Philadelphia had one hell of a weekend in pro wrestling. From TakeOver all the way through to 205 Live, the hits just kept coming.

Aleister Black. Adam Cole (Bay Bay!). Andrade Almas. Johnny Gargano. Candice LeRae! Tommaso Ciampa… Rey Mysterio. Hurricane Helms. LOL. Shinsuke Nakamura! vs AJ Styles at WrestleMania??? BRAUN STROWMAN! BROCK LESNAR!!! Nobody is ready for Asuka! …but what about Rowdy Ronda Rousey?! The Miz is (STILL) Awesome. Carmella (coulda woulda shoulda… maybe?). and finally… Rockstar Spud (I mean Drake Maverick).

Featuring: Joshua Schlag (@thesteelcage / @schlizzag), ‘The Mayor of Reseda’ Derek (@cap_kaveman), and ‘Super Jew’ Jared (@SuperJew75).

Joshua Schlag

For most of the last 30+ years of my life, I've been watching WWE. As a kid, Monday Night Raw hooked me from the start. From Bret Hart and Razor Ramon, to Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock, to CM Punk and Daniel Bryan.. I've witnessed the ups and downs and I'm proud to have enjoyed pro wrestling through the years.

Though I now watch in a much different fashion than I did when I was a kid (finding out Vince McMahon was the owner and Jack Tunney no more than a figurehead was like finding out Santa Claus did not exist), I feel like I have a much greater appreciation for the hard work pro wrestlers do and the things they sacrifice to entertain us.

It's still real to me, dammit!
