Well most people who are WWE Fans were excited for Monday Night Raw because of Randy Orton, CM Punk and all these old faces returning in-ring.  

In the Front Row sitting ringside sat a familiar country boy...

Just so happened he pushed and shoved Dominik Mysterio and helped out Orton on his return...  Guess Randy Orton just "Needed A Favor"!

Survivor Series 2023 is Saturday! 

The WWE after keeping straps on champions for way too long like Roman Reigns, Gunther and The USO's.... are now spinning the gang mentality of the 90's NWO, DX and others to see what sticks against the wall.   I hope it ends with Survivor Series but not counting on it.  

The Judgement Day, Bloodline, LWO, Damage CTRL are all ganged up.

This could TURN out to hold a bunch of different TURNING Storylines...

Like how about Drew McIntyre does an about face on the Judgement Day...  Jey Uso is also a turn character but seems too close to his last one.

Randy Orton's Return will be great but "The Viper" sometimes doesn't play well with others.   Rumors of CM Punk returning to the WWE are interesting but hope it doesn't happen.

As one of the big Premium Events... Survivor Series has a lot of fun possibilities!

Matches Scheduled:

Men's War Games:  Cody Rhodes, Sami Zayn, Jey Uso, Seth Rollins and supposedly Randy Orton vs. The Judgment Day (Finn Balor, Dominik Mysterio, JD McDonagh, Drew McIntyre and Damian Priest)

This could be the match of the night.  Cage matches can drag out but there will be some craziness.  With Rhea Ripley occupied with Zoey Stark there maybe some other interesting alignments that are set into place.  Like Jimmy Uso or ???  I think the team of Rhodes, Zayn, Uso, Rollins and Orton will pull it out... 

Women's War Games:  Charlotte Flair, Bianca Belair, Shotzi, and Becky Lynch vs. Damage CTRL (Bayley, Kairi Sane, Asuka, and Iyo Sky) 

This one should go to Flair, Belair, Shotzi and Lynch but I am guessing that Damage CTRL will work out a way to get the Win.  While setting the other team at eachother's throats till the next big event....

Women's World Championship Match: Zoey Stark vs. Rhea Ripley

Don't think Rhea is losing the belt this night or any other night till one of her old rivals steps up.

Intercontinental Championship:  The Miz vs. Gunther

Gunther is not my favorite but he does sit in the good graces of the WWE higher ups.  I would love to see The Miz shock the world but for some reason Gunther is shooting for a record with the IC Championship.  To me he is no Honky Tonk Man.

Carlito vs. Santos Escobar

This one is going to be weird.  To put Escobar over as a Heel I would say he needs to start beating people.   Carlito spits in the face of people who don't want to be cool.  So at least he can spit in Escobar's Face.   Just not sure he is walking out winner.   I will say Carlito wins.

Remember these are just my personal thoughts.  Bet with your wallets and not with your hearts.  Enjoy the Survivor Series Saturday Night.  

I put these out the Wednesday before WWE Premium Events.  May all your favorite Superstars Win...  

As the Browns and Cleveland Sports Teams have been battling weather for what seems like forever during football, baseball and any other season.   
The answer has always been a dome.  Well DOME This! 

Why aren't sports arenas, stadiums and even homes like this???

Those sunny and wintery days wouldn't really matter anymore...   
GAME ON!!!!

No matter if the Roof is on or off....

The roof folds into the scoreboard ?

With Thanksgiving fast approaching, you may have the problem that I have with guests.

They feel bad for your dogs when they give the guest "that face".  Or in my families case... "any face". 

I love when guests come to visit for the holidays.  Thanksgiving is one of my favorites.  Lot of cooking, great food and plenty of clean-up.

The thing is with pets... The guests leave and the clean-up could be a lot longer and disgusting with the pets.

They do not process human food like humans do.  So when they give you those eyes give them a petting or a toy...  It will pay off in the end.

One holiday someone brought donut holes to decorate a dessert.  There were 24 total.  5 made it onto the dessert plate and my dog ate the rest of the bag.  19 donut holes for a little dog????

Dog Friendly Thanksgiving Items:  Carrots, Celery, Sweet Potatoes, Green Beans, Apples, and Pumpkin (the pack pumpkin... not pumpkin pie mix).  And remember these items should be given unseasoned and maybe even uncooked depending on the dog...

Undog Friendly Thanksgiving Items: (Some of these are toxic to dogs and other pets.) Onions, Leeks, Ham, Turkey Bones, Casseroles, Garlic, Grapes, Stuffing, Turkey Skin, Corn on the Cob.  

Remember good rule of thumb is just keep your pets on their regular food and diet...  some things will fall on the floor, some pets take things off the table... Keep an eye on family members dropping and feeding dogs and pets toxic and lethal foods.  If they are not a pet owner they may not know... or they just might be trying to win over their favorite 4-leggeds.  And it may save you a lot of clean-up and a huge vet bill or worse...  Have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving.   Here is a More Indepth List - Click Here.
