Blog of DOOM Daily News Update – 14th August 2021

Happy Rampage Aftermath Day Everyone!

I’m actually writing this up on Friday night as I’m up early tomorrow to go and have my second jab, followed by a trip to Goodison Park to very likely watch Everton get stuffed like a Christmas Day turkey by Southampton because we are absolutely awful

Ah, football…

Scheduled today on the Blog: Apologies if I miss anyone out here as I’m going off what is showing as scheduled on Friday night, so if someone slips in another one in the meantime and I miss it, then I apologise profusely. It wouldn’t shock me if we have some Rampage reviews. Thomas Hall reviews basically everything so we can probably rely on him to review it if nothing else. Dave Newman has done a very entertaining article where he looks at wrestling stars on talk shows that is worth your time. There’s still time to read Dream Matches and WWF 1990 from both Jabroniville and Logan respectively. I’ve also posted a review of WWF SummerSlam 1989 (I wrote this a bit in advance before I knew Scott was going to be doing his SummerSlam countdown so I’m not stealing from him. Honest!) and it should be right below this Daily Thread

I keep meaning to sign up to Impact+ so I can go back and watch the pay per views from 04-06 actually, and I seem to recall that Williams was a big part of that era, having many a great match with the likes of Chris Sabin and AJ Styles
