The Rundown Slam: WWE Payback 2016

05/15/2016 11:30:42 AM

WWE

The post-WrestleMania was supposedly to be slated as its revenge tour; thus, setting the pay-per-view event Payback for such an insane conclusion. 

But lest we forgot, we are entering the new era, where the authority had been admonished by the rise of the Roman empire, and a new authoritarian (though good guy) has taken over at the expense of earning the respect of his father. (Still, throwing the damn angle of their feud away.)

And just when you thought Shane McMahon has been on the roll, his sister Stephanie gets back on him at Stamford and sent a message from his father Vincent Kennedy.

But before that, let's have a rundown of WWE's annual edition of Payback that was staged once again at Rosemont, Illinois.

Selfie Pa More (Kahit Bawal)!

05/09/2016 12:05:14 PM

Isa sa mga pangunahing alintuntunin ng Commission on Elections (COMELEC) ay ang diumano'y pagbawal sa pagkuha ng litrato ng sarili na may hawak na balota.

In short, bawal ang selfie. Ayos di ba? 

Pero, bakit may nangyaring ganito?

Eleksyon Na Naman! Eh Ano Ngayon?!

05/09/2016 05:49:29 AM

Sa wakas, matapos ang anim na taon, ito na naman ang pambansang holiday na pumapatak ng Lunes kada tatlong taon. Ang araw ng halalan, o elesyon.

Eleksyon na naman. Oh? Eh ano ngayon?!

Other (Should) Matters

05/06/2016 03:23:01 PM

Ang daming nagpapatayan sa mga kandidato nila sa pagkapangulo.

Teka, baka gusto niyo na rin naman isali sa inyong diskurso/duelo/word wrestling match/espadahan/basketbulahan/slaughter/spoken trash talk game ang mga diskurso sa ibang posisyon na tampok rin naman sa ating paboritong super bowl ng Philippine politics na kung tawagin ay 2016 general elections, ano po?

Negative Kuno?!

05/06/2016 10:17:19 AM

Wow. Talk about false negative advertisement. Sa malaliman at malapulitikang konteksto, parang stating the obvious na eh: black propaganda ito.

Ano ang tinutukoy ko? Yung advertisement nun na umeere sa tatlong media network kagabi na may kinalaman sa bata na pinupuntirya ang mga kilos ni Rodrigo Duterte.

Who's Who?: Rodrigo Duterte

05/05/2016 04:35:42 PM

Philippine Star

Rodrigo Duterte. The rock star of this year's elections full of corporate hipsters (and wannabe hipsters). Some hailed him a messiah. Others berate him for being a punisher. Donned by his supporters the "last hope" for the Philippines; even cited him as the only choice for the desperate thinking Filipinos.

How is that so? With the current situation of this country, it may not be that hard to see why.  

Who's Who?: Mar Roxas

Mar Roxas, Facebook, CNN Philippines

Manuel Roxas III may have rang a bell for being "Mr. Palengke." He has been one of the premier legislators of the country for two of the past three administrations.

Who's Who?: Jejomar Binay

05/04/2016 09:52:27 PM

Rappler

Jejomar Binay. Hated by many, also loved (allegedly) by many, too. And can you blame those who received paychecks and cakes?

Whos' Who?: Grace Poe

05/04/2016 08:01:56 PM

Asia One

Grace Poe. She may be the "purest" among this year's pool of presidential aspirants. She relies on her campaign that looked more emotional affectionate to the poor. Gobyernong May Puso as she always reiterates. 

Who's Who?: Miriam Defensor-Santiago

A few days left before the much awaited 2016 Presidential elections in the Philippines, and amidst calls for several white and black propaganda circulating the country's political scene, it made me feel like I am still undecided as fuck on who's deserving to receive my very much deserving ballot to become the upcoming President of this democratic republic.

Well, not totally. Of all the five hopefuls, I'm pretty sure some of us have already cast their choices since day 1 of the campaign period. Some may have been decided way earlier.

But anyway, who's who? Who's the deserving and on the other hand is undeserving?

Let's take at look at the first.
