debate to blow up in the media even more.

Once again, I hope steroids didn’t kill him at all but there’s a 90% chance that it did. There’s nothing disrespectful of calling out the use of steroids of people. It’s just the truth. It’s a serious problem in the bodybuilding and wrestling industry. Always has been.

DDP’s speaking voice sounds horrible, by the way. Are you sure he’s clean?

Warrior’s cause of death revealed… the autopsy report is out…

The autopsy of the Ultimate Warrior has been released today and it was discovered that Warrior died of cardiovascular disease. He had a heart problem.

http://abcnews.go.com/Sports/wireStory/ultimate-warrior-died-cardiovascular-disease-23322092

Now… this doesn’t necessarily confirm that steroids didn’t cause him to have heart problems. Steroid use CAN cause all kinds of heart problems. We still need to wait for the toxicology report to come out… that’s when they’ll find out if he had any drugs in his system. Whether he was still using steroids or not, past steroid use CAN come back at ya in the future. Steroids can give ya all kinds of health problems. Steroids are extremely dangerous and can kill ya.

I still hope that steroids didn’t kill him, though but still don’t be surprised if steroids was responsible.

Ultimate Warrior Collection DVD review…

Over the weekend, I watched the Ultimate Warrior Collection DVD set. I didn’t watch it all in one day. Friday, I watched Disc 1. Saturday, Disc 2. Sunday, disc 3.

The main reason why Warrior put out this DVD is ’cause like I said before Vince McMahon and others disrespected his legacy and acted like his past wrestling career was nothing special. That is why he never made it in the Hall of Fame until now. He didn’t want to get himself in the Hall of Fame until the wrestling business understood him. Now that they finally get Warrior, it’s the right time to get him in the Hall of Fame and release this DVD.

I would have to say that this is an amazing collection. It made me realize how much I miss the old days of wrestling. The old days of wrestling was amazing stuff. I remember watching most of this stuff as a kid as a lot of this stuff brings back memories. A lot of classic matches, promos and cool stuff on here.

In my opinion, Warrior was the best in the wrestling business. Guys like Hogan, Flair, Savage, etc. may have been great but Warrior had more personality than those guys. Warrior may have had a gimmick but he was a pretty realistic character. He was honest and very “positive”. That’s why this character inspires so many people. Warrior inspires people to be great in life just like him.

Warrior had many other great matches other than his Wrestlemania 6 match with Hulk Hogan. I thought his match with Randy Savage at Wrestlemania VII was one of his best matches too. His feud with Andre the Giant and the Undertaker was great stuff too.

This set is a must own for any wrestling fan, new or old. I was surprised on how honest this DVD was. It seems like this DVD was aimed at the “smart” fans ’cause it seems like that’s how Warrior was talking to on this DVD. When Warrior was introducing each match, you’ll hear him describe the behind the scenes stuff and you’ll hear him say wrestling terms like “heel”, “babyface”, “jobbers”, etc. Those words are smart fan terms. As usual Warrior is brutally honest.

It was a great DVD and I had a blast watching it. Man, I really miss the old days of wrestling. Today’s wrestling is garbage. It’s not the same anymore. I am an old-school guy. I like the 80’s wrestling and the 90’s Attitude Era. Those days were amazing. These days wrestling has turned into a dramatic soap opera for children and I can’t stand it.
