Last week we discussed the history and a tutorial of Pro-Wrestling, and more specifically the history of the WWE, and how it go to here. Well, this last week, we watched some Matched from Wrestlemania 35, and my mom has some thoughts, and I've got some explaining to do. Spoiler, she liked some of them.
For those interested, WWE offers a 1 Month Free trial for their WWE Network: which host all their Pay-Per-View events, Lots of historical wrestling shows and matches, newer episodes of Raw and Smackdown a few weeks later, and some original material, along with some of my favorite material, behind the scenes.
