D-X is Back

There used to be a time when everyone I meet would get a “suck it” gesture from me. I know I look like a freaking idiot but I really didn’t care. I really liked what Degeneration X (D-X) stood for. They’re just a group who doesn’t care about anything or anyone. They are often seen […]

WWE = NBA?

If you have been following the NBA finals like I am then you should have a couple of questions at the back of your mind after Game 5 of the NBA Finals.
1. Can the NBA be rigged?
2. How can one person have more free throws than the whole opposing team?
3. Was that really a foul?
4. […]

Taylor-Wright-Draw

The most recently concluded fight was that of Taylor and Wright that ended in a somewhat “controversial” draw. Of course after the fight both managers/trainers went on defending their own prized fighters and telling the press that they should’ve won.
Typical.
No, I haven’t watched the fight yet. But if there is one thing I don’t like, […]

ECW is Alive!

It’s alive.
I say that with a Doctor-Frankenstein-type of voice when he first saw his monster came to life. ECW or Extreme Championship Wrestling was supposed to be dead. It was done from all the turmoil it has gone through and the financial trouble it has faced. But when a door closes, you’re surely to find […]

Pacman Back From US Training

He’s back.
I think it was a good idea for Freddie Roach to put his food down and let Manny train in the States. Training here in the Philippines is just way too much of a distraction. Just to let you folks know how big Manny Pacquiao is here in the Philippines, I’ll list some of […]

Father-Son Wrestling Duos

In the spirit of celebrating Father’s Day, here are the famous father and son duos in wrestling.
Cowboy Bob and Randy Orton. You’ve seen both of them recently in Raw or Smackdown. Bob has always been there for his son. Even when Randy tried going up against the big name opponents like The Game HHH and […]

Lazy Sunday

I really need to get a better Internet provider ‘coz the one I have right now ain’t doin’ the job. I just need to vent it out or I might randomly start choking people to death like the zombies in the movie Dawn of the Dead.
Don’t worry. I won’t eat them alive like what Mike […]

Wrestling Equals Entertainment

My friend was grinning from ear to ear when he learned that he was the friend I was referring to as my “obsessed” wrestling friend.
“Was that me you were talking about in your blog?” He asked. I told him, “Who else has a room that looks like a museum for WWE?”
He just laughs.
I told him […]

What Happened, Mike?

While flipping through the channels on a Friday night, I had the pleasure of catching one of my favorite shows on cable which is Late Night with Conan O’Brien.
What can I say? He’s just a funny guy. He reminds me of that nerdy guy in school who by some twist of fate actually made it […]

$622 US Dollars

I can see this coming soon; People running towards the coliseum, fans chanting the name of the boxer their rooting for, and the guy hitting the opening bell. Followed by the ringside announcer bellowing, “Are you ready to ruuummmbbblllleeeeeee…”
 
But before all that, let’s check how much it would cost to watch the Pacquiao vs Larios […]
