Had a bit of a family health emergency (nothing serious but it came out of nowhere) so I’ll be running back and forth to the hospital for a bit while taking care of my five month old.  I’m not sure what I’ll be able to do and Survivor Series might have to be postponed.  I’m very sorry about the delay but it’s out of my hands.

Thank you all for everything and even if you’re not from America, I hope you got to spend some time today with people you care about.  I can’t thank you all enough for sticking with me for however long you’ve been here as it’s a special feeling to be able to do something like this for a living every day.  It’s awesome to be able to do this and I’ll be doing it for as long as I can.  Thank you all again, as always, very much.

It’s that time again, as I’ll be starting the Survivor Series countup starting this Saturday.  Each day I’ll be posting a review of a past Survivor Series, but I’ll be doing two new versions.  One of them will be the 2021 edition, but you get to pick the other.  Any of them are eligible save for the following (which I’ve either done recently or done enough over the years):

1995
2003
2006
2007
2020
2021

So a company has approached me about a partnership which would be rather beneficial to everyone. In short, they would take over the technical side of the site, including redesigning things (both on desktop AND mobile) to make it far more user friendly and optimized. In short, as anyone who has been around me for any length of time can tell, I am in no way a tech guy and have no idea what I’m doing in that area. Having someone else handle that for me would be REALLY helpful and in theory would free up some time, allowing me to do more reviewing instead of dealing with everything else.

One important thing: I would maintain 100% control of the site and in no way, shape or form be told what I can and can’t do. Barring a major change in my life, I can’t picture ever selling the place or letting someone else have any say in how I review things around here. This would ONLY be for the tech side/advertisements.

The partnership would also help me out financially, though it would include some more ads on the site. I will have final say on the amount of ads and, assuming I agree to all of this, I won’t let it get out of hand as I can’t stand that myself and wouldn’t want to be here. Odds are we would be seeing some ads every X number of paragraphs of a review and a video that pops up in the corner (and can be closed) or something similar. The place absolutely will not be crawling with ads and if it becomes too much, I’ll pull some of them off, for everyone’s sake.

I’m not sure on if I’ll do this and I’d like to hear from you all. At the end of the day, if this place doesn’t work for you, there is no point in it being around and I want you to be happy with it. This is something that would make the place look/function far better and would help me be able to do more stuff. If that is ok with you all, I’m leaning towards going through with it, but I am absolutely willing to listen to reasons why I shouldn’t.

Let me know what you think and thank you as always.

I got it for free for answering a survey for them and I’m not going to use it.  I’ll send the code to whoever comments first on this completely free, no strings attached.  I’ve tried the code and it works.

So I took in the Lexington Legends game last night.  The Legends are co-owned by former MLB star Brandon Phillips, who has a certain wrestling wife.  It happened to be Phillips’ birthday last night and his wife seems to have been there to see him.  I was down in the concourse between innings and ran into someone.

Very nice lady who seemed pleased that someone recognized her. Granted being taller than I am, the biceps, the hair and the AEW shirt tied around her waist were some hints.

It’s that time again. We are coming up on Summerslam and that means I need to redo some shows. As usual, I’m going to let you pick one of them, as I’ll be doing the 2021 edition but need an older show as well. You can pick whatever you want, save for the following, which I’ve either done too often or recently:

1998

2001

2006

2007

2020

Vote in the comments below, with the Count-Up starting on Sunday!

Have to spend some time in the hospital, though the wife and I will be coming home with someone new later this week.  I have no idea when I’ll be able to get the weekly shows done but I’ll see what I can squeeze in.

So I’ve been stuck in Houston for about nine hours and won’t be getting back to Louisville until around 11:15 local time, followed by about an hour and fifteen minute drive back to the house.  Since I’m on about 90 minutes sleep, odds are NXT won’t be up tonight.  I apologize in advance in a hope to avoid further emails saying:

Wrestlemania is over. Get up off yo lazy a** and get back to work!!!!

For clarification, I believe that was due to me not answering a question in less than six hours.  And yeah it’s probably petty to mention this but it’s been a long day.

I’ve got most of Stand & Deliver up and then I’ll start plowing through the pile again tomorrow.

Thank you again for your patience with me.

I’m heading back to Dallas for this year’s Wrestlemania and I’ve got a pretty packed scheduled. As a result, I won’t have anything up immediately after any shows until next week, but I’ll try to get up some quick thoughts on each show that I take in. I’m flying this year so things should be back to normal on Tuesday, when I’ll start knocking down everything that I’ve missed over the weekend, plus all kinds of shows from outside the major companies.  I should have some downtime on Sunday and Monday so I’ll try to squeeze in what I can (hotel wi-fi permitting).

I’d like to thank all of you for being so supportive over the years. I get to go on these trips to shows because you stick with me and it has absolutely changed my life in so many ways. This is what I get to do for a living and you have no idea how thankful I am to all of you who read my babbling about wrestling every day. Thank you all so very much.
