Baseball Milestones, WWE, TNA, AWA and more
What a weekend in milestones it was in baseball. First you had A-Rod getting to 500 Homeruns. I think he’ll eventually get to 800 to be honest with you. Then you had the homerun king Barry Bonds get 755. I don’t like Bonds attitude but I will give him his props. Don’t tell me steroids makes you hit homeruns because it doesn’t Any average Joe can hit a homerun if you hit the ball right. Bonds is just better then anyone else at doing it. Do I agree with steroid use? Hell No. I mean all sports, including pro wrestling is plagued by it. Last night I got to watch Tom Glavine throw a great game for his 300th win. What a feat. Glavine has always been a great pitcher. I agree with the experts, in that it will be a long time before anyone gets to 300 wins again.
Vince McMahon returns to Monday Night Raw tonight. After Benoits death he hasn’t been on T.V. but since the ratings suck he’s returning tonight. WWE’s ratings really suck right now so I am more interested in watching other things. I will also be thrilled when Triple H comes back. He is the leader of that lockerroom and I can’t wait for glorified return.
TNA is on its way to a 2 hour show starting this fall. Goodstuff. Andrew “Test” Martin made his debut this past Thursday and now Adam Pacman Jones has apparently signed as well…What the hell is the world coming to? Does he really think he can hang with the likes of Samoa Joe, Kurt Angle, Sting, Abyss, and others. Only few footballs players have been successful in pro wrestling…Brian Pillman, Ron Simmons, Paul Orndorff, The Rock, and Ernie Ladd. Good luck Pacman, you’re going to need it.

How about Tiger Woods shutting up Rory Sabbatinni yesterday. I am not much a Golf fan, but I am starting to learn the game so I can play with my stepdad. But anyways when I found out that Tiger and Rory were golfing together I had to sitdown and watch. Tiger dominated the final round yesterday. I guess thats what you get for dogging the greatest golfer who ever played the game. Good for you Tiger.
For the last two years I have been trying to bring pro wrestling back to Grand Rapids, Michigan. It use to be a hot bed for wrestling but a lot of people screwed the whole G.R. scene up. A promotion by the name of Hybrid Pro Wrestling said they would run shows in G.R. if I could find a suitable venue that they could pay for. If anyone knows of a venue let me know. In the meantime check out their site at http://www.hybridprowrestling.net
Well thats all from for now. I am sure I’ll have more this weekend. Until then take care and stay out of the heat. Peace
