Sorry for the late impressions on Mania night one. I was working late so I missed the Rhea/Becky and the 6 team ladder Tag match. Though I like how they finally split the unified tag titles apart. And giving R-Truth fka K-Kwik (yes, I've been watching wrestling THAT long) his Mania moment was 😙🤌🏽 I was making quick dinner during the Rey/Andrade vs Dom/Santos match, so I have nothing to say about that.

The Jay vs Jimmy match had some impact with the kicks, but something was missing. Though its not fair to compare but this match was definitely not Bret vs. Owen from Mania X. The six woman tag had Jade Cargill shining with her silver short hair 😍 And I felt that whip of Asuka by Bianca with the ponytail.

From what I saw, Night one was stolen by Sami vs Gunther and the main event of Cody/Seth vs Reigns and "The Final Boss" the Rock. First the IC Title match.

While I sensed that Sami was winning when the camera was panning his walk to the ring, this match had emotion. Definitely Sami's best match in WWE. The loss did nothing to bring down Gunther. On the contrary, now he can move up the world title tier of matches. And I'm curious to see how long it takes for Gable to turn heel against Sami.

As I mentioned above, I've watched wrestling for a long time. I've seen companies come and go but no company can put on a spectacle like WWE can. The four separate entrances leading into the main event, especially Seth's and the Rock's were amazing. And while the match wasn't tag team clinic, it had everything you wanted and more. The Rock silenced all the skeptics who wondered why he was main eventing Mania.

And Cody? We shall see if he rebounds from getting pinned to end a second consecutive night of Mania (Night 2 WM39 and Night 1 WM40) On to Night 2.

Time for the Main Event: Roman Reigns vs Kevin Owens for all the marbles. What role will Sami Zayn play in this match?

Its actually past my bedtime. Early work day tomorrow, so I will have to catch up with this match tomorrow.

Time for Mami Rhea Ripley to cement herself in the title shot for WrestleMania. Hopefully she lumps up The Glamazon for that spear earlier tonight.

Its time for the WWE Raw Women's Championship Match. I don’t see Bianca losing before Mania. But I think we see the full turn of Alexa to the dark side. Long live Uncle Howdy!!!

And now the Pitch Black match is next. Will this be a letdown to the crowd? Will the other four members of Bray's crew show up? Does this match catapult LA Knight to the next level? We shall see.

Congrats to the American Nightmare Cody Rhodes. The ending was not better than when Drew won the Rumble in 2022 but it delivered a great building up for Gunther. And the spot between Paul and Ricochet was 🔥🔥🔥🔥. Speaking of Paul, Jake Paul vs Seth Rollins at Mania is going to be insane. And thankfully Brock didn't dominate the Rumble. We've seen that already.

On to the next match.

The Eighth Wonder of the World André the Giant (André René Roussimoff) passed away on this day in 1993.

André was larger than life in the world of Professional Wrestling and pop culture. Undoubtedly he is one of the most popular pro wrestlers of all-time.

It was announced late yesterday that Jay Briscoe (real name Jamin Pugh) of the legendary tag team The Briscoe Brothers had passed away after being involved in a fatal car crash.

The 38-year old was a 20-year veteran in the Pro Wrestling business holding tag team titles with his brother Mark all over the world. They are currently the Ring of Honor tag team champions having defeated FTR in a brutal double dog collar match at ROH Final Battle.

May Jamin Rest in Peace. We send out condolences and thoughts to the Pugh family.

The cover to Amazing Spider-Man 28 has always been one of my favorite covers.

Drawn by Steve Ditko, the use of mostly dark shadows to highlight Molten Man and hide Spidey always fascinated me as a kid.

I originally saw it in the reprint from Marvel Tales 166 which flipped the original cover. Even now 30 years later, its a beautiful cover.

10 Video Games You Shouldn't Have Played At Launch

For years I refused to buy games at launch. I'm frugal so I like to wait for games to become available at a discount before getting them. But also the thought of playing a top priced game at launch and dealing with bugs and other technical issues is unappealing and unacceptable.

Awesome article on the man called Sting. Gove it a read.

I started watching the Chainsaw Man anime. Now I helped to sell a shit ton of the Manga when I worked at BN. But I am not familiar with the story at all. I have to say that the first episode has to be the most depressing first episode to an anime that I have ever seen. 😭

Hopefully it gets a little less dreary as it goes along. 😁
