Hand me the Sledgehammer!

***** First, I hope anyone in the US who celebrated our Independence Day last week had a fun time! 🍔🌭🎇🎆🧨 ~~~ I do have to add this though. While we were in the parking lot waiting for fireworks to begin, I saw this man in front of us by his car. When he turned around, he had on an Ultimate Warrior shirt!!! It was UW’s mask like a flag that I know he had back then. Couldn’t tell if there were any words on it, but I so wanted to go up to him and say something! I did not but how cool to see…Been forever it seems since I have noticed anything like that!!! ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸

Now, I will begin…. Yes, I know. No need to scroll down, see this week’s photo and scold me. Fans of Ultimate Warrior will know what I’m referencing. In almost 9 years, I have NEVER and didn’t want to use much pertaining to that Superstars “Funeral Parlour” segment. Kinda sad stuff too 💔 besides the shocking… *** Today, though~ it appears because a funny Kathy story is back! I have done wrestling, the spiritual, and a little more ol’ WWF lately, but these specific details of that time have not been shared. At least I don’t think they have. 🤔 I do know a few tidbits weren’t in the past so let’s “bury” ourselves into this topic, ha ha!

Maybe you loyal readers will recall me saying how I would go get a sledgehammer and free Warrior out of that casket. Here’s a question before I begin. If any of you wrestling fans could’ve been in a certain storyline, changed an outcome, or written an angle differently, what timeframe would you choose? You can see where I’m going on this but there were others and not all involved UW. Most, admittedly~~~ yes but I rooted for the good guys so many matches or scenarios would favor them. Of course I know it can’t be that way all the time but come on fans, I bet you talked about plenty back in the day or still are.

Just keep that in mind as I share this after cracking myself up with the memory. 🤭 I will mention a sledgehammer just a moment with 2 connectors. I remembered the 1986 sitcom by that name about a crazy cop who thought of his gun as his BFF. My brother loved that show just like the WWF… Another one is the 1986 (same year) song by Peter Gabriel. You can look them both up as I did to refresh my flashbacks. Cue laughter with the song! I do look up lyrics and music videos to familiarize myself once again. That song is still played on the radio but the opening video sequence?! No MTV for me then so I never saw it when released. Well, I didn’t totally know what the song was about at the age of 14 but later on certainly did. Do you know the video? I KNOW you’ll look it up after reading. I always thought of a sledgehammer to open that casket, but NO way did that connect to the song. NO, NO, NO~~~ but it is totally funny how in 1991 when I was almost 19, and that segment happened., Ah, memories… 😳 Let’s start the story!

You might not think it would be quite comical, considering the subject matter and my feelings about all that back then. Just follow along and you’ll be laughing as well. I sure want you to! 😂 I needed to laugh after a few days when seeing all that in order to blink again. Also, my insides had to stop saying : “ I HATE Vince!” all day. Yes, I always blamed him for everything even though the guys had to agree…mostly.

OK, so when UW was in that casket, I was (naturally) backstage as I knew him and came to events. This is MY scenario, remember! He would tell me how things would get lined up, match outcomes, and all that so I always knew ahead of time, even for that Funeral Parlour. I wasn’t liking this concept but it was business and I had to accept that. Vince was announcing with Randy and Hot Rod ( who kept me sane with their comments…) so I was in the back with some other wrestlers just watching it unfold. I BROKE and after seeing all those guys out there with the hammers, chisels, drills,🔨⚒️⛏️ , and what nots, I couldn’t stand it any longer. I bolted out of the back and found a sledgehammer. Why would they have one around? 🫨 I ran past the wrestlers as they stared in disbelief while thinking how Vince would explain this to fans on the air! He’d get word through his earpiece but decided to just go with it. I know the shows were taped, but this would not be edited out. They couldn’t go to a commercial, right? I’m laughing even now. 😆 I see those useless men trying to open the casket and pounded my sledgehammer into the side!

I can only imagine UW swearing inside the ⚰️ saying: “ What the F is she doing?” He still had to play his role like you saw possibly on TV all the while with the men trying to pull me away. Needless to say, I got it OPEN as Vince is shouting : “ Who is this woman and where did she come from?” I can hear his voice in my head… He had his role to play too. How about the aftermath? More funnies from me as I can picture all 3 of us~~~ Vince, Warrior, and myself sitting at a table later on just staring. Warrior has his arms crossed vowing to never tell me anything again or maybe banning me from being there. He might’ve laughed though.., I would not have wanted to be around after the casket which brought snakes 🐍 and then voodoo the following year.

Vince had to make some kind of announcement or work me into the storyline somehow since I saved Warrior. Fans loved it though, but it begged several questions. All UW’s “mystique” would be unveiled just a little as now a woman is involved., Hmmm, what to do? No real ending as it could go on for a bit, but I still laugh at it all today. Yeah, yeah, I KNOW what you’re thinking and yes, that part of me comes out to play as I did rescue Warrior after being “oxygen deprived” for many minutes! You can take that anyway you wish but at least my sledgehammer did the job and I got great ratings for the show! 😉

P.S. Now, you can go look up those sledgehammer references! 📺🎼

P.P.S. No true idea on how the story came to me. Scenarios maybe? When I was teaching in the fall of ‘91, kids were mentioning WWF but UW was gone then? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Oh, those Stimulants..

🧋🍷🥃🍹

Before my adrenaline filled post today, I will recall briefly the last event of 11 years ago which was WWE’s RAW tribute to Ultimate Warrior on April 14. Ah, yes… My family playing “ Clue Jr.” and then hiding my tears 😭 in the bathroom… 💔 The song fit perfectly but grateful for the humor my husband provided back then.

OK, warriors- now onto these stimulants with a few of my own personal stories mixed in. First off though to any wondering~ NO, this is NOT about steroids or any recreational drugs many of the guys partook in. My take is the more understanding yet comical way, (like myself) of bringing in how easy it is to rely on stimulants in any form. Like I’ve said before, until you are in a certain position with certain situations~~~ you truly can’t judge until in those boots (as a pro wrestler that is.)

Here are my two stimulants~~coffee and alcohol. Sure, mixing things is not a good recipe as caffeine alone can be enough. We all know as fans guys did many things, (including the few women involved) and even though they would’ve known some side effects, wrestlers did what they could or felt needed to be done to be a star. Also, it provided coping mechanisms they felt were necessary.

Despite contributing to some not too healthy decisions, who doesn’t love some of Randy’s promos about coffee. A cup of coffee in the big time!” ☕️How about : “ cream of the crop!” Look those up with Mean Gene, how can you not laugh? 😂 Warrior knew Randy loved his coffee too, but that does impact lack of sleep. I won’t get into all that because we know it, don’t we? I used to be more of a coffee drinker but not so much these days. It started when I was teaching but I only drank it on the weekends! Guess I wasn’t into buying instant then and we didn’t have a pot at my childhood home. My husband had a pot years ago but it’s put away. No Keurig either. I truly didn’t need it but after my son started Kindergarten with that much earlier time, I took it up again.

I will say this, though. Nowadays, I rarely have caffeine. It actually keeps me awake at night despite only having a cup in the morning! No soda pop with caffeine much either. Judge if you may, but my system does not want it and it shows. Once in a while, I crave it and boy~ one can tell. I get a little jittery, have more energy, and my heart rate increases. 😳 My body can’t take too much of all that as others can. I will go get myself an iced coffee at McDonald’s on occasion with a little sugar and milk, not black. No fancy overpriced Starbucks, ha ha! I love it and get this~~~ I get a medium because a small isn’t worth it. Plus, I only drink half and save the rest for day 2️⃣ . Call me a freak, I don’t care. No flavors either. I used to get vanilla or even caramel but way too sweet for me in the A.M. That’s dessert, not coffee. You all can have your espresso or even mocha latte, but not me. I have tried several, but chocolate coffee?, Um… no.

How about those libations many of us love as well? I also don’t partake in that often because of- you guessed it, my sensitive system anymore. When my husband and I were dating, I could drink 3️⃣ Long Island iced teas while hanging out at BW’3’s… I would probably pass out or vomit now. I do still LOVE the fruity and tropical drinks of flavored margaritas, daiquiris, piña coladas, and even martinis like cosmos. 🍸 Wine is OK but after one glass~~~ watch out. So many stories but honestly, I was never a drunken girl~ I knew better. Yes, we’ve all been there but I can count on one hand those times for me. I even tried hard liquor at a work party just to check that off a list. Nope, never again. I’m not a beer drinker at all either. 🍺 Here’s a funny story of mine as I did admire my dedication.

I decided a few years back to not have any alcoholic drinks for an entire year. Nothing but clean stuff. It was a challenge as I did love those Mike’s hard lemonades from our corner store. I did it warriors despite holidays, birthdays, or anniversaries. My husband and I go out for a date night and I ordered a fun, mixed cocktail. We had dinner and headed to the movies. I was fine until about halfway through the movie. Oh no, what was this? My stomach was a mess. I didn’t wanna go to the bathroom and miss an important part. Well, thank goodness it passed but my body hadn’t a drop for 12 or so months and I fill it with mixes. Oh, Kathy~~~ wine would’ve been better to ease back in, but I did not do that. I bet my insides were thinking: “ what is she doing?” “ We thought she was done with this?”

*** Right at THIS very moment as I kid you not warriors~ those 2 expressions totally connect with my relationship to Warrior after his return of 11 years ago or even wayyy back. I assure you that was not in my original post! I totally even crack myself up sometimes. 😂😂😂

All kidding aside, it is so easy for many to become addicted to stimulants that can be mild even compared to others. I have family members who have battled and even a sister who fought against alcohol many years. We all have choices and it’s up to us with our free will to decide how far we can take it. I hope all you proceed with caution in this area and know your limits in spite of some temporary “good feelings.” It affects us all and not just pro athletes like those wrestlers we come to love. Warrior abstained from some stimulants, but then others~~~not so much. I will not condemn or condone, just bring compassion. ❤️‍🩹

P.S. Hope you enjoyed my stories as I bet you have some too!

P.P.S. Go look up Randy Savage on YouTube about coffee. You will “ dig it!” And~ happy WM41 weekend to any that will be watching. I might write a little about it, but not sure. Also, if any of you celebrate Easter~~ I wish you all a joyous holiday weekend as well. 🌷🐣🐰

That Time Again

🧡💚💛

Hey warriors~~~ it’s already the end of another month as next week begins April once again… 😳 We are almost 4 months into 2025 as I still hope you are Rockin’ those goals! This time of year brings my annual “numbers” if you will. Most regular readers know and if you’re thinking: “this again?” Ah well, it’s what I do just like things you all like to do. First off, I wanna share a few personal family events before I slam into UW memories today.

In 2️⃣ days, my son will turn 21. Oh my goodness, we have another milestone as my heart 🥹🥳 gets excited yet bittersweet at the same time. Being in his college pep band meant he got the opportunity to travel with the basketball team who won the MAC championship🏆 ! My husband and I attended that super thrilling exciting game, which ended at the buzzer with his Akron ZIPS winning by two points! It could’ve gone into overtime but did not. Those ZIPS were down at one time by 18 and rallied back to punch their ticket to the NCAA tournament. 👏🏻🏀They have gotten this far before but usually lose after the first round… He got to fly out to Seattle, Washington for round one against Arizona. They also were able to sightsee much in the area as well for a great trip out west! He hadn’t been on a plane ✈️ since he was 12 and did very well. I’m so happy he got such a wonderful chance to be there. I loved seeing all his photos and videos as it’s great having him home a bit for spring break.

Having said that, let’s move onto my yearly dates. To begin, Ultimate Warrior was part of 6️⃣ WrestleManias. Six. Yep, you read that right as this number gets a mention again. Should I list them in order by the dates or WM’s? I’ll do the WM’s~~~ at least the 3 for March. WMIV between Ultimate Warrior and “The Mighty Hercules” will be tomorrow on the 27th, WMVII between UW and “ Macho King” Randy Savage was on the 24th, (this past Monday) and WM XII between UW and Hunter Hearst Helmsley ( Triple H) will be this coming Monday the 31st. Got them all? 1988, ‘91, and ‘96. The other 3 will be mentioned in April. Two very short matches and one longer this month. First as well was UW’s PPV of WMIV marking his debut and WMVII being the WWF’s first ever “ Career Ending Retirement Match.” WMXII marked UW‘s return after 3.5 years gone, but I know fans know those stats.

Do you have a favorite WM with UW? Bet I can guess which few are pretty close to being a tie as I’ve seen much with social sites over the years. It’s pretty obvious to many as one is reserved for next time. 🥰 To be at any would’ve been such an incredible thrill, I cannot even imagine. Always more of a bonus if UW was your favorite and WON! We like that don’t we? Just a recap in another way here~~~ a few more stats I will list. So, it’s been 37 years since WMIV, 34 years since WMVII and 29 for WMXII. Next year are BIG numbers for 2 on this list which means then, all of UW’s WM’s will hit 30+. WOW… 😮 If a fan, can you recall what you were doing in your life for all of them or what age you were? I was always a teen and beyond, from going on 16 to going on to 24. 8 years total, how about that? 1988 to 1996 in all. He had 5 in a row and then 4 years later came back to have his last WM to ever be part of. More on this next time…

Another exciting piece of info to share concerns a recent workshop I attended on manifesting with my beautiful new energy healer. We were a small group of just 4, including her but it was an inspiring time connecting, sharing, and meditating together. I tend to get woozy so had to sit up near the end as no more weak stomach for me. 🤢 Some of you may remember… Anyways, our leader is writing a book as she had mentioned before~ so I brought up mine, just a little. After all, it was in the store but not sure where it got moved as we couldn’t locate it afterwards. The other woman in the group recently just received beautiful 🪶 feathers from a friend who insisted they were for her, but she didn’t truly know why. Cue Kathy to jump or should I say “run” in with that conversation! I honestly don’t know if that meant for her to be guided to my book but she was interested and we decided to meet up so she could purchase. We have not met up yet but hopefully soon. 🤞🏻 I don’t carry copies with me anymore but always so special when, despite the wrestling angle~~~ someone is wanting to know more about the spiritual aspect. I do hope she enjoys it and as you regulars know, SO MUCH more has been written since its inception in 2017. I’m excited to read my healer’s book (when it comes out) as it totally connects for me in many ways. I might just do a nature park adventure with the group again soon if the weather warms up and sticks around! These 30° temperature drops are not good for my skin here in Ohio… 😦

Here’s to a beautiful spring for all my northern friends and if you follow, WMXLI is weeks away. What will happen? Do you care? I care a little but we shall see if that gets a write up here or not. Happy 21st 🎂 🍺🎈 also to my son and to all of you~~~ keep manifesting your goals while moving forward as the warrior you need to be…oh- and yes~~~ I DO watch the WM’s that I OWN on their anniversary dates! ( I would not watch WMV though!) ☹️ I own half of them (:

P.S.

Here’s info on my book if interested: You know I had to mention after this post, right?

*** It’s available on Amazon and other book retailers. It’s a short read which details my beginnings in following wrestling, Ultimate Warrior’s career, and much on the SIGNS I received from him in spirit… I mention humor, ( of course!) family stories, my psychic traits, and lots more!!! *** 🩷💚🧡📗

The Way of Words?! 😬🫢😂

We all deserve a FUNNY 😆 post after last week’s right? I know I do. That previous one took its toll on me and I was getting tired of that negative energy being around plus watching the docu series. I was so emotionally drained and then my instincts came “running” in for a positive and fun one. I can’t fully say how this came to me but sometimes ideas in the back become the main event so today it’s another 3️⃣ count. I hope they bring a smile your way.

I had put out into the Universe for a while now just a few moments from Warrior’s career that involved words spoken. With just about all his promos, I knew exactly what he was saying but then there would be a few times when I’d ask myself: ” What did he say?” Maybe a few of you fans can relate to my examples here. Get ready because it’s the Ultimate Maniacs again! Well, I didn’t use a photo of them below but they had used part of a song called: ” This Cowboy’s Hat.” Of course I had watched it years ago and had no idea as I didn’t know that song at all. What is Randy saying? Those words had nothing to do with their opponents at the upcoming Survivor Series! I always wanted to know whose idea it was and who knew that country song from the early 80s. You can look up the lyrics. I’m so glad someone on YouTube a few years ago posted them. I have that promo on DVD and never knew the words until YouTube. Grateful for that as I finally had this question answered. Perhaps I will never know who originated the song for their promo, but it worked and the crowd loved it. ” Pin its ears down flat” sounded like some word of ” pinajeer?” What is that? 🤭The way of words with them leads us into the ” Way of the Warrior” in WCW.

Even though Randy and Warrior go back farther in my memory, I had forgotten much about their brief tag team. ***NOT anymore with so much to reflect on now that has been mentioned…❤️💛I also (like previously stated,) never watched Warrior in WCW either. It was only after seeing much again on YouTube but then when ” The Ultimate Collection” was in my hands. Everyone probably knows when Warrior appeared on Nitro in August of 1998. You fans know. He gives a loooong speech which I believe to be brilliant but too much for time constraints. This isn’t about that but is about his words spoken. Yes, I know his entire speech NOW but there was one statement I could never fully grasp until recently. I’m so glad when this topic came that I did my research.

To back up a little, the ” Way of the Warrior” music was written for Warrior’s return to WCW as he speaks the intro while sirens 🚨 blare in the background. The only words I always made out were scope, life? or destruction and then I heard what I thought was “kick the target out.” Another one I would never fully learn until our buddy YouTube once again. Destruction seems to be a common word with him. 😑 I would replay it so many times, I still couldn’t get it,! Google led me to YouTube. A few guys put up possible lyrics but this I believe is the correct version: ” the target is scoped and locked for destruction, take the target out!” 🎯 It seems a few words I heard were right I guess! Kick works too but isn’t it amazing how just some words make us scratch our heads and wonder? Sometimes when we just accept for a bit and let it go, the Universe helps us like it did for me. I’m sure Warrior was saying: ” See, you finally got your answers!” The “Way of Warrior” became the way of words which baffles us sometimes but then we get it right, even after years of trying.

Near the beginning of Warrior ranting to “Hollywood Hulk Hogan,” he talks about how “something ultimate may soon reappear!” Next, he goes on to say what I thought was ” welcome to the real plans?!” I could never find that out but a few weeks ago, I read a super long article (most was not flattering) on Warrior and the guy had W’s whole script so what he said was “reappearance”, which makes total sense based on his prior words. Plans would work too but very funny. After all these years, I finally know the right way of words he spoke.

How about song lyrics? I haven’t mentioned music in ages but it fits today. I know most of you readers get words wrong in songs, don’t you? If you don’t, you’re lying to yourself because come on~~~ we’ve all been there, including me. I decided in some songs that I like my lyric better and still sing it that way! Sometimes, we might not understand the lyric so we insert our own. Yep, done that too but there are those times we just can’t seem to get a word here or there right and it screws up the entire song. We can look them up online now, but not years ago unless we had the album or tape. My Mom would have such a hard time when us kids started listening to music on the radio. She’d happily sing along to our faves and then we’d look at her and say: ” No, Mom- that isn’t it!” She’d laugh and then still sing her version anyways… I’ve done that with my kids too… Oh the things that repeat. 🤣

That’s my way of words today or way of my warrior writings. I hope I conjured up some good memories for you and as one of WWE slogans went: ” putting smiles on peoples faces.” My smiles are for different reasons but I hope it’s there for you. Now, go look up your homework of ” This Cowboy Hat.”

P.S. My brother and I got Phil Collins song ” Invisible Touch” wrong. We always thought ( yes- both of us if he remembers) it was called ” Physical Attraction.So funny!, Phil with his ol’ WWF roots and songs they used. That wasn’t one of them. I have written about 2️⃣ others though! 😜

Totally out of Control! ❤️💛

How are we near the end of another month once again warriors? In my area, we are beginning autumn or fall and I get a ring side seat to all the leaves starting to come down. 🍁🍂 The place in the grass where I put my yoga mat seems to be covered every day, ugh as cooler temps are coming and soon sweater weather it shall be. I’m still not decorating for Halloween yet as that entire month gets its own devotion. I give it the entire 31 days as no other holiday shares those times so you won’t hear about any of that stuff from me just yet. Next week~~~ you’ll read about my anniversaries in October, but not today.

Tonight marks the debut of ” Mr. McMahon” which is a documentary premiering on Netflix. This 6 part series explores much about Vince’s life with many interviews and moments from his years in the pro wrestling business. It sounds fascinating but I don’t want to become addicted. Will any of you fans be watching? My brother might so I can get the “dirt” from him quite possibly. 6 episodes… Why does it have to be that number ha ha?! Mastermind or madman? You decide as the trailer promotes… 🤔🫣😬

The photo I used today might make loyal readers say: ” them again?” Yes, I know I have used “The Ultimate Maniacs” many times of Randy and Warrior but this one is yet another that shared a birthday of mine. Their premiere on that episode of “Superstars” marked the debut of a short lived tag team. It was aired on my 20th birthday so I had to include it along with the guys to end this month of September. I LOVE what they both said about being friends as perhaps not everything was preplanned. I know both of them wrote promos and such but I truly believe they meant those words to each other. It’s worth the listen if you need to “reboot” your WWF memories. They were so good together with similarities that when asked, many wanted to see their partnership continue. It wasn’t meant to be but they are together now reminiscing about it all. 🥹

I will also link at the end today as I can’t believe I forgot~~~ another story connected with my 40th that bears repeating in a condensed way. I mentioned the summer of 2012 but not a few months later. ” The Birthday Plans” details how WMVI came back into my thoughts after a long absence many years ago. OF COURSE I stuck to my tradition of watching ” The Ultimate Challenge” or the last match on my birthday. I had watched it years ago but on VHS and then after moving, marriage, young kids, etc. it got DQ’d from my life~~~ at least for a long while. How in the world did a rainy afternoon turn into watching that again when I hadn’t thought of it in years? 😳I have those answers now… It’s a great story and I still have the crinkly papers in print from another rainy day to prove it. I hope anyone new enjoys it as much as I did living it and then sharing with you all.

Let’s get back to “Mr. McMahon” and yes, even “The Ultimate Maniacs” a bit here. Why is it that we don’t let’s say, learn the lesson until things get totally out of control? This can go deep, I know but it affects us all. Some might say Vince got that way after a few earlier scandals and then once the Divas got introduced into the business. He also was accused of many other unethical things but seriously, I never imagined him being “forced out” in a way. Never. I always thought he’d be around in WWE until his passing. It’s like when things get piled up and then SH*T hits the fan! Why does it happen this way? Even with Warrior. Had the steroid accusations not been an issue, ” The Ultimate Maniacs” probably would’ve continued for a bit and become tag team champs. There were so many other issues too over the years with him but really, it isn’t just for the famous.

I know for me, both jobs brought stress but we stay for a while. Why? Well, because it’s our livelihood, it’s familiar, comfortable, and all that but is it still worth it? We wait and wait until the pot almost boils over or whatever phrase you choose. We can say this about relationships too whether they are family, romantic, or just friends. We fight like warriors but for how long until it gets out of control forcing someone’s hand to cave. We actually shouldn’t let it get to that point and yet we do, time and time again. 

The upside is we are always learning so we get more chances every day. We can see our past mistakes and rectify them but only if we want to. We will be on repeat until we press stop 🛑 . The good side is that maybe something was supposed to happen in order for you to truly see it for what it is. Without the negative, there can never be a positive. Some may never see the light through the dark but it is there~~~ in one form or another. There will always also be pros and cons to every story but that is why we are able to have our own opinions on whatever life presents to us.

When was a time that you had to see everything kind of breakdown before you realized there was a need to move on? Warrior did. It can even be relocating to another town as you feel you have outgrown where you currently are. My life here. 🙋🏻‍♀️ I know that’s a tame example and not really out of control but maybe you might feel that way over little things too. Just catch yourself *** BEFORE*** it can possibly turn into something worse because it isn’t healthy for anyone involved. We let things go on for so many reasons because it’s fear of the unknown. Maybe instead of fearing gloom and doom, it could actually be the best thing in the long run? Think that way warriors and I will too. From the change of seasons, careers, friendships, and even anticipatory documentaries~~~ don’t let it all get to out of control. The Ultimate Maniacs were, but outside the wrestling ring is where we tame it for our highest good… 😌👏🏻

Enjoy! 😊 💙🎉🎁🎈☔️

More Warrior Close-UPS 💙

I just had to do a continuation of a few weeks ago with ” The Warrior WHAT’s?” I told you I’d find some more and I did. If you look at the photo below, you’ll see number 5️⃣ on that list with the trunks that inspired my head tilt. Oh, and SPOILER ALERT… Most Wanted Treasures” mentioned THOSE trunks as I had no idea. 😉🤭 More on that in a few weeks. Glad that episode was finally shown- yay!!! They are there as I went- hmmm… 🤔 I wanted more sillies because I need to laugh. It is the dog days of summer, right? No, wait, that’s August. How about the lazy, hazy days? No, wait, I am seldom lazy. We all deserve to be from time to time though. After just having my daughter’s graduation party👩🏻‍🎓 (with many personalities there…) on Saturday, and her college orientation yesterday, this mom deserves a Warrior break so here it is for today.

It is a 3️⃣ count (as you haven’t read that in a while) with those Warrior close-ups he seemed to be more famous for than others. I had watched the old WWF for years like I’ve said so answer me this fans. Don’t you think the Ultimate Warrior had many more zoom in pics, promos, or close-up shots than most? I’m not sure, but that camera always was going close to either his face or other physical traits of his. I might be biased but come on~ I still don’t wanna see nose hairs, earwax, or tonsils! I never did but it seemed that way sometimes didn’t it? Some guys also perhaps got those extreme close shots but honestly, I really don’t know. After all though, U.W. WAS the sexy rockstar at the time. Just sayin’… 😏🔥

Close-up number 1️⃣. Shortly after Warrior won the title from Hulk, they did this different promo of sorts. I have it on ” The Ultimate Collection” DVD but I’m sure it’s elsewhere. It starts like an outer space scene with lightning bolts all over. Then, colors shoot out of his eyes as they zoom in to his chest which has the painted logo and those flexed pecs, once again. He holds up the belt but yeah, didn’t know all that was going to happen when I first saw it. 🙂‍↔️ I actually did use that as a pic several years ago! Sorry Hulk fans, but I just can’t picture HIM doing that unless he did other types of promos as champ, who knows? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Close-up number 2️⃣. This one I actually got wrong at first as I was confusing interviews. I thought it was before an “SNME” match against Haku where Mean Gene interviewed U.W. but no! This one was shortly before the 1991 “Royal Rumble” where Gene (I got that part right) interviews the Ultimate Warrior prior to his “loss” against Sergeant Slaughter thanks to ” The Macho King.” 😡. Anyways, during that interview those pecs move again, although briefly. How do you guys do that anyway? 😂There were other times but these just came to my mind. You probably are thinking this is an entire post on THAT but I assure you, it is not! I just wanted to do another lighthearted one to escape from the CRAZY summer I’ve had and continue to have. If you’re not into this one, hopefully I’ll catch ya next week…

Close-up number 3️⃣ . This last one is also from 1991 which follows U.W.’s ongoing feud with ” The Macho King.” Warrior had to get his revenge during WMVII and he did. It was the only time he walked to the ring without running. I had never heard why but I could think of reasons. I love the duster jacket he wore with images of him and Randy, as well as the matching kneepads. That takes us to the trunks. Yep, ending with those again so no flexing of the glutes, ha ha! The cameras zoom in once more to see them in an extreme close-up. There’s a pic of the belt with the caption of ” Means More Than This.” THAT was also talked about on “Most Wanted Treasures” as I would’ve had no idea! I write my blogs almost a week in advance as some may know… I can’t imagine the camera shot though on that one!!! It DID mean more than the belt as Warrior respected Randy so much but got the three count for the pin just like today. At least I’m ending with something other than his chest, right?

Well, there you have it. If I notice any others, no part three despite us wrestling fans loving that count. No explanation either as true fans KNOW this is not my typical type of post which will echo Warrior’s trunk statement of “means more than this.” Yep, sure does~ especially as time went by. We are all more than what is perceived but in that business, you get those close-ups that is for sure. Those trunks could’ve been my pic this week but, NOOO… 🫨

I actually have an update on the magazine issue from last week. I’m just an honest person so I couldn’t stand it anymore! I decided to just open up PayPal and figure it out. I’m sure others do it all the time but I haven’t in several years. It just was so confusing to me as my payments usually went through a person, not a business email. I did apologize for the late transaction as I’m sure they have received it. My thing was~ I didn’t want them suing me or anything like that for not paying, ha ha. It was a month ago when all this started so I paid a little late, I’ve been BUSY! I also am not paying for both mags because that was their error so technically, I did get one free. Not returning it either so that’s on them. $25 for two magazines is still a lot even though they pay shipping. It’s a business though. Once in a while, freebies are nice and they don’t happen much so I’m taking it. It isn’t stealing like oops- ( those other stories… 🫣) but their mistake~ not mine.

They haven’t even asked for the money so quite possibly could’ve forgotten? My honesty gets in the way so I needed to rectify. I had a good month though, and it was a one time deal. Never again. You warriors enjoy the rest of this month as August is coming soon. Both my kids will be in college, how is that possible? 😵‍💫This mama heart of mine needs a calming break. Once they are settled in and begin school again, I will breathe easier but then have another set of worries. Such is the life I chose..

So, enjoy all the close-ups in your life warriors since they go by in the blink of an eye. My selfie for this month is coming, but nothing extreme and no flexing! 🤣

P.S. Us girls cannot flex those pecs on our chest, but we can shimmy! 💃

The Vacation Magazines 💙💙

This post has a lot of details BUT before getting into all of it, I heard WWE’s “Most Wanted Treasures” on A & E will FINALLY air The Ultimate Warrior episode this Sunday, July 14. Check your local listings to be sure so we will wait and see… 😬🤞🏻

Ok warriors, are you ready? Let’s start this match! As some readers may know, I have mentioned the 80s wrestling podcast guys on here a few times so those WWF magazines you see below are from them. The owner of ” The Wrestling Collector” store in New Jersey is a cohost on the podcast so quite often they have contests on Twitter or X ( if you will.) He will show a magazine, poster, some autographed merch, or anything similar. The first one to type ” CLAIM” gets it for whatever asking price, shipping paid. I had never done this, but decided to give it a try. I know they have to make money but $25 for one magazine seems steep to me. What the heck, I tried it and WON…

The magazine cover showed Ultimate Warrior after winning the IC belt from HTM (Honky Tonk Man.) it was November 1988 and the funny part is *THAT* was the same magazine I wrote about years ago. I was at the library as a senior in high school doing research and happened to come across that WWF issue in the stacks! So, after remembering that story, I played their game. They messaged me for shipping info and asked if this was Kathy from the podcast! Yeah, it was me. Payment was either PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, or some others I never use. I mentioned PayPal and they gave me the store’s email. That was it. I have used PayPal in the past but wasn’t sure about their particular procedures, if there are any. Hmmm…

I waited a few days but no response back so I emailed them asking how to proceed with payment and got nothing. Our vacation (you knew that was coming from the title right?) was the next day so I kind of forgot about it. We were pulling out of the driveway on our way and my husband asked me to get the mail. I did and guess what? Yep, something was addressed to me from NJ. I couldn’t place it and hadn’t ordered anything recently. Then, after a bit, it hit me~ the magazine! As it turned out, it (or they) didn’t come with us as my daughter forgot her phone so we had to go back. Luckily, we hadn’t gone too far but perfect for me to put my package inside although I peeked a little. It was then I saw two, not one and neither was the cover they showed for the contest! What was going on? Maybe they do too many of these things as it gets mixed up! 🤪

So, both of them were from 1990 and I couldn’t be more thrilled. I only have one other WWF magazine from 1996 as I am no collector but to have both is ultimate!! More photos to come soon. The guys never have contacted me back at all, so no payment for them! Maybe Warrior himself helped me out on this… 🥰🤷🏻‍♀️

I have a few “funnies” from our trip too. The owners informed us that there was a snake, a 7 foot harmless non-poisonous one they named “Beatrice.” Later on, I saw a friend of hers, only much smaller. I was the only one to see the second one. I got close for some pics of Miss B, but she seemed to disappear after a storm. The owners have moved her, but she kept coming back to this big tree stump. I wonder if she’ll return to new guests? She was no Damien (Jake The Snake” Roberts snake for those wondering) but still. 🐍🐍😮

One of our first nights, my son was watching “SpiderMan 2” with his dad while his sister and I played a game. He decided to watch them all lately and this movie was from 2002. That was the year his dad and I got married, Warrior’s daughter Mattie was born, AND “Macho Man” Randy Savage was in this one. I knew that years ago, but had forgotten. His wrestling character’s name was “Chainsaw McGraw.” That I had to watch in order to know. Ah- Randy, thanks for being on our trip too, but stay away from Beatrice, ha ha! If you know how he got bit by Damien. 🫣

When driving home, we passed a fireworks store. 🎆 No, we didn’t stop then but did a few weeks later in Ohio as we were in Michigan then. The store’s name was SHANGO FIREWORKS… Yes, Kathy would notice that name. Maybe they were voodoo fireworks? If any wrestling readers know who Papa Shango was and his feud with The Ultimate Warrior. I’ll stay away though. 😂🤮Just kidding as I laughed like I usually do. The last tidbit was when my daughter and I went into the rest stop gift shop to get some candy for the way home. I bought us each a candy bar totaling $11.11 🍫That’s a great spiritual number if anyone follows that but I do so different number combos pop up on receipts for me from time to time. I love it, so cool. Thank you universe. WOW… 😉

Here’s another funny as one connects to the trip, the other one when we got back. The owners of our rental were Mark and SHERRY. We had a DANA 10 years ago on our very first rental and now a SHERRY. Warrior’s been gone 10 years so I’ll let you make that connection… Warrior was involved with 2️⃣ Sherrys- one personally and one professionally. That name can be spelled different ways. How about that?

Fast forward to after the vacation when I had to take my daughter for her wisdom teeth consult. We were sent to room 6️⃣ (welcome back number of mine) and later, the finance lady handling the money at the end was named Sherry. Oh my goodness, another laugh to myself warriors.

*** That’s the post this week so I hope I made you all laugh too and don’t forget about the A&E show this Sunday!

P.S. I’ll let you know if any more info comes my way about the magazine (s) as I probably can just go in and make the payment myself but I wasn’t sure? Oh, we left for our trip on 6-15. Our first full day there was 6-16, Father’s Day and Warrior’s birthday. Not planned on purpose, ever. Oh my. 

🙏🏻💪🏻

The Warrior WHAT’s?😏😬

Here we are at the end of another month warriors, as I resume these writings after taking last week off. More on that vacation in a different post as this one is “JACKED” with lots of well, you’ll get the idea if you just look at my selfie. It’s a fun one so I hope you stick around until the final bell rings🛎️if you will.

I initially wanted to call this post: “Things that Make you Go Hmmm…” like the C & C Music Factory song but decided to go with my own title instead. I thought of 5️⃣ things but numbers 3 and 5 I knew or at least were aware of prior. 3 are songs or lyrics and 2 reference gear or perhaps Warrior’s look at the time .

Let’s “lock up” and start this match.

Here’s number one.

First up is when Warrior partnered with Sting back when they were: “The Blade Runners.” The music they used was: Styx’s “Castle Walls.” This I had known for a while, but only because someone commented on a YouTube video. I did know that song, but forgot that instrumental part which totally fit with The Blade Runners vibe I think. Look up the song as there’s one lyric which struck me. It’s about destiny at the end. Do you think Warrior was influential with choosing the song or maybe it was chosen for them? I don’t know but just a little trivia once again. I can see him beginning his destiny even back then. This starts the Warrior WHAT’s?

Number two.

Did you fans know when Warrior was Dingo, his theme music briefly became Bonnie Tyler’s blockbuster hit: “Holding Out for a Hero” from the movie: “Footloose?” My girl just was part of her school musical in the spring, where the kids performed “Footloose” so very nostalgic for me. I love all the songs! 🥹I never knew he used that song, only “The Warrior” by Scandal. Perfect song for him, don’t you think? 

Number three.

This one is about Ultimate Warrior’s gear. This one is also probably quite common. Warrior had said he didn’t want to necessarily accentuate his looks but yeah, very much talked about~~~ A LOT… When Warrior and “Macho Man” Randy Savage tag teamed in a match versus “The Nasty Boys” during the SummerSlam Spectacular event in 1992, the Ultimate Warrior came out in a nude singlet. 😮If you read comments on this match from YouTube, the match itself barely gets mentioned but most are asking if Warrior was NAKED?! Really people? 🫢Use your brains, 🧠 but it just shows you what the topic mostly was about. Why did he wear that? Maybe just to garner more attention with him and Randy or to be different as he always was. I’m not entirely sure but boy was that ever the issue. Yeah, he painted his bare A**!!! 😂😜

Here’s number four.

We are back to songs again here. This one also references Warrior’s look as well (or at least in my mind…) Many fans may be aware of some guys after leaving WWF(E), went to Germany in 1995 with their CWA for a bit. Warrior had several matches but of course couldn’t use his theme music of “Unstable” so what to use? Well, I happened to come across some videos a while back as no, I am not looking them up all the time. I saw Warrior come out and thought that music sounded like a band I knew. I kept listening and then finally looked it up. The song is: ” Sticky Sweet” by Mötley Crüe. Not as popular on the radio as some of their others. That’s another song you can look up with some of the lyrics. Warrior was definitely playing to many of those physical attributes of his if you know the song. 😏 That brings out that girl who is always waving at me 🙋🏻‍♀️as I see her~~~ she makes me giggle but I don’t push her aside anymore. She is there for a reason, and I applaud 👏🏻 her. Great song and it worked for The Warrior for sure. I can be biased, but it’s all ME!!! He wore pants then too, there is a line in the song about that. 👖🔥😉

This last one of number five brings us to 1996 involving Ultimate Warrior’s feud with Jerry “The King” Lawler for “The King of the Ring” tournament. 👑This final one is that girl coming back… 🫣On “The Ultimate Collection” DVD, Warrior mentions how he was in the best shape of his life then and coming back after being gone 3.5 years, he wanted to give people what they remembered about the character~~~ namely, his look. They show right at that moment a clip of U.W. and I always noticed his trunks. You’ll read why… Maybe you don’t or haven’t but I just laughed once again right when he says: “his look…” ( meaning the U.W. character,) my head tilts the side. Why? Well, I’ll tell you… His trunks which of course depict the famous logo. He had put 2 on the front pointing inward along with the back so they are positioned just so on the side. Yep, I noticed. His look! Kathy had tilt, ha ha! I promise that is *** NOT*** typically me as I loved when his face paint would wear off but with that intro, how could I not make that connection? I was not always looking SOUTH! 🙂‍↔️Come on guys reading~~~ you notice the ladies and their physicalities right? Why were the logos sideways and not straight? Maybe there wasn’t enough room. WHY??? Always makes me giggle every time as Warrior knew what he was doing. I bet he noticed, but if not, it makes my WHAT’s? list for sure!

There you have it readers. My top 5 of Warrior WHAT’s that made me go hmmm. 🤔I bet you fans can think of your own. Maybe in a future post, I’ll list some others.

P.S. I laughed when writing this as some go way back in my memory but some found their way to me in other ways… Yeah, yeah, I still see her waving. 👋 ☺️

Warrior Tattoo, part ♊️💪🏻💚

***I have not used the word Warrior in a title since January…

Here we go again with yet another part two, only this time years later. I’m using the Astro symbol for Gemini ⬆️ since we are in that season. That zodiac sign belong to Warrior but it also belongs to my daughter who gets mentioned frequently on here. Before all that, I do have to apologize for the photo below. I look like a contortionist of sorts! It was the only way I could fit my warrior tattoo in the pic with me taking it alone. The reason it gets another mention today is a 2 count. It is the 10th anniversary of when I got it along with my girl who turns 18. Yes, today is her 18th birthday which means 10 years ago~~~ she turned 8. So, besides April— we get another 10th in May. What a milestone it is for both… 🥳🍰

I will share some quotes from the story in my book: “Spirit and Belief.” It’s rare how it gets a plug anymore and that’s OK but you can find it on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, iTunes, my publisher~~~ Balboa Press, and wherever you find books if you are a reader or interested. It’s my baby book of sorts. ( My phone typed “swords” 🗡️as I almost kept that in since Warrior was “The Swordsman” character in the movie “Firepower.” Too funny! 🤭 The book shows the beginnings of the warrior journey I am on. I have written and experienced SO MUCH since then but it’s a fun, interesting, emotional, short read of my adventures. Here are some snippets from “My Warrior Tattoo” chapter 23:

” I had two concerns about doing this and they were quite valid for me. First, I didn’t want it to be a sad reminder just because he passed and second, the aftermath of explaining its meaning to those who won’t understand.”

Yep, still true today– both statements. Here’s another: ” I must admit that the hardest part for me was not getting the tattoo but telling the artists who the Ultimate Warrior was.” *** One guy knew but others did not. I already had one and then a few years later I got a third. I’ll stick to a three count.

A fun one here about that zodiac sign (which was a post done years back all about Virgos – me- and Geminis : ” This girl is also a Gemini like Warrior was and her traits are extremely similar it often blows my mind.” *** Funny how back then I vaguely followed astrology but I looked up a few things. Now, I follow it a little more closely but it’s only part of my practices. Here’s a little lovey: “Maybe I was meant to get that tattoo on her birthday as a special reminder I will never forget. I did tell her what the tattoo means to me and who it was in honor of. She thinks it’s cool and points to it with no words. I know exactly what she means.”

*** That was powerful for me to write and some of you may remember a story quite sometime back when I recalled my 3 tattoos with her. It was titled: ” We Are Never Done.She doesn’t totally remember that time of 10 years ago, but still respects her mom for having the courage to incorporate his legacy. My brother then had reminded me between my 3 tattoos, it is 6 years. Yep, that number was ever present back in those early days but it still makes an appearance from time to time.

Well, those are just some of the goodies of many emotional beautiful feelings from me. My girl made me laugh back then as I needed it the most when she accidentally saw it on my arm! How is she 18? She had the senior prom a few weeks ago and looked so stunning in her dress while having a fabulous time with her friends🥰👗. She just also marched in her final Memorial Day parade with the band just the other day🪈❤️🤍💙🇺🇸 and now graduation is tomorrow night 👩🏻‍🎓. I know I’ll be all “business” but hearing “Pomp and Circumstance” still gets me choked up. 🥹🥲Believe it or not, I just watched Warrior’s tribute to Randy on my saved videos last week. I actually was just scrolling and then remembered how he passed in May so how fitting to have found that. 3 years later, Warrior would join him… ***If you are or were a fan of them both, find that video. I’ve linked it before but it is a wonderful tribute to “The Macho Man.I imagine it as his induction speech into the WWE HOF instead of the one he actually got. I digress yet again… 😑

How is it June this weekend? I knew May would fly by and we need a breather. You’ll be reading a few more posts from me and then I’ll be breaking for a brief trip back to Michigan. We went there after my son graduated but this time, a different area. Until then, look for a few other NEWER pics from me that I have not ever used. It’s another part of Warrior’s career I had yet explored and now, I can. You’ll have to keep reading to find out! I am ready for swims in the pool, 🏊 BBQ’s 😎☀️, sitting by the fire, 🔥 and all the summer feels. We have a busy couple of months with prepping a new college kid, but as always~~~I will breathe through it all. The to do list does become shorter and shorter every day.

I wish you all a happy June as we say goodbye to May… Hard to believe we as a family will no longer be associated with a school district. Just like I usually say- some stuff I’ll miss but others I won’t. New beginnings are tough as we all know but can also be exciting. My son will be moving into an apartment for his third year at college this fall. That will be quite an adjustment having them both gone for a bit but we need to evolve like life has to be. I will treasure all the moments and take them in the best I can. You need to do the same no matter what they are. Take breaks when needed and find a quiet time just for you. We all need it despite the crazy. After our vacation, I will be prepping more for her graduation party. It seems like I just did that~~ two years went by in the blink of an eye. I still see the word FLOW so that is how I have to be. 🙂‍↕️🌊

Happy 10th to my tattoo, even though that sounds silly. It isn’t to me because it gets shared with my girl’s birthday for the rest of my life here. I will also complete her photo wall collage with adding the last one. Very bittersweet🙂‍↔️ it will be, but I have my Warrior strength always~~~ especially when looking at my forearm. Two celebrations in one day and both I will never forget. Oh those Geminis, how can I possibly ever not feel their energy? Both part of me in different ways and forever pieces of my heart.💙💖

P.S. To all you fans of U.W. ~~~ Yes, I finally *** DID*** have several more emotional moments last month. The floodgates opened but not in the same way. It was more little things that have happened in these 10 years. We will never forget but need to keep being our OWN warrior. Channel that inner Gemini with all its expressions of embracing life! 

Solid as a “ROCK.” 🪨💪🏻💙

I just need to mention real quick about last week’s date being 1-24-24. Yes, we will have that every month like last year but January brings the first of course. I love repeating numbers AND this is it for the first month of 2024. Wasn’t it just New Year’s Day?

OK, WRESTLING fans~~~ I’m BAACK…. Did you miss that topic? Sometimes, I need to focus my energy on different areas or there isn’t much of a story from the wrestling world waiting to be explored by ME. Now, there is yet again. (***BTW- I wrote this post after finding out about “The Rock” but BEFORE the most recent scandal broke the following day… ***)

You’ll notice if you read to the end (as I HOPE you do) that pic of Ultimate Warrior. It involved a tag team match between him and “King” Duggan (Hacksaw) versus André the Giant and “Ravishing” Rick Rude in 1989. The good guys won albeit by cheating a little, oops~~~ ha ha! As fans of U.W. know- he was part of two tag teams with Sting being the “Freedom Fighters” and then “Blade Runners.” Jim Hellwig’s name with the Blade Runners was “Rock.” . Fans may also know a few others by that name. We had “The Rock” Don Muraco who was “Magnificient” and then “The Rock” Dwayne Johnson years later. His Dad’s name doesn’t count as Rocky.

That takes me to the real topic at hand here. Any guesses? Come on. IYKYK. DJ has hinted at “possibly” stepping in the wrestling ring once again only this time as part of WrestleMania 40. They need something BIG right? It is rumored he will be facing none other than his cousin who is the universal champ- Roman Reigns. The Rock also just recently signed onto the WWE Board of Directors, while securing the rights to his name. That second part sounds a little like with someone else years ago did in a way to secure HIS name, only legally and not with WWE. What DJ is doing means nobody in the business can use “The Rock” as a moniker anymore. Well, we’ve had others in the past so let’s move on from the same name. That is similar to WWE over using (at least in my opinion…) “the King” moniker many times hence part of the pic again below. Yes, they had the “King of the Ring” tournament for years but I mean just the name like with Jerry Lawler, Harley Race, “Macho Man” Randy Savage, and of course, Haku, who lost the crown he won from Jerry to none other than Hacksaw. Yes, I had to re-look all that up about Haku and Hacksaw as it’s very vague in my memory. And to think weeks ago, I just took a photo from a U. W. tag team match. Wow, the connectors that “tag” in are crazy! Writing brings out details I never had originally thought of quite often. 😜

Also, in WWE news is the recent announcement beginning next January 2025, how RAW will be moving to Netflix. My brother informed me of this before I read it on social media. It’s a HUGE multi year deal. Plus, my 80s podcast guys also covered some of that info on their episode of last week. Both SmackDown and NXT will be switching cable networks in October as well. Can you just imagine how RAW will change the face of Netflix? The guys were trying to determine the increase of viewers. I believe it will skyROCKet, 🚀 how about you? WWE will also be moving their PLE’s (paid live events) to Netflix too. Those used to be PPV’s as I always called them. No idea on that name change. How decades have evolved, that is for sure. At this time next year, they will know how viewership increased as I’m sure it will, by a LOT. It’s all business and moving through the eras WWE will always do. The Internet and streaming are the NEW now.

So, what’s your opinion as I get back to the topic of The Rock at WrestleMania 40? Yes, his appearance earlier this month drew BIG ratings for them as it would, nostalgia and all. Who knows how this will play out with a title on the line. I cannot predict what they will do and obviously with him now being on the board, he will be more involved. Is he stepping away from movies and Hollywood for a while to strap on the boots? He is generational with everyone, but is this just a one time thing? So many questions with WWE always leaving us guessing. To have a brief run for him again would be monumental but a LONG run, I actually don’t want that. Sure, he can still perform and entertain as many wrestlers continue into later years like U. W’s old tag team partner of Sting. He will be retiring this year from AEW. I just feel personally that like Warrior said in his HOF speech, you will know when it’s time to move on and pass that torch to the next generation. I understand how different it is these days with veterans still wanting roles in the business. They don’t just want to mentor or be backstage, they want to be in the ring if they still can at whatever capacity. If this continues though with the current roster, nobody would ever retire and the HOF would just honor past legends of yesteryear. The Rock of course will be part of a class one year and he is still so young (my age!) but when is it time to fully step away? I believe they should push some of the existing talent who work tremendously hard at that level. We can’t relive the past, but is it great for the Bloodline story? Of course.

Roman is close to beating Hulk’s “reign” as I’ve mentioned. My brother does not want this to happen. He was a huge Hulkamaniac. It would be more near SummerSlam if it did so if The Rock takes the title, what then? He’s on the BOE so he can maybe help Triple H with creative, ha! It would be great to see DJ back in action now that he is more part of the business end and he has the family legacy just like Roman. A brief run is what I’d like as I’m sure more movies will be calling his name. It would be that huge revenue WWE can do to make Mania 40 but we shall wait and see. Wait and see…..

All those guys with The Rock as their monikers lived or have lived up to being solid. Solid in word, solid in action. However you define it but it worked for them with the ways they needed and still is for one. Let’s just not have any more “kings” shall we? 👑😐😬

P.S. Also- most recently came THIS news. Unless you’ve been living under a rock- pun intended- you know…

***For the first time in over 50 years no McMahon will be involved in WWE. Vince’s resignation (once again) stemmed from more recent graphic allegations. All before WrestleMania 40. *** SIGH**As he always said though : “the show must go on.” Will he be back once again? I’m finally thinking NO… This hit me in a different way as I cried for many various reasons… 😞💔
