Wrasslin' Wednesday

So this Saturday, WWE will invade England for The 2023 Money In The Bank Premium Event...

It is probably the easiest way to a title shot for up to a year.  This year, is very intriguing.

There could be a lot of fallout and implications depending on which way the Money In The Bank Cases end up on both the Men's and Women's Matches.

Due to the fact the event is at the O2 Arena in London... Money In The Bank will be at 3pm EST on Saturday on Peacock.

Before these events I make my predictions which again are just guesses and if you are a gambler please use better judgement than mine.  Bet with your wallet not with your heart and definitely not what I predict.  

Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa vs. The Usos

This one wreaks of a helper of some sort.  The Head of The Table Roman Reigns is probably looking for some payback after losing The Usos.  

Men's Money In The Bank Match: LA Knight, Ricochet, Shinsuke Nakamura, Damian Priest, Butch, Santos Escobar, and Logan Paul.

I think the addition of Logan Paul is just a smoke screen.  Really any of these competitors could win.  I think Logan and Ricochet will put on the best show. (But that doesn't always mean you win in the WWE.)  Logan Paul and Seth Rollins is always a good match-up...  Big fans want to see LA Knight get the push and he very well could, I would like that... YEAH!!!!   A few weeks ago there was some animosity in the ranks of the 'Judgement Day'.   So I will say Damian Priest get the briefcase and if.. that's IF his pal Fin Balor gets the in against Seth Rollins...  then there could be some real interesting moves.  Just Sayin...   

Women's Money In The Bank Match: Becky Lynch, Iyo Sky, Trish Stratus, Zoey Stark, Bailey and Zelina Vega.

This much like the Men's MITB Match... I think Iyo Sky and Zoey Stark are going to take most of the attention of the match.  Becky seems like she would do the most justice to the briefcase.  Trish, Bailey and Zelina could all pick up the win as they are savvy enough to do so and always seem to take advantage of most situations.   Zoey Stark could sneak in with a push...  But I think it is Becky Lynch or Iyo Sky who walk away with the briefcase.  Leaning Becky right now.

Seth Rollins vs Finn Balor for World Title

I'm Seth Rollins all the way on this one OOOOhhhhh OoooHHHHH OOOOHHHHHH...  But you never know the match years ago between these 2 was epic.  Either who wins will have major implications with who wins the Men's MITB Match.

Cody Rhodes vs. Dominik Mysterio

Cody Rhodes should cruise to the victory on this one... although Mami's outside interference is always a concern.  Dominik can't fight his own battles.  I wouldn't be surprised to see Cody's Wife Brandi Show up to this one to negate the outside interference.

Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler vs. Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez for Women's Tag Team Championships

Ronda and Shayna will most likely be victorious this night.  Raquel Rodriguez has been solid/Liv is great just think they need to keep the belts on the champs for the time being.

Gunther vs. Matt Riddle for Intercontinental Championship

This match was so last minute that there is no way that Riddle is beating Gunther.  Look for the belt to stay where it is, with or without Imperials help.

These again are just my guesses.  Nothing concrete behind them and have fun watching Saturday again at 3pm EST.

Let's Hear It...

Y'all have been on fire the past few weeks!  Monday, Zeek asked for a great one!  The song that takes it back to yester-year and how things used to be for a certain generation.  It wasn't a time.. It was a Different World.  The one-time American Idol Contestant dropped this gem.  

Tammy from Navarre, hearing the above WQMX Throwback asked if she could have a Throwback today.  This one is more than being in a relationship.  It's not the feeling, it's the good/bad and everything from this day forward.  Even if a relationship faulters, those involved still carry an attitude as you are my everything...  

Garth Brooks - She's Every Woman

 If you have a song for The WQMX "Throwback Song Of The Day" at 320-ish... call or text the Cricket Wireless Studioline 330-370-2000 after 3 or you can email me anytime at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .

Great Question?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Last week, my friend Jim let me know his WQMX 15 Minute Break was going to play.  He picked 4 great songs from 4 great artists.  Saturday at my Send Me Backstage Ticket Stop at Zombie Johns, I was asked what my 15 Minute Break would be?   I mean I am pickin' songs all the time and playin' them for you.  It was going to take a lot of thinkin'.  There are soooo many options but my right now in this moment, I think mine would be...

Jake Owen - Down to The Honkytonk

Eric Church - Springsteen

Jon Pardi - Night Shift

Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Fishin in The Dark

This is my right now.  What is your right now?  Join in the fun maybe Cherise will play your WQMX 15 Minute Break.

Oh well, get ready for a 'sold out' show on Saturday Night at Blossom!  

Congrats to Ashley W. who will be heading to see Eric Church.

Throwback with a Meaning

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

June 21st, has a special meaning for a certain song...  There is a documentary on Neflix "It All Begins With A Song: The Story of Nashville Songwriters."   It is a few years old.  Where if you would like to dig in deeper on the story it is amazing.  The documentary hits on various songs from country, rock pop really all genres.  The writers who wrote this song have a very interesting back story. 

The story comes about from Paul Monti's son Jared.  It began with a line from an interview one of the writers heard.  It was written, a demo made and an artist was picked out...  The writers after the song went to #1 they wanted to play it for the father of the fallen soldier.  There are a lot of coincidences with this song.  Like it was written on the same day the solider passed 2 years prior. That day was June 21st. 

I've only watched the documentary once.  The date stuck with me... June 21st.  

The writers have told this story many times.  The documentary is good with a number of country artists.  Maybe worth a watch.  Here is the story from one of the writers below and part of the documentary.

Dad's Day

As a dad, there is no better day in the world.  You could get me a tie, a beer, a tuxedo t-shirt.   Maybe the best thing in my life would be to play catch with my son, Killian.   Throwing the ball, throwing batting practice, heading to the batting cages... really any of it is calming to me.  

I love my son, baseball and the outdoors for me...  I know The Country Fest was this week.   I saw a  lot of multi-generational families in the crowds.   Thank you for that.   As a dad though...   I think there are a few songs that really hit home for being that dad... or fatherly-figure in someones life that draws or deserves your attention.  Happy Father's Day to all the dads, grandpas, steps, fosters, uncles and various fatherly figures who stepped in.   We appreciate you.   I appreciate these songs on Father's Day...

Did They Get It Right?

So today, The Cleveland Browns did a thing. 

They decided this to be their New Dawg Pound Logo. 

There are apparently 8 tributes to the team and city in the new logo (below).  What do you think?   

Most listeners enjoyed it today, when asked.  Some loved it.   The other option was more cartoony which one listener described.. as what they wanted.  

I think this one is going to look great on a shirt, someone said on the field?  Another asked if it would be on the Helmet?  

I don't know the intentions with the logo at this time.  It is a great looking logo and think the team will rep it well.  

Now who is getting the first tattoo of it?  Or covering up their Brownie The Elf one...
