Wrestling is everywhere! A blog...

I guess I got some explaining to do. Yes, I am going to be talking about pro wrestling and I want to get things off my chest.

First, Evolve weekend

If you were following me and see my tweets, yes, I was tweeting Evolve 56 and 57. Although, mostly Evolve 56 then 57, because I got tired and nearly falling asleep watching Evolve 57...I feel embarrassed. I am sure you want to know my opinion about the weekend. Well, first, I would need someone to tweet to me a video clip of Chris Hero cutting a promo on Zack Sabre Jr, which Chris mocks Zack's accent, which to be honest, it's not that bad! *Insert laugh*

Anyway, I believe after this past weekend, things are really going crazy come Wrestlemania weekend. But, I will admit, besides Drew Gulak calling Chris Hero a 350lb Kung Fu turkey, because of what Chris did in a previous Evolve show, by using a bag of ice that Chris taped for I was sure to ice his elbow, that caused Drew to call Chris a name. I am glad Drew Gulak did not curse. That was from Evolve 57.

Sure, I am looking forward to be watching those matches and even I will have to spend my iTunes gift card balance or using my Paypal account to watch. But, I will go over the matches for Evolve 58, 59, Mercury Rising, and I don't ever mention this, but, yes, the CZW show, which I am in shock.

I really enjoyed Fred Yehi. A really talented wrestler. I know that he lost this past weekend, but, I see a bright future in him. After all, Fred whooping Drew Gulak and stomping his hand remind me of William Regal broke Chris Hero's fingers. Yeah, I know I tweet that and I got a long story to say, but for those who are wondering, Go search on Google and type: William Regal vs. Kassius Ohno WWE NXT April 2013. If you saw that match, you would understand that during the match from almost three years ago in WWE NXT, Regal and Hero went at it and during the match, Regal broke Hero's fingers to prevent Hero to not to make a fist to use it to give Regal a rolling elbow. I was really freaking out thinking why would William Regal do that to Chris Hero? But, I know it was Regal's strategy. But, don't worry, Chris fixed his fingers. So, I would love to see more often of Fred Yehi and hopefully he can get respect. I am sure he could be competing in WWE NXT Global Cruiserweight Tournament.

Matt Riddle is a really talented wrestler, too. I know he got robbed at Evolve 56, thanks to Timothy Thatcher trying to end the match with a headbutt and going for the pin to retain the Evolve Championship, but, I am surprised he got Chris Hero to tap out in a triangle hold, at Evolve 57, that I used to see that from The Undertaker in WWE. I know that Riddle is trying to win the Evolve title from Timothy Thatcher because of a deal he has with William Regal. If you want to know, William Regal made a deal with Matt Riddle. If Riddle can beat Thatcher and win the Evolve title, Regal will offer Riddle a WWE contract. I saw that on twitter as how it was said of those who were attending the show live. Matt did demand a rematch from Timothy and he agreed.

Zack Sabre Jr got more work to do come Dallas next weekend. I know he will be wrestling against Chris Hero at WWN Mercury Rising on April 2nd, but, seeing him wrestling at Evolve 56 and 57 proves that he is ready, but, since Chris was on commentary for Zack's match against Johnny Gargano at Evolve 56, Chris feels that Zack needs to have a few more beatings before they go at it. What? Those are his words, NOT MINE! So, we will see as what Chris said, because of what Zack did for the Evolve weekend.


Two, CZW Proving Grounds

So, I want to talk about CZW Proving Grounds, which it's tomorrow night. CZW has announced on their twitter account that a few matches have been change. First off is Tim Donst, which he was suppose to be facing against Danny Havoc, but it change to against Sozio. I don't know much of Sozio, except for he did follow me and then unfollow me on twitter for no reason, but, I am favoring Tim Donst to win. Some other matches have been change including Nation of Intoxication vs. Scarlet & Graves, John Gresham vs. B-Boy, The return of Alexander James, Matt Tremont will defend the CZW World Championship against Devon Moore in a TAIPEI & BARBWIRE BOARD DEATHMATCH! All information can be seen on CZW twitter account and the CZW website.


Three, More Than Mania Shows

I been having a sort of a meltdown due to CZW announced a match that it's going to be nuts and I am maybe going to watch it, if Morethanmania.com is going to update their website to see if it will be watched on WWNLive or the FITE app, since I do not have a ROKU account.

Fourth, WWE Global Cruiserweight Tournament

I found out on the WWE Global Cruiserweight Tournament and really confused about this. But, it was announced by William Regal, that the all United States qualifying matches will be taking place at Evolve Wrestling. I don't know if that means just Evolve wrestlers or are we going to see NXT wrestlers too on the show? If so, I have a very bad feeling in the pit of my stomach, Austin Aries, who is on WWE NXT, could be returning to Evolve Wrestling. I don't know why I am center on him. But, I know that he could be one of those in the tournament, including some in Evolve Wrestling like Drew Gulak, TJ Perkins, and Johnny Gargano. I don't know what else or who else is going to be in, but, I suggest to look further onto William Regal's twitter account or the WWE NXT twitter account.

I know that it was talked about on Wrestling Heads Radio yesterday afternoon and no one knows who will be in it. But, I am sure this could be the case. If anyone else who could be in it, it got to be Zack Sabre Jr. I know that he has a few matches coming up in Dallas and he also has a match against Kurt Angle in June, but, I am sure Zack could be in it.


Okay, that's all for now.

AIW reveals first show of 2016 and Ethan Page is in a Trial Series?

Okay, I made a promise in my last blog and I am here to tell you that Absolute Intense Wrestling's first show of 2016 is called, Don't Feed Us After Midnight on February 12 and somehow there might be one match could be announced, but, it is not official as of yet.

The flyer for it features Bunkhouse Buck and Col. Robert Parker, who if I am not mistaken, used to managed and team up with the now founder of Global Force Wrestling, Jeff Jarrett during 1988 (tagging) and 1998 (managing). Bunkhouse Buck is the original member of the Stud Stable.

Here is the flyer from AIW's Facebook page:

So, it's possible that the first match is a tag team match rematch from last month between Bunkhouse Buck and Jock Samson (With Col. Robert Parker) vs. Dick Justice and Marion Fontaine. The possible match came on a promo by Dick Justice. Here is the video:

I don't know as of yet. But, I will check with AIW on Facebook. There will be more matches announced at a later time, especially I want someone to kick Ethan Page's ass, because of last month's cheating victory with a FIREBALL?

Yes...I found out thanks to Pat Lucey. But, who did Ethan Page wrestled last month at AIW Keep The Change You Filthy Animal?

Yes, Tim Donst. I am so awful. I got this from twitter...okay, it was from Donst's twitter account!

From what I could tell, Ethan used a fireball to get the victory. I haven't heard much from Donst since last month, since he tweeted about Motörhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister passing. If all means necessary, Tim Donst is recooperating from getting a beating from Joe Gacy at CZW Cage of Death, almost getting into a accident, but damage the car he was driving, and taken a fireball from Ethan Page. Then again, I did something for Tim Donst for Christmas. Also, I found out that Tim did won some tag gold with John Gresham. 

So, if next month would be necessary, I would like to see if Tim Donst gets another chance against Ethan Page. But, if Page is going to play chicken, can I suggest Ben Boone to go after Page, please?

Yeah, sorry Gregory Iron. I think you need to give Mr. Boone a chance.

What the heck did I say that? I am older then Ben!

Well, speaking about Ethan Page, at the Evolve Weekend, he got three matches...A trial series. It was requested by Ethan Page via video:

So, I got an e-mail from WWN as their alerts and it stated that it was granted. The matches are the following for Page:

Evolve 53: vs. PJ Black
Evolve 54: vs. Sami Callihan
Evolve 55: vs. A member of an eliminated tag team from the tag tournament

Here is the flyer featuring Ethan Page and his opponents for that weekend (courtesy of WWN):

For the third opponent, I am thinking it could be Bill Carr from Team Tremendous, Tommy End, Drew Galloway, or even Chris Hero that Page could be wrestling against. I know Page and Chris wrestled almost a year ago in San Jose, but, I am not sure if that would be the case if Chris and Tommy get eliminated on the first night. So, whoever it is, Ethan Page got his work cut out.

I will seek more information within the upcoming days of the shows.

Chris Hero not arriving at the Global League due to visa issue, Tim Donst's birthday, and so more...

I should done it as word got out, but a certain wrestler won't confirmed it. What am I talking about?

Chris...in Japan...who knows...visa issues.

Yeah, if you don't get that, it's Chris Hero who would or would not make it to the tournament, because my source, Puroresu Spirit says that he has visa issues, but, I wanted to him to confirmed it, but, I did not ask, because, well...to put it in a way to understand me, my heart skips a beat like AJ Lee comes out when she used to wrestles...um, bad ideal...if you know a better one, please send me a tweet...yeah. I don't know if this is true, but, I will go check on Twitter under the hashtag #noah_ghc. I do want to say that Puroresu Spirit said that he will be there. I really hope so.

Okay, I am not done being so nervous. Yes, because there is another thing that's making me so nervous, yet, I would do it anyway...heh. You see tomorrow is Tim Donst's 28th birthday and he's wrestling tonight at AIW Big Trouble in Little Cleveland in Our Lady of Mount Carmel,which it is in Cleveland. Tim will be wrestling against Louis Lyndon. If you want to know who Louis Lyndon is, he's related to Flip Kendrick...I believe twin brothers. I heard it from one of the AIW shows I really have, so please, don't get mad at me! Back to Tim. So, if you are going to AIW show, wish him a happy birthday, and if he ask, tell him it's me, Lindsie Starr.

But, if you can't make it, my suggestion is send Tim Donst a tweet tomorrow. He will be surprised. I am, because I owe him after sending him one for my birthday...heh, trying to fit like my friend Domi who is really liking Seth Rollins the WWE Champion.

Okay, speaking about WWE and also WWNLive, for those who started the rumors, your 15 minutes are up and you need to leave. I don't want it, unless I hear it from Gabe Sapolsky. For those who are wondering, there is a rumor that ends up being true, that Gabe Sapolsky and Triple H has an agreement that there will be much of a talent exchange, since it already started with Johnny Gargano and Tomasso Ciampa entering the WWE NXT Dusty Rhodes Memorial Tag Team Tournament and it will continue with Sami Zayn making an appearance at Evolve 49 and 50. For those who are going to take the story that is going around, it is Zayn's first appearance, but it is more like, his first appearance without the mask. You see, if you know who Sami Zayn was, you know he was once El Generico, and even though there were rumors to be said that the mask wrestler did retired, but, since I got so crazy sources, really counteract it, since it was revealed that he was spotted at the old FCW arena teaming most likely with Adam Rose and Chris Hero about a few years ago, when Rose was being crazy and Chris was really trying to continue his ways of what he done in the past, but, more evolved.

Also, don't blame me, because Cagematch.net, a website that is a huge database of wrestlers around the world, and they got everything down. So, they are my backup of proof: http://www.cagematch.net/?id=2&nr=1523&name=Sami+Zayn

Yes, so, I could be in trouble, but, don't blame me. Cagematch has proof. If you want to know, click that link above, go to matches to page two and scroll down. Last time Sami Zayn was in Evolve was Evolve 18 as El Generico.

I know, I said too much. But, you are wondering, what does that means with those who are in the WWN Live and those who are in other companies? Well, I am really sure that TNA is really letting go as much, since they are hanging by a thread, so, unless those wrestlers leave, it's a no. As, for those who are not committed, I am sure they are fine, but it is the matter of Chris Hero, since I know from sources, that Chris and Gabe are friends and I am really highly angry at Triple H for releasing Chris, so it's up in the air, which I am sure Gabe will book Chris at the next Evolve show, maybe tag team action with WWE's Cesaro? Yeah, I am pushing it, a Kings of Wrestling reunion at Evolve, so sue me! Yes, Cesaro would be wrestling by his real name, Claudio Castagnoli. Maybe six man tag if they add Wade Barrett. Oh dear, there goes the neighborhood.

Maybe, I need to pull back a little with the bookings and let Gabe handle it. Anyway, Evolve 49 and 50 are taking place tomorrow and Sunday.

Thanks for reading!

WWE are morons to do something real stupid as an article while they hide their stupid mistakes

I was just going through my Gmail and I went to see the latest from WWNLive Alerts for their upcoming shows, when I saw something that makes me livid, WWE post on their website an article about Ring of Honor and got the stories from Tyler Black, who wrestles currently in the WWE as Seth Rollins, since 2011, Bryan Danielson, who wrestles currently in the WWE as Daniel Bryan, since 2009, Claudio Castagnoli, who wrestles currently in the WWE as Antonio Cesaro, since late 2011, Colt Cabana, who used to wrestle in the WWE in 2008 as Scotty Goldman and best friend of CM Punk and host of the podcast, The Art of Wrestling, and Gabe Saplosky, the man who founded Ring of Honor, now owns Dragon Gate USA and Evolve Wrestling. One thing that in the article broke me down in tears is what Claudio Castagnoli said. This is what he said:


I had a show with a friend, and they had one of those do-or-die tryouts in New Jersey. I died, but I did well. I was brought back and competed against Nigel McGuiness in my first real ROH match and against Alex Shelley in my second. Then I was just kind of wrestling in Ring of Honor mostly for the ROH Pure Title against Nigel. When Chris Hero came in during the [Combat Zone Wrestling]-ROH feud, I turned on ROH and joined CZW. It was the first run of The Kings of Wrestling.

Claudio mentions his friend and trainer, Chris Hero, who was in WWE for 21 months as Kassius Ohno. I was shock that Claudio did not say, Kassius Ohno, but Chris Hero, I was in deep, yet, I remember that WWE really make me upset for releasing Chris, yet, he's mention in the article. What's worse is the photos that WWE posted on their website, had Tyler Black's feud of former Ring of Honor star and current TNA Wrestling Superstar and 4 time X-Division Champion, Austin Aries and Claudio's feud and reunion with Chris. It really hurts me. Even though, this article is a stupid way, since their stupid mistakes like releasing Chris, bringing back Batista, having a shitty Royal Rumble that I did not watch, yet I saw everything on my twitter timeline, and being so mean to the fans who bring posters of former WWE superstars, like CM Punk. In fact, this article that happen is a way to hide their stupid mistakes and should be ashamed about it. If there is any fan who wants to know about Ring of Honor, Chikara, Combat Zone Wrestling, Dragon Gate USA, Evolve, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, westside Xtreme wrestling, Pro Wrestling Noah, heck even Absolute Intense Wrestling or any of the wrestling promotions that house Claudio Castagnoli, Tyler Black, Bryan Danielson, Colt Cabana, Chris Hero, CM Punk, Nigel McGuiness, Austin Aries, Jimmy Jacobs, and others that I could list on here, including Tim Donst who follows me on twitter, search online, ask them or even me. Because I had to know about this as much, since 2009 when I had to look up on Bryan Danielson and finding where the late Lance Cade was up to, before he pass away in August of 2010.


Believe me on this, WWE needs to be ashamed on what they are doing.
