A Few News I Guess: Downstait On Vince McMahon Disliking Dolph Ziggler's Theme Song "Perfection".

Yea. This was supposed to be a 5 News Week. 

But because of how slow the news was this week, I decided to bring you guys a few news I guess? 

Roman Reigns Reaction To The Rock's Comments On A Possible Match Between Each Other.


The tribal chief, Roman Reigns reacted to what The Rock said regarding a match between himself and Reigns (from give me sport): 

"It's so funny how a lot of people always say; 'well if you ever go back to WrestleMania, who would be the opponent that you would face?'

"It feels like the one that would make sense would be Roman, in terms of box office draw."

The universal champion himself kind of responded to that tweet.

    

The Roman vs Rock match has been rumoured for YEARS. I even talked about one of those rumours almost 2 years ago. 

At the time, I wasn't interested just because I'm not a fan of that iteration of the Roman Reigns character. 

However, this version of Roman Reigns vs The Great One? I'll take it. 

Unfortunately, I don't think it's happening because Dwayne Johnson got a gazillion projects he's working on. 

He's a BUSY dude but never say never as they say, right? 

John Cena Starring In A HBO Max Show "PEACEMAKER". 

Yes. Yes. Yes. 

So, James Gunn's new joint, Suicide Squad is coming out and we already got some news that a spinoff project (a series to be exact) is coming to HBO Max starring John Cena's character, Peacemaker. 

The streaming service that isn't on Roku, ordered 8 episodes. 

This should tell you how confident Warnermedia/DC is with the new Suicide Squad movie. It's about to be lit. 

After the news was out, the creator of the series, James Gunn said this:

 

What a God-damn legend. 

Downstait On Vince McMahon Disliking Dolph Ziggler's Theme Song "Perfection". 


And finally.  The lead singer of Downstait, Zachary Call sat down with Frank Mandolini of the Last Minute Wrestling Podcast. 

Because it was obviously a wrestling podcast, the 40-minute conversation was centred about pro wrestling. 

During the talk, Zachary brings up a story where the chairman of the board himself, Vince McMahon, didn't like the song that Downstait made for Dolph Ziggler: 

"We did the cover of "perfection". We cut "Perfection". They used that for a little bit and I guess Vince {McMahon} actually listened to the words for a little bit. 

He's like, "I don't like perfection" {the host Frank laughs}".

It is a 3-week old interview but I wanted to share a fantastic conversation Last Minute Wrestling Podcast had with Downstait and the band's connection with professional wrestling. 

If you somehow stumbled around this site and want to use the transcript, please credit this site and its original source.

What do you think about the news I just reported and follow me on the tweets @omartheplayaguy? Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE Wrestlemania 26 | A Coherent Review.

I've teased a mystery review on my Facebook page (which you can click here to follow us) and that mystery has now been unveiled. It's Wrestlemania 26. This review was delayed and was supposed to be up last Monday but at least is now up. Also, The first draft of this review was 7 pages long so strap in. By far, the longest review on this very website.  I thought it would be fitting to review a Wrestlemania from a decade back and how do I feel about it? It was a show that if you watched it, you're most likely going to have a good time. It was a mix of great things but terrible things at the same time as most shows.  The 26th edition of Wrestlemania took place in the University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona on March 28th, 2010.  The commentators were Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Honestly, Striker was pretty good and a far better colour commentator than Lawler was on this show (even today, Lawler is still bleh on commen...

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole.  On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up.  On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!?  Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit".  Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time.  So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

The 5 News Week: WWE Backstage. Cancelled Or Nah?, Liv Morgan's Re-Debut Was Supposed To Be Different!?

I'm back on my BS because it's The 5 News Week where I report on the 5 major or minor news of the week hence the name "T he 5 News Week".  Sorry for the week of absence. I took a week off of social media (except YouTube) due to the sadness I felt when reading those brave women and men tell their stories about the awful, terrible experiences they've had after their interactions with notable people in the industry.  It made me question my fandom and whether I should be in the industry (wrestling media-wise) knowing that they are asshats that will take an advantage on people for no reason other than more power and control.  This week proves that the business needs to wash all the old tropes that make it harder for people to express what's really going on especially when it pertains  to serious issues like sexual assault, racism, sexism etc.  I'm hoping that those stories will lead to a sudden change in every aspect of this profession and other ...
