I watched Wrestlmania XX tonight on practically a 72 hour delay. It was incredibly long, but I guess it’s where it all begins again, so it must be the best. A lot happened, some good, some bad. I saw some good stuff tonight, but nothing was really outstanding until the final match. The triple threat match between Benoit, Michaels and Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship was just outstanding. I knew what was gonna happen in most of the matches, including the final match, but it was still great watching it play out. I got nothing but respect for those 3. Other than that, everything else was pretty average. Undertaker’s return was way too overhyped and sorta let me down cause he’s not really Old School Undertaker, he’s more like Undertaker crossed with the American Badass. I don’t know. Maybe I just want it to be 1992 again.
Speaking of 1992, after Wrestlemania XX, I stumbled upon this old school WWF page. The kid who made the page is only slightly younger than me, so it can almost be seen through my eyes. I read it all and it brought back plenty of memories of all the great wrestling I grew up with. He is so true when he says that’s the best era in wrestling, because once that era ended, I stopped watching wrestling. Read that shit, it’s a good history.
Also in the world of wrestling, it turns out there’s gonna be a new draft this upcoming Monday Night RAW. The first draft was 2 years ago, and I guess things just didn’t work out. The two shows were always completely unbalanced with Smackdown pretty much only having Kurt Angle, The Undertaker and Brock Lesner. Now that Brock is leaving to try his hand in the NFL, Smackdown is in complete disarray, and I guess they’re gonna try and fix it. It should be interesting; I can’t wait to watch as I missed the first draft. So Monday will be the new draft, Tuesday The Rundown comes out and on April 2nd, Walking Tall comes out. Wrestling is all over the place, and I love it.
I’m currently watching: Tough Crowd
