WOS (WORLD OF SPORT) Wrestling ITV - Episode 1 Review 28/7/18

"This is the dawn of a new era! The jokers, clowns gone, but only the best, brightest and dedicated athletes get on this platform. WELCOME TO WOS WRESTLING!" 

The episode start's strong with the booming voice of WOS GM Stu (FKA: Wade Barrett) Barrett echoing throughout our tellies with a video package playing showing these great talents in slo-motion with the atmosphere building and shows the action, the talents warming up and showing the fans all hyped up. We are then welcomed by Alex Shane and So Cal Val and I must say it's so refreshing to have a female commentator on full time for a wrestling show and not have a team full of men, having grown up with the Attitude Era of then WWF to now in WWE, TNA, NJPW, ROH and so on it's so common to have full team of male commentators. 

Stu comes into the ring to cut a promo on the return of WOS and the glory of British wrestling today quite frankly and how the clowns, the idiots, the jokes are gone and only the best are to enter this prestigious ring but he is quickly cut off by WOS Heavyweight Champion fan favourite GRADO! Grado is considered to be the modern era Big Daddy of WOS. Stu is not happy with Grado smiling and prancing around as her enters the ring whilst fans cheer and chant for Grado. Stu reluctantly shakes Grado's hand. Grado looks at Stu and say's how he thinks that Stu is thinking how much of a joke Grado is and that he is not in good shape. Of course Grado admits he does not go to the gym he walks his dog twice a day hey sometimes even three and he does it with pride and he also wears the WOS title with pride. Stu definitely has it in for Grado as Stu declares that Grado is not what Stu see's as the future of WOS as he announces the first match. 

A 5 man elimination match, winner gets to face Grado in the main event for the title. Out comes Rampage, Sha Samuels, Crater, Justin Sysum and Adam Maxted and the match gets underway. Crator gets to work taking all of the men down forcing the rest to work together to take him down. Maxted was apparently on Love Island as we hear about it several times with some good wise cracks coming from Val like "Perhaps he should go back to that Island" and Crator get's disqualified by not letting go of Maxted while the ref counted and before swiftly making his way to the back Crator goes for all the others again inflicting pain and destruction in his wake. Sha and Rampage seem to be teaming up taking on Sysum but Sysum comes back taking both out with a double clothesline. Sysum goes to the corner and takes out Sha and Rampage again with a cross body. Sha and Rampage's team up goes awry following a failed double team attempt with Sysum quickly pinning and eliminating Sha. Rampage runs at Sysum but Sysum quick steps out of the way enabling Rampage's shoulder to hit the ring post as Maxted comes back and quickly tries to pin a distracted Sysum but fails. Maxted and Sysum show off each of their agility in the ring it's quite a spectacle. Sysum goes for a dive but of course it's too much high risk and Sysum does not get all of it as the ref counts to 10 Sysum gets in the ring but Rampage is pushed back into the ring by Sha and the ref is confused as Stu announces both men will be in the main event for the WOS title against Grado. Great start to the night with this match. 

Next up we have what's set to be an amazing bout with British Bulldog Junior taking on the aerial assassin Will Osprey. Now before we get into this match Will Osprey is a legend he is a living superhero with the things he can do in the ring simply phenomenal British talent. Action gets underway with Bulldog showing his strength but Osprey is showing his speed and his agility but Bulldog is also agile when he shows he can kip up. Bulldog is so strong the crowd chants one more time for a body slam and Bulldog gives us another and then get's Will in a vertical suplex for what seems like minutes. Bulldog plays dirty going for the legs of Osprey but Osprey does counter into a pin but fails but Osprey then rebounds off the ropes for a cheeky pele kick taking down Bulldog. Osprey goes for a springboard and hits it and then signals for the end by doing a some sort of spiral flip, I have no idea what that move is called but that was insane but he does not get the pin again. This match is so close it's so good! Crowd loves this match too. 

Osprey screams trying to put away Bulldog he is frustrated but he goes to kick Bulldog but gets countered but then runs up Bulldog trying the pele kick again but gets countered into a delayed German suplex but he still can't put Will away. Bulldog tries again but Osprey lands and kicks Bulldog in the head but as Osprey runs the ropes hoping to take out Bulldog, The British Bulldog counters with a nasty clothesline taking out just decimating Osprey and OSPREY KICKS OUT OH MY GOD! THIS IS AWESOME! SERIOUSLY OH MY GOD WHAT THE WORLD WAS THAT IT WAS SOME SORT OF INSIDE OUT STANDING FLIP! AMAZING PURE AMAZEMENT THIS MATCH IS! Alex Shane on commentary continues to call Osprey a wizard. Osprey goes for a flip off the ropes to Bulldog but Bulldog catches him and goes for a powerslam but Osprey escapes and delivers a dragon suplex to Bulldog. Will is showing strength but he is wincing every now and then from the pain delivered to his leg by Bulldog. Osprey goes from the corner hits a spinning kick on a downed Bulldog and goes for the pin 1, 2, WOAH IT WAS SO CLOSE! Osprey looking to finish by going up top, tried a 450 splash i think it was but Bulldog put's his legs up hitting Osprey and Bulldog has him this has to be it for Will and after that Will still kics out but now Bulldog hits a sit out power bomb and WILL STILL KICKS OUT! THIS IS AWESOME YES I AGREE CROWD! Bulldog takes Osprey up the top but Osprey is fighting back as Osprey escapes and hits a "cheeky fernandos kick"? Bulldog still on the ropes. Osprey jumps at Bulldog but Bulldog catches and jumps off the ropes! VICIOUS POWER SLAM AND THAT'S IT THAT IS THE END OF THIS MATCH! OMG THIS WAS A HELL OF A MATCH MY GOD! That was a hell of a story these men told in the ring a story of speed vs strength it was nonstop awesomeness. 

We go backstage to see Rhys and Sabian cutting a promo on how they are the best tag team in WOS and that they are going to win the tag title tournament and become the tag team champions. 

Tag team tournament kicks off now with, Rhys and Sabian vs Kirby and JOEEEEEEE HENDRYYYYYYYYYY! Joe is another fan favourite getting everyone to wave their hands side to side. Hendry and Sabian go at it first both showing off their technical wrestling abilities. Hendry tags Kirby in following a tag team move but Sabian gets Kirby in a headlock slowing him down as he continues to get the better of Kirby but Kirby mounts a quick comback and tags in Hendry again. Hendry gets stopped by Rhys outside of the ring as Rhys gets tagged in then. The double team is proving too much for Hendry he needs to tag in Kirby soon or this won't end well. Kirby is distracted by Sabian and Hendry accidentally bumps Kirby off the apron whilst the dastardly duo of Rhys and Sabian keep Hendry out of his corner and down on the mat. Hendry is being pumped up by the audience as he continues to kick out and not give up as Sabian and Rhys keep delivering with their tag team moves dominating the ring. Sabian goes for a dive but Joe moves out of the way and tries to tag Kirby in but Kirby leaves the ring saying Joe is a cry baby and that it's his match alone now but Hendry is fired up nonetheless and fights on 2v1 and Hendry does a fallaway slam to both men wow most impressive. Hendry shows off his wrestling skills once more getting Rhys in an Ankle lock but Sabian dropkicks hendry enabling the duo of Rhys and Sabian to team up and successfully pin Hendry. Not a bad match. Sabian and Rhys are a most impressive team. 

MAIN EVENT TIME! Triple Threat for the WOS title. Rampage V Sysum V Grado. The action kicks off with Rampage taking on Grado. Sysum also takes out Rampage out of the ring infact as Grado starts the infamous cult classic wrestling chant EASY! EASY! EASY! Haha a chant not heard in a long time. Grado bumps into Sysum trying to fend him off with high kicks as Sysum and Grado then shakes hands but Grado pulls Sysum in for a headlock but Sysum escapes the hold as Grado shoulder barges into Sysum and Sysum does not move as Sysum tries it on Grado, Grado moves out of the way causing Sysum to fall flat on his face, which was pretty funny. Grado and Sysum play fun and games with easy chants galore and even Grado applauding Sysum landing a backflip. Here comes Rampage to break up the fun and games....and he gets set out of the ring again by these two. Sysum slides through Grado's legs and then is pulled out of the ring by Rampage and is attacked by him there. Grado pulls down his straps goes outside on the apron runs and HE JUMPED OFF THE APRON ONTO BOTH MEN TAKING THEM OUT! Grado gets Rampage in the ring tries to pin but to no avail. Rampage elbows Grado down and then get's Grado into a suplex hitting that, he pins but oh a 2 count. Rampage hits a side suplex on Grado pins but again a 2 count. Sysum is coming back  and shoulder dives into Rampage getting him down as Sysum legs it to Rampage GRADO COMES OUT OF NOWHERE WITH A WEE KICK and now Rampage tries a piledriver but fails and GRADO COMES OUTTA NOWHERE WITH A CUTTER! GRADO TRIES TO PIN RAMPAGE BUT SYSUM BREAKS IT UP! Sysum goes up top 450 to Grado thats it surely, Rampage throws Sysum out of the ring as Rampage sets Grado up for an implant ddt and oh no that's it! NEW CHAMPION RAMPAGE! 

Next week we have a ladder match and the tag tournament continues but that's not all as next week they crown the first WOS WOMENS CHAMPION!

Wow well what a show, sorry but the second match was the best of the night but hey great show certainly made an impact!

Meeting "The King Of The Mountain" WWE Hall Of Famer - Jeff Jarrett In Cardiff!

That's J-E-Double F - J-A-Double R-E-Double T and he was in C-A-R-D-I-Double F last night! With special thanks to Hooked On Events I managed to win tickets from and they are an amazing friendly crew along with the WWE & TNA HOF'ER himself. Jeff took to the stage with a room full of wrestling fans standing in ovation applauding this legend of the ring and he was really humble and down to earth and really respectful, a top guy, really lovely person and the crowd were respectful and laid back and Double J enjoyed us. I told Jeff how much I respect him and how I have followed his career for years and how much of a fan I was of him and I wished him all the best and thanked him for everything really nice guy, I can't express that enough.

Jeff talked about his career his debut in WWF to his years in WCW, TNA and to now GFW and to his Hall Of Fame induction and even talking about Chyna, Owen Hart, Vince Russo, Dixie Carter and many more. It was a very insightful and interesting evening indeed. However as advertised there was supposed to have been a Q&A but unfortunately the event ran too late and we was unable to ask questions but hey I had a great night i'm sure many of those attended did aswell. 

Lovely to finally meet my friend Gareth Lee after all these years being friends on facebook and running a Facebook wrestling group together since 2010 called Let's Talk Wrestling! Was also lovely to see Gavin Hicks down there aswell good to catch up. Great night with James Evans as ever my good friend, thank you for joining me and for a great night mate. Never been to Bierkeller before but it's a stunning place I have walked passed the place many times in Cardiff and I am definitely going there again. 

Mad this all came from a simple "share this post and win" on Facebook which I ended up winning tickets to. I also entered a raffle and won a signed pop up banner from Jeff himself. I really wanted a guitar but oh well it's been a quality night with friends old and new :D

Thanks For Reading and stopping by, I really appreciate it :)

A Future We'll Never Know (original song lyrics)

Look up above and tell me what you see,

Flying cars, hover trains, space shuttle travel,

Where the transport of four wheeled drive and rails are history,

Gone are those days, gone are the tree's,

Artificial intelligence, holographic honey bee's, mankind's past is said to never unravel,

It's still all about war war war,

Making money from the poor poor poor,

What more can man ask for?,

Is this really our future?,

Is this the way we wanted it to go?,

So much for the world, in a future we'll never know.

Look to the sky and see the stars reflect into an android's eyes,

Anarchy no longer in play, chaos has been purged and wiped from the Earth,

Swipe the screen to the left and to the right,

Read up and recap the events of the modern era, 

But remember to subscribe to be notified,

We're all becoming chimera, 

When it's all about war war war,

And when they're taking money from the poor poor poor, 

What more can we do?,

When our grandfathers ask us, "where's the flying cars?" 

And we have to pause and take look around ourselves to see,

Garbage, death, blood, graffiti, burnt forestry,

Is this the way we want it to be? 

Is this how it should go?

So much for the world, in a future we'll never know. 

It's a future we'll never know,

Robots, lazers, flying machines, computer chips in our brains,

Do we really want to be more machine than man?,

Is this truly our race's master plan,

We'll be stronger but more unstable as we reign, 

Up on top of the food chain,

Is this how it should go?,

In a future we'll never know,

Do you want to go, to a future we'll never know?,

Because this is how it'll go, in a future we'll never know,

So much for the world, in a future we'll never know,

In a future we'll never know,

In a future, 

A future,

We'll never know.

Written by myself 

4am 25/7/18

I was pondering to myself about the fact this to many is not the future people imagined and that in the future what if it's one i won't know? It's something else i guess where i left my thoughts bleed out as ever when i write anything i guess but when it comes to lyrics it goes 50/50 sometimes i can hear the music that accompanies the lyrics and sometimes i cannot it's quite something i cant fathom at times. 

Action Crazy Violent (Rap/Metal original song lyrics)

Take that bat and smash my head in NOW!

It's time to smash,

it's time to break,

it's time to lay motherfuckers in the grave, 

time to break jaws and stab hearts,

this bitch got a bat and she's gonna start swinging,

hit me with your best shot, stop the insults and take action,

take that bat and smash my head in NOW!,

When we were young we were best friends,

Laughing, playing, running round the bend,

We'd never thought this would ever end,

We became so close and i took the risk,

I put all your favourite tracks on disc,

Hoping our future would become an obelisk, 

It's time to smash, time to break,

lay me down to the motherfucking grave,

throw those words that stab like knives,

throw those plates around hoping no one survives,

put that bat up and hit me with your best shot,

take action, get crazy, go violent,

And smash my head in NOW! 

You said we were an item, 

exclusive til death do us part,

feeding me lies, I was oblivious to it all,

thinking it all to be sunshine and rainbows, happiness ever after,

I thought the world of you, you cheated me,

took advantage of my heart, tore apart my soul,

let me alone, to take care of our home,

defenceless against those stones,

that you toss against my bones,

i'm so broken, will you just end it for me now

Smash, break, 

lay me down to sleep,

i'm fucking done with all this shit,

i'm broken, beat, scarred, 

don't give a fuck,

take a look at the mess you've made,

throw me more shade,

take me down to the grave,

pick up your bat and take your best shot,

take action, get violent, go crazy baby,

go ahead and smash my head in NOW!

Inspired by Machine Head. 

Wrote this based upon a domestic relationship which was a flower it bloomed so well at first but the winter, the cold death tore it apart and things got shinning crazy. 

Late Night Ramblin's Vol 3 - The Question Of Life And The Pondering Of Death

The universe is massive, it's ever expanding, the planet is home to 7 billion people and Earth is 4.5 billion years old. It's crazy to think about it aint it?

How did this all happen? How did we get here? How did we become alive? What will happen when we die? I don't want to die. What can i do to not have that happen? What happens? 

God I can't tell you how much of an over thinker i am. Thinking about death and questioning the point of life if we are to be gone it puts me in a state of panic. 

Writing about it right here, right now makes my body feel so cold, like the blood has vanished from my body, i feel so cold, i'm in a state of panic, my thoughts are too much. I can't handle it at times i need a distraction to take my mind away from it. I feel like i can't breathe. It's too much to handle to think about to contemplate. 

Does anyone else get like this?

I need help i know i do. 

It's hard to get off my mind, it scares me, it's scaring me now. I thought talking about it well writing about it here would be easier for me but it still hits me hard. I can't tell you how hard it hits me, like i said it brings me down and just makes me upset and just scared. 

I do believe in the power of reincarnation but i want my memories i want to live, i want life. I don't want to be switched off, the fear is too much to handle. 

What do i do? 

What can i do about this?

Distract my mind?

Make a better life to get a better mind?

I have no clue. 

It's 5am let's try to sleep and hope i'm fine in the morning and get this shit out of my head. Thanks for popping in and reading. 

NHS appreciation post!

So the NHS has turned 70 it's crazy to think it's so young.

It's also crazy the amount of abuse the service gets and it's staff and that some government officials want to bring an end to the NHS.

If it wasn't for the NHS giving us free healthcare here in the UK our country would be so bad. We don't want to get into having to pay for hospital visits or stays, sorry but this might sound selfish of me to say but I don't think it's right to have to pay to get medical attention. I think it's a human right to get it for no payment options or taking out insurance to make sure we'll be ok if we do get hurt or ill. If we had to pay for our health services I think we in the UK would be in so much debt it's scary and let's hope it never happens.

In case you didn't know, I was born with a broken leg and for years up until I was 12, I was in and out of the hospital getting my leg re-broken and surgically repaired to go straight instead of inwards and I had physio to walk and I had to get specially made to fit shoes for my feet.

Top it off as a kid I also suffered from epilepsy so yeah how fun is it to black out, shake and lose consciousness and all my bodily functions while trying to breath and what have you, super fun am I right? Nope but you know that it's no fun or no laughing matter.

I once worked for the NHS as apart of the clerical team in Aberdare for a few months, it was apart of an apprenticeship scheme I did for TTC. Great team to work with I hope they are all doing well. I have family who also work in the NHS so they do some tremendous work also. Just felt like adding this in.

Anyway, the point is that without the love and support from my perants and the NHS and all the South Wales specialists I have seen and had help from for all of these years it would not have been possible for me to walk or to even live without the NHS.

I can't thank all the past and present staff of the NHS enough for their amazing work. To think 24/7 for over 70 years they've been hard at it saving so many lives it's amazing just phenomenal.

Thank You NHS!
