Montreal Canadiens: It Just Don’t Feel The Same
One of my earliest memories is asking my neighbourhood best friend Matthew, who was a couple years older than I, what this hockey thing he loved was. He told me about the game and what you play it to the best of his knowledge. He told me his favourite player was Brett Hull and he got to meet him due to his dads work at Midas but his favourite hockey team was the Toronto Maple Leafs.
After hearing this I went back home to ask my dad about hockey. My dad was the smartest person I knew. He told me all about hockey and filled in any blanks that Matthew didn’t. I then told my dad how Matthew cheered for the Toronto Maple Leafs. My dad chuckled and said, “In this house we cheer for the Montreal Canadiens.”

January 4 and 5 will be New Japan Pro Wrestling presenting Wrestle Kingdom 15 from the Tokyo Dome in Japan.

I shouldn’t have to write that sentence but I do because people act like this is something new for every wrestling show since March.Read More
Nobody wants to reflect on 2020
I have never felt more mentally exhausted in my life.
Starting this on January 1st, the 365th day of the year, and all I feel is worn down trying to reflect on 2020. Some of that is the rum I had last night, but that’s more my body feeling like the bean bag chair in a college dorm that not once has anyone ever considered cleaning. Okay not that gross. Let’s back up.Read More
Eddie Kingston: Truth is King of the Liars
You know, the professional wrestling business has a lie it likes to tell, among the many. That lie is that there’s an intelligent design for everything. The men and women they choose to be stars become the stars. Bookers hand pick their future champion and that’s just the way things work.
They also like to tell the lie of the brass ring. That you can be nothing and just reach for that brass ring of opportunity and become the next great superstar.
Both are lies.
But that’s what this business is about. Which lie can you make real?Read More
The slow Drip of Creativity when you have ADHD
I don’t want to write about pro wrestling.
It’s not that I don’t have ideas. I have plenty! I could probably write for a website again weekly about pro wrestling should I choose to.
(Which I’m not choosing to, which I’m going to get at.)Read More
