Alright, let’s talk about this wrestling stuff, the WWE, you know? Folks keep jabberin’ about it, so I figured I’d put in my two cents, even if those cents ain’t worth much.
So, this whole WWE San Jose 2024 thing, or whatever they call it. Sounds like a big to-do. They got these fellas, big ol’ strong fellas, grapplin’ and smackin’ each other around. Reminds me of the pigs fightin’ over slop back on the farm, only these fellas wear fancier britches.
I hear tell there’s all sorts of wrestlers, some good, some bad, some just plain silly. They got this WWE Roster, a whole bunch of ’em. Like a barn full of chickens, all cluckin’ and struttin’ around. Some of ’em are on this “Raw” show, some on “SmackDown,” and then there’s this “NXT” thing, which I reckon is where the young’uns start out.
They got these big events, too, like prize fights at the county fair, only bigger and louder. They call ’em WWE PPV Special Events. Sounds fancy, but it’s just a bunch of fellas beatin’ each other up for our entertainment. And folks pay good money to watch it! Goes to show, people will pay for anything these days. They had one in Toronto in 2025, I think, or maybe it was supposed to be. Hard to keep track of all this stuff.
They were talkin’ about sellin’ tickets for somethin’ called Elimination Chamber, in Toronto. Big ol’ place, Rogers Centre, they said. Sounded like a real ruckus. Tickets went on sale Friday. Don’t know which one though, there’s a lot of Fridays in a year ain’t there? These city folk are always in a hurry, rushin’ around, buyin’ tickets, sellin’ tickets. Makes my head spin.
- They got these fellas, the WWE Superstars, they call ’em. Some of ’em are old-timers, been around longer than my prize-winning rooster, and some are new, fresh faces, like spring chickens. You can watch their highlights, see their videos and pictures, read news about them, just about anything you wanna know. It’s like lookin’ at a prize cow at the fair, only these “cows” are human and yell a lot more.
- And then, there’s always talk about who’s gettin’ the boot, who’s been released. They got a whole list of ’em, fellas and gals who ain’t with the WWE no more. Managers, announcers, producers, even “ambassadors,” whatever that means. It’s like sellin’ off the old cows after they ain’t good for milkin’ no more.
- This year, 2024, they say the roster has been shakin’ up. Lots of changes, folks comin’ and goin’. It’s like the weather, never stays the same for long. One minute it’s sunny, the next it’s rainin’ wrestlers, or somethin’ like that.
Now, I don’t know much about this wrasslin’, but I do know a thing or two about hard work and puttin’ on a show. These fellas, they train hard, they sweat, they bleed. And they do it all for us, for the folks in the stands, for the folks watchin’ on TV. It ain’t like plantin’ corn but it’s hard work all the same. They put on a show, make us cheer, make us boo, make us forget about our troubles for a little while.
And that, I reckon, is worth somethin’. Even if it is just a bunch of fellas in tights smackin’ each other around. So, if you’re lookin’ for a bit of excitement, a bit of fun, go check out this WWE stuff. Just don’t expect it to make much sense. It ain’t supposed to. It’s like a rooster crowin’ at sunrise, you just accept it and move on with your day.
WWE in 2024, it’s a whole world of its own. And maybe, just maybe, there’s a little bit of somethin’ for everyone in that world. Even for an old gal like me, who’d rather be watchin’ the grass grow. But hey, at least the wrestlers are easier to spot than them sneaky weeds in my garden.
Anyway, that’s all I gotta say about it. Go on now, get yourself a soda and a snack, and watch them fellas wrestle. Just don’t blame me if you don’t understand it all. Like I said, I don’t neither.
