Warning: there will be a some censored adult language references in one way or another, allow me to make things crystal fudgin' clear, at no point have I ever condoned fans or anyone getting familiar with any wrestler especially a female wrestler, but I am in my 40's and I keep talking about this topic and quite frankly I am getting  fudged off, so yes absolutely this will be triggering to most actually who am I kidding 99.9% of you considering I have been receiving abuse for the past 24 hours referencing at minimum I am a sex offender.

This whole topic is getting boring: look I have lost count how many times I have talked about this topic, and yet no one is remotely learning... if you choose to use adult content sites to make money you are essentially prostitutes [because I have had some backlash on this topic let me clarify; you are giving sexual release for the transaction of money so by definition that would be the modern version of being a virtual prostitute/prostitute.] So by doing so you are lowering your standard of respect or/and expectation to make money which is completely your choice... But and this is the big BUT don't cry victim when something happens which goes against something you didn't sign up for, meaning there are strange things called responsibility and/or accountability; and to me it seems like these two words are of foreign concept, because on one hand you are saying okay; give me lots of money and you can at minimum masturbate over my material, that is perfectly in fine, just when you see me don't get handy or too familiar and guess what, you can control things on the Internet, but when you make yourself a sexual product for money which people pay for then unfortunately some people will either see you as this precious person, which the people coming to the defence of this wrestler are, or you're like me that goes... and? What do you want me to do about it? You put yourself in that position with making lots of money off your appearance which means you open yourself to this kind of behaviour right or wrong it doesn't matter in this point, the fact is she opens herself to this possibility... as the younger generation say today it is; what it is or you get these individuals that think they own you which firstly allow me to make this crystal fudgin' clear again... you don't own these wrestlers regardless of what I think of their occupation of adult content creating, but then again I will say it again you open yourself to people paying this money to think they can do whatever they like which for the final time is wrong, but depending on the person's mindset is depending where they are coming from, so I pathetically if they think it is a business transaction regardless of how warped their respective is.

The uncomfortable truth/reality is; I am just simply talking about the pros and cons of these choices that are made... as I get consistently reminded you see what I find most interesting is... adult content creating has been normalised, pronouns have been normalised, being disabled or less than perfect has not been normalised; which basically means; we find all of this acceptable to be outraged when these boundaries are crossed, but when a real life situation occurs not of in my case my doing such as being disabled in a wheelchair for life; I get abused in the real world or/and online; I have to keep my head down a fair amount of time around women because if I was to sit up normally I would be directly looking at their chest or they would feel uncomfortable, so I would be banned from a location or comfortably reminded the only way I will ever have sex again is if I pay for it, I mean don't you see we have emboldened broadly speaking the haves and the have-nots, including but not limited to these life choices and people like myself are suffering because of it, you see I have been accused many times over the past month of projecting my situation onto others, which is not the case however I am holding those that choose any form of sexual occupation accountable and/or responsible for normalising this behaviour absolutely [I mean if we are being completely honest with one another; if I was dating a woman and she said look I am not particularly proud of this; but during the pandemic I was going through some heavy manure; I was trying to look after my kids, a family member got Covid-19 were they ended up in hospital, I was struggling on all fronts especially financially; so yes I did some adult content; such as solo stuff and got my boobies out and I still get my boobies out for Breast Cancer Awareness fund raising so any money I make goes to that. I would be okay but other than that; is that it? Meaning absolutely going through a global pandemic and just getting for fair enough and you can underline at solo stuff so all is good; I'm saying all of this; so that I understand that back then it was a very difficult situation: but other than that and yes we have to save the boobies; but we cool;] but I digress; because I will tell you from many years of experience; there is nothing quite like someone being emboldened telling you/me in this case essentially; it is the whole package of you that needs to go and they would in most cases be fully aware I can't change my disability or way of life much of it comes with responsibilities and then on top of that every human aspect being taken away from you; be it emotionally, mentally, physically until we get older with or without mental health issues on top realising that for 90% of the stuff you are being tarnished with you haven't actually done, but because you have a penis that is acceptable for you to be tarnished in that manner and a 10% you did wrong you were either running out of steam, tired or you were just put in a corner left to rot or you came out swinging or hell you were just growing up and experiencing life, but the second and I mean literally the second I stand up for myself a little or you are honest when you say broadly speaking women contributed to making its way; they don't want to know or/and call it abuse and play the victim.

So in summary; be outraged for those female wrestlers that don't do adult content, because they have chosen a respectable way of making a living, but stop with all of this outrage for a female wrestler that does any form of adult content, by all means call it out, but stop treating the female wrestlers that don't do adult content with those that do, because in itself that is disrespectful, because I can guarantee you and I will leave it on this question of sorts; I can guarantee you if this fan $300/£234 to slap her posterior we wouldn't be having this topic again.

The Sky Cube Ring: Part 3: Storyline, Action, Art and Character [Character developments;] we rejoin the match, as much later on we have one of these opponents being unceremoniously thrown off this wrestling ring construction for down; which as you would have come to expect from this TV series has absolutely captured this sequence of events excellently, but consequently due to the their actions there is a definite concern over the health and well-being of Meat.

Can everyone just calm the fudge down seriously?: Because straight of the bat, whomever is pushing the narrative/concept of this was a squash match per se, I am going to presume you actually either no Jack manure about wrestling or/and you did it just for rage bait or/and clicks and likes.

Because if you are pushing that narrative... of basically MJF didn't get any attack in, which is a lie and you know it, he took the opportunity to let's just say play a game of buckaroo with Allin's nuts to begin with, which this is a crucial for people to understand, because it's like the changes that narrative from a complete squash to somewhat justifiable storytelling, character development and story arc down the line.

The justifiable storyline telling comes into effect when MJF does what he does; which opens the door to MJF using his usual tactics and for a rare occasion; it backfires, because he opened the door Allin used that open door to his advantage consequently it finally shows that Allin swung to the fences and did what it took to become the top guy in AEW and the story arc will be; at some point down the line MJF will come back and go; I honestly thought you didn't have it in you to do whatever it took to get your hands on the main championship around this place including but not limited to cheating and hitting me with everything but the kitchen sink... Do you know what I kind of respect that, but how has it been looking in a mirror and not seeing yourself looking back at you but my reflection looking back at you, because you have essentially became me, doing anything it took to have possession of that championship weighs heavy on anyone's soul.

But now we are in this situation I am very much aware of the pitfalls that AEW are now facing if they are not careful, if they don't give Allin the time or/and the tools to having a productive championship reign with variety of feuds and then lose the championship before say October or November 2026 then the negatively surrounding this current situation [when this content was first dictated will be hopefully not, but somewhat reasonable depending on where we are at that time,] so in short they better back Allin now we are here And on a quick side note it is worth mentioning that I have heard some people complaining that AEW doesn't try anyone new in the main event picture, so they are dammed if they do and dammed if they don't, get off their back will leave or better yet go and touch some grass will you.

Those specifically in NXT are going to really hate my final point; you see many years ago NXT, they did something similar with Tommaso Ciampa vs.  Karrion Kross [with Scarlett:] Singles Match at Pay-Per-View Rewind of: NXT TakeOver: In Your House 07/06/2020: Match 5: where they wanted to put Kross over in a big way so they constructed this match slot to do just that, but it wasn't a complete squash; it was more like a whatever on how limited it was from Ciampa on this night it just wasn't enough; consequently giving some protection to Ciampa even though he lost and even though it is a completely different situation this match for the AEW World Championship it has clearly protected MJF to a certain extent from the loss here, I mean if you want to witness a squash; squash match  Brock Lesnar [with Paul Heyman] vs. WWE Champion Kofi Kingston on SmackDown Friday 04/10/2019 where Kingston lost his championship in roughly 7 seconds that is a squash match; in conclusion it is all about how these things are constructed mind you if a AEW screw this up I will be far from happy.

Warning: there will be censored adult language references to in this content

The problem that either the WWE or/and TKO has is: really simple for the amount of money they are asking for which is easily running into hundreds of thousands of dollars or pounds or any other coin equivalent; the booking or the cards are not strong enough to justify that kind of expenditure for an average person; so let's have a quick look at the matches I wouldn't pay to watch as things stand.

Night 1:

1: The Usos': Jey & Jimmy Uso & LA Knight vs. the WWE World Tag Champions The Vision's: Logan Paul & Austin Theory & IShowSpeed [with Paul Heyman;] Six-Man Tag Team Match:

Reason/Reasons: this is just a classic case of getting names on the card and it tells me that they think very little of these championships because at the very least they could have put a stipulation in place where if the champions lose their next defence is against The Usos or if they win their next defence will be just against Knight on his own, you know spice things up a little and it gives the illusion that either outcome would be interesting.

2: Liv Morgan vs. Champ Stephanie Vaquer; Singles Match for the WWE Women's World Championship:

Reason/Reasons: if this was just the match with the championship on the line where winning or losing clean then I would be interested, but I just see interference being a major factor and if so they may as well have just put it on their TV programming.

3: Jacob Fatu vs. Drew McIntyre; Unsanctioned Match:

Reason/Reasons: this just smells of; we have just remembered WrestleMania is just a short time away and what are we going to do with these two wrestlers? I know let's put them in a feud together... great idea. Well I am not buying it for some reason, I just think it is going to be a complete mess and quite possibly derail the momentum of this first night, because with this stipulation used, it usually indicates some kind of violence or/and blood at some point.

4: Randy Orton [with Pat McAfee] vs. Champ Cody Rhodes; Singles Match for the Undisputed WWE Championship; If Orton loses, McAfee will leave the professional wrestling business for good:

Reason/Reasons: yes absolutely I wasn't particularly on board with this main event to begin with, but even I have to say the original WWE feud idea going off Orton and Rhodes history is at the very least solid, compare to now with TKO's involvement and let's just say drastic creative directional changes, this is now looking like a complete manure show.

Night 2:

5: Rhea Ripley vs. Champ Jade Cargill; Singles Match for the WWE Women's Championship:

Reason/Reasons: every long-term wrestling fan knows this expression your wrestling division regardless of gender is only as strong as your champion and for the younger generations this does not mean physically strong; this means consistent on-screen [which absolutely we can blame the WWE for this for possibly a good chunk of responsibility,] but some of it has to fall on Cargill as the holding champion, but hypothetically if she was coming in with say 8 or more defences in this reign, I would say this was potentially a marquee match.

6: "The Demon" Finn Bálor vs. Dominik Mysterio; Singles Match:

Reason/Reasons: simply put the faction/stable known as The Judgement Day have well and truly past their sell by date and I find this all incredibly boring as fudge and what really is the cherry on top of this manure cake is I can smell the desperation including "The Demon" I would be more happy to see Papa Shango or/and The Bogeyman, in fact that is a great idea: why didn't they set up a lumberjack/monster style match: where on one either side of the ring we have; Shango, Bogeyman, Abyss or/and Kane [or if Kane can't make it, I am sure his brother The Undertaker/Undertaker/Taker can make it] to stop interference and obviously if one or both of these competitors should be on the outside help them back in, but "The Demon" on its own with a very ordinary stipulation of Singles Match is hardly going to cut the mustard as things stand at the level of WrestleMania.

7: Trick Williams vs. Champ Sami Zayn; Singles Match for the WWE Men's United States Championship: even though I'm not attending this year's Mania in the slightest and before anyone asks that will probably never happen. But hypothetically if I was going I would be extremely urinated off that we almost had Williams vs Champ Carmelo Hayes for this championship and I would have said thank you very much WWE, but as things stand we have this manure instead and how can I but this nicely... I don't want to see this manure, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say probably most people don't want to see this match, they can always make it a triple threat for this championship at Mania, but for some strange reason I don't see them giving their fan base something that they like.

So yet again as things stand: there is 7 out of 13 matches which I wouldn't pay to watch, I mean the closer we are getting to this weekend are closer I am now thinking How are they going to screw up the ending of Roman Reigns vs. Champ CM Punk; Singles Match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship? Because I have no faith anymore in this modern day WWE hierarchy with or without TKO, come on this should be a case of one section of the fan base is going to be happy with who goes over here and one isn't end of story. But my years of experience just tells me the WWE are going to screw/troll their fan base and give them the middle finger, I have suggested DarkState from NXT might be the ones to do it, I just have this feeling that no one is going to leave this event happy with the ending of this main event.

I am not deliberately taking a dump on this main event, I honestly hope it goes one way or the other for all concerned, but something in my stomach and head tells me we as wrestling fans are just going to get the Montréal Screw Job, in a nutshell because I have just filled out a previous piece of content; I can now really see this main event having some kind of dusty finish just for the rematch to take place in Riyadh Saudi Arabia where they can make lots more money at Mania 43/2027, I can really see it coming obviously I hope I am wrong for the sake of the fans heading to this year's Mania, because if I was going and I am at least somewhere in the right ballpark I would be urinated off for sure, but only time will tell and I mean this sincerely I hope I am wrong genuinely; you see this is not a WWE vs. AEW thing this is a wrestling fan thing where we are all getting pretty much squeezed out of the WWE it financially or their content or any of the burden that comes with being associated with the WWE, they have well and truly forgotten without the generations of fans the WWF/WWE wouldn't still be standing and consequently thriving and I'm going to leave this content on it really sad reminder yet also incredibly predictable I can guarantee you that in Riyadh Saudi Arabia their Mania cards are going to be much more stronger than these two; let's put it this way hypothetically speaking so of course I could be wrong on some level; if they have 14 matches over the weekend I can guarantee you the average of those matches based on match slots are going to be I would predict say on average good to higher build the absolutely no fillers, I will even go one more step and say you'll be lucky to have no more than 3 average to worse matches slots over the entire weekend and just to cover my back a little I mean matches specifically on the card so anything before this does not count [I like to give myself a little bit of wiggle room and considering this and that prediction for more than a year away I think I can give myself a little bit of wiggle room,] for now until next year everyone gets it does get ready for Punk and/or Reigns taking on DarkState or another new faction/stable the main roster.

Warning: at one point or another there will probably be censored adult language references

Je'Von Evans vs. Dragon Lee vs. JD McDonagh vs. Rusev vs. Rey Mysterio vs Champ Penta; Six-Pack Ladder Match for the WWE Men's Intercontinental Championship: as I have been indicating from Night 1 they should allow wrestlers from generations past to have their moment at this event, especially in this case when we don't know how many more he has; they can always have a rematch at WWE Backlash to put it back on Penta.

Rhea Ripley vs. Champ Jade Cargill; Singles Match for the WWE Women's Championship: well this is a complete fudgin' joke to the point where if AEW had pulled the same manure 70% of you would be going mental about it and if you have no idea what I am making reference to so far in Cargill's months [roughly standing at over 160+ days as of this content being first created] reign as this champion I think she has on some research had one again Jordynne Grace on SmackDown Friday 13/02/2026 and that is it; how about we just get this championship away from her, because even creatively or wrestling wise they don't see anything in her, because if they did they would use her and this is just my opinion just for the record and for the love of any god you believe in can we please, please bring back the 30 day championship defence rule or if it should happen they are only a couple of days away over that fair enough or you know something for us to work with, because of these types of situations it is unacceptable for Cargill to hold onto this championship for this long and have only defended it once, I mean if they want to do this they should repackage her as Honky Tonk Women and I am sure she can learn how to play the guitar and look nice with an Elvis haircut.

"The Demon" Finn Bálor vs. Dominik Mysterio; Singles Match: I really don't care about this match The Judgement Day may have pretty much gone these days, but for me this is at least a year or more to late, as in this faction/stable has been unstimulating for so long now I just consider this match slot to be wasted by this match with an uninspiring stipulation to match as well.

Trick Williams vs. Champ Sami Zayn; Singles Match for the WWE Men's United States Championship: speaking of matches I couldn't give two manures about swiftly brings me on to this match, no I really couldn't or give two horses manures about this whole situation. Because simply put; Zayn shouldn't be anywhere near this championship let alone being its champion heading into this event, everyone knows it should be Williams vs. Champ Carmelo Hayes in this match slot, I mean what is it with the WWE and being unable to tell story feuds; Randy Orton vs. Champ Cody Rhodes; have a long and distinguished history, but regardless of interference from TKO let's not go with this feud that makes sense [yes I haven't been on board for this feud anyway, but as we are having it; let's have it... if you know what I mean?] But I digress; just go for putting Pat McAfee in the mix and here yet again let's go from a feud built from their NXT days either together or separately which would have made likewise perfect sense... No let's just put the championship on Zayn and missed this great opportunity to showcase this organically naturally built historic feud and to put over both young talents in Williams and Hayes on the biggest stage in all of professional wrestling, I mean if Zayn doesn't turn heel to retain his championship here, then what is the fudgin' point of putting the championship on him to do this potentially heel turn on the biggest stage of wrestling? Or on SmackDown Friday 17/04/2026 do the right thing WWE and at the very least make this a triple threat match for everyone I have mentioned in this match slot.

Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar [with Paul Heyman;] Singles Match: yet again with Seth Rollins vs. Walter this is another marquee match that needs a little bit more than this Singles Match stipulation; like I said yesterday; how about the winner gets to choose a main brand champion at SummerSlam 2026; I mean you could have hypothetically let's say CM Punk as champion taking on the possibility of the winner between Rollins vs. Walter on the Saturday of SummerSlam and on winner takes on Sunday it is going to be Femi or Lesnar; so if you are Punk you will have two wrestle twice in two days or of course you have the option of a triple threat on one night or both nights, I am just saying that these two massive matches that will fit any Wrestle Mania card in the past, present or future needs to be given a little bit more vision and/or respect and just simply 2 singles matches stipulations.

Roman Reigns vs. Champ CM Punk; Singles Match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship: now yes I wasn't and still am not keen on this match, but however it is a marquee match, which if I had any faith in the WWE hierarchy creative team I would say this match is going to be good, but back in reality; I can see them yet again trolling everyone and giving us a dusty finish with either someone debuting or returning to make it big impact... actually I have spent 5 seconds thinking about it; they are going to debut DarkState on to the main roster aren't they?... I can see it coming after these two have wrestled for may be somewhere between 45 to 50 minutes; the lights go out and here they come, I mean there has to be a reason why as things stand there are 7 matches on a Saturday and 6 matches on a Sunday, and I get it the six-pack match slot takes time and this main event will take time, but now I have sat here for more than two minutes... something is coming where for some reason we aren't getting a clean finish in this main event which is going to infuriate people more.

In fact whilst working on another piece of following wrestling content; it is just come to me as clear as day why would they want a clean finish here when they would make much more money putting a year behind it to then have a clean win in Riyadh Saudi Arabia Mania 43/2027, I guarantee you this is the direction that they are heading in, okay to cover my back I may not be completely right but I can see this match taking place again in Riyadh that is sure.

Additionally: it is now some to my attention that WWE have indeed cancelled a match of a marquee standard between Iyo Sky vs. Asuka: which firstly are you fudgin' nuts WWE? This match deserves and needs to be on the biggest stage of them all in professional wrestler and it is now probably going to take place at WWE Backlash I mean Wow talk about a great disservice to not one but two phenomena wrestlers and I am now really concerned on what manure they are going to put on instead.

Warning: at one point or another there will probably be censored adult language references

The Usos': Jey & Jimmy Uso & LA Knight vs. the WWE World Tag Champions The Vision's: Logan Paul & Austin Theory & IShowSpeed [with Paul Heyman;] Six-Man Tag Team Match: hopefully they will put the babyface's over to begin this night on the right foot And justify the Twins having a championships opportunity at WWE Backlash for the Men's Tag Team Championships.

Liv Morgan vs. Champ Stephanie Vaquer; Singles Match for the WWE Women's World Championship: I will be surprised if this match is still going ahead, based on Morgan's head injury, but if it does this match is just going to be recycled at WWE Backlash just a championship switch here and don't be too surprised if Raquel Rodriguez returns to make the difference here.

Charlotte Flair & Alexa Bliss vs. Bayley & Lyra Valkyria vs. The Bella Twins' Brie & Nikki Bella; Champs The Irresistible Forces' Nia Jax & Lash Legend; Fatal Four-Way Tag Team Match for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship: the Twins are a going to get their moment at this event and this will not be the only time they do something like this on this night

Jacob Fatu vs. Drew McIntyre; Unsanctioned Match: I really couldn't care less about this match, but they are probably going to write McIntyre off TV for a while anyway, I have no inside source on this but just common sense, I just know he has a movie project Highlander 2027 or 2028 alongside Dave Batista and others

Becky Lynch vs. Champ AJ Lee; Singles Match for the WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship: they should give Lee her moment at this event so that is my thinking here

Seth Rollins vs. Walter; Singles Match: for me this should be in the main event slot, I know it clearly won't be, but I'm talking about a true WrestleMania type of match; main event just stick the stipulation of whoever wins gets to pick their Championship opponent to close SummerSlam 2026, I mean with the right build this could have been a pinch of Andre the Giant vs. Champ Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania III 1987,with the only difference is in these modern times I have chosen the bigger man to win back to here and now Rollins is obviously going to be  frustration by this loss, but is going to want to  continue the war  at WWE Backlash

Randy Orton [with Pat McAfee] vs. Champ Cody Rhodes; Singles Match for the Undisputed WWE Championship; If Orton loses, McAfee will leave the professional wrestling business for good: I couldn't give less of a fudge about this match, I mean I wasn't on board with it begin with, but I mean if we are going to tell this story, they couldn't even get that right; thanks to TKO's involvement. I mean get from this history making rivalry to by all accounts the feud switching focus from the wrestlers to McAfee? I mean 9 times out of 10 I wouldn't believe rumours, but allegedly some people are saying that when Backlash rolled round it is going to be something to the effect of a tag team match between Rhodes & Jelly Roll vs. Champ Orton & McAfee for this event's main event slot, I mean what the hell are we doing here? This is precisely why I have completely checked out of this promotion and no if you have been following me long enough, you would know that it has been something over the last 3 or 4 years, I don't care who is to blame but this upcoming weekend is meant to be the biggest in the wrestling calendar and I am like meh, even more so now they have basically foreshadowed/told us by adding the extra stipulation that Orton isn’t going to lose here and you think this is bad next year's event is going to be I would feel comfortable suggesting maybe twice is worse based on the fact that hardly anyone can attend due to their sexual preferences or anything that goes against the Middle Eastern regime.

Generally speaking: the storyline/script in conjunction with the foundation and pacing is all good for this 102 minutes film; we do get this character developments/exposition voice over from/of Fahdlan: this is one of those movies where okay we quite clearly deal with before this adventure; but having said that this film is predominantly focused on this adventure and nothing after; so on reflection; it is predominantly situation/adventure based project and based on that I will give this project and extra mark, because it doesn't claim to be anything other than that.

Art and action; the set designs, scenery, wardrobe and etc are like the action sequences; well presented and without giving too much away we have a little skirmish behind enemy lines which likewise on reflection is the standout action of events as we get more variety of; mission, silence, attack, evacuation and art as we go underwater.

Comedy, character developments, action and performances; well this is comedy but also character developments; where these particular characters of Norse have somewhat questionable hygiene and how can I put this nicely?... They recycle the same water and Fahdlan and another politely decline, sometime later Fahdlan shows what he can do with a sword of his making and culture; so we very much have elements of a cultural divide and how Fahdlan learns how to speak Norse/consequently we the audience learn how to understand Norse also; in short the movie turns over to English... is a elegant way of doing things. Now this is very much a cast performance of all good chemistry and camaraderie as they all wanted to get this film done.

This film receives: 7/10, this film is good; as I referenced earlier; if you just see it as what it is; which is a good solid present adventure and nothing more then you can't go far wrong with it, but if you are expecting something anything other than this then and I am not disrespecting this film or anyone reading this; but maybe this film isn't for you.
