Give Me the Prize: Download that Queen Song and the NEW Disgruntled's Interim Champion

Give Me the Prize: Download that Queen Song and the NEW Disgruntled's Interim Champion 

*Blog post was started on June 10, 2022.

I am in a relatively good mood. It turns out that all of my stress may have been based out of financial concerns, but I ended up figuring that out. There is still a need to address my parents when it comes to what they are expecting from their 42 year-old son with no kids and a job that just pays enough but does not offer a retirement (The stock market is killing me right now as I stick around $1..., best not let Experian google me.).

Of course, trying to get home to do that when your job does not offer a set schedule can be a challenge. With Fan Expo coming up soon, I need to find out who is babysitting my big sister, so I guess I just have to deal with the gas prices. There is enough credit to get a scooter out right, but that does not necessarily build my credit?

I got to get my mind off of the money. This is something that I had just conquered. Live in the present I suppose.

And this present has lead us to a time where we are actually going to crown an Interim Men's World Champion. It is probably going to be a simple exercise, but with my brain, I can probably over complicate it.

The Actual Disgruntled's Men's World Heavyweight Champion

The most recent DRCW Interim Championship was established after Seth Rollins cashed in Money in the Bank. This reign is included in the Disgruntled's Real Men's World Championship title history, but this was the second time that I declared a Money in the Bank cash in part of the history. It is a cowardly way to earn the championship, because of that, I, as the Disgruntled, negated the other 19 people who have won this way.

With hindsight being 20/20 (One more reason why we should have known to wear mask and get vaccinated. The year told us to think of 1918.), I went back to offer alternative champions. Tony Khan is making the wise decision to state his own interim champion, but for a mark, we have four other champions who may be better than a soon to be glorified number one contender. Thus, it is time to figure out who is the current champion in waiting.

Is it ROH World Champion Jonathan Gresham?

I would say it was being handled well as a traveling world champion before Tony Khan purchased Ring of Honor. This is an excellent celebration of independent wrestling, harkening back to how the NWA World Championship operated before WCW. Of course the times between WCW and TNA and TNA and Billy Corgan buying the NWA, the luster was lost.

With Khan purchasing Ring of Honor, until the promotion establishes some kind of schedule, I suspect we will only see Gresham on "Battle of the Belts" events. To pay proper respect to the championship, the shows on TNT needs to be expanded to two hours.

Anyhow, Khan already had a world champion available. Why did he not just bring ROH into the fold as CM Punk mends? Gresham could be your top champion as we waited for Punk's comeback. It makes your purchase look great and more importantly meaningful. You could have your schmoz champion versus champion match instead of a unification. Everyone looks good. Instead, ROH is an after thought.

Is it NWA World Champion Matt Cardona?

With him being injured right now, I could see Billy Corgan looking for his own interim champion. That would seem tacky. Cardona being the top indie heel right now, it maybe wise to let his hold the undisputed NWA top guy and not name an interim champ or strip him of the championship. You want to see the heel get his comeuppance, not valiantly challenge for a championship. Letting him be an inactive champion makes us want to see him lose THE title even more.

Is it IWGP World Champion Kazuchika Okada?

He is definitely the number two champion behind CM Punk. I think his title reign has been great, but I think it is best to let him be the man arguing to be champion instead being the champion.

Think of it as, why did AEW not have number one ranked Jon Moxley face number two ranked Wardlow to settle it? There would be no drama, so you need someone to claim they are not being recognized. AEW is doing that anyhow with Adam Cole and Adam Page feuding over who gets to take on the other world champion.

Is it WWE Undisputed Universal Champion Roman Reigns?

Roman Reigns is only a better performer than one of the three other world champions. That statement scares me because it suggest that Cardona will betray the indies like Cody Rhodes because he is also from the WWE system.

With this kind of opinion of him, he seems appropriate to be this champion except, I do not see him losing this championship until summer 2023. AEW is the best booked championship, so they will always offer a better man than Reigns. Thus, he will never get to shake this interim belt off.

Tony Khan needs to screw up for this to change. I would say that is inevitable, but I am not up to placing a bet on that. Anyhow, I am happy with Fan Duel. Fuck Draft Kings.

The Disgruntled's Interim Men's World Champion is: Kazuchika Okada.

With AEW wanting to determine an Interim World Champion, it means the champion must be around to defend the belt. I do not know why Roman Reigns has a lightened schedule since I have not heard of movies or reality TV shows in the work. Thus, he is not around to fulfill the wishes of Disgruntled fans. Further cementing his status as the DRCW Modern Poser Champion.

Another week and another WWE burial. The more things change, the more they stay the same. And I got two weeks before therapy to determine if things are good or bad. Gods, I need a social life...

Or at least a guest for "NinetyForChill.com: The #Podcast". If you want to be on the show, send an email to russthebus07@gmail.com. All I need is a theme, movie, director, or actor to chat about. The only restriction on films is that the narrative must conclude in 1 hour 39 minutes 59 seconds. If there is a post credit scene after that time, it does not qualify.

Do not worry wresting fans. With my drinking during the show, wrestling rants end up being a feature, not a bug.
