Well, after he was Satanic he became Woman's choice for a bit so that evens out nicely.

Nashters of the Universe?!?

If that was the case, on top of fact that his reign didn't draw particularly well, no wonder Vince didn't run with him on top for too long. I just figured he was a colorful character with tassels and neon colored trunks and they (he?) wanted the title to reflect that, as well. ...And while I cannot corroborate that this is actually how the talking to went, but I hope Vince got on Warrior's case like so: "James Warrior Hellwig! That was the fourth bel...I mean championship this month! Do you understand that that is 5 to 10% of the gate each time you lose one of them! That's 5 to 10% more people we need to draw in order to make money or break even, which seems to be harder for you to do than I expected. Which is what I can say about taking good care of these damned expensive championships we keep making for you! Goddammit, pal, we'll start making the straps on the damn things brightly coloured so maybe they become less easy to lose sight of, you son of a bitch!"

In Pulp Fiction there was a conversation about what looks good doesn't necessarily mean it feels best to touch. I get complains that lying next to me on the couch is painful, because I feel too hard, so I understand exactly what your daughter is talking about! And as for Gordi, at 55 there's not a big crowd looking like you do or doing what you can do, so there is absolutely nothing to worry about, you're doing great!

Yes on moving JB v Omega, and wasn't Miro's debut also not too spectacular? So, I guess I wouldn't worry about Andrade just yet.

Yeah, not only rednecks, but apparently "cowboys" too, as his father attested to, later on in his career. But ok, maybe Joe somehow takes after his mother's side of the family, or something?

Good episode. Single tear on the cheek of Lumis was aces! Not much to comment, other than I'd like to see Dunne stand face to face with Kross again, so I could feasibly compare how I'd look next him? Not like Cole, I hope. He needs to bring his cardio game to the 5-way if he wants to survive. Oh, and Xia Li referencing her first match ever against Martinez was a nice touch. Also, calling that MSK assisted moonsault unpredictable, when they do it in every match, is the exact opposite of... The debuting cruiserweight opponent looked very impressive. Dibiase-Grimes story evolves and a big win for Atlas. I guess there was stuff to comment.

Not easily forgotten, but easily missed. During this time he spouted out stuff that would get him cancelled today and then some. But yeah, he was very cool in my mind at this time. Didn't last long, but that's the way I always think of him, no matter how "lame" he got.

Yup, and at least on Wrestling with Shadows, the "US -> Toilet bowl" quote was in a close vicinity to that one as well.

I bet he'd win!

Wait a minute, did Orton RKO Chandler and I somehow missed that?

While hearing about surgery and complications and the light at the end of the tunnel makes me worried, I'm glad things are getting better for you. If the complications are now dealt with and over, hopefully the running can keep moving towards what you were able to do previously. Good luck with the keto, once it's under way. I've only been stitched up a couple of times, so the idea of an actual surgery is utterly terrifying to me. However, as you said, seeing the right specialist when necessary IS imperative, as misdiagnosis runs frighteningly rampant these days, for whatever reason. Hope you keep feeling better! ...And inspired by your recent return to walking and running, I too went for a 45 min walk/run to the stairs that have become familiar recently. Ankles hurt, but you had surgery so I have no room to moan about it!

Thanks, man! I'm hoping to bench 300 lbs somewhere in the fall, but I'm guessing I'll have to be back around 190 in order to get it done. Also, I need to keep the 264 limit that I have to reach every time I bench and try to slowly creep it up to 280, or something, before that is likely to be achieved.

Ok, the week is done as far as workouts are concerned. Had to pull in a couple of 12-hour shifts at work and working my way through the last one as I'm writing this, so I was left with 4 workouts and one decent run. There will yard work in my future on Saturday, in the form of painting a fence, so not much chance of getting much more done. I did go down to 175 lbs, but I think a couple of pounds of fluids creeped back in. Bench is obviously suffering the most from the weight loss, but I did manage the 264 and 270 but only getting 2 good reps in most of the time. The fact that I have been squeezing in a short ab workout each time out for more than a year now seems to be paying off. Well, it would have really sucked if all that work would have amounted to no difference, so I will gladly settle for a slight positive change.

You've got my 2 cents!

I like trash movies more than I like good movies, but there is a huge distinction between good trash, bad trash and garbage!

Somebody needs to start up a new company and just build it around the people who have been released or have left on their own accord in the past 12 months (or less). Don't know if there will be a demand for it, but available talent sure is there! Also, PAC vs Buddy Murphy, RIGHT NOW!

All. Of. This.

Has anyone called him "Glass Joe" yet? Obviously, that's not even close to a "first boss", but still...

Have you checked your air bill recently? Just curious.

For CSC, yeah, as long as your joints and other parts go along with it, walking is really good way of keeping oneself active. With the added bonus of being outside and breathing clean air, if you are lucky enough to live in a place where clean air is still a thing. Past week has been a mixed bag indeed. Not sure if it was the wine or tge vaccination, but I didn't feel right until Thursday, but I was able to go for a run and to gym on Tuesday, doing a lighter version of what I usually do on Monday. Thursday was a good day, with a good run and a decent workout with more general upper body stuff and pretty much full bench workout on top of it. 264 being the actual highest weight. I did try both 275 and 280 but only got two partials each, so they don't count. 5 sets of 3 with 264, then 3 sets with 220, getting 10, 7 and 5. 22x132, then 10 and 5 more with 10 second rest-pause. Friday was supposed to be Trapbar but the spot was taken so I had to settle for a bunch of trapbar-like lifts with the two 70lb kettlebells and other assorted light stuff for upper body. I did cover for that and did the Trapbar on Sunday night, getting 4x4x451 and a bunch of shrugs afterwards. My weight is as of this afternoon at 177 and expecting to go under 175 sometime this week. Now I am relaxing the diet on the weekends, but still go pretty strict during the week. Getting pretty ripped over here. Also, I got a new pair of really confortable running shoes, albeit a bit too late, as my left ankle, calf or something in the general leg area is already giving me trouble and has slowed my running back down to jogging at max, which sucks.

Not Bray, I hope?

True, I always liked this belt a lot. Would have been cool if this design would have been picked up and used elsewhere later on.

That seems like a nice batch of supplements there, Gordi! The weather is cold and wet over here although it's getting green everywhere, finally!

Got a run in this morning, now waiting for my vaccination. And got it and I feel fine.
