Something Different For A Change… A Look Into Cobra Kai’s Final Season

Source: https://www.netflix.com/tudum/cobra-kai-season-6-final-season

Apparently, they’re only getting around to film Cobra Kai’s final season now and we still have no word on when it’s going to hit… so no news, then.

I’ve been rewatching Cobra Kai this past week before cancelling my Netflix subscription and honestly, it’s a good show. I missed out on the whole Karate Kid thing as a younger kid, but the show got me interested in those movies that I bought a DVD set with said movies, which I thought were alright. I found myself enjoying Part 2 more so than the other two, and Part 3, despite being a total retread of Part 1, had its moments. I even watched the 2010 “remake” with Jackie Chan… and that one is something, I guess.

I’m looking forward to seeing how the show wraps up when it finally drops. And I’m especially curious about this new Karate Kid movie that’s going to combine the two movies together. I’d imagine it won’t be a total dumpster fire, but who knows for sure?

But I’m sure that we can blame DWAYNE if things go tits up.

KNUCKLES Trailer (& Knuckles)

Well, it’s the trailer for the six-episode “event” or whatever the fuck they’re calling it… because everything has to be an “event” these days. Nothing can ever just be a mini-series or even a series.

Anyway… it’s more Knuckles… and you can do no wrong with moar Knuckles…

Unless you throw in a DWAYNE…

Something Different For A Change… Anthem Fires TNA President Scott D’Amore

Anthem shitcans Scott D’Amore – a guy who’s been with TNA since the dawn of time – and replaces him with some other dude. And shortly after they rebranded back to TNA…

So how long before they bring back the owl?

Also, can we somehow blame DWAYNE for this?

A Random Thought On This Cody/DWAYNE/Roman Dilemma

So, tomorrow’s the Wrestlemania Live Presser, right? They need to find a way to announce that DWAYNE bought his way into a main event with Roman while carjacking Cody’s title shot that he won at the Rumble. The whole thing seems to be a bit of a pickle.

So you know what this thing needs?

More Armed Anderson.

Armed Anderson refers to a promo that Arn Anderson cut on Cody a couple years ago on AEW, where he talked about the differences between Arn and Cody in handling a carjacking. Whereas Cody would just step aside and let the carjacking happen, Arn would pull out his Glock, point it at the carjacker’s head, and spill his brains all over the concrete… and then this became a meme.

Cody got carjacked by DWAYNE. And now Armed Anderson’s gotta fix it.

Mind you, you can replace the Glock with a Tranquilizer Gun if you want to keep it family friendly, but at this press event on Thursday, Arn could come in and shoot all three to put them all out of their misery – just say they all suffered minor flesh wounds and they can be back on TV in a couple weeks.

Then Damien Priest can come in, cash in his briefcase, and pin the unconscious Roman to become the new Undisputed Universal champion.

That way, DWAYNE and Roman can have their little main event match while Cody can go ahead and finish his little story. And Arn gets more memes.

Obviously something like that isn’t going to happen… it’s just a stray thought I had… but fuck me, that’d be more interesting and newsworthy than all this white noise going on.

Royal Ramble 2024

Well… on a rather “uneventful” week of news, we got a rather “uneventful” Rumble.

Would’ve been nice if it were true…

So, yes, there was a particularly dark cloud that preceded over what initially began as a rather big week of development in WWE – notably the announcement of a monumental deal with Netflix that would see the streaming service become the new home of Monday Night RAW in 2025 as well as all subsequent WWE Network content outside the United States, which means that come 2025, Canada can watch WWE material on Netflix and the WWE Network would be no more. And I’ve made a post on that when the news broke.

And then… the other thing happened… I’m sure you know what I’m talking about…

I’m not going to say anything regarding that piece of business. There’s nothing I can say that hasn’t already been said and quite honestly, I would be doing nothing but adding more white noise to a ball of white noise surrounding a dreadfully disturbing situation that is still developing and will continue to do so for quite some time. Maybe some day… but not today.

In any event, I did watch some of the Rumble live, but not all of it. I ended up getting caught up with the rest of the show during the week. As to why this took longer than usual… well, other stuff came up, but I’m afraid there’s not much I could say abut the show. The card was fairly light – only four matches – but when two of those matches are the annual Royal Rumbles – it’s easy to forgive the lightweight content.

Anyway, let’s check this show out.

Impact (February 1st, 2024) – Settling Into A Groove

Could it be? Another weekly IMPACT musings?!

Why, yes… yes, it can…

This show is easy to watch, you’ll get a couple decent matches out of it, and for what it’s worth, the few little angles that they’ve got going on here and there aren’t that difficult to follow. I will admit that the shows have settled into a groove and probably won’t hit the heights experienced with that initial outing, but hey, so long as the shows are entertaining enough and fly by quickly, I’m more than content with that.
