Strikeforce-Battle of the Legends: Fedor vs Hendo

Posted on July 29, 2011 by shamgaranath

After the last event I came to a great realization. I stink at MMA predictions. So I’m trying the exact opposite of what I would choose (the George Costanza method, for you Seinfeld buffs). We’ll see how much better I … Continue reading →

Broskis of the World Unite

Posted on July 27, 2011 by shamgaranath

This is a quick warning. I do a lot of soapbox action here. If you do not agree with me, then it is fine; we will make an agreement to disagree. I am also not wanting to offend anybody or … Continue reading →

A Ruff Look at Raw

Posted on July 27, 2011 by shamgaranath

Last night we were greeted to another really nice Raw. I’m liking this… tentatively. I’ve sat through too many non-followed-up-on angles to plunge all my trust into this version of the creative team. I hated John Cena winning the belt. … Continue reading →

Raw is Hunter 7-25-11

Posted on July 26, 2011 by shamgaranath

Last week, we saw one of the weirdest, most bizarre changes in wrestling history. Tonight, there seems to be a new era, the real-life McMahon-Helmsley era, if you will. Questions abound. Who will become champion? Will Alberto del Rio cash … Continue reading →

Posted on July 25, 2011 by shamgaranath

ESPN & Brett Favre- Co-dependent? I’ve already said this once before. I don’t want to say it again. No Brett Favre. Get him off my tv. I do not want him on my team. Let’s start focusing on real news stories. … Continue reading →

Random Wrestling Rant #1

Posted on July 22, 2011 by shamgaranath

I know I call my blog Ruff’s Ramblings, but this may be my first Ruff Rant. There’s two things I need to yell at here. First, Gene Snitsky. (http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/239281-snitsky-claims-miz-rant-was-due-to-his-twitter-being-hacked) Gene Snitsky went on a homophobic rant on “The Miz” on … Continue reading →

Strikeforce Challengers Preview 7-22-11

Posted on July 20, 2011 by shamgaranath

The MMA live action has been a little quiet over the past few months. There’s plenty of hype around the MMA world. We’ve had Tito Ortiz replace Phil Davis to face Rashad Evans in the next UFC Pay-Per-Views. Little Nog … Continue reading →

Reflections on Raw 7-18-11

Posted on July 19, 2011 by shamgaranath

There is a lot to reflect on for last night’s Raw. Initially I hated the ending segment of Raw, and in my opinion, deservedly so. I saw it as the McMahons inserting themselves into whatever hot storyline they wanted to … Continue reading →

Raw Is… A Tournament? 7-18-11

Posted on July 19, 2011 by shamgaranath

Vince is walking to the ring (wearing a hideous coat with a color that does not exist in nature) with Johnny Ace in tow (whom I have decided is now mute). CM Punk is ingrateful. There will be an 8-Man … Continue reading →
