Random Ramblin's 43 - Reflection Post Halloween 2020

Reflection time!😎

So Halloween 2020 was an unusual one. This year is so abnormal. We in Wales are in lockdown once more but the firebreak national welsh lockdown is nearing it's end, unfortunately Covid is still roaming. Its been hard for sure but there's also some great things that have and are still happening.

I've done an amazing job and I'm proud of myself for my facepaint. Which even Finn himself liked my demon Bálor paint (1st pic) and the 2nd pic was Cobra Kai halloween inspo with a skeleton they are seen in.😊

OK so I've also got my fave band Sabaton autographs so that is freaking incredible and amazing!!!!🤗😁🤯🥳 I managed to learn The Black Parade more on piano and am trying to learn more and practice more.😄 I've been back gaming and enjoying it after what felt like ages of having a period of unenjoyment with games but all good and fun again. 🙂 I also had the newest Mha movie on steel book triple play and I been waiting ages for it to arrive and I finally have it!!!☺️

Been a while since I posted here but I felt now was a good time. 

I'm healing, I'm grieving and some days are harder than others. Life is hard and has more uncertainties than ever before. Never lose hope always keep ahold of it and try to laugh and have a person who can wrap their arms around you even from far away and help you get back up on your feet when life has you down. 

I'm an advocate for hope and I won't ever lose hope, I'll keep a tight hold on it.

Peace with you all, look after your minds, be mindful of all the information you take on and don't overload yourself or over work yourself.

Take it easy people!

Top 10 Things That: Should Happen In WWE 2018!

Hello and welcome back to my blog where today is the last day of November which means it is the last day of my wrestling themed month of top 10 lists. Sad times right? Well wipe those tears and drink a monster as i will tell you 10 things that should happen in wwe next year! 

(THIS WAS WRITTEN 5/11/17, SCOTT IS NO TIME TRAVELLER AND CANT SEE INTO THE FUTURE, HE WROTE THIS LIST OUT OF FUN!) 

10) James Ellsworth Breaks Free From Carmella - So this is a wild one i know but James Ellsworth is your average looking guy and people still love him. So imagine if he breaks free of Carmella steals her Money In The Bank briefcase only to show up on 205 Live cashing it in on the cruiserweight champion Enzo and winning the title? Mad enough to fail or mad enough to work?

9) Asuka Becomes Raw Womens Champion - The empress of tomorrow has not long joined raw and is still undefeated at this moment in time i am writing this but it would be epic if her streak continued and she picked up the raw womens championship title next year and dominates the roster until a draft occurs and she then works her way towards the SD Live womens title in 2019. 

8) Samoa Joe Becomes Intercontinental Champion - Face it Joe is a beast and Miz is going to be going off tv soon for a while to take care of his wife and newborn child so who best to take the title and have a good run with it dominating up and down all around? JOE JOE JOE JOE JOE JOE JOE!

7) Bobby Roode Becomes World Heavyweight Champion - He's a fast rising star in the WWE and how GLORIOUS would 2018 be with Bobby as champ? I tell how GLORIOUS, SO GLORIOUS!

6) Rock V HHH At Wrestlemania - This has been teased on and off for a good few years now that the two stepping foot inside the ring against one another one final time, it would be a great sight for sure and draw money, views, fans etc it would be great.

5) Styles Vs Nakamura WrestleMania - Yes this most teased and dreamt wwe match should happen at Mania its the grandest stage of them all for one of the biggest matches of all, fans would be ecstatic about it and it would draw money, views and it would not disappoint.

4) Charlotte Flair wins Smackdown Womens Championship - Charlotte since joining the SD live roster has not been as lively as she used to be on Raw. Back on Raw she was winning the title dropping it winning it and dropping it and winning it and so on a few times over. So it is about time she won the SD womens championship and had a run.

3) The Undertaker Returns But Not As The Deadman - So at RAW 25 next year we have been confirmed that Undertaker will be back but what if he makes his return to an image on screen saying "The Deadman may be dead but....." then american badass by Kid Rock kicks in with "I'M AN AMERICAN BADASS" and Taker comes out back in Biker gear cuts a promo saying. "When i was buried alive i had to channel the dead to get back to you all again but in doing that it seems to me like i lost my yard. Now before i can even think about taking my rest and taking my Harley out 24/7 for long runs across the country, i can not rest knowing that some punk ass disrespectful guys are running around here and i just want to let you know that there aint no rest for the wicked and i'm coming to put you all on notice."

2) Braun Strowman Most Eliminations In Royal Rumble & Win At Main Event Universal Title WrestleMania - Braun has had a hell of a 2017 and i think everyone was disappointed he lost to Lesner because Braun deserved that win and to send the part time fiend packing back to UFC. Braun should get the record for most eliminations in next Rumble and win the match and to get to main event wrestlemania and win the title i reckon. A run fit for a monster among men. 

1) Finn Balor Wins Universal Championship Again & Gets A Lengthy Run! - When Finn won the title in an epic bout with Seth Rollins it was amazing but was was sad was Finn being the first and having to drop the title due to an injury and since then i guess the wwe creative team just see's Finn as too small and feeble to ever put a big belt on him. He deserves his reign as champion and he will give us good matches so stop pussy footing about WWE and BOOK THIS!

Well this wraps up my wrestling themed month, so thanks for visiting my blog all month and i hope you continue to do so in future. 

Check back regularly for new lists! 

STAY SHINY!

NXT TAKEOVER CARDIFF!

I had the pleasure this week to attend Wwe’s Nxt Takeover Live Uk event in Cardiff, here are my thoughts. 

Alright first off how you doing?, I arrived at the motorpoint arena which i have spent a lot of time at over the past 5 years and i have seen a lot of bands and shows there. This is the second time i am here watching wrestling. Back in 2010 I was here watching TNA now 5 years later i am watching my first WWE live event. The queue to get in was not too big the doors opened 6:30pm and it was a straight forward walk and check in past the security, walk through the doors and there we are! The merch stand was pretty neat,as ever there was various merchandise available to purchase from the other stands inside the arena to. It was pretty jam packed there crowd wise, although it was not sold out as there was a few seats empty as i could see as i looked around. I joined my 3 friends found our seats sat down and awaited eagerly to be entertained.

We had decent seats and a good view of the night’s proceedings. The crowd were awesome! Very energetic aswell as fun and funny with all the different chants sounding off there was also dancing,clapping and the stamping of feet. I could feel the floor block that i was on completely shake with hundreds of us stamping our feet in support of some wrestlers. The wrestlers and crowd both gave each other a lot of energy. Although about 3 matches were not that good but even so the crowd was just hilarious and let’s just say not all chants were PG (Sorry Vince) haha but it was all in fun and games. The show ran for 3 hours and did have a 15 min break which was nice to stretch the ol’ legs a bit.

It was interesting having a more mature crowd, i mean WWE is seen as basically pg land and aimed towards children quite frankly,the crowd in attendance was mainly full of 20/30 year olds but you know it was still entertaining. I was also surprised there was some production value there with Apollo Crews entrance shooting up smoke and Bayley’s wacking waving inflatable arm tube men ascending from the ground to the ceiling that was something. The titantron also surprised me playing videos while we all waited for the show to begin. I must add how over Bayley is she, is like the face of Nxt honestly she is the biggest merch mover there! Quite a few of her merch went flying off the shelves and appearing then on almost every fan in the arena when she came out! It also was fun and hilarious serenading Bayley with the entire crowd singing for over 10mins! Nxt Cardiff had two mistakes with the titantron displaying “Tag us in your photos with the hashtag #NxtNewcastle” come on guys there is a big difference between welsh and geordie well not that american’s will know. Also one video package was playing and then the audio suddenly went off and so it was switched off but that is pretty much that. HHH appeared in a video package at the start and Regal was no where to be seen or heard as he had to be taken back to hospital to complete his neck surgery of course health comes first but would have been nice to have been told that rather than just wait for him to come out.

Fave Chants: “Gable,Gable,Gable,Gable,Gable,Jordan,Jordan,Jordan” “Heeey,hey Bayley,oh ah,i wanna know oh oh oh if you’d be my girl” “I love you Bayley and and if it’s quite alright,I need you Bayley to warm the lonely nights,I love you Bayley, trust in me when I say” “SEVEN!” “NXT,NXT,NXT,NXT!” 

Worse bit(s): For me i found the matches before the break to be a tad boring but that is it. 

Matches and results are as follow: Enzo & Cass beat Blake & Murphy,Bull Dempsey beat Tye Dillinger, Asuka beat Alexa Bliss,Apollo Crews beat Baron Corbin, Nia Jax beat Carmella, Dash Wilder & Scott Dawson beat Gable & Jordan,Bayley beat Emma and finally the main event Finn Balor beat Sami Zayn and Samoa Joe. 

7/10

If you are a wrestling fan i highly recommend you attend the next NXT UK TOUR. DON’T BE SAWFT!
