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.

.@TheRock at #WrestleMania... Jey @WWEUsos at #WWEClash, my responsibility is putting our family’s name on top of the card and at the center of @WWE Universe. https://t.co/4uIOz0zHbb

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:

I’m doing #Peacemaker in the time always allotted between #TheSuicideSquad & #GotGVol3. Normally I would have been taking more of a break in this space but it’s Covid, I’m stuck at home, so I wrote a TV series. https://t.co/lARE63ypwI

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.

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: A Broserweight Road Trip To Portland, Britt Baker Addresses Her Attack On Yuka Sakazaki Last Week.

While this was a typical night for AEW, NXT, however, had a go-home show to deliver just days before the next anticipated Takeover show in Portland, Oregon. But, NXT's final show before the second Takeover of 2020 didn't bring it, unfortunately, in terms of quality as the 20th episode of AEW Dynamite was the better show this week even though AEW Dynamite is a hit or miss program. NXT Highlights. Roderick Strong vs Bronson Reed. Before the match, a pissed off Roderick Strong demanded an apology from the Velveteen Dream given that Dream put his wife and child's face on his trucks. By the way, Bronson Reed's theme song is killer and so is this match. A slow, technical, old-school type of match that wouldn't fit the big man on paper but the execution was a different story. The lights turned purple and Reed hits the suicide dive but he missed a Samoan splash that led to a knee strike from Strong and wins the match. Then,...

Top 3 BEST Distraction Finishes EVER!

Distraction endings to a wrestling match in WWE depend on one another if you think about it. It's like the peanut butter and jelly or the chicken and the basmati biryani rice or Dan Lambert and sexism. "Why top 3", you may ask? Because one, I'm different and two, well, I'm different, so be gone to the mofos that think it's shorter than Brock Lesnar's bout with Kofi Kingston. (WARNING: This piece is mostly sarcasm). Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus. Wrestlemania 28. I know this made your eyebrows raise as high as Rocky Maivia but think about this. The kiss from AJ Lee that led to a brogue kick from Sheamus, has in some way, led to the general audience seeing how Daniel Bryan should be WAY higher in the overall arc than where he was at that time. Also, this was also the year where Bryan showed off his comedic chops with his "NO" catchphrase and his tag team run with the big red conservative, Kane. If anything, this distraction finish was a great chara...

Roman Reigns Relinquishes The Universal Title Because He Has Leukemia.

I have a sad and unfortunate news to break. Two hours ago on RAW, Roman cut a great promo pretty much stating that he's been living with leukemia for over 11 years and the disease's return forced him to give up the universal championship. The segment ended with both shield members Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins gave a group hug to Roman and did the triple shield fist pump. Ever since that, fellow WWE superstars reacted to the news on Twitter and here are the tweets so far. An amazing human being, an incredible performer & a man I’m proud to be friends with. My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family. Get well soon, champ! #ThankYouRoman https://t.co/jL1Q5dVvzs — #WOKEN, yet #BROKEN, Matt Hardy (@MATTHARDYBRAND) October 23, 2018 My heart right now .... Prayers for @WWERomanReigns 😞🙏🏻 https://t.co/9sqk0KfFnP — Lexi Kaufman (@AlexaBliss_WWE) October 23, 2018 He’s our locker room leader. He IS the business. He’ll be back. You go...
