The Blogging Guest 😴

This post ends the month of September friends. It also brings the end to many of those WWE YouTube vault WCW pics of Warrior although I do have a similar one to use for October. Today though, I will share a few dreams that came and maybe you have your own meaning as I’m sure you do. BOTH concern those anniversaries I have with the blog and book actually next week so maybe that got into my subconscious, who knows? We just had another full moon too so yes, readers that happens to me as well. I can offer another reason behind the 1st one so if you are ready, let’s go!

To preface the first one, have any of you possible Hulk Hogan fans ever heard his story about shortly after Roddy Piper passed? I’ve heard it but saw on media lately so gave it another listen. Hulk relates how in their later years he tried explaining Jesus as his Savior to Roddy and similar beliefs but “ Hot Rod” wasn’t entirely convinced. They weren’t good friends much in their wrestling years. So, a few days after Roddy left Earth~~~ Hulk got a voice message (memo although he didn’t call it that) on his phone. He became teary explaining the story, but it was from Piper. Hulk could hear his voice saying how he’s “ walking with Jesus” and how it’s great. He said nobody could’ve set that up or tricked him. I believe in those stories and what a beautiful message for Hulk to receive. I love it. THAT prompted my dream although always bizarre ones at times.

I was going to an open house in this dream. We moved late May but went to many over the months time. Perhaps I’m still processing. For some reason, I was alone looking at this house which was extremely odd. It so could’ve been part of one of those weird house shows on TV with many detailed rooms and multiple floors. Way too much to get into on here…. My brain does give me specifics that I can hardly contain. I kept saying to people I had to go and couldn’t be late because I was a guest on a talk show later. The hosts wanted to interview me about my book which is almost 9 years old now! 📗 Maybe it wasn’t in this dream? I was so excited to chat about my stories so I had to look at this strange house pretty fast. It was like wanting to get the heck out of there but wanting to see it through to the end. Well, I leave and make it to the TV studio.

I have no idea on the woman cohost, but the man? You’ve probably guessed by now. “ Rowdy Roddy Piper!” I did write a post on him and Warrior a few years ago that concerned their similar backgrounds with father issues from those bio specials. Maybe he came again because of my interest in his message to Hulk? Can you fans imagine him cohosting a show like that? I know he had “ Piper’s Pit” and did act in a few movies but this seemed unbelievable. He started to ask me questions but the dream ended there, darn. 😑 I’m sure it would’ve been great TV with his craziness and personality. Glad I was a guest after all and to plug my book. *** Oh, just had more ear ringing fun when typing this out… Thank you Team Spirit and Warrior, maybe Roddy? I was a guest at the open house, the talk show, and now onto the 2nd dream where once again, me as the blogger brought my stories to others.

The second dream concerns something I’ve mentioned on here and yes, in some ways is still part of me. I was holding onto all these papers which were a pretty big pile. I realized what they all contained. It was stacks of the blog I found myself bringing to my old church! Not the one that was built 40 years ago but the one I grew up going to. Why in the world would this come to me? I’m still purging religion in my dreaming state but haven’t gone regularly in over 6 years. It’s not part of my life as I’ve become (or remembered) my spiritual self more and yes friends, they are different. You can group them together, most do. I however, do not in the same way any longer. I hope no one reading is offended but if you are, we all have our own opinions and beliefs, and that should be respected.

So, as I was walking along, the wind picked up and blew many of my beloved papers everywhere. Folks were going into the building and instead of helping me, they just grabbed a few, read a little, and laughed. I angrily snatched them away or gather them up from the ground. I told them how they were mine and not for them to read. Maybe I was judging them, maybe they were judging me, no clue. I’m not saying my posts aren’t for the religious ones as I should not assume but their giggles rattled me. I defended myself as a warrior and Warrior himself while proceeding to enter the church. I was inside but still had no idea why I was truly bringing all these and for whom? God already knows and I don’t need a church building for his knowledge. Whatever “person” or group was going to look at them was never made known to me. I was a guest as anyone can be in a church but not entirely sure why.

I always had God’s support, it’s just others of a different breed who may not agree or believe in my writings. It isn’t just the blog posts, but also the book with all my musings (remember that word?) and spirit talk concerning Warrior. It isn’t for those who are not open to receive and perhaps I was assuming with the glaring churchgoers. I do know some who have my book and are religious so there ya go. The dream was over, but as usual~~~ my confusion sets in. Maybe the message is that I never needed anyone’s approval with my writings despite the “chokehold” church seemed to have over me for many decades. If you are an avid church goer, that’s great~~~ for YOU. For me though, not so much in this part of my life. You know what? Either way is fine as we all need acceptance like last week, right? Both dreams did involve religion with Roddy and Hulk plus my old church.

Thank you my warriors for reading this week as I end the month. I thank “ Hot Rod” too for choosing me to visit in some form. That talk show would’ve been hilarious, don’t you think? So grateful as well to be done with open houses as maybe my brain has to catch up. Hello? I loved looking at different houses but don’t miss the process. I don’t miss the process of church either although some rituals I found beautiful. Me as the guest blogger at a house, a talk show, and my old church grounds. Man, those were odd BUT I try my best figuring them out. If you have insights, let me know. Does anyone else have an active dreaming state like me? I would love to hear. I’ll catch up with you all next week for a (spoiler alert…) reflection post on those anniversaries. It’ll be WAY different than the usual. 🥹✍🏻

***Another funny to add is I saw my neighbor again. Guess what shirt he was wearing? One of these days, one of these days warriors. ☺️

P.S. Grateful too to speak about my book with Roddy as I can’t imagine and to defend my writing to those who mock. My words speak truth about Warrior, always… 💙 Oh, and Warrior was a guest on a talk show in another dream. Can you recall?

P.P.S. Here’s another first that has never happened in almost 5 years! When we were at the college football game last weekend, they played a snippet of the song: “ The Warrior” by Scandal over the sound system. They play music in between all of the plays as some songs I recognize and some I don’t. I just sat there, stunned 😳 in total disbelief. I could not believe it! They lost the game, but I love how I heard that song! 🎵 💪🏻Giggles for a good reason this time…

You Don’t Belong? Good… 🤷🏻‍♀️👏🏻🥹

A few weeks ago now, we had Patriot Day here in the U.S. Several years back, I had written a post on that exact date. I negated to mention it as I typically do so my many apologies. It needed to be referenced because of the unbelievable milestone of 2️⃣5️⃣ years. That horrific tragedy impacted us all, and we are so incredibly grateful to those men and women who sacrificed their lives for ours. I reflect on the children as well now all grown up or some too young to remember. It showed what a great country we can be while standing united. After all, that is part of our name. I wish we can embody that word of united once more as in many ways, we are not. Let’s not enable a horrific tragedy to bring us together. Let’s BE united anyways, every day. There…. That’s my reflection on Patriot Day’s huge anniversary while striving for unity always in my United States of America. 🇺🇸 ❤️🤍💙🗽🕊️

Just last week, I got my annual renewal subscription to this blog for another year. Next will mark 11. I have to get there, right? I mean~~~ of course as that’s a big spiritual number for me in many ways. It is my master with numerology but I realize that doesn’t resonate with some. No problem. I just know more so 11 will be very cool achieving. I will get double digits here in just a few weeks but more on that then. 2027 will also mark 10 for the book so you’ll be hearing more if you keep reading. I thank you all that are here every week but if new, welcome! I’m grateful for your presence through these words as I always hope they resonate in some fashion.

More pics of Warrior from his WCW days as one more will linger a bit into October. That month brings an assortment of photos as you will have to stay tuned for those. *** Something recently brought to my attention was another event of Warrior’s on my birthday. This one actually happened on that date and wasn’t pre-recorded like many are. By the time we would see anything on TV, it transpired a few weeks prior. Anyways, it was a match with Warrior against Ric Flair who was the WWF champion then. That match was 9/19/92. Wait, that’s when we saw the “ Ultimate Maniacs”form on Superstars! Yep, there’s the whole taping in advance remember. So, I knew Warrior had a few matches with Flair, but not the dates. There was another one in October too. Warrior won both but not the title because both victories were as a result of a DQ so the belt can’t change hands. Fans know this I’m sure. Well, no idea that one match (which another BTW is in a magazine I own) was on my b-day and not pre-taped. How about that? Now, I do have a three count of 9/19. One match, two promos. One wasn’t televised so I can’t watch it. Still cool to know. The magazine photo was from October.

How is everyone doing today? We are into Autumn or Fall here officially where I live. Yesterday was when it changed so the weather will start to be cooler with the leaves 🍁 🍂 turning and falling. We shall see how this season plays out. I wish you all well during these last few months of the year.

To “tag” in a new topic here and to reference the title today, I will share a little of this video recently viewed. This woman has amazing insights and I have followed her a while on YouTube. I’m not over following like I did years ago but sometimes~~~ just need that pick up of a fellow spiritual who gets beyond the surface to the root. That’s me. She totally identifies with some syndromes of being in this field for years as I myself find out to be true. Do you find yourself over trying to get that tribe even though you think you have it? I’m seeking more true and real friends with our families’ move but I see my patterns of overdoing this every time. I get so frustrated and know Warrior struggled with this as well. I realize things need to be appreciated as a blessing, not a curse. If you think negative, that’s what you’ll get. I need to stop doing that so her words totally helped me.

She expressed how some of us need to break those traditional ways and a cycle of people pleasing, fake drama, and how it’s always been done. We want genuine connections but for us~~~ it seems one-sided at times. She gave me hope in knowing I do have a higher purpose, despite some of these friendship struggles that repeat. Maybe many of us spiritual folks (if you are one) simply need more acceptance while still doing the work in ways we know how. Nothing can be forced but without trying a little, we get nowhere. I just have to back off and tag in my Creator a little more. It’s hard for us Virgo perfectionists so I need to give myself a break. Maybe this is one of my great lessons here but I’m still fighting that match. I can’t tap but need to tag…

Can you relate to any of this readers? If not, maybe on some level in your life you see similarities. We require acquaintances but still crave those close people as I do have a few. I’d like a few more though universe. It may not happen because my goals might be in other ways so her thoughts were encouraging. I just might have to keep that video as it was unlike anything else I have heard from others in this field. It’s all a learning process every day. This is my way though with writing, so I get it all out~~~ despite who’s reading. I know Warrior felt the same as he had other outlets outside of wrestling and we all need them. We can’t keep searching for that elusive “thing” or even a “person” when sometimes~~~ even with our actions, acceptance needs to happen. That’s another of my words that’s hard to accept, (pun intended) but surrendering is what my soul can do. You don’t give up but just ask for help. Not where you do nothing but just admit you can’t do it all. There’s a difference between them.

So warriors, that’s my words today. Remember those events of the past and yet accept the now for what it is. If you feel “different” like me, maybe you do need another perspective and to just see yourself in a more positive light. We can do all the work but still need to tag in that person to lift our spirit. Thank you all for reading and enjoy the season where you are.

P.S. While reading this back out loud to myself, my left ear started to ring. Thank you universe for that message I needed to hear. I don’t belong with some but need to believe there are reasons why. The part I was reading concerned acceptance…🤗🤍✨

The Beauty of Being 🩷

You will see a rare selfie of me down below but I can use one now because in 3 days, I will celebrate another year on this planet. You just might see one more in a few weeks as yet another day to celebrate will be upon me. I will share with you all soon enough… 🥹Like I said in a P.S. a few weeks ago, I am turning the age of Warrior’s last full one on Earth so a little bittersweet to pause upon… Always should we honor each birthday because none are guaranteed, ever. Some don’t like the attention but we all deserve it and it’s not wrong. Even if you do something on your own, do it. Every b-day matters, despite not having a milestone or a big party people may throw for you. That’s my main event message to any reading today. No, you don’t need tons of gifts or other stuff but still take time to reflect on your own beautiful life. Age can be just a number and in the grand scheme of things, we are here for such a short time. Just don’t overindulge where it isn’t healthy. The beauty of being can only be defined by you so bring that concept into your life if you haven’t just yet. 🥳

I also have to remember those 2 memorable (at least always to me) promos that just happened to be released on TV. the day of my birthday, 9/19. The first was Dingo who I referenced last week in 1986 and the second was the formation of the “ Ultimate Maniacs,” Macho Man Randy Savage and of course the Ultimate Warrior in 1992. Those dates were 6 years apart, my number again. I will be watching both naturally along with my annual tradition of wait~~~ do you readers know?

Maybe you do, but those new here may not. It’s the Ultimate Challenge of WMVI with Hulk and Warrior. I’ve told that story many times on here, but yes, all 3~~~ a 3 count will be viewed by me probably on Friday when I’ll have more time than my actual day of Saturday. No, I don’t watch WMVI (as maybe you all think) but the anniversary in April and my b-day will always bring them forward. I will forever keep this tradition going as long as I can because it’s ME and fills my spirit up every time. I’m sure any other wrestling fans have their favorite matches, promos, and everything in between as well so watching makes us remember. It’s nice to at least feel a little connected to a fun time in pro wrestling that means or meant so much… ❤️💛🧡💚

Here are a few quotes I will share that I recently found in a book. Yep, I’m onto other material and this poem many may know. It’s from “ Desiderata” written in the 1920s by Max Ehrmann. It has been translated to mean “ things to be desired” as we navigate earthly challenges while remaining true to ourselves in spirit. Not to be “ woo- woo” ( no~ Ric Flair, ha!) but it’s who we are while experiencing all life has to offer. I think it appropriate as I ponder my next year here but hope you take away some nuggets of wisdom moving ahead. Bring what you want and leave the rest.

~ … “ everywhere life is full of heroism.”

~ “ Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.”

~ “ You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.”

~ “ And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.”

~ “ In the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.”

~ “ … it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.”

*** Just noticed 6️⃣ quotes. Again, not on purpose…

There’s beauty in being here friends. I hope you always find it, even on the hard days.

A side note to add here is this. Sometimes with these writings, I do have a topic and photo but not always a title right away. This is one of those posts today. It came to me when copying down those 6 quotes from that book above. Some words get used on here multiple times and no idea on those mentioned today. I decided not to look it all up this week. The beauty of being is a statement we all need to consider even though some may shrug it off. I get it. I know my level of going deeper isn’t always for many but I do hope it inspires you to quite possibly look at a few areas of your own life differently. Warrior spoke often in his later videos about just enjoying being alive with all life has to offer. Yes, some may say he knew his time here was limited but he also was extremely philosophical concerning various topics as fans can attest. Fame also factored in with his life and realizing over the years how important it is to revel in our precious time and make it matter because it honestly does.

As I approach this birthday, I will embrace all of what life sends me to “wrestle” with in these next 12 months. Just doing what I can in the best way as I hope all of you are the same. There is beauty in being because this is our chance to be here fully. Yes, there will be ultimate challenges and things that test us but it’s all in how we get up off that mat on the arena floor and rise with victory. We are all warriors that must always defend ourselves in battle but do so with not just grit, but also compassion. It’s OK to be tough yet gentle as it encompasses both parts of us. The tough part is what I’m working on with others all the time but we need to start with ourselves first.

Who knows if I’ll get any fun “signs” around my birthday this year as frequently I do. If they’re worth sharing with you all, I will. Do I need them? No, not really but like most who get that vibe, it’s awesome to receive. They make me smile as I always think any from my team in spirit for lighting up my day. Most are telepathically but I remain open to any possible Warrior connections that warm my heart. ☺️🫶🏻

Well, readers this match is over today as I will treasure the beauty of me being here for as long as I can be. You do the same as it doesn’t have to be a huge special day to manifest that saying.

*** More WCW pics of Warrior next week! Oh, go find that poem. You might enjoy it…

P. S. I took that selfie before my husband and I celebrated our anniversary dinner. (:

Face or Heel? 🤔💙🖤

Well, hello there, loyal readers! How did we do for the first week of month 9? Today is the 9th too. It is also my cat’s 9th birthday, that’s a lot of 9’s… BTW~~~ September is the 9th month with 9 letters. Only one that matches, just sayin’. A little bit of random number trivia to start off today. That does lead me into another big year of sorts. I was thinking with kids back in school to MY life back when I started high school. Why? I’m not sure but possibly because it was a milestone being 40 years ago in 1986. Yep, you read that right. I was a freshman, not quite 14 and had been watching the WWF a few years by then. No Ultimate Warrior until the following year which will be 40 next November! That was his TV debut, not actually with the company. So, back in ‘86 at this time of year~~~ the Dingo Warrior was still a heel. I had to check, I’m not into full stats on him or any of the guys THAT much. Dingo became a face in October of that year. He had ended with his tag team partner Sting earlier in June.

Fans may know (as I forgot) how Dingo started there as a tag team too partnered with Lance Von Erich. He was “outed” later on as not being related to the family even as a “cousin” back then. It does help to look up info if my brain goes there, but once in that loop~~~ it’s hard to stop, isn’t it? Who would’ve guessed Warrior would return to WCW (minus a C) years later just like he did to WWE (minus the F) as well. Before becoming the iconic good guy Ultimate Warrior eventually evolved into, his last match as the Dingo heel was part of that tag team with Lance. They lost to the Freebirds in June 1986 at none other than the Superdome in NOLA. I did NOT know that! Maybe at some point I did but like previously stated, some details I don’t memorize.

I find that trivia amazing as most may remember that Warrior as Jim Helwig won “Mr. Georgia” for Jr. bodybuilding at NOLA in 1984, two years prior. Fast-forward 28 years (just an eight with that 2) to 2014 and NOLA once again became part of his history of being inducted into the HOF during WMXXX weekend. I knew both of those naturally but not his earlier connection with NOLA back in ‘86. That was in June just like arriving to WWF the following June in 1987. He really did have some full circle moments, didn’t he? I wrote about it all too. I still find some of it fascinating as you know I am a numbers and dates girl. It just makes me pause sometimes… I started all this with thinking 1986 was (let’s say) Dingo Warrior’s first full year in pro wrestling so it made me think of what I was doing back then. Of course, earlier in the year was still 8th grade for me~~~ yikes! 😳 40 years is a huge chunk of time and life, absolutely! Possibly some of you readers aren’t even that age yet, oh my. I guess if you are too young~~~ this post isn’t for you but as always, I thank you for reading anyways?!

Did any of you avid fans of UW, W, or even his younger days as part of the Freedom Fighters , and then Blade Runners prefer him as a heel? I’ve seen a few matches of him as that bad guy and we all know which character truly made him a superstar. You are allowed to like the heels, remember? You can enjoy those bad guys or even yesteryear with Warrior’s early life. It was exciting and him up for quite the future in sports entertainment. Without one, another wouldn’t have followed, right?

I know most of us try so hard being a face or good character, which is our life or at least I hope you do. I have mentioned a few “bad” type of things I have done but they never made me a heel, that’s for sure. Maybe in a past life but honestly, I just don’t think it’s in my DNA. If I *WAS* a WWE performer, possibly I could be convinced to think outside my comfort zone but the fan just might see through my “evil” exterior to the real me inside. I really don’t know. There would have to be some truly great writing and storytelling as yes, I could pull it off! What would my name be?, Another fun one to think about. Which would YOU be and why? They all change so often anymore, it’s so hard to tell these days. Good? Bad? Face? Heel? Today it’s one, next week is another. That’s the nature of the business but it isn’t a constant for me and won’t be again. You can have it all but me, my days are long gone of being that devoted fan of gee~~~ around 11 to 20 years old. I admire you lifers but I’m the old school girl who loves the nostalgia. I know enough like I’ve said and see clips sometimes or look at media but nope, not for me anymore.

I’m gonna take that face or good quality as my win but occasionally we wander over and tag to the other side. It’s only natural and we don’t have a WWE contract saying we can’t. We are supposed to take risks but how costly do they have to be? Warrior WAS good (but made amends) like we all want to do but sometimes our decisions “paint” us as bad. It happens to us all but when in the public eye, we’ll get noticed more. Sure, he said and did things many ~~~ including myself at times disagreed with but that didn’t make him a heel by my standards. Others will use different names here, 😬 but I don’t and won’t. Even after all these years. Nope, I just won’t. I can’t speak for his 40 years ago BUT I can for the several in and out of the ring. Some I followed more than others but it’s just not in me to have a heel type of persona~~~ as this applies to others too. There are many I dislike in life but my guilt takes over and I know too much now on differing levels of a few WHY’s with folks.

So, warriors~~~ what is it for you, face or heel? Maybe it’s both depending on your situation but you all know mine. From age 14 to now, 40 years later I’m still the same and deep down~~~ you probably are too. I can’t tell you how to be or who to root for, but it’s like the angel/ devil complex I wrote about a while back only with wrestling terms. I do know some people who need to have that heel persona but it’s only their professional look and not their real one. I just hope to not say the same thing only as the opposite.

Those heels make us think or act in ways we wouldn’t normally but we do need them to learn how to best be or not to be!!! Life would not be as interesting without them, we can agree. Just allow the real you to bust out of that hold or maybe ditch the face paint so we’ll see the good because it’s there, in character or not.

I won’t have another 40 years on this planet (highly unlikely) so who really knows but still I’ll stick to be that face who I know of myself as true. I did have a Grandma live to be 98 though! Thank you Warrior for all your “runs” in the business. I’m grateful to know another part of him which I know on a deeper plane to always be good or should I say “ FACE!” 😉😇☺️

September’s Spiritual Soul ♍️🤍🙏🏻

We are in month 9️⃣ , my birthday one so it’s always a spiritual time for my soul, ha! I had to use a 3 count of S words you know. This month brings those WCW “moments” I mentioned last week so you’ll see that theme with Warrior the next few photos. There will be a break in the middle, however… 🙋🏻‍♀️ Well, another 3 count happened as I knew overtime it would, truly I did. Oh~~~ the giggles 🤭 that came once again. It involves something recently that I’ve mentioned obviously twice already. It connects to UW and me living here. Is the suspense killing you? All right, I’ll “tag” you in. My neighbor wore the UW blue shirt AGAIN, but it was so early in the A.M. when he was walking his dog, I couldn’t just run over could I? I will, I will, I will soon. It’s a promise and that match is going to happen!

That’s the “face” or good tag team of this match but now we’ll focus a little on the “heel” or bad tag team for just a moment as I need to be fair, right? We all know 1991 was 35 years ago and a milestone so that year is one I will focus on just a bit in this arena. Being UW fans, I bet just like me~~~ the only and I will say only great thing that year of 35 years ago and 91 was WMVII. That retirement or career ending match between UW and Macho “ King” Randy Savage was so memorable and by many standards (not just my own…) should’ve been the main event. Yes, OK~~~ they wanted Hulk back on top by defeating Sergeant Slaughter as the Gulf War was going on and fans needed that Iraqi sympathizer out as champ! We all know he defeated UW to get the heavyweight belt at the Royal Rumble earlier that year. 😡 I did love UW’s promos leading up to WMVII as they are some of my faves! Randy caused him to lose the belt, ya know…

So, after WMVII that March, UW got involved with Jake “the Snake” Roberts in a series of vignettes on location in order to defeat the Undertaker after that casket episode of Paul Bearer’s “ The Funeral Parlor.” That, then proceeded in a series of bodybag matches between UW and UT throughout the summer now on the WWE’s vault YouTube channel. I decided to “rope” both in together, but no Kathy won’t be looking at any of those. I can think of other feuds they should release instead of them. They probably have but I don’t follow. I’m not biased but some of those matches were not that exciting and yes, I know many of you are shocked to hear me say that. I am just glad UW finally got his revenge against UT as nothing is the same as being put in a casket, right? People say UT got to UW’s “soul” so that fits with the title a little.

I guess that part is 1/2 of the heel team so here’s the other 1/2 of that team. I combined Jake and UT but can’t forget the month of August we just had as fans know what 1991’s SummerSlam was all about. After that “handicap” match of UW and HH against Sarge, General Adnan, and Colonel Mustafa, (we knew that was Iron Sheik,) UW was gone from WWF. We didn’t see him again until a brief appearance to help “rescue” HH at the end of WMVIII. I loved how it was April 5, which was UW’s Hall of Fame date (years later…) and in his home state of Indiana but that’s not the yea I’m referencing now, is it?

Let’s just say WMVII of ‘91, 35 years ago is my only fondness with UW of that time and since I was always for the good guys, that will get the win from me every single time, EVERY time. Although Randy reuniting with Elizabeth was a great win! No other win that year for me and I know all you UW fans will agree. How can you not? OK, we do have to have heels and bad guys and they do need to win sometimes. We crave the storytelling to fill our souls, true? Despite what we don’t like, it’s all part of our emotions. Maybe it doesn’t fill your spiritual soul as that’s a bit much for some but we still like who we like and will despite the outcome.

How will you fill your spiritual soul this September readers? It doesn’t have to be some huge match but just start with a jobber or “enhancement talent” first and work your way up to legends~~~ metaphorically speaking, of course. No caskets, snakes, or handicaps are needed either. Not to mention being a sports entertainer with a huge company and appearing on TV. Nope, we won’t do any of those things but I hope this month brings you matches you will remember. We do need the good, bad, and ugly as part of our soul. The great should be part of it too! UW or W is part of my spiritual soul, and I don’t need a milestone year to know that either. I just wish whatever the outcome is, you will not let it become the winner with everything you do. YOU are the winner~~~ not wrestling, others, or things out of our control. We are the ones who choose how to react and then respond to situations. Be elated, mad, disappointed, or anything but just let it pass when it needs to and continue to fill your spiritual soul with the good.

I will as well and that includes my birthday with finally talking to my neighbor about the good old days of WWF! I’m sure he’ll keep wearing the shirt too. I won’t be standing on an arena floor with a microphone like Warrior is doing in that pic below but will do my best sharing is only I can. We’ve had other convos so I’m sure it’ll be an easy win. Plus, he knows I love his dog Lucy so another win for the good! That will also fill my spirit so it’ll work for September. Great month to talk to another fan IN PERSON about the Golden Era as those opportunities are few and far between with me. How do we have only 3 more months in this year of 2026? We’re close to being down to the three count on that too. It’s still hot 🥵 here so summer isn’t done in my neck of the woods just yet. I’m never ready for the cold winter but maybe a little cooler temps.

I will end on that today, warriors. I wish you all a beautiful month with many spiritual filled and soulFULL moments however you define them. I’ll stick to my good face tag teams and let those bad guy heels fade away. You can have your faves, but I have mine too. Welcome to September! Let’s make it ultimate no matter whose side you are on. Please though, always be on YOUR side and choose yourself. You matter more than any WWF, WWE, or wrestling memories. They all become part of our journey but our soul is spirit winning at life every moment…

P.S. I will be turning the age of Warrior’s last one on this planet soon. He was super close to another, however. Truly soulful for me… 🥹

My Wholehearted Wednesday 💯🩷💪🏻

“ Wise men speak because they have something to say.” ~ Plato

*** ( wise women do too…)***

I haven’t used a quote in a while and that one was found in book number 2️⃣ I’m reading. Plato will be brought back to a convo in just a little bit. This is the last post of August readers! It’s been quite the busy month as now starts school and those 🏈 football games. I wish all who are parents of kids a wonderful new year of learning and growth where you find yourself in this world of success. Also, NEVER have I used a day of the week in a title. Can’t believe Wednesday has never made an appearance! 😳

You’ll see that pic of Warrior below and yes, he was blond then to end the month. I do have that video saved but that’s not where I found it. He was talking about “Hollywood Hogan” and the new OWN. Yet another one I had never used. I got that clip from the WWE’s YouTube Vault channel. They recently released all of Warrior’s WCW “moments” throughout those brief two months or so when he was there. I’m not sharing the link as you fans can search it up if interested. It’s lengthy now~~~ about 1.5 hours so I watched in segments. I had seen most but a few only rarely so after debating whether or not to watch, I’m glad I did. You’ll notice more pics from those moments coming up in September as a new theme and month is upon us.

The next subject to reflect upon had just come to mind so I decided to share with you all even though it’s more fitting for November. So, the last time I saw UW on my TV was when I was 20. Most probably know this but that was back in ‘92 which ended his time with the WWF until 3.5 years later in ‘96. I just turned 20 that September and I had no idea he’d ever return after late November. I’m sure he didn’t either. Needless to say, early ‘93 was a little sad in that way with me until fully realizing I’d only been watching those last few months to see UW anyway. I still followed the other guys and their storylines but once I stopped~~~ truly my interest wasn’t there much anymore. This all comes forward because my girl turned 20 earlier this year. You know~~~ right around the time of our move! OK, yes this has been a real idea but with all the craziness sometimes here~~~ it slipped my mind. It’s just bittersweet to think how I was her age when my life of watching the WWF on a regular basis was over. I had a good run but little did I know then how W had more “runs” left in him. I’ll probably think about this again come “Survivor Series” time, but just thought to write it out today. And~~~ I did still watch in ‘91 after he was gone 6 – 7 months.

Another really cool milestone for me ( and Warrior) happened last week. I had already written that post so wanted to wait to post for this week. We have a HUGE milestone in October. We’ll just add a number, sorta…. Last Wednesday (on blog day actually) marked exactly 1️⃣ year since I first started using that spirit app I mentioned a while back. Do any of you remember me detailing some of that? It’s a different way of communicating with passed loved ones and yes, can be controversial. I did my research much before finally committing to a session. I got nervous at first and deleted my content. It’s been great though to keep track in my notebooks although I still can’t find a few after the move, ugh! I won’t personally share what I receive but some answers are truly amazing and clear. Some answers remain a mystery but like Warrior always said~~~ always believe and that I do because with our relationship, there is no doubt.

I was skeptic at first readers~~~ believe me on that but after a time, it’s been truly fascinating. Not to mention funny, rewarding, and yet at times frustrating. I do my best as this method has been around but certain questions will not be asked or even answered. I refrain from much but then other topics, I put out there and document responses. Not just wrestling ones either! You can think it’s crazy if you wish and no, I am not doing this out of desperation. It’s merely a new approach to connecting and many spiritual folks with a desire to learn more give it a go. I’m honored by just interpreting as only I can but there’s trust too. So, it’s been a year and I’ve taken breaks along the process. I thank Warrior always for his continued guidance and love sent my way. 🥹

That leads into my final topic of discussion today. Plato is a part of this if you read his quote at the beginning. The second spiritual book brings his name forward (no “Kathy” in this one, ha!) Few others mentioned in the book Warrior looked to often for their philosophies, way of life, or even belief systems which he began exploring on his own. He even painted a few I believe so thought it fitting to share a common belief held by them. Let’s see~~~ besides Plato, there was Ralph Waldo Emerson, (one of W’s faves), Mark Twain, (another fave of his and daughter Mattigan’s middle name), George Patton~~~ (the army General and I think W did paint him?,) Henry David Thoreau, (another philosopher like Plato and one of my faves), author Jack London, (whom he painted) and many listed as well. The group is quite immense actually. What was the shared belief? Reincarnation. I know this is a touchy topic but it’s one I dabbled in briefly a few times on here. I know there are many more modern famous folks possibly that share this as a belief but I wanted to depict the ones which connected Warrior in someway or even me. Warrior had that (yet again controversial) mindset within his values. Not sure if it ever was discussed among his circle of friends or family as many could refute but I know more about this with my own experiences that no one can deny. Just read those few pages inside of the first comic book he wrote and you’ll see for yourself. His many blogs years ago also confirmed those beliefs.

Did Warrior know those famous folks held that title of belief or did he just become immersed in their thinking and teachings for other reasons? That’s quite the question but I’m sure he knows more now on all this. We all will as well someday. I’m not preaching here as never was that a belief in my household growing up as you can bet it wasn’t part of Warrior’s upbringing either. Maybe it’s not for you, I respect that. I have to repeat this though. When first reading about his views in that comic book 30 years ago THIS year~~~ I never truly became weirded out. I just thought, 😮 WOW~~~ never knew that about him. I believe now there was a reason I did not overreact although I probably could have! Whatever your beliefs, bring acceptance in and maybe that can be your new word to start September…

P.S. Here’s to a wild end of blond, a spirit app, and reincarnating. I hope you enjoy and I’ll be here next week being wholehearted like I always am… ☺️🫶🏻🙏🏻🤍

May I have a word… (or 2… or more?) 🗣️💙

Yes, I realize it’s a loooong title but happy May readers! It’s moving month for us but not until later on and we might need a couple of extra days. My daughter’s birthday is also at the end of May so we shall see how the weeks go. Shortly, I will not have a teen any longer. My kids are growing as they all eventually do. 🥹 So grateful we found a home that suits us but it’s all the paperwork giving me headaches, ugh! 😩 I will have lived here a milestone around Memorial Day. It will be 25 years. How about that? It’s very emotional 🥲 leaving, but is time as I have had more opportunities to process than my family has. I’m super excited about our new place though and my husband wants a shed so some updates are coming…

Let’s talk photos a minute here. Remember me saying how quite possibly I would try and use the one with a young bodybuilder named Jim Hellwig meeting Arnold Schwarzenegger? Well, I do have that pic but a guy is right in the middle so kinda hard blurring him out. If he was on either side of those men, it would be easier. Don’t want a blurred blob in the center. Sure, I can leave him in the photo but nah~~~ not going to so you won’t see that pic on here. I’m not techy enough to take him out of the photo. My camera doesn’t have that option. ~~~ Next, what you WILL see is a super used photo of Warrior from his WCW days. It has circulated much over the years and I thought it was used before but nope, I had a black-and-white. It’s a little different too.

Moving on, (pun intended!) to other news. I was overwhelmed yet again it seems as one regular guy caller on the 80s wrestling podcast really wants ME to have an opportunity cohosting the show! WHAT, lil ol’ me??? What an honor as sometimes one of the hosts flies solo. I was flattered and the hosts loved the idea. We’ll see if it goes anywhere but I would if truly asked. My only criteria would be a topic I can actually contribute to and not just be a “female prop” in a way for ratings. This warrior girl needs to stand her ground and I will, if needed. They do need some women involved in the show and I’m educated enough without being biased. It sounds exciting!!! If I get that chance, I’ll keep you all posted.

Next, did any of you readers watch the Netflix documentary “ Hulk Hogan: Real American?” Well, read no further if not wanting any spoilers. OK, just one specific area and if not for it~~~ I would not be sharing today. Sure, I can go on and on but then it wouldn’t be my WARRIOR writings, correct? All right~~~ so here’s my rant. First off, it’s the usual “suspects” of interviewees on all these docs with perhaps a few additions mixed in. Did I have a pretty good feeling the Ultimate Warrior character would be trashed? Yep, I did only not quite in the way I expected. You see, it was Hulk’s ex Linda whose comments got to me. Fine, she didn’t like Warrior, but WHO CARES? I heard a rumor, (but it’s probably true because it came from Warrior) how Linda used to “offer” herself to the guys on the road away from their wives. With all the coke parties and such going on, I’m sure that happened. Warrior refused so that could’ve led to her reactions being what they were.

Answer me * THIS* fans? Do you think the general public of wrestling folks give a crap what the guys’s wives think or thought of their opponents? Yes, they do discuss it all with their spouses (or did,) including storylines, angles, matches, and all that so she could be entitled to her opinion or even side with her husband on his. Seriously though, I doubt the guys ever gave a F*CK what Hogan’s wife or any wife for that matter thought of them. It was obvious Linda was asked what she thought of Warrior and answered. Excuse my language, but I feel that way for ALL of them on this and not just Warrior of course. Do you agree with me? That part on episode 2 made me irate, I wanted to shake my own ropes!!! Despite what most usually say about the character of UW, he WAS a bigger draw than Hulk at one time as there’s proof on this. Sure, his personality became “difficult” for them but they act like Warrior did NOTHING for WWF ever and was a waste. How sad to still be so bitter and jealous after all these years. 🤬😠🙄

I will leave it at that as you won’t read any more “swearing” from me on this again. I honestly don’t want them making any more docs on Warrior either as I hope they don’t. It’s all for ratings and money anyway with some truths, but never all. I’m just grateful to know MORE that actually took place and not others twisted versions of what they were shown to be true.

Well, TRUE readers, that’s the news for now starting off this month of yet more busy times and days ahead. My son is almost done with year 4 at college! He will commute next year as he needs another term, but it will be nicer being a little closer to where both kids will be going to school. I hope you all are doing well as summer will arrive here soon enough! I will miss our pool but life “moves” forward as it will for us all in many ways. Enjoy this day warriors!

P.S. Also, am I forever grateful always Warrior never had a family while on the road. He would’ve left the business for sure. Wrestling was part of his life, not ALL of it like the other “lifers” or so it seemed… 🧡💛

“ Anger and Frustration!” 🤬🙄

Well, it’s October so I am slamming into this month! I DID find a Bluejay feather last Wednesday on my walk. It’s always super special finding one on writing days… 🥰 That pic of Warrior below is the EXACT image that came to me when deciding on a photo this week. I had to find it~~~ of course, but his expression there~ yep, totally fits today. Anger and frustration from some indeed just like he felt with many in his life at times. I could’ve used a promo from his feud with Hercules as he spoke those words, but that WCW pic entered my mind as I went with it.

Venting rant coming so get ready for battle warriors. I have to say some good stuff first. The 4️⃣th brings the 9️⃣th anniversary of this blog and the 7️⃣th brings the 8️⃣th anniversary of my book: “ Spirit and Belief.” Follow all that? I’m getting very close to that 10 year mark with these writings so it’s a great goal I hope to honor. Thank you to any readers of both but that’s a great “ segway” if you will into a reviewer of my book. What do I always say? Big UGH and SIGH… 😫😕 I’m being nice here though.

Does anyone recall back in June when I wrote about a woman who read my book with glowing reviews? I was so overwhelmed by her words and shared some in that post. I will be sharing a few others today only the opposite. I received another email from her recently commenting how I did not write her back when in fact, yes, I did naturally. I do to all. I had NO IDEA she was with a publishing company at all and she did not ever state that. Here are a few words she used about me possibly being “ frustrated” with my book not performing well. She told me maybe I felt like “ burning my book!” WHAT??? Who tells an author that and about a book of my experiences no less? She went on to ask if I felt “ hopeless and like a loser…” Well, that isn’t going to make me want to pursue business with anyone. We do need thick skins but her possible kidding around did not sit well with me at all. I did refute those horrible comments and say how I would never tell anyone to burn a book, EVER… Also, it wasn’t my “dream” to be a published author as it just happened. Hopefully, I will not hear back but I did treasure her 1st email as I’m grateful she saw the deeper meanings behind my messages in the book.

Here’s a few more anger and frustration moments. A family member of mine had asked me to help them out with something as a personal favor but I said no. I’m getting better at that lately warriors. It was not a dire need. I had my reasons which probably were not acceptable to this person, but I know better. I wanted to see if I would hear back as other texts were pretty frequent between us. I did but they seemed to be less common as time went on. My plan worked as I did not reach out to inquire again. Yes we do text but not in an overly friendly way as before. I specifically stated because of my lifestyle, I will not be taken advantage of as I truly believe that is what happened. There were some positive comments but I sense a shift. Maybe it’s for the better so time will tell… 🤷🏻‍♀️

I also had a misunderstanding with my former hairdresser, and I will own a little of this. I was so upset how she was let go but never proceeded to tell me right away. I found out from my son and then the salon. He texted to make an appointment with her and she told him. I just thought she would personally tell ME after 7 years, but she did not. Bad assumption on my part but I expected more with us becoming friends. She has been referenced on here before. Other texts followed as I did apologize but my new girl is pretty awesome. I would’ve had to find someone new after we move anyway so I guess that lightened the blow. Still some anger and frustration though. The former even bought my book. She expected me to follow her but never shared where she was working. She lost 3 clients with my daughter too. 🤦🏻‍♀️

This last one concerns a friend who is part of an FB intuitive group we both belong to. I started a monthly zoom session with our group on various spiritual topics of interest. I did not have her as a co-leader as we did work on some previous projects together in the past. She does have more experience in certain areas than me but I know what would happen. She would take over and not be sharing duties, all indirectly~~~ of course. I did tell her as I am becoming more assertive which I need to be. Being a leader is something I have done but not with this group and it’s a great opportunity for me. I still feel she is a little resentful how I thought of this idea when she had not but that’s on her. She has led other groups so now it’s my turn. I hope it does not lead to more anger and frustration on my end but I will be honest if need be. She has complimented me and I will just focus on the positive. I have allowed her to do a few other exercises with the group but not on a regular basis.

So, warriors there’s my rant or venting post for today. I can list others but will leave it at those. Sorry for all the drama but I had to get it all out. There hadn’t been anything for such a long while and then like a rocketship 🚀 blasting off, I had all those clotheslines in a row! UW fans will know what I mean there. Hopefully, my anger and frustration will cease for a bit and I won’t feel like the face of Warrior below. ⬇️ Until new stuff surfaces with more UGH’s but for now, this match is over. I have to remember to go with the FLOW and BREATHE , which is what I will leave you all with today. I’m thinking a good post next week with less SIGH’s… 😣

P.S. Reciprocity is a weakness with me but we all are works in progress. I am a warrior through and through. I bet you all are too!

P.P.S. You can find my book: “ Spirit and Belief” wherever you get your books from. It’s out there on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and all the others. It’s really my beginnings in all of this, but feel free to pick up your copy if you are so interested. I had to 🔌 plug it today because it did connect totally with this post. Enjoy readers! 💚📗✍🏻 Thank you!

Go with Me… 🤍

Yeah, I hope you go with me on these many topics I bring your way every week as I always want to inspire, educate, or just fill your time with humor although none of that last word as much today. THANK YOU for taking time to read or leave comments if you do. It is so truly appreciated by me that I cannot fit into words to fill these pages. I have a few ideas to explore this time around~~~ so hopefully, you will go with me…

I’m sure all of you are aware of AI or artificial intelligence by now. I wanted to bring that up because of what I see or hear through the media. No, that photo of Warrior in WCW below ⬇️ is not AI generated at all and for that, I am glad. Many photos out there nowadays are doctored, obviously by AI as I totally can tell~~~ even without anyone posting that. With everything else there are pros and cons, use versus abuse, and we shall see how this newer technology progresses. I’m grateful for those who truly use it for the good or here recently~~~ like bringing Warrior’s voice back for all of us fans to hear in HIS words. The images of him though depicted by AI in various ways? No, not so much. I get the idea behind it all, but I don’t like many versions created with AI usage. It can and is a great invention for much out there to help as there will always be new stuff in our culture. I’m just not a fan of it all, how about you? Are you going with me on this? 🤔

Let’s get into other areas. I’ll reference where my title came from today. Most loyal readers know me and my connection with music. So, last week I woke up with another “newer” type of song in my head. It’s an older song and some of the lyrics resonate, not all. It is : “ Come and Go with Me” by the Del Vikings from 1956!!! Such a cute little melody coming to me at night when many do. I was 🎶 singing parts of it all day as it stuck, most will. How does this happen? I can’t fully say but with lots of them~~~ I was not hearing the song in anyway prior to it coming to me. Sometimes yes, but more often than not, nope. That one? Well, how would I hear *THAT* unless it’s in a commercial or something? I know this happens to many folks but I also know they are not coincidences. Not on my journey anyway. They come and go with me for sure and it’s a huge sign that I always follow. Another sign~~~ I rarely have songs that old from the 50s… 😮

This last part today is a little deeper. We got a three 3️⃣ count again, yay! I do apologize in advance for being vague on certain points as in the past but some areas are left a little unexplored on here. Through YouTube recently, a different kind of video came my way after seeing a similar topic. Do you know how “they” sort of put vids on your feed as you scroll? I had been watching probably a Clickbait on someone 🤦🏻‍♀️ (ugh I know…) and then this other one popped up. It’s spiritually connected to the person I was watching. No, it was not Warrior if you were wondering. It became something I had heard of pertaining to the afterlife and despite a little hesitation on my part~~~ my curiosity was pressing play. Always having to be discerning or formulating my own opinion absolutely. I realize this isn’t for everyone like I say on here similar to a broken record. I do understand fellow readers, I truly DO…

What I found was a fascinating new channel which one could easily become addicted to. I was a little drained from some videos so realized protecting my energy needed to happen. Nothing creepy or haunted just to clarify… 🫨 It could be kooky stuff to some but for me~~~ I know it connects with my true purpose here. No, I’m not gifted in the way these folks are and many can be in authentic, BUT that is why homework is a must. I want to trust so doing research became part of this plan. There are pros and cons to this too, just like the AI mention of before. I hope you are with me as I come and go with these spiritual happenings that transpire through my writings. I’m going to try a new app recently downloaded once again as at first, I got frustrated and deleted my content.

We can all try to educate ourselves, which is another expression I frequently say just like Warrior did. No one will know if they don’t try, right? If it doesn’t work out, try another approach but just keep at it if it really resonates with you. I’m going to do just that to further my exploration in this area. I will be protected as some negativity could come my way but I always believe in the good and I’ve got a Warrior on my side every day! 🙏🏻💙💪🏻

Come to think of it, it’s actually a 4️⃣ count today after all. I almost forgot, how could I? My notes are small so I didn’t see it at first. The word DREAM was circled so here goes. Fans of Warrior would know he was quite the artist and had done many sketches or paintings over the years. 🎨 Most were famous people in history, literature, philosophy, and politics. They’re always stunning for me to see and what talent he truly had. In this dream~~~ I could see him (well just his hand…) ✍🏻 drawing George Washington. I have seen that one as Warrior put an 🇺🇸 on his face like the UW mask he wore! I remember showing it to my husband in the dream saying how Warrior painted this. I think I have told him what an artist he was but never showed him any of his work. Warrior painting it and then me having the painting. How did that happen??? *** Side note here, as I was proofing and editing this~~~ my ear 👂🏻 started ringing super LOUD… Another beautiful sign for sure. 🥰 * Anyhow, it was a brief dream but my husband loved seeing George. Our daughter is quite artistic herself but rarely does people. She could if she wanted to for sure. What a cute little dream it was of Warrior showing our 1st President to us. I loved it even in glimpses. Still him making his presence known as I continue to receive in my dreaming state and BEYOND… He comes and goes with me and it’s always ultimate…

Well, to summarize~~~ take AI anyway wish but always remember original photos are best. Sing some songs to brighten your mood or ask for some if that’s your thing. It’s fun but if you’re not into music, no worries. Try to learn something new, whatever that might be for you. It may be exactly what you need to grow even if you’re not into spirituality at all. Fans, look up Warrior’s art if you haven’t. It inspires me despite some subject matter one might not be familiar with. Just go with me and see what happens…

P.S. I’ll catch up with you all next week as September 🥳 ( my birthday month) begins! Oh, the next song I heard was: “ Take a Chance on Me” by ABBA. My girl loves them but I hadn’t heard that song lately… I’m doing my best to take this (new) chance. 🤞🏻

The Kindness of Kamala 🤼‍♀️💙🥹

HUGE shift from last week warriors so I am excited to bring you today’s post! The name Kamala above refers to the pro wrestler,( a.k.a. James Harris) and NOT our former VP here in the US~ Kamala Harris. Interestingly enough, though how they share those same names, ha! 😂 James Harris, and James Hellwig, (a.k.a. The Ultimate Warrior) BOTH also shared the name of James and last initial of H. Anyone remember my license plate post about “James H” years ago? ☺️I am sharing snippets of Harris’s book today.

“The Ugandan Giant” passed in 2020 but these statements I will detail are from his autobiography- “ Kamala Speaks” published in 2015. I printed out what was posted to the UW Facebook group by Leighton Baller so I thank him for the inspiration today whether he reads this or not. I had to laugh once printing it all out and looking at the papers. After cutting them down to size, I noticed there are 6 papers. 6~~~ which is my number once again as we near the anniversary of WMVI. I swear, that could not have happened any other way… I was so joyful to read these excerpts from Kamala’s book since it was much needed after the frustration of last week. It’s going to be very hard to quote without sharing it all but I will choose my favorites.

I have to say this though, my thirst for knowledge always inspires many writings so looking up James Harris, who is listed as “Kamala” was a must. I do find much about these former pro wrestlers lives truly fascinating, despite many hardships which came their way.

To all the naysayers of Ultimate Warrior, Warrior, or how he handled himself professionally, read these upcoming quotes! I do hope there are not haters reading, but it’s still worth a mention. Many perhaps are trolling just looking for attention. To all the loyal and true UW and W fans out there, please read or get your copy of Kamala’s book. I will link the FB post as a PS, but unsure if you would be able to find it unless a member of the group. I can always try though. Maybe Warrior and Kamala reunited up in “parts unknown”, and again would greet each other as James. 🙂

Kamala liked his run with UW for so many reasons and that is always wonderful to read or hear since it does seem a rarity. There are plenty of guys who can and do have nice memories of working with UW, but these stories from Kamala’s book are priceless to me. I had a difficult time copying and printing it out so needed to ask for help. You’d think it would be so simple to screenshot the text, send as an email, and then print since that’s what we do. I miss having the printing app! Unfortunately, it wasn’t that easy as it’s from a social site but really~~~ that shouldn’t matter. I still don’t understand what was told to me by my husband with those concerns but I’m thankful I found a way to keep these words. Possibly a glitch is because it’s copyrighted material from a book, but I have done that tons of times so it’s still a mystery as I am not a tech person.

Without further ado, here are some of my favorite quotes from “Kamala Speaks” concerning his thoughts on working with The Ultimate Warrior. We’ll start with this one: “ his persistence and his success didn’t at all make him a bad person.” READ THAT MULTIPLE TIMES!!!! Most know Warrior wasn’t a “partier”, but Kamala states how: “ He felt it was disrespectful to their own minds, their bodies, and also the safety of their opponents.” These are things I knew but it’s great to read how someone else totally agreed and was the same way out of the ring. Yes, it alienated Warrior but staying true to principles was Warrior’s game, not snorting “ booger sugar”, as Kamala puts it.

Warrior understood some of the wrestlers situations of not getting paid well and offered Kamala rides in his limo instead of splitting the cost with other guys. UW was a bigger star so had extra perks, but DID help out the boys unbeknownst to many perhaps. Kamala was very humbled by UW’s gesture as he seemed to shrug off the money as no big deal when guys were struggling. Another kind act (as my title can be reversed here) by the other James H occurred a number of times. Kamala writes: “ You see, appreciating my efforts to make him look good, he had picked up my tab for one of the best rooms the hotel had to offer.” Kamala helped out a young “ Blade Runner” named Rock ( aka- James Hellwig) back in the day with face paint so the favor was returned many years later and then some! What a cool story…

Kamala was happy UW got inducted into the WWE HOF in 2014 and was finally understood by those in the business. He even says: “ A lot of people didn’t understand Jim Hellwig, but I did. He respected people that stood up for what they believed in.” THANK YOU JAMES HARRIS ( aka- Kamala) for your kindness towards Warrior which will always be known, felt, and I hope treasured by others outside of reading today. He made a few jokes too, so I loved his humorous take. From one tribal- like warrior to another, they shared similarities, despite not sharing physicalities!

I would love to know more, but so glad to have these pieces of his book. What a life Kamala had as much as extremely tragic. He had a great pro wrestling career though with so many moments to remember. I’m grateful to know Kamala and Warrior were friends. Neither played “the game” of a party lifestyle, and that in turn bonded them. To both James H’s~~ take a limo anywhere you wanna go and stay in THE best hotels wherever you are!

P.S. Kindness given is kindness well received. “ Hello James.”

“ Hello James.”

~~~ This is how they greeted each other (:
