Blog of DOOM Daily News Update – 24th August 2021

Happy Tuesday Everyone!

I’m off to Huddersfield tonight for some hot sexy League Cup action. The highlight of the night will be if I can make it to Huddersfield before they close the Wimpy Burger. Come On You Blues have asked me to write up a preview, which you can read HERE. I watched some brief clips of Raw on YouTube, and I’m actually somewhat interested to see what will happen with a certain wrestler challenging another wrestler for her belt. It’ll be kind of like Freddy Vs Jason, whoever wins we all lose.

Scheduled today on the Blog: Thomas Hall has the Raw review up from last night. Andy PG has reviewed AEW Elevation (Just like a mole, digging up a hole, digging up my soul now going down, excavation). There’s still time to read Dave Newman’s New Japan, Jabroniville’s Joshi Spotlight and Logan Scisco’s WWF 1990 reviews from yesterday too. Later on today we’ve got some AWA from Scott Keith for good measure!

Now some news from Cultaholic

TNT are probably happy with that, which is the most important thing

Some new Young Lions due to debut in New Japan

I predict they will do Vertical Suplexes and Boston Crabs whilst showing a level of competency in the ring that pretty much every other company on Earth would kill for when it comes to younger debuting wrestlers

Paul Wight wants to wrestle Sting

I’m not so sure that’s a good idea to be honest

Becky Lynch to go Heel?!
