Belated National Pet Day

This is Blue!  He is everyone's best friend.  He likes short walks, all meals, snoring and being the life of the Paw-rty!  

He had a tough life in Texas but was rescued by my wife...  He and his sister Moolah are definitely spoiled.

Blue loved long walks but he now like 15 years old so he has upped his walk game with a pet stroller.   

He did his initial walk/ride the other day he looks like he isn't having fun but he was able to go on a full walk and see the sights and smell the smells...

Hopefully you and your pups, cats or whatever pet is part of your family enjoyed National Pet Day. 

Love, spoil, adopt, foster, and donate to your shelters and humane societies.

Beach Boys Grammy Salute

I can't remember who my first concert was actually...   It was either the Oakridge Boys, Huey Lewis & The News or The Beach Boys.  But it was one of them....

The beach boys had sooo many hits..  Some of our Country Artists belted out Beach Boy's Songs in Tribute last night for the Grammy's Salute to the Group.   

The show was actually shot the same week as The Grammy Awards in February.   

Little Big Town sang Help Me Rhonda

LeAnne Rimes - Caroline, No

and Lady A sang Surfer Girl.

Here is the Preview for the show...

"WQMX Not Eggs-actly Scotty McCreery!"

With Easter Weekend upon us and Scotty McCreery Tickets for his MGM Northfield Park Show going onsale this Friday Morning at 10am.

When they say Ben how are you going to get these in the fans hands?  My ears perked up... and I will give your Bunny Ears a workout.  See who our McCreery Eggs-perts are...

This week, I will play 2 Scotty McCreery Songs in the WQMX Not Eggs-actly.  The reason it's Not Eggs-actly Scotty McCreery Songs is because it will be faster, reversed or you never know... I will "scramble" them up.   Keep those bunny ears listen for the bouncing Scotty McCreery Songs tomorrow at 4:45.  Good Luck!    

The details of WQMX Presale for Thursday from 10am - 10pm are coming. 

Here were today's songs but they did not sound like these...   That's All Yolks!  Have an 'Eggs-cellent Easter Weekend"...

Jimmie Goes Hollywood!

I hope you had a fun weekend and weren't without power.   Saturday after heavy winds and rain my power was out for a number of hours.  Then the line workers (Thank you so much for all you do!)...  Let There Be Light!   I ended up watching Wrestlemania all weekend.   Even if you are not a fan of wrestling.  Jimmie Allen went Hollywood at SoFi Stadium in front of 81K and some change...  Jimmie sang "America The Beautiful" on Night 2 of Mania.  

He did a great job singing as always but also got some great pictures:

Wrasslin' Wednesday

Well the biggest spectacle in Sports Entertainment is coming this weekend...   It's 2 Nights of jam packed matches April 1st and 2nd!  There is a taste of Cleveland as The Miz is your Mania Host.   Remember these are just my thoughts and predictions there is no truth behind these guesses.  Just my personal thoughts.   Enjoy Mania hope there are a lot of surprises!!!

The UNDISPUTED WWE UNIVERSAL CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH:

Roman Reigns vs Cody Rhodes

I think that Cody Rhodes will keep his streak going.  Eventhough Roman Reigns has held the belts forever.  It has been too long for me.  The fallout from The Head Of The Table losing poses more storylines and a way to give Roman a vacation if he wants/needs it.  Look for The Bloodline and Paul Heyman to interfere but maybe a former champ comes back to help out that would be a *pebble* in Roman's Plans...

SMACKDOWN WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH:

Charlotte Flair vs Rhea Ripley

This one I hate going against Charlotte but she has to admit Rhea is carrying a lot of matches not only in the Women's Division but also the Men's Division.  I think Rhea will end up dropping that ZERO Dom and pick up a belt that she deserves at Mania!

RAW WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH: 

Bianca Belair vs Asuka

Bianca is on another level.  Asuka is basically the only match for her since Becky has a tag title.  Asuka may pull out a disqualification or a count out.  If there is a finish to this match without interference then Bianca retains the belt.

WORST MATCH ON THE CARD:

Brock Lesnar vs Omos

I will say Brock wins even though MVP and a possible semi-reformed Hurt Business gets involved.

UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH:

Austin Theory vs John Cena

Everyother day I would John Cena wins hands down.  But I don't see him coming back to defend so much.  I see Austin Theory retaining somehow and if Cena wins then he will lose the gold on Raw the following night.

POSSIBLE BEST MATCH OF MANIA:

Logan Paul vs Seth Rollins

Rollins has gotten so many wrestlers over in the past year or so...  Must say Logan Paul pulling a full-time wrestling schedule is interesting.   I think Logan Paul wins and keeps building his persona.  I don't think he knocks Rollins out there is some underhanded tactic that makes the rivalry hang on.

6 WOMAN TAG TEAM MATCH: 

Becky Lynch, Lita and Trish Stratus  vs. Damage CTRL - Bayley, Dakota Kai and Iyo Sky  

I see this one with a heel turn.  Trish Stratus maybe going heel...  or Iyo Sky might branch out on her own.  The Tag Titles can't change hands so I hope Sasha Banks returns but probably won't.  

HELL IN A CELL MATCH:

Edge vs Finn Balor

The rivalry is stale think Finn wins with help.  I think we are in for a costume change in this one and might change the optics of the fiend.  But it is still the same.  I would have liked to see AJ Styles added to this match.  

FATHER - SON MATCH:

Dominik Mysterio vs Rey Mysterio

Classic take your belt off and teach your boy a lesson in talking back to his mother...  I hope Lela Mysterio gets after Rhea too...  causing Rhea to drop Dumb or I mean Dom...   I think Dom wins but it is far from clean.  

WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH:

The Usos vs Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn

This is the other option for Match of Mania.  It basically set up the whole event.  As long as Sami doesn't turn on KO or vice versa.  The Usos lose the titles and grab your popcorn and sit back for the possibilities of The Bloodline or lack thereof...  I only say this because Jey Uso has been put in a possibility to get a great push...  

FATAL 4-WAYS 

Chelsea Green & Sonya Deville vs Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez vs Natalya & Shotzi vs Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler

They are forced upon us with no real meaning.  I hope Liv & Raquel win but I think Ronda and Shayna will set up a Becky and Lita match-up for the Tag Titles in the future.

MEN'S FATAL 4-WAY TAG MATCH

Alpha Academy vs Braun Strowman & Ricochet vs The Street Profits vs Viking Raiders

I could careless as long as the Viking Raiders DO NOT WIN.  I will go with The Street Profits

INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP TRIPLE THREAT MATCH:

Gunther vs Drew McIntyre vs Sheamus

No matter who wins this will be the most damage done!  I like Drew McIntyre to win.  Although again maybe they want a (X) amount of days Champion.  Seems like the new thing these days.  I am rooting and thinking Drew will win.  

Again these are just my thoughts in no way shape or form do I have any insight into what will really happen.  If you are betting on these matches bet with your wallets... not with your heart... and by all means not with my predictions.  Hope you enjoy Wrestlemania on Saturday and Sunday Nights.  Thank you for checking in for Wrasslin Wednesday.  I put this out the Wednesday before the Premium WWE Events.
