During this pandemic, I have allowed myself very few pleasures, and one of them is the enjoyment of professional wrestling. And the squad that catches my attention more often than…

Idiot tries to stalk, kidnap pro wrestler
There’s a very fine line between professional wrestlers and their fans. When everyone stays in their lane, pro wrestlers can entertain the fans, and the fans can support the pro wrestlers in purchasing T-shirts and merchandise. But when the matches are over, the pro wrestlers go home. They change from their blue tights and wrestling…
Read MoreChris Jericho, have you lost your mind???
I personally think that professional wrestler Chris Jericho has been one of the most talented and charismatic professional wrestlers of the past 25 years. He’s phenomenal on the microphone, he has wrestling moves that are still strong, and he has wrestled five-star matches with everyone from Stone Cold Steve Austin to Kenny Omega. He’s currently…

Read MoreThe return of Dark Side of the Ring is tonight … can’t wait …
I am a long-time fan of professional wrestling. Even back in the days before Wrestlemanias, back when matches were taped at the old Agricultural Building in Allentown, Pa. and syndicated throughout the Northeast on the old WWWF circuit. So the return of the documentary series Dark Side of the Ring has me totally stoked. Dark…
Read MoreDamn it, you’re not Billie Kay …
I have been a fan of professional wrestling for many decades. Over the years, I’ve actually met and interviewed several top stars for magazine articles and the like – Bret Hart, Chris Jericho, Bruno Sammartino, Mick Foley and Ted DiBiase, to name but a few.

If you want to see what climate change and global warming is doing in our lifetime, look no further than to the wildfires that are destroying Australia right now. Make no mistake. There are hundreds of fires that are destroying Australia’s forests. The fires are slaughtering millions of native animals. Over one-third of the koala…
Read MoreThe best wrestler in the business might be this Orange Cassidy guy…
You know the standard build for a professional wrestler. They’re either 6’5″, 250 pounds, built like a tank, or they’re 5’10”, 195, with gymnastics and acrobatics that would make Cirque du Soleil envious. Oh yeah, and a wrestler might or might not wear a mask. That being said, there are also wrestlers who can “get…
Read MoreSometimes you need a pick-me-up from an Australian wrestling tag team
I definitely enjoy watching professional wrestling. It’s a fun diversion in life. And currently I’ve been hooked on the antics of a pair of wrestlers who call themselves the IIconics. These two wrestlers – Peyton Royce and Billie Kay – fought their way up from a small independent Australian wrestling company, through different American wrestling…
