Bret Hart’s “Who Are You to Doubt El Dandy?” Promo

As great as WWE legend Bret “The Hitman” Hart was in the ring, few pro-wrestling aficionados would say that he was stellar on the mic. For the most part, The Hitman cut dull promos that weren’t particularly interesting, inspiring, or memorable. Sure, he had his moments as the anti-American Canadian babyface during the Attitude Era, … Continue reading “Bret Hart’s “Who Are You to Doubt El Dandy?” Promo”

After a subpar WrestleMania XXIX, WWE roared back with WrestleMania XXX. It was an important show on several levels. Obviously 30 is a nice, round number and WWE often pulls out all the stops for “anniversary” shows. Last year, smarks blasted WWE for its fan-unfriendly booking. This year, the company (mostly) listened. On a corporate … Continue reading “Random Thoughts on WWE WrestleMania XXX”

Here’s the trailer for the upcoming Need For Speed movie starring Aaron Paul. The vibe I’m getting is…not so good. Need For Speed looks like a dumber version of Fast & Furious. The charming thing with the Fast & Furious franchise is that it didn’t take itself too seriously; there was a certain amount of cleverness in its stupidity. … Continue reading “Need For Speed Movie Trailer”

Random Thoughts on The Newsroom Season 2, Episode 5

This week’s episode of The Newsroom used a pair of emotionally heavy real-world events as the backdrop — Trayvon Martin’s murder and Tyler Clementi’s suicide.

Someone in the vaping community asked for a coffee mug with my face on it. (No, really.) I listen to the people, like my role model, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
