Pip & I are kicking it up a notch this year and we’ve come up with a way to make the HOF ceremony drinkable. Last year was OK at best with several inductees talking WAY too long. This year we’ll be prepared. Posting this from my phone so apologies in advance. 1 drink per head lick 1 drink for every “ooh yeah” 3 drink per diety thank you 1 drink per person crying during Connor … Continue reading
Reports are coming out from TMZ and other news sources that on tonight’s edition of Monday Night RAW, the WWE will announce its first entry into the 2015 WWE HOF Class and it will be none other than Randy “Macho Man” Savage! This is YEARS too late in my book but I’m happy that it appears as if it’s going to happen. I posted this plea directly to Vince and crew back when Randy passed … Continue reading
Just days after he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, the Ultimate Warrior has passed away at the age of 54. The story broke last night just after midnight when real life WWE Chief Operating Officer and WWE Superstar Triple H announced the news via Twitter. Warrior, who was born Jim Hellwig but legally changed his name to simply Warrior in 1993, was on RAW Monday night for the first time in years. … Continue reading
There are some topics that will always start an argument. The most universally known of these are politics & religion (hence the reason I rarely talk about them in public). Another I’m learning… is music. I posted the following status the other day on my Facebook page which set off quite a bit of a discussion: Below is the discussion that was spawned. The only thing that I’ve edited out are people’s last names: I’ve … Continue reading
It’s with a heavy heart that I have to say goodbye today to one of my all time favorite wrestlers – The “Macho Man” Randy Savage. Randy (real name Randall Poffo) passed away earlier today after a car accident. Apparently he had a heart attack at the wheel while driving. He was 58 years old. Randy Savage, best knowing for his time in the WWF with his wife/manager Miss Elizabeth, was one of the best … Continue reading
As we have for many years, Pip and I got together (once again this year with my brother Marko) to watch WrestleMania 27 and attempt a great feat… The Beeramid. As always, we had our list of rules to govern the night’s action. We were ready and willing… but were we able? At this point I don’t think the first beer had even been popped. Truly the faces of the optimistic as we knew (but … Continue reading
These types of lists typically come out at the beginning of the year. I’m all for giving convention the middle finger so I’m doing it in the day after St. Patrick’s Day. Got a problem with that? 🙂 Part of why I keep this blog is as some sort of “outlet” for my creative juices. Another is that in this day and age this is about the only “cool” way for a guy to keep … Continue reading
I’ve often said that one of my least favorite wrestlers of all time is the WWF’s Koko B. Ware. (The character that is… I actually enjoyed some of his earlier non-Birdman work). This is a dude that’s in the WWE Hall Of Fame and I can’t for the life of me figure out why. He was essentially a jobber that never rose above mid-card status. Dude would come to the ring with his bird Frankie … Continue reading
WrestleMania XXVI will take place on March 28th in Arizona. I’m happy to say that after working through some logistical issues, Pip and I will once again renew our Beeramid tradition! As with years past, we have created these “rules of engagement” which will help us to construct that glorious structure. The last time Pip and I got together we came dangerously close to “one night one case” and I’m thinking March 28th just may … Continue reading
Pip, my brother and I got together and carried on our tradition of watching WrestleMania together. This was the 25th anniversary of the show so were expecting big things and a great show. What we got (with a couple of exceptions) was neither. Overall I’d have to say it was a pretty bad show with just a couple of high spots – certainly not what we were expecting from the biggest show of the year… … Continue reading
