Cup cup cup cup

This is kind of random.

I've actually found out WWE's youtube channel is like, available to me. No longer are the videos blocked so I can actually keep tabs on what's happening.

And still I didn't. Not much anyway. 
I heard the Shield broke up, with Rollins turning on the others. Very nice. With all the reports coming out of the office riding the Roman Reigns Train, it kind of left the fate of the other two guys up in the air.

While Rollins isn't a massively good talker, I can imagine him pulling off the asshole persona. It doesn't take much when you side with Triple H anyway, so I'm pretty sure he'll be doing ok in the near future. He'll probably end up doing a program with Batista when that fucker returns. Eh ... if it keeps Rollins on tv, I'll endure it. 

Reigns is obviously pencilled in for a run with the big boys, before being unceremoniously buried by John Cena later this year. I can live with that.

Ambrose on the other hand was a bit of a toss up, but for what I've seen, it looks like Dean Ambrose sort of died and Jon Moxley was reborn. Having seen some of his indy stuff, I'm pretty sure it will make for some interesting character developments. 

Just in bullet points:
- psychopath
- CZW mainstay (not usually in someone's favour)
- generally batshit attitude.

Me gusta mucho. 

Hoping to see more of the Wyatt family still. WWE has the reputation of breaking tag teams/factions up too early and thereby fucking over its tag division, but I'm gamblin on a nice run for them. Eventually, all three could be big players ... though Bray seems to have to be happy getting buried by Cena. 

Love Brodie Lee, or Luke Harper, so I'm hoping his size and agility will land him a nice spot on the roster. That big boot of his takes faces off. I want to see it happen properly in high def.

ALLLLLSSSSOOOOO

Being European, I can't really ignore the World Cup Football (yes, not soccer. Fuck all y'all). We've been doing pretty well so far. We made it through to the knockout round where we'll be defeating the USA after a piss-poor match that undeservedly swings in our favour at the very end. I'm positive it will happen since that's how we won our last two games.

Otherwise, it's kind of funny seeing all of the perceived top teams getting eliminated so early on. Especially Spain, since I've felt they weren't supposed to win last time. I'm still convinced Iniesta was offside on that goal. Either way, Holland got 'em good.

I can't really say who's gonna win. Germany has a fair shake I presume. I don't see Belgium winning, because realisically we can't keep skirting on lucky shots like this. Unless they actually start to play football instead of accidentally getting the ball and running with it, I'll value our chances slightly higher. Until then, my money is (figuratively) on Holland/Germany or Brazil. 

Ahem, any topics you want me to rant about are always welcome in the comments or on the tweeter. Pick a good ranting subject. So no quantum physics, k?

  1. I lost myself wandering WWE's Youtube and as a matter of fact was done in a matter of minutes. Not much to say about the product as I've been busy figuring out what I was doing with my life (and as far as it goes, posting a comment here seems like a highlight of the day). I see Daniel Bryan's surgery went a little south and now he's in all matter of fairness losing his momentum, matter of time before they strip him of gold and give Cena a good ol' title run. Meh.

    I don't see how the product can lose anymore my interest than it already has, but the WWE has always found its way in the ups and downs.

    As football world cup goes, I need to express the urge of puking all over your blog...I can't stomach the hype that goes with it and I try to stay as much football-free as I can, only exceptions being when a hottie talks about it (Summer wardrobes, you demons) or when a free beer is handed to me. Otherwise, you instantly lose me. And since I don't see you with neither a free beer nor a hottie, I consider the matter closed.

    As for the rant topic you so kindly ask me to find, I think a Top ten favourite films would sound rad. Given you actually go to the movies from time to time...I could use some hints as to which films I should download next...legally, that is to say, if anyone ever asks.

  2. I actually don't go to the movie theater anymore. My knees and those seats tend to disagree after a while and I'm practically limping out. As for that top ten, I might have to ponder that for a while. I usually don't watch much beyond the blockbuster movies featuring superheroes.

    As for the football (I have to), I actually had a supermodel more or less converse with me right before I wrote this entry (I retweeted it, because highlight of my sad fucking life). Sara Sampaio, if you're interested to learn more. I highly recommend you do.

    Also, Belgium actually doing remotely well in a major tournament after not attending one for 12 years sort of awakened a national pride I didn't know I have. Government formation troubles brought it back down again, luckily.

    And Bryan is already stripped of the title, with Cena pencilled in to win, so no surprise there really.
