Growing up as a little boy I really had no role model, so I was pretty much a loner. I use to pretend to be a jet and fly around the house. Like literally stretch out my arms and went about my way. One day my grandfather bought me a VHS tapes, Incase there are any youngsters reading this a VHS is what a DVD/blue-ray is except in a tape form. As I was saying my Grandfather bought me a VHS tape and the name of it was called "The adventures of Superman". I was hook right away, It was just fascinating to watch. Every time I heard those famous lines, " it's a bird , it's a plane, it's Superman!" , I would pretend I was really him. As I got older I would go on to understand that Superman was just more than a comic book character. He was an iconic comic book character. In the comics Superman was portrayed to be a God. People looked up to him. He gave people hope to the people of metropolis. He was a Savior , the way we Serve God is the way people served Superman. He even gaved his own life , when Doomsday killed him. Then of course he resurrected and came back to life just like Jesus did. I grew up in the church, so I was fed how important God was to us christain people. Then I realized the similarly​, between the two. I was amazed like is the devil trying to trick us? You can look at it that way. I was always aware between real life and fantasy. However I always looked up to Superman because of what he stood for. He stood for justice, hope and love. Til this day Superman remains my favorite comic book character. It's funny how a comic book character can relate to real life meaning. As much as I looked up to Superman I knew in my heart who was the real-life superhero and his name is God. As I let you guys go, I just want you to know something, and that is Superman was my hero.

I don't know about you guys but for me the state of professional Wrestling is not the same as it once was. Everything​ is so predictable , and with social media there is no such thing as surprises anymore. Granted we have a Indian decent wrestler (jinder mahal) win the title but that was kinda not a surprise. We all know that was part of reaching out to the Indian market. What ever happened to kayfabe? Now we see pictures of guys like Braun strowman and Roman Reigns hanging out at a restaurant. Like that was a huge no no during the 80's and Early​ 90's . Ever since the curtain call in Madison square garden happened​, that's when kayfabe slowly died. One other problem I have is with the wrestlers themselves. It's like they are lazy , not all but some , like Titus O'Neal for example he is a good talent, and he sometimes have good spots but sometimes he be forcing it and he is not a good seller. Same goes for Apollo Cruz, this may be the reason why WWE have these two working together. Basically what I'm trying to say is that we had Wrestlers before, like Austin and Rock they bust there behinds every single match! They never had any boring spots, they keep us glued to the television , unlike today if we have to go to the bathroom then we will just go to the bathroom, back then we will hold it til commercial break, Wrestling is just not the same like it once was. One thing that stresses me out completely is the storylines. It's like whoever is responsible for writing has no creativity whatsoever. What, they pay these writers how much to write a dam show. As a life-long Wrestling fan I just get frustrated, that's all. Does anyone else agree with me? What can change? As a Wrestling fan I will watch but I had times where I just stopped watching wrestling for a year or two. I'm not at that point but I wouldn't mind doing it again! I like what WWE is doing as of lately but I still think they have cheesy storylines and are ruining some career's​ but in closing I just wish we as Wrestling fans get more of unpredictable then predictable. That will make me one happy Wrestling fan.

Don't you ever let anyone get in your way of fufiling your dream. World, today I expressed to someone that I thought I can consider a friend , my dream of writing for either for a Wrestling website or comic book/Entertainment website and his response was, "well good luck on that, that's a hard but to crack" like he pretty much said I have no chance at writing. Like how does he know that? Does he know what is in my mind? Absolutely not! I was a little furious but I brushed it off. I know I have what it takes to make it in this field. I haven't been so sure about anything in my life before. I'm hungry and if he going to be saying things like that , than that is my motivation. Ladies and gents don't you never let anyone try to discourage , always be encouraged , if you have potential in something , all you have to do is practice and pay your dues and eventually you will be great at whatever you are pursuing. Just don't give up, this is a little personal and I apologized but I am a writer and I speak my mind and no one can't tell me otherwise , now as I close just always know when you do something , anything do it as you are great at it end of story.

When it comes to comic book movies ,DC is known for making more darker films. Like for instance the dark Knight films​ for example almost every film are so serious. Like not so much humor, unlike Marvel films they know how to blend the two very well. In the movie Wonder women , Warner Brothers did something different in this film, something they hadn't did in the past. Which caught everyone in the theater by surprise, which had a individual in the theater that I was in said "we ain't see that one coming" this film was in unpredictable. Which is pretty rare for a DC film. This film takes you inside the history of wonder woman. How she became the glamazon that we all know. This film was well made, the telling was on point. I am really shock that this film was actually good. I didn't expect this movie to be a must see. If you don't have any plans for this weekend. I highly recommend you to watch Wonder woman. I will give this film a 5 star rating, and the music went well with the film. I can't say anything negative about this film at all!, It also has a Marvel feel to it which is different , I'm happy that Warner Brothers went a different route with this film.

Baywatch Review This film wasn't that great but seemed like it was trying to be horrible on purpose, it didn't grab my attention , the comedy was mediocre at best, but Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron were great together, I like how he called Zac Efrons character a different name Everytime. The other best part of the movie was the woman . Alexandra daddario did an exceptional job as playing the role of summer. Her scenes with Zac Efron were pretty good , they had great chemistry together. Now I'm not really a big fan of Baywatch. I'm one the ones that watched it for the babes and this movie gave you that. This movie had two males go mouth to mouth, not say who not trying to play (spolier) also this movie had a pennis scene, ladies and gents, yes! , You heard that right. It was like a five minute scene and it kinda made me and everyone in the theater uncomfortable. One I liked from this movie was the music, I thought they did a good job a that. This movie I would have to give a 5.5 I felt like they tried to hard. I know I came in expecting this movie to at least be a 8 out of 10 but I was quite disappointed. What do you expect tho? It's Baywatch a show that was about saving people from drowning and the hot babes, and they tried making this film to something that it wasn't. If you are thinking of seeing it , I would say good luck! , I would not see this in theaters again. Would I rent it or watch it on Netflix , yes! Why not? It's not a horrible movie it's just not movie to waste $13 dollars on at a theater

When you think about comic books, you think about the likes of Superman, Batman and Spiderman etc. You think about superheroes, but what are superheroes without super-villains? I mean superheroes need someone to go to battle with, am I right? Good versus evil is one of the main concepts when it comes to the world of comic books. Batman vs the joker, Spiderman vs the Green Goblin and Superman vs Lex Luther. All are iconic comic book rivalries. Just to name a few. Villians are what makes any story interesting not just comic books but also in movies. Since I'm talking comic books, I'll stay in topic. One of the most iconic villians in the history of comic books is the joker, there's also dr.doom , Magneto and the Green Goblin. These are just a few villians, there's so many underrated villans that get forgotten about and I'm here to talk about one particular. When you say the name Slade Wilson to someone. They might question you like; " you mean Wade Wilson" I've seen this for myself and you would have to explain that Slade Wilson is an actual comic book character. For those who don't know, Wade Wilson (Deadpool) was made to tease the Slade Wilson (Deathstroke) character. Now for young people that don't know any better. Deathstroke is one of the biggest super-villains of all time but yet he is underrated. Deathstroke is DC's formidable mercenaries. He is known for going to to toe with Batman multiple times. He also had epic battles with the likes of Superman and teen Titans. I'm pretty sure if you watched the show Arrow, you seen him along side Oliver Queen (Green Arrow) at one point he teamed up with the Green Arrow himself, before turning on him and eventually starting another rivalry​. Deathstroke​ Is a super-villain that gets looked over. There's just so many super-villains in the world of comic books. That sometimes the best ones get overlooked. I'm here to remind everyone about Slade Wilson, the man we all know as Deathstroke.

Can you imagine if Batman was in the Marvel Universe? The possibilities that can occur? Not to mention the villians he will go up against and we can finally see that dream match-up between Ironman and Billionaire vs billionaire , oh what a showdown that will be. As comic book fans we can only dream of such thing. I think it's fair enough to say the famous saying "never say never" anything is possible so don't give your hopes up comic book fans.

When the pizza is ready!

When I was a little boy, I say around the age of 7 my mother took me to her grandparents house, and as my mom would go to the kitchen to talk with my great grandma. My great-grandfather would always be watching TV in the living room. Now on this particular day he was watching wrestling. I found it fascinating, instantly I was hooked but at that time I didn’t have cable so my best bet to watch wrestling was this show called Saturday night shotgun. It was a one hour show that came on at midnight. I looked forward for Saturday nights. My favorite wrestler at that time was Bret Hart. I just thought he was cool but I remember one time I was watching it and all of a sudden the lights went out. All of a sudden I see this scary dude with long hair with purple gloves, he looked like he just came out from the grave. At seven years old I was terrified, but strangely I took a liking to him.

This seven foot tall monster went by the name The Undertaker. He would come out with paul bearer a creepy looking fella with an annoying voice but he complimented The Undertaker. Eventually my fear for the man went away and I looked forward to seeing him on TV. Finally we when I was 10 my mom got cable so my eyes was stuck on the Monday night wars but once 8 o'clock came by that meant bye bye WCW and hello Raw is War. One of my favorite moments in Wrestling is when the undertaker threw mankind off the top of the cell in their classic hell in the cell match. I think it’s safe to say that most Wrestling fans remember that iconic moment! I would never forget that, I still get Goosebumps thinking about that match.

One of my favorite feuds that he had was with Stone Cold Steve Austin, they always put good quality matches together. The chemistry that these two had in the ring was just absurd. Then in 1999 he started a faction called the ministry of darkness. A more Demonic character then he went away for a little while and came back with this biker gimmick, he called himself the American Badass. He pulled it off. In my opinion he was one of the most underrated heels of all time because he was recognized as a Babyface for most of his career. When heel undertaker did his thing he really was scary.

Undertaker, in my opinion is one of the greatest wrestlers​of all-time; Some might say he’s just the greatest of all-time. If you go 21-0 in 21 tries at wrestlmania , there’s no questioning his greatness. Another thing about The Undertaker is he was very unselfish, very professional and didn’t mind putting someone over, as long it made sense. He didn’t have to put Brock Lesnar or Roman Reigns over but he did. If wrestlmania 33 was indeed his last match. I would have to say what away to go out. He would always live in our childhood memories and most importantly he will always be that Deadman walking.

Love him or hate him Jinder Mahal real name ( Yuvraj "Raj" Singh Dhesi) is your new WWE Champion. Dhesi payed his dues to get where he is currently in the biggest wrestling promotion in the world the WWE, now how did he get here you might ask? Allow me to elaborate, Dhesi (jinder mahal) wasn't given the keys to the drivers seat just like that oh no , He earned it. Jinder started his journey in 2002. Training at (PMW) Premier Martial arts Wrestling, then later on he wrestled for Prairie Wrestling Alliance (PWA) eventually winning the PWA championship. Jinder also competed Great North Wrestling (GNW) then finally he made his way to the WWE. In early 2010 Jinder signed a developmental contact with WWE with it's developmental​ brand formally known as FCW , which is now known around the globe as NXT. Jinder made his way to the main Roster on April 29, 2011. He spent most of his first run with the WWE as a jobber, no one took him serious and to make things worse they had him join a stable known as 3mb (3 man band). A group portyayed to be the rejects of Wrestling, I mean at one point Brock Lesnar dismantled all three of them for crying out loud!. On June 12, 2014 Jinder Mahal was released from his WWE contract. Alot of men would of just took that as a career ending moment, but not jinder. He went straight to work , He wrestled at independent promotions​, Jinder even did a event in India with The Great Khali. Oh did I forget to mention that Jinder is from Indian decent. Any other talent would of been satisfied with just making it back to the WWE but not jinder he desperately​ wanted back. The phrase: scartching and crawling your way to the top is overly use sometimes, but not for jinder mahal. He made his return in July of 2016. Joining forces with his former 3mb sidekick, and eventually going solo as a singles competitor. He began to be a jobber​ again but he never gaved up. He bust his ass off night after night. Knowing that he was going to lose. In early 2017 he formed a short lived alliance with rusev which was pretty entertaining if you ask me. Then things took a little turn for him after wrestlmania. Jinder was part of a number one contender over the top battle Royal in which the winner was promised a shot at the WWE title. Obviously Jinder was victorious. The WWE universe was not happy about this push that Jinder was getting. The way I see it is WWE fans moan and groan too much! , It wasn't that long ago when fans voice Thier opinions that other talents should get a push. Well it's finally happening and everyone is freaking out. Why?, Is it because he is Indian? I don't know. I think he's a hell of a talent. You can argue his mic skills can improve but he has the look and charisma. Also he is a tremendous heel, In my opinion he's the best heel and Wrestling because he gets real heat and now that he is the new WWE Champion, he gets even more heat. Jinder deserves​ everything that has happened to him these past four weeks. He earned his way to be in the position he is, so rather you love or hate him it's his time to shine and If you don't like it then deal with it.

DC vs Marvel? Do you ever think about all the different types of superheroes that we grew up watching? Such as Superman, Batman, spider-Man,The hulk, and Ironman just to name a few. Since the the release of X-MEN in 2000, Marvel has released several movies earning the right to be called the head honchos of the comic book world. Marvel has even broken box office records and with the emerging of Guardians of the Galaxy and the Netflix tv series (Daredevil) (Luke Cage) , and (iron fist) and many more movies to come , proving that Marvel is who we thought they we're and they are not slowing down anytime soon!. When you think of comic books, you think about the Spider-Mans and Hulk's of the world but you also think of the man dressed in a bat suit fighting crime and a alien who wears a blue suit with a red cape. That's right folks I'm talking about Batman and Superman but these two iconic superheroes are not from the Marvel universe, they are from the DC universe. While Marvel has been busy making movie after movie and breaking records. DC comics weren't making too much noise at all. They only had Batman as their Franchise player, sure they had video games and cartoon series to keep them revlervant but Marvel was handling DC. With the exception of the (2006) film Superman Returns , which by the way wasn't a success. Batman kept DC alive with the (2005) film Bathroom Begins and the record breaking Dark knight which shattered box office records in 2008. Batman single handedly gave DC life in the 2000's because Marvel was taking it to DC. Coming into 2010, DC had to do something because Marvel clearly dominated the first decade of the 2000's, and that it did in 2012 the Dark Knight rises was released and the following year Man of steel landed in the big screen. DC has recently been owning prime time tv with shows like Arrow, the flash, Gotham and Supergirl and you can add Legends of Tomorrow to the list. DC is finally making some noise and challenging Marvel for that top spot. Which leads me to the Question, will we ever see a DC vs Marvel crossover? I honestly don't know but I feel that we the fans deserve it. Can you imagine seeing superheroes such as Batman, Superman , the flash and wonder woman in the same live action film with characters​ like Thor, wolverine, Spiderman and Captain America? The answer is yes but how would they pull it off?, Which characters​ will be utilized? You can go on and on, not to mention the DC and Marvel multiverses. It can be confusing which makes me wonder if that's part of the reason why no director hasn't took it on yet. It takes time to make a movie like this but the problem with us as comic book fans, we want this now but we also know that you can't rush art. With all that said I believe we will see it one day and when it happens we will go insane as like we won the championship of the world. A film like this can be historical given with what Marvel and DC have given the comic book world over the years, this can be special and I hope I'm still around when it finally comes in full circle.
