Calm Before the Storm 🙏🏻⛈️

I’m going to start off today with a few little things before getting into the blog. I hope all you readers are doing well as these many holidays are fast approaching near the end of the year. A quick honorary mention needs to be written about last week concerning the post on redemption and revenge. I cannot believe I left out WMVII. After all, had it not been for the “Macho King’s” interference with his scepter, UW might’ve still been the champ. I know, I know it was all planned~~~ but loyal readers may recall my post where I discussed that 1991 Royal Rumble against Sergeant Slaughter. It was called “ The Stories We Tell” on 7/19/23. Sarge told a little different story as that became a rant of mine! Anyways, UW got his revenge with a win at that Career Ending Retirement Match. Redemption for sure. ☺️

The next topic is yet again about a pic. The one below today is just a random shot, but I left my blinds in the background. I could’ve used my other DVD player to avoid the blinds but decided to keep it in as is. I think it’s funny and I am not an editing queen!*** Well, now that those two convos are over, I’ll move on. Did you ever just feel like it’s the calm before the storm? How about if your metaphoric plate was full, got emptied, and then super full again. Yep, that’s me right now. I guess life is like that but why is it always like 1 million things on that plate? 😩

I’ve been feeling under the weather lately and so has my family. I’m actually not overwhelming myself with holiday shopping that much but other things creep their way in and remain for a while. I do like to stay busy but then more stuff gets added to the plate, which makes me scream! UGH!!! My daughter has decided to change colleges in order to commute and go locally. So, we need to get her car before the semester begins mid January. At least the kids won’t be rivals anymore. She just isn’t happy but in a few years after we move, she’ll resume her studies where she started and get her degree. I thought she may last the entire year there, but it isn’t meant to be. *** Before that, I do hope for positive vibes as we are hosting Thanksgiving this year and she needs the other family support. We also have visitors that haven’t been here in years~~~ my sister’s family, who recently moved back here in the summer. They were here for the graduation party but not inside for a holiday. The calm before the storm indeed…

We will be going to my niece’s wedding the week before Christmas in Tennessee that my husband and I will be attending. I haven’t seen some of my brothers kids in years so I’m looking forward to those reunions. Again, though~~~ some can cause drama so I can only hope it all goes well. I am slowly taking off from the plate, piece by piece. My girl also gets her wisdom teeth out over winter break, 🦷 my son starts a new job that he’s super excited about, and my mom will be turning 80 Christmas Eve. I will definitely need some calm after those events.

Phew, let’s talk about a wrestling career. I know the guys had little calm or downtime as their plates were always full. It was just their lifestyles which they chose for themselves. Sometimes, it takes years before any of them~~~ like Warrior would be able to enjoy a much less full plate 🍽️ and less of a storm if you will. I do better with a few things at a time or my anxiety goes into overdrive. It’s this time of year but also other family stuff called life. I love much about the Holidays but the people you spend your time with matters. Sometimes, it’s a struggle but I tell myself that I do enough and that’s it. We have to be ourselves whether others agree or not. Warrior was all about that for sure and it’s something I need to remember always, no matter what is happening around me.

I also get affected by cosmic energies, whether any of you readers understand that or not. My shifts are happening and it’s all for the good but that is why I seek the energy work. I feel lots deeply and need to remember as well to not give my energy away to just anybody. It isn’t healthy for my systems. You might be confused by this and that’s OK. Just know it is part of my journey and one I need to keep healing. I had the calm, but then another storm started brewing…

Our plates will never be completely empty all the time warriors and that’s how it’s supposed to be. We do need to find the balance though or our bodies and minds will tell us. Sit with it for a bit as I’ve said before and I’m doing that too. We have to believe all will work out for us and have that intuition to know it’s true. What do you do when things seem to overwhelm or your plate is overflowing? I hope you can find the calm despite some storms possibly coming on the horizon. Be the warrior you were meant to be, which is to fight with all that you have~~~ always.

Even if it’s just for a few moments, get a little time to calm and declutter that plate. There will be storms, but it’s all in how we handle it, right? I am grateful Warrior finally found his calm which is what he truly needed, we all do. Do what you can and know it’s enough, even with this busy or chaotic holiday season. Stand your ground and tackle that plate one day at a time. Tell your mind that it’s OK to be calm and it will eventually listen. Get that warrior strength and never let it go. It will stay with you through all of life storms…

P.S. Here’s my ‘91 Royal Rumble Rant!

Redemption or Revenge? 👏🏻💙💪🏻

I have a few things to mention before getting into today’s topic. First off, last week marked the 37th anniversary with the television debut of Ultimate Warrior. Yes, I do bring this up every year but it’s always worth a mention. How is it getting to be close to 40 years, oh my… I was 15 and a sophomore in high school as that began all this for me. Do you lifelong fans remember that time? No milestone but still a time to look back on if you are or were a fan of his and following the old WWF in the 80s. *** What WAS a milestone yesterday though was my husband and I remembering 25 years ago when we first met! I can still picture all the details. I know he does too… 🥰. ***Lastly, a few days ago here in the US was Veterans Day. I did an entire post on that several years back. I honor and salute all of those vets, including many in my family who have served this great nation of ours while defending our land. Thank you for your service… 🇺🇸🗽🕊️

Moving into today, you’ll see that pic below of when UW got his IC belt back from “ Ravishing Rick Rude” in SummerSlam 90. It was his redemption after losing it in WMV earlier that year because of “ The Weasel” Bobby Heenan’s interference. I won’t call him a brain but Warrior one could also say got his revenge. To me, it can be both. Let’s stick to this scenario in the WWE. Did you miss me talking about wrestling, fans? How about this past WMXL? I can describe Cody Rhodes’s win as redemption AND revenge against Roman reigns. If you follow or watch, you’ll know what I mean. We want and need a positive word like redemption but then with sports in particular, we want that negative word of revenge.

Case in point with it being a little personal for me. 8 years ago, if anyone had been reading my blog or even purchased my book: “ Spirit and Belief,” you may remember this story. I think it was one of the longest in the book actually! My Cleveland Cavaliers basketball team 🏀FINALLY became the NBA champions after beating those Golden State Warriors. I still can’t call them that… They stretched at all 7 games and it was super close. The year before both teams had faced each other for the first time but my Cavs lost in game 6 (on Warrior’s birthday.) The following year they won it all in 7. 2015 could not have repeated! Redemption and revenge all at once. I think the cherry on top for me was when LeBron James stepped off that plane back home in Cleveland wearing an Ultimate Warrior T-shirt. He “claimed” it was his last one in the suitcase but many knew he was a fan when younger. It just so happened that part of UW’s name belongs to that CA team so was that worn by LBJ on purpose? 🤔We will never fully know, but it made me feel pretty ultimate to see that revenge. We shouldn’t be that way but with sports, it comes out in us.

I won’t get political on here ever but feel the need to mention our next President elect~~~ once again Donald Trump. He had been associated with WWE and the McMahon family for years. He even had Linda on his cabinet. Him winning this recent US presidential election also begs the question of what his victory truly is. Redemption or revenge~~~ for a second term, years apart. You can decide that on your own but it’s another example here as it does get “roped” in with talk of WWE and his history with the company. Several WM’s were held at his venues through the years too.

Let’s get back to Warrior for a moment. His return to WWE in 2014 ignited an intense possible reunion. Many expected him to perhaps bash others in the business during his time in NOLA at WMXXX or just to avoid some altogether. He could’ve gotten his revenge for the past in how he was portrayed. Instead, none of that happened at all. He got redemption by surprising most spectators there during his HOF speech and beyond. He evolved in such a way few ever would’ve known or believed to be true. All of the old vengeful acts were behind him and now it was his turn to be redemptive. He always shocked people back in his prime with many actions and still was upon his return to the business that made him a superstar, only in a new way.

How do those two words fit in your life? Can you think of times where both mattered? I’m not condoning revenge in regards to evil of course but just other areas where you felt that desire to maybe “get even” or let them know what it feels like to be on the other side of a situation. Maybe you couldn’t accomplish a goal but then at a later time, you did. That’s good redemption and one you could be proud of. It can just be a personal dream or something similar. We shouldn’t get so bent on hate that we play the “eye for an eye” game and yet many times, that emotion surfaces and we succumb to it. We are human after all and nobody’s perfect. Just be aware and try to course correct if you can for a future time. Don’t expend your energy on what doesn’t matter. Leave that bad karma alone and focus on the good. It’s super hard to do this in some aspects but it’s truly the best and healthier way to be.

Redemption or revenge? Both strong words that are part of our lives. Let’s bring forth more redeeming qualities we can be proud of and leave the revenge part. You will be grateful you did. UW’s matches were “scripted” but I know he felt those words too in his life many times. Warrior opted for the good near the end of his time here. I hope someday I will do the same… 🤍

P.S. Tomorrow marks yet another very memorable day as well. 1992 brought the final match between the Ultimate Maniacs vs Money Inc. on SNME for the tag team belts. I always remember this time not just because it was Warrior’s last appearance for many years but also because I had a very special moment happen to ME that night shortly before the match. I will always remember~~~ although before, I had forgotten. 🤭 🅾️

***That date of November 14 also brings my 2016 memory that is mentioned in my book. 📗 That was when I went to Toys “R” Us and saw some Ultimate Maniacs action figures plus a car with New Mexico plates on my drive home. Warrior lived there for any wondering….The same date with references 24 years apart…Yep, I will always remember those special times too.

My Introspective Session ❤️‍🩹🧲😬

Happy November warriors! Hard to believe we are in these last few months of 2024 but what a year it has been. That post will be December but today is still this month of number 11. More on that number later…. When you finish reading, you’ll notice that pic of Ultimate Warrior below wearing one of his many WWF T-shirts back then. That was yet another photo from one of the magazines, but here’s a little fun fact I noticed recently. I had decided to watch some of my faves and one is of “ The Brother Love Show.” Amanda Ultimate Warrior also wore that exact SAME shirt when she appeared on the segment! I just thought that was an ultimate connection. I love how these ideas lineup. 🥰

I’ll move us into today’s post of being introspective. I recently had another energy session with my new healer who specializes more in healing through hypnosis. I saw her last in June. ***NO***to all you skeptics, it isn’t like turning into a chicken or anything like that! 🐔It’s more introspective which Warrior had mentioned as an aspect of his personality. I am too. The beautiful concept was that she made a house call! How sweet was this and I became her first one here in Ohio. I of course was a little nervous, but it then was super cozy as we danced a little at first to release anxiety.💃See, it’s fun stuff too and not just going deep.

The date of our time together was October 29 which I mentioned last week. 5️⃣ years ago, the calendar was the same. My healer connected numerology which totally resonates with me. Regular readers will know this… 2+9 = 11 and that is a master number. My number. See, it’s back… If interested in finding out yours go to http://www.numerologist.com for info. It is totally FREE… Whether it is something you’d like to pursue or not, mine fits and I do believe. What is a master number? Well, it’s part of my journey and connects to inspiring energy. I am an intuitive soul that is for sure. The traits can sound intimidating, but makes sense as in the past~~~ little did. It’s always yin and yang though. You can do that research on your own if feeling compelled to do so.

These energy sessions vary in some degree than what I had been used to. She accesses past memories of trauma, but does so in a way that feels comfortable and relaxed. Think of it like going to a psychiatrist only more spiritually aligned. Sometimes, it does feel a little intrusive as many questions are asked of me. We did have prep work though with topics I needed to discuss and dissect. With my previous healer, more of it was done in silence with little discussion on my end except for the occasional question. I love the use of crystals and oils, but these hypnosis sessions are very communicative. Sometimes though, we need to feel out of the “norm” or “out of the box” and Warrior knew that all too well. We have to face truths in order to heal, right? Warriors fight the battle but still need to tend to their wounds.

Do any of you remember my gratitude post of a few years back? I referenced the 2 most important attributes to be grateful for which are your life and health. I had received a wonderful voice memo from my new healer the next day with a practice that came through to her. It was a message for me from my team in spirit. I always believe in the good that comes from “parts unknown” so I took it to heart. She mentioned how gratitude tips will help with my anxiety and I have written plenty down in a journal, but it’s been a while. Her steps were these: for three days~~~ (yes a three count!) I needed to concentrate on the present for day 1, the past for day 2, and to be grateful for a possible future event on day 3. I wrote down 3 answers and reflected on them each in meditation. My desires were to stick with what led me to all this healing in the first place. We have to remember the difficult times too warriors because they make us stronger and give more self love which is needed. My future idea is a trip or vacation so I am “locking that in” 🔑 as she said in order to manifest it coming forth.

That’s how we need to be. This is the time for gratitude as November begins, and before the holidays get underway. I was so overwhelmed by her home visit but was starting to feel a little flushed lying on my couch for almost a few hours! I must say the pets cooperated and I pulled those negative emotions out of me like a magnet. Hopefully, this yucky funk that has been around will dissipate soon as the month has LOTS happening. The session went well and at least this time, I kept my gut intact. 🤢 She’s so cute and understanding, I wanted to just shrink her up and keep her in my pocket! I mean this in a good way of course. Monday marked 5️⃣ years since my psychic friend’s reading at her house which inspired me so much on this warrior experience of mine. 5 years, wow. I’ve been through A LOT and yet there’s always more to come. I’m in such a better place emotionally and am so grateful for those 2 dreams leading me to energy work. Thank you Warrior for your guidance and wisdom as it was much needed and still is. 💙

If this type of post isn’t your thing, no worries. I just like to share what has been working in my life, why I need certain practices, and how it’s important to always remain educated. Even if you roll your eyes 🙄 at energy work or don’t quite understand what it’s about, just know it truly does not have to be part of your life and perhaps may never be. Stuck past emotional trauma will come to the surface in many ways~~~ mostly physical, and I was determined to find the root cause. I’m so grateful (like this month’s theme) that I have. I felt Warrior’s presence in a few ways that day, but I know his response would be to follow my gut. That I am sir, and will continue on my own warrior ways always… 🥹

P.S. I did hear a ringing in my left ear during the end of our session so thank you once again Warrior! 

Saints and Scary Stuff 🙏🏻😱🎃

Tomorrow is Halloween or All Hallows Eve if you prefer. That was always such a busy time when I was younger. The reasons being that day or night really, and the next few days as well. November 1 is All Saints Day and the 2nd celebrates All Souls. Of course those are Christian holidays, but ones we recognized when growing up. Being in 1st grade was when we dress up as our “patron” Saint or one you’d be named after. Yes, us Catholics were named after Saints. It can even be your middle name. Mine is both. I did not purposely continue that tradition with my kids, but it just so happens their middle names are Saints. Well, I was Saint Catherine of Siena (which is a town in Italy) and I totally remember. I bet my old grade school still does that while singing “ When the Saints Come Marching In” at Mass. Such a cute fun time.

This post is supposed to be scary stuff though! I just wanted to reflect on some nostalgia. Many cultures have traditions different than ours as Dia de los Muertos or Day of the Dead is all about parades, parties, and dancing to remember those loved ones who have passed on. The Warrior family acknowledged this being in New Mexico. Here, it’s mostly about the spooky and all that. I still love the cute Halloween costumes or seeing the littles but nowadays~~~ it’s more with scaring the living daylights out of everyone! That isn’t for me. As a teacher, we could never wear or use anything that would frighten a child. I was a clown once 🤡 but didn’t paint my face. I just had a red wig and nose, and that still scared a few! I would tell them: “ it’s just Miss Kathy!” This is back when clowns were remembered for being in the circus and not horror movies. They were considered good and happy…. Maybe you all have read my cat claws story or those times I was more boy costumes. My favorite was Sleeping Beauty. That was when I was a teacher as well. I bet you all have your own costume stories to tell too.

I never even went to haunted houses at all as my friends didn’t either. I’ve also said how horror movies or anything similar is not and will never be for me. My daughter loves some of it though. It affects me way too much despite it not being real. Hey, that sounds familiar! Great lead into some of Ultimate Warrior’s opponents. 2️⃣ come to mine for me. I bet you fans can guess., Of course it would be The Undertaker and Papa Shango. Even though I was older, they still scared me~~~ fake or not. They still would’ve even if Warrior would not have faced them, but obviously not in the same way. There were many other SCARY wrestlers over the years and some just frustrated me. I used to love clowns as a kid like my costume when teaching. I had two clown dolls when I was a girl and one I ordered through a catalog. Horror movies and Doink the Clown ruined the fun aspect of them. I loved dolls too and then they also got put into horror films. UGH… I dislike it! What happened? Why do people like fright so much?

I’ll move onto a scary moment for me 5 years ago yesterday. And, it was a Tuesday just like this year. It has been written but a very unpleasant night for me right before Halloween. I won’t tell the whole story, but it started to happen October 29 when I was carving a pumpkin. My heartbeat went from rapid to very extreme. Thank goodness I was able to make it through my son’s Fall Band Concert before going to the ER that night. No medical issues were detected so that was great news. No one could feel it except me… The following week, my psychic medium friend helped out a lot as yes~~~ I believed. I did not go to her for that reason, but it kind of turned into that as I really needed some other kind of help. Even my husband became more of a believer during that time… BTW, 5 years prior to the day in 2013 WWE released 2K 14 in the US as I will always remember. Yeah, that date again. That was quite a frightful time in 2019 as I felt my heart literally beating out of my chest. It became the beginning of many spiritual gifts opening for me which I was unaware of back then. I had a few other scary moments which then culminated in my ulcer a few years later, but yes folks~~~ it all connects. It’s similar to my girl’s topics with her paper of last week.

Back to this holiday, how do you all celebrate? Is it full of Saints or spooks? Maybe both and as we all know, Halloween isn’t just for kids. It is fun to dress up and I would probably shock people if I was a-fright! I have shocked a few over the years with my choices though. It ends this month of October before the big holiday season begins…

I’ll wrap up with a positive note today. Not entirely saintly, but definitely not spooky. My girl has yet another assignment. This time, it’s designing a book cover for one of her art classes. She asked me for help once again and decided on cats. No, not a black cat that would relate to Halloween, ha ha! She loves cats and definitely our tabby. She had to decide on a byline (as she asked what that was…?) plus colors and images. I did not ask her to look at my book, but she did anyway. Awwww, proud mom moment. 🥹📗 Her book is about a library cat. Can you believe that? She used a book theme! Great lead into mine here. “ Spirit and Belief” is sold where you find books and if you’d like to read about my experiences with Warrior and spirit, look it up. You didn’t think I would let this go without a plug when she designed a book cover did ya? That moment presented itself for sure. 😉 I was so happy with my cover and still am.

However you do Halloween or the celebratory days after, just be safe and have fun. You can be a saint or spook, but avoid the trouble. Let’s honor and respect those who have gone before us in a memorable way and be happy for their time here. That is what they want from us. You can scare but do it in a fun way and not a frightful one. Happy Halloween, All Saints, all Souls, and whatever else you choose. Just don’t dress up as The Undertaker or Papa Shango! 😯Anyone remember 10 years ago when I saw a boy at my son’s school dressed as Ultimate Warrior for their Halloween parade? That was a post all its own and I will link below. Oh, my tears back then… 😭No pic of him on that post although I took a few just for me. The back of him and not his face. I am no stalker! At least I hope those kids didn’t think so…🫣

P.S. 10/30/17

*** Plus, there was someone dressed as a Gorilla 🦍 in front of him!!! Can you believe that? Warrior fans will understand or even fans of Mr. Monsoon… 😳

The Spirit of BELIEF 🏍️💙🤍

Yes, I do realize those two words have been used plenty on here and most importantly with my book title, but there really weren’t any other choices for today’s post. A few weeks ago~~~ you read a lot of anger from me, laughter last week, and now this one is of the spiritual variety. I had to get back to that soon enough, right? Who would’ve guessed with both kids in college that one could still give me ideas!? My girl is at it again. 💡 I almost used the word “paper” with the title as I recall my story of being a senior in high school, writing a history paper and doing research at the library. That’s when I found the WWF magazine with Ultimate Warrior on the cover… *** Let’s get back to the present though with my college freshman’s elective course on DEATH… Yep, she’s kind of fascinated with some aspects and it can get a little morbid. This is about the GOOD though~~~ mostly an afterlife and spirit world (like my book) or whatever you’d like to call it. All of this is ONLY possible if you believe. It’s all about belief.

Before I get into some of this, I’ll just mention this week’s photo along with last week’s. These two I have always wanted to use and yet hadn’t. Last week’s image of UW was sported on a WWE truck years ago as all three Warrior girls had posed in front of it. It’s super popular and I can’t believe it’s never been posted! This week’s motorcycle has also been around as I always wondered who had taken it. 🤔 Who knows what happened to his custom built bike as I have never found that out. There are endless photos to use as I only need a few more for this year… *** Despite some possible skeptics or unbelievers, let’s move into my girl’s almost finished paper.

First off, I was honored that she asked me for help considering her mom is no expert but she knows what I’ve been through, explored, and topics relevant to my life. Next, she decided to focus on primarily the afterlife but also reincarnation, animal spirits, and immortality. It all connects. I shared with her a few books and authors I am aware of although she can google on her own. I know it’s a little confusing, especially based on what we have been taught and then quite possibly how we evolve when older. Many many points she wrote I had to repeatedly correct her on because technically, they aren’t facts. Again, it’s all about a belief system and not necessarily what can be proven. I have said a few times that my initial beliefs aren’t totally gone, they have just become more open minded to other ways. Also, I have had personal things happen to me and even been told things by those I trust so it takes a new turn when it affects your life.

I remember one question she had asked me was this : “ if we leave our body when we die, how is it possible to be up in Heaven ( or whatever else you’d like to call it- parts unknown) and do things?”

She’s referencing the belief once again that when our soul returns, we can experience all that we loved up there as it was on earth. We may possibly choose to come back at another time. If this doesn’t resonate with you, that’s OK but how can you not believe that beautiful image? We don’t have physical proof of course but there are many who have endless stories of being hypnotized or brought into visiting those who’ve passed on through well-known mediums. It’s like visiting briefly because of various reasons, but then being brought back to remember. Yes, you can read endless accounts but if you have little or no belief, this post isn’t for you entirely. *** PLEASE*** keep reading though!

Let’s go back to the photo of Warrior down below on his beloved motorcycle. If any of you recall, I had shared how that was something I mentioned every day during my meditation. I like to say all of his favorite activities or hobbies, at least ones I knew of. For those who are still actively grieving someone or holding onto anger, just imagine and have hope they ARE doing what they enjoyed HERE. Think about someone you know who is passed and despite sadness~~~ picture them in places they loved, interests that gave them joy, or being with people that they were close to. Yes, we will always miss them but we need that hope and belief to cling to. I know for me and all my loved ones, that technique totally works every single time. Just like picturing Warrior on his bike. It fills me with joy too, just like it probably did for him or still does. Don’t get me wrong. I do not go around all day conjuring up images of passed people. That is not my work. Believe it or not, our loved ones DO want to help us in any way that they can. ❤️

If any of you fans have his first comic book~~~ which I wrote about many years ago, it is filled with two full pages where he writes about past lives, evolution, intuition, our higher self, and so much more. You’ll also read about his beliefs of “ Destrucity” which mirrored Buddhism and spirituality. It relates how one must master these attributes in order to evolve, even after we pass.

I will link the wonderful YouTube conversation I had with my fellow published author cousin where we discussed many types of spiritual topics and how much can be revealed through dreams. It’s about what happens when we die so if interested, check it out. Just ignore the end where I reference my website which no longer exists… I could go on and on about all this and more, but I will leave it brief for now. Whatever your believes or how they have involved, just be intentional and believe in the good. Also know that terms you use don’t truly matter. Our Creator , (if you believe in any words) or an afterlife, Heaven, spirit world, etc., are just human words to help us understand a little more. You may not even believe our souls move on or that we can also communicate with our passed loved ones. Experiences may never happen for you and that’s fine. Just remember you are loved and make the best of your life here. This can be our Heaven on Earth as one of my authors states in her book. *** I’ll let you know how my girl’s finished paper turns out. We all have beliefs. It’s up to you though to see them through. Your spirit will always believe… ☺️

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! 😜

Fascinating… yet Ruthless🤬

That title fits for sure. I absolutely had to use some words describing and yet pertaining to it after all, didn’t I? What is she talking about anyways you may ask? I bit the bullet and it hit me HARD… The Ultimate Warrior’s face down below says it all but really~~~ my face was much more contorted. I watched it. All 6 episodes of ” Mr. McMahon,” Netflix’s docu series recently released. Once I watched one, I had to keep going right? One of the words I kept using when texting my brother was “fascinating.” You can apply that word either positive or negative, but I meant indifferent. The other word of “ruthless” fits as Vince McMahon became synonymous with that expression but it also connected to John Cena with while quoting his boss became ” ruthless aggression!” I had finished watching after my bro, imagine that? There’s just a few points I am going to make that DO involve Warrior believe it or not. I also think it’s a 3 count so that fits too. They have to involve Warrior because then today it would be my Mr. McMahon writings and that is not what I am doing. 

Where to begin? Let’s start with the EMF song ” Unbelievable” from 1991. You know what they say in that song? You will from me soon. For fans of UW, we can all agree on this. That infamous 2005 DVD directed at him needs to be redirected at Vince or Mr. McMahon, whatever he prefers to call himself. Yep, that’s what he did. Professionally, not entirely as us fans and the performers owe much to him but business did play a huge part along with his personal life. That’s bad karma coming back with an ultimate vengeance. *** SPOILER ALERTS*** coming so read if you wish. Here are some parts that made me want to shake more than ropes if you know what I mean. I literally was saying WTF (like the song) over and over while screaming at my TV. 🫨 This was only mostly about the first few episodes. My rant wasn’t probably what you could be thinking about all the BIG stuff most fans know already. There were a few I wasn’t entirely aware of, but let me share my fits of inner rage. I’m not objective on any and will defend Warrior on these.

Vince said how he disliked the term “pro wrestling.” That was new for me to hear. He prefers “entertainment,” which is what they became with being the WWE. It is true, but isn’t that what the UW character was doing? I won’t get into previous posts of me going on about “technical” wrestling or entertaining, but how FASCINATING that Warrior gets gutted much in the wrestling media and by former talent for being exactly what Vince was changing the company into. OK, he was the boss while Warrior wasn’t naturally, but can you see where I’m going with this? He’ll get a pass if you will because he can say that but Warrior years ago could not? WTF indeed. 🤯Vince and Warrior had some similarities in their lives as I’ve said before. They both needed a character to release in a way but all of Warrior’s extreme disciplines or beliefs are tame in my opinion to how Vince led his life. BTW, I always thought Vince would’ve made a great choice for those ” 10 Most Fascinating People” specials hosted by Barbara Walters years ago. Remember those?

Let’s move on with some moments from Vince’s talent over the years. Hulk Hogan. Yeah, he was their brand and solidified WWF on the pop culture map indefinitely. I will NEVER take away anything he did for the business ever but how about his statements. Vince asked him to be totally honest on ” The Arsenio Hall Show” about steroids and he totally lied to the world. I knew that. Well, OK that came back to bite him in the A** but here’s the irony. Vince wanted Hulk to tell the truth, good for him. Only then~~~ years later, Vince also lied on the witness stand during his trials with Warrior. After perjuring himself~ luckily he recanted his statement. Yes, we all lie from time to time to protect ourselves but I just found it RUTHLESS how Vince wanted the truth from Hulk and yet couldn’t tell it on his own. I realize those topics differ much, but a lie is a lie. I was screaming folks, 😳 I seriously was and I did know this already. It just wasn’t a front and center memory anymore.

It’s Undertaker’s turn. Yes, yes, we all know his huge loyalty to Vince among many others including Cena, Bruce Pritchard, ( who is Vince’s lapdog 🙄) and The Rock but again, not my point here. I loved when he mentioned protecting his character. I’ve written on that too. He should since after all, his career spanned 30 years. Amazing. His story involved him saying how he wanted to go out in public looking frightful like his character was. He wanted people to think that ” that dude’s not right.” He stated how his idea was for others to think he really was that way. Maybe he was being comical, but it still resonates with me. All right, he didn’t legally change his name like Warrior but really? So, UT probably got commended for maybe doing that but someone else years prior did not. Warrior would get verbally attacked for God forbid, wanting to wear his face paint in public because of his character, but it could be acceptable for UT to look like that scary freak he portrayed? Yup, another WTF time for me. Don’t get me started on more of that. I do believe Warrior would’ve loved seeing UT going out in public like that however…

WHEW… It seems I’ve come to the end if you are still with me. So MUCH more could I add but they are other clips unrelated to Warrior so I will leave it at those. I *** DID *** cry lots too. Not just for all the tragedies, but Shane’s memories . Those really touched me deeply. 🥹Overall, I will say this. Regardless of Vince’s split personalities, he did create a billion dollar business that cemented sports entertainment and made us all fans. That being said, he had a horrible childhood and never faced it, maybe he never will. His business meant more to him than anything~~~ even some of those closest to him or so it seemed. 😐 I have different emotions and found it troubling how few could describe his legacy. I agree with Tony Atlas. The greatest promoter ever. He finally did make his dad proud. I hope someday Vince and Mr. McMahon both find healing in some way. ❤️‍🩹I wanted to pile-drive Vince MANY times while watching this and yet also hug that little boy inside who deserved better…

P.S. Fascinating and Ruthless best describes this series. At least to me anyway. WTF moments are over! Oh, and I couldn’t watch some clips they showed. 🫣They were either too vulgar or too violent. Long live The Golden Era for me…

Eight is GREAT! 8️⃣ 👏🏻✍🏻🙋🏻‍♀️💙

It’s early October. If you’ve been here you know but if not, it’s anniversary time. 8️⃣ years of these warrior writings will be official on the 4th, 7️⃣ years of my book ” Spirit and Belief” getting published on the 7th, (7 on the 7th- yay!) and 10 years of my story about “The Box” told on here ages ago but also detailed in the book. That’s a 3️⃣ count and what a great win! Before “gearing up” today, I’ll address the title a little more. Yes, it rhymes and I liked it but NO~~| it doesn’t reference the 8th of April with Warrior’s passing. Maybe you fans read that as such but it isn’t what my 8 is about and for this post, it’s great! I’ll say it like “Tony the Tiger” in the Frosted Flakes cereal commercials. 😂

I have mentioned spiritual meanings of numbers before so you can look up the GOOD pertaining to 8, but I will always think of it as infinity. When kids, maybe you made your 8 with those two circles as it was easier. Turned sideways, it represents the infinity scroll as you might know. I wanted that logo under my chapter headings when they misunderstood and used a book scroll but it still works. Warrior has infinite energy and so many other good spiritual traits with 8, perhaps it was Destiny how that number came to be with his return back to parts unknown. I love how THAT meaning of THAT number shares with my warrior writings today (or in a few days, technically.) From 2016 to now, how?

Hard to believe a year has passed since I took that pic of me on my living room TV hutch posing for a “selfie” alongside Warrior in a tux from the “Always Believe” DVD. That doesn’t seem like 12 months ago. This month’s photo was quite comical when the idea came. Some of them I just dread as I can’t think of anything creative but then I did! For the first time, you get to see MANY of my posts in their original format scattered on top of my box . I couldn’t leave them inside for as Warrior told me: ” I don’t belong in a box.” More on that in a bit. I wanted to somehow display some as after a few years, I run out of room and up to the attic they go. That’s an even bigger plastic tub which contains writings and my books. I did the best I could showing just a small sample with taking the shot on my own. Any more attempts and my pile of folders would’ve fallen over! Oh will my kids have fun looking at these someday when I’m gone. I won’t wanna watch up above if they don’t, ha ha! I’m sure Dana had to decide what to do with all Warrior’s journals as well. Yep, I have several of those. Not to worry though… I do have them all organized for me. I just wanted to show some of the sheer ultimate volume to you all!

I recently just met up with a friend who wanted to buy my book, how sweet was that? We had a great convo at my house and she is enjoying it so far. She loves the writing and sent the nicest compliments my way. I’m always so touched. 💖 She and I go back several years with my days as a vendor and only after seeing her at a Reiki healing session did she remember my book! I honestly don’t bring it up much anymore, but I’m so glad she felt inclined to personally purchase from me. A beautiful lady indeed with gifts of her own. 7 years, just a few days within a year of the blog. It seems like yesterday and forever ago once again…

That takes us to ” The Box.” I’m not detailing the exact story, but it was funny how I used my actual box and put the writings on top for the photo today. It was only then how I was reminded of as yes~~~ 6 months to the day after he passed, I had the box experience with Warrior that will be 10 years as well in a few days. His other phrase was: ” Don’t put me in a box.” 📦 I will link that post but it is paraphrased from my book. Gosh, my writing was so simple back then. The book story has MORE details than the blog post. My first reaction after reading the post again was: “That’s it?” I didn’t even include my OMG reaction or even questions, but I hope you gain some spiritual Warrior perspective. Always am I still totally overwhelmed but grateful for answers now I didn’t have back then…

Wait a moment here…. *** PAUSE*** While typing that out, my left ear was ringing quite loud. Give me a sec to clear my tears… thank you Warrior… 🥹

There you have my annual 3 October anniversaries as I reflect every year. I am also close to achieving a HUGE number on these writings and if I do the math right, it’ll be coming right in time for the new year. Oh my, 2025 soon it will be. I cannot possibly thank you all in person with those who truly feel compelled to read each week or at least often enough. Honestly, it does mean so entirely much to this warrior woman bringing Warrior to you all in a different way. Always some of my life mixed in because well, it needs to be that way too. If you ever feel like reaching out to share your stories, memories, or positive inspiration from Warrior, please do. A few of you have and I am so honored by your beautiful words. Thank you for your trust as it takes guts to open up to a stranger on the Internet. I do hope you regulars look at me and these writings as more than “strange” after all this time but if you read for the entertainment purpose, I still appreciate the support. 🤍🥰

It’s been an incredible journey, traveling all over the world each week as wherever you are reading makes a difference. It’s such a lost art with us adults anymore like writing which I’ve stated, but it’s so important in many ways. We need to always be educated and learn no matter our age as Warrior himself had said. Social media nowadays occupies much of our free time but for those who look to my blog or any others instead of the latest social post, I bow to you. To those who pick up an actual book, I bow to you. To those who write down ideas, goals, or simply inspiring quotes in a journal, I bow to you too. You get special warrior recognition for those added interests we so still NEED to savor in our lives here. You don’t need to be like Warrior or even myself, but just take time to do what fills you up. If it is a forsaken skill, even better.

Thank you readers for this ultimate ride of 8 or even 7 years! I love sharing and love your interest always. Mr. Warrior~~~ you know what’s it’s in my heart so thank you isn’t enough, but it needs to be for now. ❤️ Here’s to year 9 and keep reading fellow warriors! Happy anniversaries as we begin this new month…~

*** Here’s the post on that experience with Warrior but again- better details in the book. ☺️📗

P.P.S. You can find book info on Amazon and other retailers if interested in my beginnings with wrestling, the Ultimate Warrior, and then Warrior in spirit… It’s a humorous diary of sorts with lots of little stories! ““Spirit and Belief.” Thank you all and always follow your intuition…

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… 😌👏🏻

P.S. Here’s the 40th link!

Ultimate Birthday Celebrations 🥳🎂🎉

Hi everyone! Hope you are all doing well wherever you find yourself reading. Since tomorrow marks my date of birth into this world, I thought to share some memorable or as the title suggests “ultimate” birthday moments with you all today. I bet you can think of certain ones that stand out or perhaps win a match in your life, but I have a few that came to me as being pretty special so let’s “lock up” for some fun! 

Most can be considered milestones, but I guess people put more work into some of those. My 1️⃣0️⃣th was a surprise and maybe because of double digits, not sure. Every year, my grandparents visited for all our special days but this time for me was different. They’d mail the card with money but when arriving, they asked me to come outside to the car. Huh? Why? It so happened my cousin who is the same age as me was hiding down low in the backseat! I was so happy she came. We had a lot of fun and I was very touched how my aunt worked with my grandparents to bring her. 🥹

Let’s skip several years ahead now to my 1️⃣6️⃣th . Yes, that’s called “sweet 16” for most girls and my friends gave me wishes but it was celebratory in another way with family. My mom started this tradition of when our grandparents came for that birthday, we each got to pick a restaurant to have dinner. Mind you~~~this doesn’t sound like a huge deal nowadays but back then, it truly was. We rarely ate out as a family or even got fast food. Those were luxuries and not something we did often, if ever. I can still remember the place I chose. It’s called something else now but what a treat to look forward to and then have culminate in a great time.

This next one is yet another milestone but it’s too sweet to forget. It was my 2️⃣1️⃣st . Yes, most people have that first alcoholic drink. I can’t believe my son is approaching that age soon… 😳 I did have that drink, but it’s not what you may think. At a bar with my besties? Nope. I actually mentioned this birthday once a few years back with coworkers throwing me a lunch at work but this time, it was dinner. Dinner with my Dad. I can’t recall specifically if my Mom was at a weekend event with my college age sister then or if Dad just took me out. Either way, he asked me and I said yes. We ate at this Mexican place (no longer there) and I got to wear the sombrero! I always wanted to do that as the staff sang “Feliz Cumpleanos” to me! Dad continued the surprise of gifting me this beautiful sapphire (my birthstone) and diamond ring. 💍 No, it’s not real of course~~~ha ha but so pretty and unexpected. I saved the photo of me with mouth open, wearing the sombrero while opening the ring box. I think I had a margarita too. 🍹A great birthday with my Dad I’ll always remember. Fried ice cream for dessert, 😋 !

Now, we’ll fast forward many years later with husband and kids. My 4️⃣0️⃣th brought a great early summer trip to San Diego, CA in 2012. We went to SeaWorld and then saw family who lived out there in the area. Such a cool experience to share that ocean trip to the Pacific~~~ 🌊 my first time and also to give my kids Shamu who I enjoyed as a kid. SeaWorld here in Ohio closed long before my kids and I loved it all when I was young. The best part was getting to swim with a dolphin, my lifelong dream. 🐬I’ve also mentioned this before but it was so overwhelming to hear of my husband’s plans for my big 4-0. I cried when we left. I got to see the Hollywood sign, the Chinese theater, and all the stars I wanted on the “Walk of Fame.” One of my best b-day ever!

Here comes number 5 as initially I thought this was gonna just be a 3 count, ha! I apologized to Warrior profusely for almost excluding this one but I’m sure he’d just uproariously laugh at my indiscretion and then maybe relay a joke 🤭or two. How could I possibly exclude 2016? That was 4️⃣ years after my 40th for those doing the math. 😜That also brought the batteries 🔋 🔋story which has been shared here many times as it is in my book. I even made a YouTube video on it back then. The song, ” The Flame” by Cheap Trick will always be special to me and finding the word warriors on those batteries was so unreal. When I told a good friend~ his comment was : “they will run forever!” He meant the batteries naturally. I wonder if he remembers that? I sure do and always will… 🥰Oh, that year with all its ultimate goodies, I could barely keep up. “The Mysterious Batteries” post is STILL viewed as one of my top five of all in these almost 8️⃣ years so many thanks goes out to you readers.

That ends my ultimate birthday celebrations but a quick mention of last year. I had to do 6️⃣, that’s my number ya know! No, not a milestone but I received a wonderful awesome gift in the mail which totally made me very emotional. I have found many Bluejay feathers around my b-day and did recently but this gift filled me with such gratitude, I couldn’t forget to tag it in. A million thanks goes out to my wonderful friend. 🩷🤗Thank you also to Warrior for his countless inspiration in so many numerous ways, I could never list them all. Expect the unexpected and rejoice in the little things as they are worth it too.

I do wish you all many memorable birthdays as we recall the past, but look forward to the future. Live in the present as *** THAT*** is your present or gift always. 🎁 Celebrate your life the way you want and hopefully others will too. I treasure them all, and also cannot believe I am nearing Warrior’s last number he got here before “running” back to parts unknown… 😔May all your birthdays be ultimate celebrations too!

P.S. I wore that sapphire ring last week… It made me think of “Sweet Sapphire!” You gotta say it like Dusty Rhodes did! WWF fans will know this!!! 💙💎
