OMG Warriors! 💪🏻💙🧡

Yes, that’s the title today and you all will know why as a couple new firsts yet again I was not even aware of. All this time. All this time, I cannot believe it after these almost 10 years have gone by. Am I killing you with the suspense? OK, here they both are. We’ll start with OMG. Many faithful readers have known that expression widely used on these writings quite often, mostly way back but sometimes it makes rare appearances. It fit perfectly for this match today and when continuing reading~~~ you’ll get it. I would use it when explaining a funny Warrior moment I encountered or even a spiritual connection brought my way. It FINALLY gets to be part of the title as I barely had to think on this one. More on that in a moment.

The second one is that pic ⬇️ below. You will see an Ultimate Warrior blue shirt that became very popular 10 years ago after a LOOONG hiatus. Any guesses as to why? I can cue the “Jeopardy” theme, but I’ll wait a sec here. Well, I can’t read minds across these words so I will share as I do. LeBron James wore that * EXACT* shirt when the Cleveland Cavaliers won their 1st NBA title 10 years ago now against those Golden State Warriors. Yes, this has been mentioned multiple times and is in my book “ Spirit and Belief”, but I have a new reason today. I had only ever used HIM wearing that shirt as my cover photo for these writings the first few years or so. I had switched to my book which was the most obvious choice overtime! Never had I used a pic of the shirt by itself, but HAD to this week.

That shirt sold a bunch because many wondered who that guy was! LeBron was a huge wrestling fan as a kid and UW became a favorite. He “claimed” it was his last shirt he packed, but tee- hee~ 🤭 I got the reference. Was it a dig at the other team they beat? Who truly knows but Kathy cheered loudly during that parade that’s for sure, for multiple reasons! Let’s move on as to the REAL reason I chose that shirt finally for this week’s photo.

First off, I have to back up a bit to last July 4th. Does anyone remember me mentioning how I saw a guy wearing a UW shirt when my husband and I went to see fireworks? His shirt was a flag with UW’s logo and I just couldn’t believe it! I knew it was a UW reference and how patriotic seeing it on that day as would love it. 🇺🇸Well, this year on another July 4th, I saw another guy with another UW shirt. Yes, readers you got it~~~ ding, ding, ding 🛎️ if you put it all together. He was wearing that blue one below which I have not seen in years! The last time was probably during my son’s senior band night in high school~~~ which became purely ultimate to me then. 🥹Getting back to the big 250th b-day as I was outside putting some flag decor in our front yard. I do know a few neighbors but haven’t met others yet. This guy was mowing his front lawn so I could totally see when that lawnmower made its turn. OK, I’m actually not 100% sure without truly staring but let’s just say 99.9%. He didn’t notice my reaction (thankfully!) but I was in disbelief. Good disbelief that is. 😳

I was done decorating but had to still look busy, right? I decided to sit in a chair near our front porch area~~~ ya know just to relax after that hard work, ha ha! He doesn’t need a stalker for a new neighbor! 2 July 4ths in a row warriors, 2.. What are the odds? No coincidences, remember? I still wanted to run over and say something. I will one of these days as maybe he’ll wear the shirt again? Even if he doesn’t, next time he’s out I will have to walk on over (not run!) excitement subdued just a bit and introduce myself. I would love to hear his story and maybe he even knows the LeBron frenzy! 🥰We can bond over WWF. I’m sure it will be a great Convo but not sure if I feel comfortable just knocking on his door. Maybe I’ll get more warrior strength. I mean, he has to mow the lawn again soon, true?

So, those are the two OMG stories that I wanted to share today as they both made me laugh see. I still have OMG stuff and I never know when something will run to the ring. I never bought that shirt either but my goodness, it was great to see again, I haven’t seen a woman wearing it as perhaps it seems more for guys. Thanks LeBron for bringing it back to the front row as I know Warrior himself would love that too. Like I’ve said~~~ love the man with the name but not the team my Cavs beat for that title.

To end today, I will give a little sneak peek into my episode of the “ LeJeNdary Figures” podcast hosted by Babyface Brian of the 80s wrestling one we both belong to. I had such a great time and he called me the “Ultimate Author, Blogger, and Podcaster.” I’m honored to have those titles as part of my name. It is episode 180. I rated 10 figures from 1986, but he wants to have me back and do some UW ones. Anything from 1.0 to 5.0. I can be unbiased… He goes in order of how LJN’s are released so it’s a waiting game. I also had to give a top 10 list of wrestlers I enjoyed so listeners can get to know me. You might be surprised by a few but he (of course!) and others know my number ONE. I shared my beginnings in watching the “Golden Era” of WWF, my book and blog info, and the new “ Ultimate Truth” podcast naturally. I couldn’t leave without being the only GIRL on the show as well!

I so hope you fans can give it a listen and the fun part is always at the end. He asked what favorite music or band you like. It can be a singer, group of yesteryear, or even today and “Andre” does karaoke! Brian does a great Andre the Giant impersonation and sings very well. The song pic is always a surprise! He complimented me (after we had a few technical issues) but I hope the guys from the podcast enjoy it too. More OMG times so guess I did have a three 3️⃣ count after all!

I wish you readers your OMG moments you can connect to life experiences as we all have them. The best are unplanned as they make us laugh the most. At least they do for me. If anyone has that blue retro UW shirt, let me know! Maybe you even mow your lawn while wearing it. I promise I won’t stalk you… 🤣

A Personal Touch 💪🏻❤️

Hi there, readers and warriors! I hope all of you are doing well wherever you are today and enjoying this season in July as the year moves forward. You will notice that pic of Dingo Warrior below and yes, I do realize it is AI. I actually am not 💯% certain but like I’ve said before, it doctors faces which I don’t particularly enjoy. This pic of DW though isn’t bad so I decided using it today. I did some checking (once more) and realized I had not used a Dingo pic since last year! It was my final post of 2025 so guess he makes another appearance months later! We’ll see what other photos come my way as this month progresses…

So, I will update as I do on here and this time it concerns the lunch date with my hairdresser. We DID discuss the possibility of me being a “ghost writer” on her life story. We both looked up info and payment, which is what I would deserve on a project of this size. I found out SO much more about her life and it’s definitely book worthy for sure. I might just be a consultant with her, but she is interested in getting my professional opinion on writing, formatting, and editing. I’m excited as this moves along but still honored she considers me important enough to work on her memoir alongside many personal memories. The other reason I bring this topic to our arena today is another comment which touched me. I had sent her my latest episode of “ The Ultimate Truth” podcast debating Warrior vs. Sting/ and WWF vs WCW.

She was so funny with what she said. 😂 Even though she has no idea about wrestling, who the guys were, or anything similar, she still watched to see ME because I’m her friend. I appreciate it because totally do I understand how challenging it is watching or even listening to something you might not be familiar with. That’s another reason why our episodes are short and to the point because many may lose interest as that is society today. I received several compliments from her saying how it’s such a great fit for me and I seem so comfortable in that role. Her words expressed my natural ability and easy-going way with speaking. 🥹There are times when I’m so nervous yet still super excited all at once. She assured me that is not obvious and shared how it’s such a passion she could totally perceive. I really appreciated that from her. Again, I know we have gotten close, but I do know she’d be honest. From someone who isn’t into wrestling at all, she gave up some time to listen and watch, so I am grateful. I’m sure episodes will be released soon as a few more have been taped. Thank you to ALL fans who not only watch or listen but also leave comments, follow, share, like, or even hype the videos. I hope you keep watching the channel at “ The Masters of Wrestling/ Ultimate Truth” Podcast. She also bought my book 📗 so I can’t wait to hear her views on * MY* stories!

So readers, what do you leave a personal touch upon? If anyone ever wants to share their stories with me, you are welcome to contact through this site as I enjoy your thoughts on these writings. Also, especially if wanting to discuss Ultimate Warrior moments or memories as I treasure those. Inspirational ones that is and not trolling as those are not and will not be accepted. Just about every email I get with a personal message~~~ I have kept. Yes, I have. I print them out and save in my box of journals. No, they are not frequent but anyone who takes time out of their busy schedule to send me a note, is purely ultimate to me. I would not be able to keep up with the sheer volume of responses Warrior himself got over the years or at least without help but little ‘ol me can do just fine. I do respond to most as well. One of the few I never answered was a guy who simply just stated: “ Hi WWE.” No, not worth me clarifying that!

I try my best always bringing you my personal touch here every week and sometimes like now, I have downtime. That’s OK for things to slow down some as we need those breaks from BIG news happening whether it’s in the world of WWE (ha!) or even Warrior’s World. My brother doesn’t contact me much anymore about wrestling so basically, unless the 80s guys post the latest~~~ I am out of the squared circle on all that. Honestly, it suits me because other “stuff” is more important. At least in my life, you can feel different. If you are a wrestling fan and want all the gossip, guess you’ll have to go somewhere else to get the latest. My bro and I aren’t that personal anymore as some energy changes overtime but it’s all good. If he wants to share, he will so I don’t push.

I always hope you all put a personal touch or give it your best in everything you do. I love sharing stories when I have them and that’s my favorite aspect of these writings. Oh, I have had a few short and silly dreams concerning Warrior lately but nothing too personal. I could see myself watching a small TV and UW giving promos. They’re all mixed up and I saw “Queen Sherri” in one too. I sure hope it wasn’t a certain interview I am thinking of January 1991! 😳I couldn’t tell but I’m referencing UW’s answer to her which was: “ NOOOOO!” You all fans can probably guess that one. For some reason, I didn’t want anyone to see me watching which is still typical as I guess as it never truly leaves me in a way. My TV was kind of hidden from others around but nobody noticed at all. It was really happening so fast, I couldn’t totally tell what was going on. Well, at least he was there in some form, reminding me of that great Golden Era of the WWF I loved so much! I will always win that match… 🥰

OK readers, that slams everything I had this week as I give it my personal touch like only I can, ha ha ha. Who knows when another HUGE story will come along but I hope you got tagged into this one, even if just for a little while. It is the ultimate challenge giving things our personal best but unless we do some, no one will even remember us or care. Warrior gave A LOT of himself but then didn’t as well on another level. It’s that Warrior neutrality he had which contributed to his mystique and a big reason why true fans loved it so much. Until next time, be personal when you need but still hold back some too. And, if you’d like to connect~~~ just remember, I am not WWE! I thank you all for being your personal selves with me always.

P.S. The “ LeJeNdary Figures” podcast I recorded with Babyface Brian will be posted here soon! I am excited to share it with you all!! 😊👍🤞🏻

Jacked up for July 💪🏻

Hey there warriors and welcome to this brand new month! Are you “jacked” up for July? We are in the first official month of summer where I am in the US but it might be different for you. We also are having some super 🥵 HOT days right now too. Only fitting though how Ultimate Warrior below has some patriotic colors within his arm ties for the photo today. In just 3 days, the US will celebrate its Independence Day but also here’s that word again~~~ another milestone. Our country will mark its 2️⃣5️⃣0️⃣th anniversary to lots of events happening this weekend across our states. Living in a new area, we needed to do some homework (even in the summer…) to find out celebrations over here. There’s a 🍓 strawberry festival, a cardboard boat ⛵️race, and the local water skiing team will be putting on a show! I’m excited to see that for sure. I haven’t seen waterskiers like that since I was a kid and we went to Seaworld. Glad to be near a lake, although not a great one of Erie like before. Now, all we need are fireworks 🎆 and it’s all set. I’m excited or should I say “ jacked” for all these events I hope to get out to see. Whatever your plans, just be safe warriors while having fun.

Oh, last week was the first time so far all year I had used the word ultimate in a title. Almost 7 months, man that might be a record but had to check anyway. Speaking of checking on other things, I wanted a word to get “roped” into the word of July and finally saw one that fit perfectly. I of course know this word as I’m sure you do too but wanted to see specific examples or references ya know~~~ just for fun. Well, guess whose name was listed with certain other wrestlers regarding that term? Yep, or I wouldn’t be sharing now would I? The thing is, when I went back to look again I couldn’t specifically remember the site so no luck finding UW again, darn. Women athletes were listed too. There are other meanings of jacked besides being muscular or in training. I know the wrestlers use it a lot or at least they used to anyways. I rarely did but Warrior would in some interviews. He said “blown up” more but jacked is common.

Is there something in your life now warriors that gets you jacked up? Another mention for me is that I will be a guest very soon on an “ 80’s Wrestling the Podcast” buddy who has his very own show. He paints and then repaints LJN wrestling figures for profit and is incredible! A few of the other guys have been guests but they wondered when my turn would be?! 😳 As previously said many times on here by me, I’m not a wrestling “encyclopedia” like he is, but I give it my best. If you are a fan of LJN’s or simply mostly 80s figures and nostalgia~~~ check him out where you get your podcasts. It’s called: “ LeJeNdary Wrestling Figures” hosted by Babyface Brian. I’m excited to get a chance to rate some figures and share my projects as well. He’s done this podcast 3 years and his painting is just an incredible talent. Give him a listen and I’ll share details soon of my time on the show!

See, we don’t need to refer to the term “jacked” with a physicality at all, do we? Yes, that’s it’s original meaning but it is more excitement for me here. What moments in life come to mind when you think of that word? I hope they’re positive but honestly, I rarely have ever used the word jacked but if you are into fitness, you probably have. With fitness I mean becoming conditioned like a pro athlete or a bodybuilder and not us regular folks like me with yoga and light cardio. I hope you just don’t use it for things that get wrecked or stolen but I guess that can apply too.

As a wrestling fan, am sure many of you readers have several moments in WWF(E) history which got you jacked up over the years or even now. I know I have A LOT and my number one would be (of course!) WMVI because of so many reasons. There’s excitement but also nerves of emotion, doubt, anxiety, and all mixed in. Let’s just say that “ JACKED” feeling changed dramatically after UW’s unprecedented victory that afternoon. I was more than jacked after that!!! But, even if the outcome doesn’t go our way~~~ we will still bring our feelings to that squared circle every time. Every single time, am I right? Realistically, we should feel what we want because it’s all part of human nature and not caring would be unhuman. We are allowed all the stuff, but it’s just in how we follow through which matters most. You can get jacked up over something, but then what? Deciding on the next move is all up to you, dear readers.

As we begin month 7 already, yikes~~~ discover what in your life is a good feeling of getting jacked up in a way. Even if everything happens at once, the good is there waiting for you to start that match. You can have lots on your plate of “to dos” but wrestle each one separately, no double teaming. You’ll be much more productive that way, trust me. When I take on too much, my body responds and not in a good way. After several days in our new home, I needed a nap! 😴 I honored that even though there was and still is lots more to do. Like the saying goes: “ Rome wasn’t built in a day” and we aren’t human doings, were human beings. We have been here now a little over a month as this time just ran by like UW used to do. I’m still jacked up for many things since it’s a good feeling being in a new environment with new situations. Our family needed this move. It’s still one day at a time though.

Well, warriors~~~ I’m ending this match for our first week of July. Whatever your list of events, feel that excitement of being jacked over things that suit you. We need that, we truly do. I wish you all in the US a happy 250th celebration of our Country’s independence as that’s worth getting jacked up for too! Oh, and check out “ LeJeNdary Wrestling Figures” podcast hosted by Babyface Brian ! Notice the spelling of the word legendary…

P.S. Happy Birthday 🇺🇸 America! ❤️🤍💙🎉🧨🎇 AND thank you~~~ Warrior for encouraging others with inspiration to get “ JACKED” up in their own lives for the better.
