New Blogger
What's up guys, my names Dan and I'll be contributing to the blog. Most of my stuff will be sports related, I will try and keep it biased even though I'm a huge Washington sports fan, but I'll be writing about anything that comes to mind. I'm a communications major hoping to one day work in radio and write on the side. I also do stand up comedy but I'm not good enough to make it into a career, so right now it's just a side job. So that was just some background stuff about me, you'll learn more when you read my post, thanks guys.

Wrestling History...Now.. and Then!
This blog post got me thinking ya know? After Raw last night it really hit me that Nitro was gone and still hasn't returned. Obviously we know why, but you just kinda hope it returns. Anyways so i saw randy Orton pull of a very good elevated RKO on Evan Bourne and it was amazing and i never thought they would have that happen, and it was interesting. You know though its weird when you watch old school footage it feels out of date and no updates coming and far from the reality of today. I may not like what 'goes on' this day and age a much more then most but i sure enjoy it to a certain degree. There are moments in time when the show (these days) outlasts many other situations that were failures in the 1990s.
So here i am viewing footage from Nitro July 14th, 1997 (perhaps their best year in terms of everything you could want in professional wrestling history). Soon as i saw Alex Wright i thought "Hey man" which is his famous quote, as well as the Nitro Girls debut you don't see that kinda entertainment these days...no raw girls, maybe that's a good thing. I See Eddie Guerrero may he rest in peace. So many differences in a period of decades and what not. I see images of the 'big show' as "the Giant", on a rampage and going crazy chokeslaming his opponents, anyways the idea that wrestling is what it is is that we have to wait till the future finds its home once again, when the future rises and the old vanishes. Either way, so much has changed and i am a firm believer that some day we'll regain composure and the era will become something 'amazing'. Lastly; as a wrestling fan you get what you pay for, and nothing's for sure. It's showtime folks! Thanks for listening.
