What is happening in AEW, NJPW, Stardom, CMLL, Rev Pro, and ROH is what professional wrestling should be. World-class competition provides opportunities to men and women all across the globe. Professional wrestling should never be restricted to one company. I also want to elevate the independent promotions who are providing local action in their communities. We should never diminish any athlete or the promotion they work for that wants to make the sport the best it can be.
There is truth in this meme. Essential truth in which all agree I think.
This first week of 2025 has been one of a new year and a new place to work. I moved from one building to another and so far it’s working out OK. Let’s hope for some good days ahead. Grace and peace to us all good people.
It’s New Year’s Eve. Please be safe while having fun. Enjoy the night. See you in 2025.
Today is the last day of 2024. It’s been a hell of a year for many reasons. I’m not sold on 2025 yet. Let’s finish the year and hope for the best.
Boxing Day, the traditionally British holiday recognized the day after Christmas, offers an extension of the festivities. People in countries like Canada, the U.K. and South Africa spend an extra day with friends, shopping or watching sports.
It’s origins come from a time during Queen Victoria’s reign when the rich used to box up gifts to give to the poor. Boxing Day was traditionally a day off for servants – a day when they received a special Christmas box from their masters. The servants would also go home on Boxing Day to give Christmas boxes to their families.
To all celebrating I hope it has been a good day of being with those you love and care about.
