About Me

About Me:
I am a 26-year long wrestling fan who has been following the wrestling industry as a fan. Initially, I was just a die-hard wrestling fan; I cheered the bad guys, booed the bad guys, and followed both WWE and WCW during the height of the Monday Night Wars of the 1990s. As my fandom evolved as I personally evolved, I continually started to question a lot of what happened in front of me. It's human nature to question, as consumers, what we actually are consuming. Is this good to me? What am I liking here? What am I not liking? In essence, we are all, in one aspect of our lives or another, an arm-chair quarterback. So, if someone says "You're nothing but an arm-chair quarterback," well, the answer is... Yep!
So, after all these years of watching wrestling, I have opinions about matches, events, decisions, and the general direction of wrestling companies in general. This will be a weekly post of my thoughts on what is happening. It is not meant to be all-encompassing; rather, it is just a review of the events that catch my attention and are worthy of posting about. There are going to be reviews of wrestling events on here weekly as I get a chance to watch them. I'm going to avoid the star rating system on a regular basis as I don't particularly think that matters from fan to fan. I'm going to simply try to tell you what I liked and what I really didn't like. If I ignore it, that means it didn't leave that much of an impression on me or didn't cause me to lose my mind.
I am also going to include weekly throwback matches for you to check out, which will be called "Rewind" matches. These aren't always going to be the cream that will rise to the top (OOOH YEAH). Rather, they will just be significant or fun matches that I think wrestling fans would appreciate.
This is starting off as a blog. If this blog becomes more popular, I may transition this into including a weekly podcast. I'm looking to start a journey, one I hope to have your support on. I welcome any constructive comments or feedback. And share this with your friends at will, especially your fellow wrestling fans.
Thank you for reading, and I hope you continue to follow along.

WWE Stomping Grounds 2019 Review

What's up everyone, It's the sequel to WWE Super Showdown as WWE presents the first ever Stomping Grounds event. Will this be an annual thing or go the way of "Great Balls of Fire?" We'll find out later. Anyways, stay here throughout the night if you are reading live (or keep reading if you are seeing this afterwards)  as I am providing live thoughts of the show. WWE Stomping Grounds Tacoma, WA June 23, 2019 Pre-Show - A preview is shown of Dolph Ziggler vs. Kofi Kingston in a Steel Cage Match. This doesn't feel like a WWE Championship match. Rather, it feels like a Raw 2011 mid-card match for the United States Championship. And worse at that. At least 2011 had Vickie Guerrero at ringside yelling "EXCUSE ME!" - In a cool bit, Booker T is in the steel cage showing off the cage for the pre-show audience.  That was a cool visual. - Coach is so much better on the Kickoff Panel than he ever was behind the announce table. If WWE does ge...

WWE TLC 2018 Review- Tables and Ladders and Chairs, Oh My!  

        HERE WE GO!    Pre-Show   1) WWE Cruiserweight Championship   Buddy Murphy (champ) vs. Cedric Alexander   They started this match early. Apparently, they wanted just as many fans in the arena as there usually are in 205 Live matches for this to give it the authentic feel.   The bell rings. A lot of tie-ups and switches to start up the match to a good reaction from the crowd. A Loud 205 Chant. Alexander takes down Murphy to the floor. Really good back and forth action here with both men moving quickly. Alexander catches Murphy with a dropkick for a 2 count. BIG KNEE to the head of Alexander sends him to the floor. Murphy flies off the top rope and hits a Meteora (maybe that’s what they were going for?) for a 2 count. Murphy has the advantage for a few moments, including a power choke on the corner on Alexander. He jumps off it to eat a SUPERKICK to the chest. Crowd seems invested in the matc...

WCW Spring Stampede 1994 Review- WCW At Its Best + Flair/Steamboat In Another Classic

It's WCW in early 1994. We're now working up the hype for the eventual debut of Hulk Hogan to the company. This seems like the final last gasp of what WCW was prior to Hogan's debut with the company. Tonight, we are getting WCW World Champion Ric Flair vs. Ricky Steamboat 5 years after their classic feud (covered on UnWrest Focus earlier). We are also getting International World Champion Ravishing Rick Rude vs. Sting. We also have Steve Austin defending his U.S. Championship against The Great Muta! And Cactus Jack and Maxx Payne go to war with The Nasty Boys in a Chicago Street Fight. Here we go! Mean Gene Okerlund welcomes us to the show as fireworks go off. We're in the Rosemont Horizon in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. Aaron Neville sings the National Anthem holding on to as many harmonies and vowels as he can. Tony Schiavone and Bobby Heenan put over the main event. 1) Johnny B. Badd vs. Diamond Dallas Page (w/ Diamond Doll) Badd comes out dressed like ...
