Okay, just a few thoughts after watching the game last night thru a local TV coverage (which I think was a downward spiral from their old norm of doing the commentary as it happens straight from

Say, the ticket really looked much better this time.
It was hot, wild, freaking awesome as it gets as May 23, 2015 became one of the most notable events in recent culture—specifically in the sports entertainment history as the Philippine Wrestling Revolution graced their first year of existence with their event titled Wrevolution X.

There’s nothing I can say here but… wow.

First Blood

Well, as per historical books, that leaves the Golden State Warriors drawing first blood to end their four-decade long title drought. And with them making a comeback from a 14-point deficit to take the first game of the NBA Championship series at their homecourt? That was a magical one.

So, it's that wonderful time of the year, as the old holiday jingle goes. East meets west once again, like Stephen Curry's date with LeBron James; or should we say... Golden State Warriors with a last dance — and a big one — with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

It was hot, but nobody expect to have a massive rainfall during the evening.


But did the weather stop the people from rocking out loud that night? I don't think so. I even thought for a second, these guys forgot—or rather, did not give a fuck—about the concluding episode of that one popular teleserye on ABS-CBN.

There's nothing really much for me to write. It's like I still have a drained brain for me after having a roller-coaster ride for the past seven days—that includes a good news and two hassled nights.

The Shield reuniting, some sets of rubber matches, and perhaps an impressive video package—all that despite WWE’s production design has been sucking at hell.

Ewan ko ba. Pero...

Original Pilipino Music is dead? Ginagago mo ba sarili mo? Niloloko mo ba kami?

Anong meron?

Bakit may West Valley Fault sa Philippine trends sa Twitter nitong nakaraang Martes at Miyerkules?

Well, marami kasi ang nabahala ukol sa isang balitang nilabas ng PHIVOLCS, na isang malaking lindol ang maaring maganap sa West Valley Fault.

Six matches: one night. And the Philippine pro wrestling is about to unfold anew—more often than those days where RJTV 29 used to have the likes of Joe Pogi to don the Pinoy Wrestling’s finest.
