WWE Cruiserweight Live Opinion - Dear Crowds...

Hiya guys,

This post is way too negative for my own liking but, after my exam this morning, I was almost brought to tears while I was watching WWE RAW from last night. I needed somewhere to air my grievances and tonight I'm having a go at the crowd, not Creative or the superstars.

I was enjoying last nights show and, as usual, I was way too excited for the Cruiserweights match. The whole Monday night show is just me waiting for some of the Cruiserweights to come on and put those superstars to shame with their ability and technique. Well, you can imagine how upset I was when 4 of my favourite stars, Neville/ TJP v Austin Aries/ Jack Gallagher) on the ENTIRE roster had a tag team match. Wait, no... I wasn't upset that they came on, I was upset about the crowd's reaction. Those chants of 'This is boring,' and how the crowd wanted a refund really made me feel sick. Okay, you may not connect to these stars as much as the ones that you've watched for years but these guys are veterans in their own right. So tell me what's boring about that? Getting to even see them should be a blessing.

So, why do I love the Cruiserweight Division so much? 

It's the sheer talent of these guys. Being a smaller girl myself, it's amazing to see stars who may not as big as the main roster guys but can still do these high intensity manoevers. What about those high flying moves from the top rope? I have never seen something as beautiful as Mustafa Ali's 450 Splash or Standing Spanish Fly and Jack G going all Mary Poppins on our arse. What about those technical submissions that show the sheer precision of the stars? TJ's TJP Clutch or Brian Kendrick's Captain's Hook are a thing of glory.


Each match is something different and we don't see the same guys winning or the same moves on the same people. TJ Perkins once said that 'Good wrestlers prepare, great ones adapt.' I think that perfectly sums up the Cruiserweights because each star has to change their style depending on their opponent. 

I don't even want to get started about the stars themselves and the characters they portray. We have:
- A King who was overlooked by the WWE Universe (Neville)
- A Gentleman with his good ol' umbrella William III (Jack Gallagher)
- A gaming geek who =is now a bad ass (TJP)
- A wizard breaking stereotypes (Mustafa Ali)
- The Premier Athlete with ABS (Tony Nese
- A Man with a Plan... and amazing ring gear (The Brian Kendrick)
It's such a diverse roster with no two superstars even remotely similar and there's a star for everyone!


So tell me again why these guys are disrespected so much? They put their hearts and bodies on the line to entertain us and all you do is complain - you don't deserve their talent. I really hope it gets better because they deserve better. Please, I know you have your opinions on 205 Live but be respectful because its a decent thing to do.

Sorry for this rant but, as soon as I saw the show, I couldn't be quiet anymore because it's been going on for too long.

That's all for now my dears,
See you soon

xx

My Dissertation Story

Hi my lil' fairies Hasn't it been a long time since I've spoken to you lovely people? Well my title can probably tell you why. I am in my third year of university and the last few months have consisted of research and writing my dissertation. However, after a solid 7 months, I finally handed my dissertation in on Monday and I can't tell you how much of a weight has been lifted off me. It's almost like this 10, 966 words (I know, I cut it very finely on the word count) have become part of me, mainly because I have invested so much time and effort into it. Before I even started to stress about writing it, I had to come up with an idea for it. I chose my overall topic the year before and this meant that I had to pick within the topic, but it didn't mean restrictions - it was the opposite for me. I picked the cultural revolution in Germany and Britain and this gave me endless possibilities. Initially, I chose to do Britain because I thought that my lack of Ger...

Lawson - Perspective Track by Track Album Review

Hiya Guys, You may be shocked to hear that this post brings back Music Friday **except it's on a Tuesday *so it's Tune Tuesday* bc why not** In 2012, 4 piece band Lawson released their debut album Chapman Squar e which peaked at number 4 in the UK album charts with emotional and heart wrenching tracks like Stolen and The Girl I Knew.  Fast forward 4 years, of which included Andy having a near death experience and months of writing, the long awaited second album  Perspective has finally been released. This album takes a very different approach and style from the first album and is a lot more upbeat and happy than Chapman Square. This is an absolutely amazing album filled with love, passion, some brilliant chord progressions, amazing vocals and some awesome guitar solos! So here is my track by track review of the album and please bare with me and read to the end *it is worth it*: Perspective (Intro) This track is a great way to start the new album and real...

The Start of Something New

Hiya Guys, Contrary to the title and my love of Disney, this blog post isn't all about High School Musical (but one day maybe). Today I had my last exam and that officially signals the end of my college life and, even though I am excited for a new start, I thought I'd reminisce on my time and also give some of you lovely people advice if you are starting college. I never really expected to enjoy college as much as I did because High School was life changing and really brought me out of my shell. However, college really defined who I was as a person and who I want to be in the future. It also helped me grow as a person by giving me my first taste of independence and I met people I hope will stay in my life forever. I'm not saying that college is the route for everyone because there are so many different options like finding a job or doing an apprenticeship. But, for me, college was something I'd always wanted and knew that it would give me skills to combat the...
