*Blog post started on October 28, 2020.
Oh the things you will write about when time crawls. And a stimulus will not occur till January at the earliest if ever. I just need the traffic. Too bad my station has a tablet and desktop at it. It would definitely look like I am not doing my job to have a laptop out on top of that.
On
top of coming up with stuff when time is crawling, I have gotten myself
into a situation where I need freshish wrestling takes. My "Ring Draft - Monday Night Raw 2020 - I Can Book with That"
post held up pretty well (Just one more episode will prove I am a
soothsayer.) from the time it was posted to when I started tweeting that
out, but when I do not engage with the WWE product directly (Tony Khan
needs those numbers.), I am starting to question my expertise on the
business as a whole. My failure to use my remaining vacation days to
catch indie shows does not help, but NJPW World still needs my time.
For my readers who solely follow MainEventoftheDead.com (I may need to spread out my promotional tweets over all for of my Twitter handles (@russthebus, @catbusruss, @ninetyforchill...I suppose this one should get a third of them for the accompanying website NinetyForChill.com, but my primary website needs @maineventzombie.), I do need to provide a decent amount of content per post to warrant the forwarding on to a sister site (like Russ's Remnants of Anime or Disgruntled Real Championship Wrestling). Fortunately, there has been a wrestling title change that needs to be addressed before I tell you why Bret Hart was not screwed in 1997, at least in terms of his WWF departure.
The 47th Current Disgruntled's Real World Women's Champion:
AEW World Women's Champion Hikaru Shida (Reign began on 10/25/2020):
After the lengthiness of the Bayley versus Sasha Banks storyline and a near five-star match to conclude Bayley's reign, I understand if you think this is the wrong decision. Especially after acknowledging that I am a devotee of AEW. Obviously, I must ask you to hear me out.
Banks
has never defended her championship successfully since NXT five years
prior. Hikaru Shida's defeated the best big woman, Nyla Rose, to earn
the championship and proved to be superior than NWA's champion, Thunder
Rosa. The word on the street is Thunder Rosa has signed with WWE, so
they cannot trade wins, so AEW has themselves a more legitimate champion than a past Real Women's Championship. Banks
can blame WWE talent relations for me not choosing her.
Time
is definitely going to tell when it comes to who is the better
champion, but I think Bank's reign cannot end before Shida's to take
this title.
Now, I would like to suggest that Io Shirai may have a better claim than Banks. When then NXT champion Shayna Baszler won the triple-threat match between the past two champions, Becky Lynch and Bayley, it showed that the NXT title should be on the same level as Raw's or Smackdowns. But, she failed to hold the title longer than the other title holders and falling to Lynch at WrestleMania. With no title being on the line at the past Survivor Series, what were the real stakes?
You can refer to my "The OCHO or the Disgruntled's Real Secondary Championship" and say that I made Roderick Strong a part of that history because of his success at the 2019 Survivor Series over WWE's US and IC champs. But, the champions he beat lost their titles before he lost his. He proved that his reign as North American Champion was not a fluke. Hence, Baszler did not elevate her championship, so Io Shirai cannot qualify yet.
When it comes to the other gender's Disgruntled's Real Champion, it all depends on what you believe in terms of kayfabe. Did Bret screw Bret? I think his pay days say otherwise.
"Wrestling with Shadows" Is a Docudrama at Best.
