    WWE Smackdown War Of Words

    In a great promo Friday Night on Smackdown, Cena outlines how he got to this point with the WWE championship. Yet gets interrupted by Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton and LA Knight. It was great to see a pumped up Rhodes, mentioning a crucial point how he pinned Cena at the Money In The Bank PLE. Orton has his own point, going back to Backlash where he was robbed of the WWE championship. Then in a more shocking turn of events LA Knight throws his proverbially hat in the ring. A stand out one liner in that segment came from a master of the mic, Knight calling Cena a ‘balding b’. As if that was enough as the ring quickly filled with enemies for the current champion, as Cena would try to exit he would get attacked by Ron Killings. It’s fair to say that things are not going the so called ‘genius’s way, piling up enemies at several fronts. The results of the King Of The Ring tournament will also be vital as the winner of it all will get a title opportunity. Rhodes advanced last night, defeating Nakamura, Priest and Andrade in a fatal 4 way contest.

    Overview of the 2025 MITB PLE:

    As I assumed the show kicked off with the Women’s money in the bank ladder match. Introduced first was my pick to win it all Alexa Bliss. Followed by Roxanne Perez, Naomi, Stephanie Vaquer, Giulia and finally Rhea Ripley. The ring started divided, the main stays of Bliss, Naomi and Ripley on one side and the up and comers of Roxanne, Vaquer and Giulia on the other. A nice little way to start off after………..

  • MONEY IN THE BANK 2025 PREDICTIONS

    *Image credited to WWE*
    Money In The Bank is tonight coming from LA, we will find out tonight who will come away with the money in the bank briefcases and a good chance of cashing the contract held in that briefcase in to become champion up until Wrestlemania 42 ends.

    Women’s Money In the Bank Ladder Match:

    I’m assuming the PLE may kick off with this first of 2 money in the bank ladder matches. The 6 women competing are as follows: Alexa Bliss, Roxanne Perez, Rhea Ripley, Giulia, Stephanie Vaquer and Naomi. While this match could go anyone’s way I’m leading towards Alexa Bliss bringing home the briefcase for a second time in her career. Since returning a month ago Bliss hasn’t really made much of a splash yet and we’ve seen the spats between Bliss and current Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton.


    If I’m going by who I’m rooting for then I’d like to see either Alexa Bliss or Roxanne Perez take home the briefcase. While I’m a big fan of Alexa I’m also a fan of Roxanne and as far as who’s career will benefit more from a win tonight that would be The Prodigy Roxanne Perez, I’d like to see her come away with the victory and pick up a big win into her short spanned main roster career so far.

    Women’s Intercontinental Title Match

    Becky Lynch v. Lyra Valkyria (c)

    This match can go either way. I’ve been a fan of Becky’s since her days as the Lass Kicker down at NXT and it’s great to see her back. Becky is not one I’d count out of any match especially with a title on the line but for this match I’m going with the ‘underdog’ and I put that in quotes because I don’t know that I can classify Valkyria as an underdog but I’m going with Lyra Valkyria here, Lyra needs this win more, not only would it be a big win for her but it will also add to her title reign having defended against someone the caliber of a Becky Lynch. In terms of who I am rooting for as a fan that would be Becky Lynch.

    Men’s Money In The Bank Ladder Match:

    The field for this match consists of: LA Knight, Penta, Andrade, Solo Sikoa, Seth Rollins and El Grande Americano. As for my pick it coincides with who I’ll be rooting for in this match as a fan, Seth Rollins. Seth comes into this match riding the most momentum in my opinion since aligning with Paul Heyman and forming a faction with Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. This faction needs a big statement and a Seth Rollins with the money in the bank briefcase is dangerous, just look at Wrestlemania 31.

    Tag Match, John Cena (c) and Logan Paul v. Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso (c)

    I expect without a doubt this will be the main event for the night. This is another match where my pick and who I’m rooting for as a fan coincides, Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso. I am a major Cody Rhodes fan. Since losing the WWE Championship to John Cena at Wrestlemania 41, we haven’t seen Rhodes up until his appearence at Saturday Night’s Main Event. I expect Rhodes to continue riding the momentum of his return with a statement win alongside Jey Uso, possibly bringing himself back in the running for the WWE Championship and a chance to win it back from current champion John Cena.

    It all kicks off tonight 7pm EST and 4pm PST, with a countdown show beginning at 5:30pm EST and 2:30pm PST.

  • TOM THIBODEAU FIRED

    Knicks fire Tom Thibodeau. I predicted this would happen should this post season not go well and if the Knicks did not win game 6. Being that the team was changed last year I guess this was the next step, however I don’t feel this move was necessary at least give the chance to run it back next season after just having one of the best runs in a long long time. It’s yet to be seen how this move will pan out but I feel it’s unnecessary. This was a nonsense gesture due to a season that did not end with a championship.

  • IN DEFENSE OF JALEN BRUNSON

    Displays the characters and values of a Captain. ✔

    Takes less money to stick with the team and allow for other acquisitions for improvement ✔

    Argue the negative +/- for the time Brunson was on the court in the Pacer’s series I ask where were you for the Piston’s and Celtics series? Do you think we make it through to the ECF without number 11? 

    Knicks-Pistons Brunson scored 34 game 1, 37 game 2, 30 game 3, 32 game 4, 40 game 6. Knicks-Celtics Brunson scored 39 game 4. It’s important to also take into account Brunson’s late game 4th quarter heroics. Brunson has been clutch and there’s no on I trust more to have the ball in their hands, that opinion hasn’t changed.
    I salute all of the Knicks for a hell of a season, one that ultimately got them further in the end than anyone thought, and thank you Jalen Brunson, the hatred right now is ridiculous.

    Yes I’m in defense of the Brunson ‘headbutt’ to Nembhard, at least someone was playing with fire and intensity.

  • A CACOPHANY OF ERRORS

    As a Knicks fan Game 6 was absolutely disgusting embarrassing game to watch. The first quarter was just about the only positive quarter the entire game where things were kept razor thin ending with pacers 25 – Knicks 24. That quarter was closed out on a 9-5 point run in favor of the Knicks. But the big issue was coming out of half time, it just seemed like this whole game the pacers had more drive, determination and energy. I didn’t see the same from the Knicks aside for 2 players Mitchell Robinson and Jalen Brunson. The effect of Robinson cannot be understated, without him and his 9 boards 5 of which were offensive rebounds occurring in the first quarter, the Knicks would have been decimated even further. 

    I saw too many errors and sloppy play. I saw a team that at times, and I hate saying the word, seemed lazy. I didn’t seem the same kind of effort and rugged style the pacers put forth last night. I’d have to rewatch this game to point out all the spots but I saw poor passing, lack of getting capable rebounds and exactly what I didn’t want to see too many turn overs which played right into the pacers hands. There was far too much wide open spacing allowing the pacers to knock down easy 3’s. You can’t have a game like that and expect to survive and elimination game you just can’t.

    While I didn’t enjoy what I saw I realize this has been long rough stretch of postseason and the Knicks got further than was expected which is a win in it’s own right, I prefer to see the positive. I’m not on the bandwagon of looking at trades or changing coaching staff, this team made it this far for a reason and I believe they have the same capabilities next season. But the display last night at least for now leaves a bad taste in the mouth and I had the feeling unfortunately the results of game 1 would loom large.

  • KNICKS FORCE A GAME 6

    Led by the captain #11 and the big kat Karl Anthony Towns the knicks successfully staved on elimination at MSG defeating the pacers 111-94. For the first time this series the knicks kept a lead over the pacers from beginning to end. Breaking down the quarterly box score:

    First Quarter Knicks: 27 Pacers: 23 led by a 14 point barrage from Jalen Brunson.

    Second Quarter: Knicks: 29 Pacers: 22  

    Third Quarter: Knicks: 34 Pacers: 28 Things get a bit shaky, Towns is forced to sit out most of the quarter due to 3 personal fouls.

    Fourth Quarter: Knicks: 21 Pacers: 21

    The Pacers attempted 74 shots all game on roughly 40.5% shooting compared to the Knicks 89 shot attempts on 49.4% shooting, with a vast shot attempt disparity of 15. 

    The Knicks did a good job of marginalizing a strong suit of the Pacers, fast break points. The Pacers would have 16 fast break points and the Knicks 15.

    The Knicks also outrebounded the pacers 45 to 40. 

    An important notable is the Knicks kept Pacer’s center piece Tyrese Haliburton relatively quiet, 4 points on 7 shot attempts, 4 points on 5 free throw attempts, an 8 point total for the game.

    Pascal Siakam who torched the Knicks last visit to the garden in GM 2 was held to 15 points total.

    I’ve been wanting to see more coast to coast play and pushing from Josh Hart we got that last night. The importance of KAT to remain on the floor and limit fouls cannot be understated and was seen in game 5 the pacers don’t have an answer for containing him especially when he is aggressive and driving in to the paint. Brunson has played his part this series no surprise over the post season, sinking 43 in GM 1, 36 in GM 2, 32 in GM 4 and 31 points in pivotal GM 5. The Knicks will travel to Indiana at Gainbridge Fieldhouse for Game 6 in hopes of forcing a Game 7 Saturday night.
