I stopped Peaky Blinders at season 3...
I may continue someday but it's honestly not good for binge watching because there isn't much in terms of overarching plot...
Better to watch each season separately which is what I've decided to do

WWE RAW REVIEWS RECAPS AND REACTIONS

Stillmatic
WWE celebrated John Cena this week. The party resembled a nice trip down memory lane, with several segments dedicated to the PhD in Thuganomics, including different wrestlers referencing his history or words in their promos. That was a nice touch that showed how influential Peacemaker is within whatever halls WWE superstars roam on a given week.
The ceremony culminated with Cena addressing the thousands in attendance and the millions watching at home. The only reason I’m putting it here is because it was damn good as Cena always is on the mic, and the guy’s shadow looms over everything WWE does. Then, Now, and Forever.
Cena spoke from the heart, thanked the fans for keeping it real with him, and begged them to always keep it real with everyone. If they like something, let them know. If they hate something, let them know. The relationship he has with fans shaped him into a better man, a better husband, and a better professional. There are very few people in all of wrestling who always appear genuine. Eddie Kingston is one of them, Jon Moxley is another. But that’s something Cena has in spades. No matter the era, no matter the situation, he always makes the audience believe. That’s the most important aspect in this thing of ours, so a bunch of people in WWE should take notes.
Cena dropped some news as well: He plans to wrestle again. And it won’t be for just “one more match.” He doesn’t know when—the world needs a lot of peace right now—but it will happen. Cena interacted with Theroy earlier in the show, lending Creedence to the rumor these tow are set to tango in August. Maybe that’s Cena’s next appearance. Maybe it’s not.
Whenever we see him again, make sure to cherish the guy who truly gave everything to this business and its fans.

The Rest
Picture Me Rollin’
WWE is telling a good story with Becky Lynch. Becky’s slump since losing at WrestleMania took her to some dark places. Funny places too, but mostly dark. This week, Becky faced five other women for the last spot in the women’s Money in the Bank match. Would she falter? Would she destroy the competition?
The answer, in short, is yes. I liked Becky’s aggression to start the match. She went after everyone in her path, doing whatever in her power as a woman on a mission. Xia Li? Pinned her. Nikki A.S.H.? Submitted her shortly after pinning Xia. Clearly the star of the match, Becky raised everyone else’s game as well. Specifically Doudrop. If someone else dominated as much as Becky, it was Doudrop. She dominated everyone whenever the action went outside of the ring, and she eliminated Shayna Baszler and Tamina back-to-back.
This was always coming down to Becky and Doudrop. Becky, in vain, attempted the Manhandle Slam a couple times. It wasn’t until Doudrop finally made a mistake that Becky capitalized off someone else’s follies rather than making her own.
Doudrop hoisted Becky onto the top turnbuckle, lost her positioning, and fell victim to the Manhandle Slam.
Becky is going to Money in the Bank.
Good main event showcasing just great Becky and Doudrop are together, and a nice chapter to Becky’s “comeback” story.

One More Chance
Battle Royales are a mess, so don’t look for a recap here on the blow by blow. I will talk about the Final Four. Riddle, AJ Styles, Nakamura, and Miz. Now, the idea here is the winner gets a spot in the Money in the Bank match. Great, makes sense. The caveat here is one of these men cannot challenge for WWE’s big championship so long as Roman Reigns has the belt.
And yet, Riddle won. The audience popped for it and it was a great finish between he and Miz, but I think he’s the wrong cat for this spot. Give it to someone without that stipulation because it increases the suspense going into the Money in the Bank match. Maybe WWE surprises me and Brock Lesnar defeats Roman...maybe. But the odds of that are pretty slim based on recent history. Meaning, in my mind, that’s one person in this match who has no shot at that briefcase on July 2, 2022.

O.P.P.
The Street Profits are in their heads. Even after Angelo Dawkins’ win over Jimmy Uso last week, they’re not quite convinced they have what it takes to defeat The Usos. I like that angle a lot. Despite their list of accomplishments—which John Cena so helpfully laid out—they’re shook when it comes to Jimmy and Jey. That means another solo victory over a member of the Bloodline meant more than just “another win.” With all that in mind, we got Montez Ford vs. The Man Formerly Known as Main Event Jey Uso.
Look, there are only so many ways I can tell you these two put on a good match. Was it great? No. But it was good because The Profits and The Usos work well together in any configuration. The best part was the ending, where Dawkins ensured his partner got a fair shot at going to the pay window, taking out Jimmy before he mucked up the works. Montez, in another ridiculous display, damn near touched the briefcases above the ring with a Frog Splash.
Insanity.
Montez picked up the W, which probably means a loss is in their future. Right? I’m not so sure. The Usos are the Barcelona to the Profits’ Real Sociedad. Every little victory counts, so maybe it’s the beginning of the end for Roman’s cousins.

Balls and My Word
During that Battle Royale, Miz cost AJ Styles in typical Miz fashion. The coward faked an injury and waited until the perfect moment to eliminate Styles. That’s why during a Miz interview segment, AJ rushed to the ring like a kid towards Toys R’ Us in 1993 for Power Rangers.
What followed was a solid bout that ended the minute Miz walked out. Perfect for his character, Miz left the match without hesitation, giving AJ the count out victory.
And I’m okay with this. AJ and Miz isn’t something you blow off in a random spot on a random Monday night. There’s more story here and it deserves a bigger stage. AJ needs a challenge and chasing Miz for a few weeks until SummerSlam sounds like the right obstacle.
Also? Corey Graves has it on good authority that Miz has gigantic balls.

Real Big
Carmella and Bianca Belair’s “face to face” segment this week left me rather bored. Bianca called Mella talented but insecure. The EST says Mella is too focused on her looks to realize her potential. Okay...there’s some truth there. But, again, the match is in a few days, so adding in this portion of the story at this point is moot. Mella came to the ring dressed like a Bob Fosse backup dancer, explaining how she’s anything but insecure. She’s smart. And that’s why she’ll beat Bianca etc. etc. you know how this goes.
Carmella then fronted like she was leaving the ring, only to deliver a kick to the champ everyone saw coming. Including Bianca who not only caught the kick, but kept looking out the corner of her eye.
The entire segment was just a little too predictable with no real immediacy. Meh.

I Dare You
Prior to their match, Liv Morgan told Alexa Bliss she will not only win Money in the Bank in Las Vegas, but she’s beating her this week. Alexa basically said “nah.”
Well, Alexa was wrong. This was a fun match between two tag partners who realize it’s every woman for themselves when the big championship is on the line. Liv reversed Alexa’s DDT and got the W with a quick roll up. Nothing but respect between the ladies after the match, friendly competition and all that jazz. But we’ll see if they maintain that civility when the briefcase is on the line.

Can I Live?
Bobby Lashley dealt with WWE’s perpetual bad guys, Alpha Academy. Otis and Chad Gable faced Lashley in a handicap match with Theory playing outside special referee. The match existed to get more heat on Theory, which I’m not sure is necessary at this point. But, hey, Chad tapped to the Hurt Lock and Theory ran off after getting in several cheap shots on his Money in the Bank opponent.

Patiently Waiting
Cody Rhodes interview! The doctors tell him nine months recovery! He’ll congratulate Seth Rollins if Seth wins! He hyped everyone in the Money in the Bank match! Back to rehab!

Raw wasn’t exactly go-home worthy this week, but it wasn’t awful either. The Cena celebration was a great touch, and Raw’s side of the Money in the Bank card is finally finished. The biggest knock? No Elrod, Elias, and Ezekiel vs. Kevin Owens match. That’s sinful to deprive us of that.

Grade: B-

Wanda isn't multiversal.

For you to be Universal you need to be able to destroy or create an entire universe.

Look at the God of Abraham, he is universal because he can destroy and create an entire universe.

Going by your logic, multiversal Wanda can just tell God, what mouth?, and defeat him.

An example of a true multiversal being is Zeno from Dragon ball, he erased over 5 universe, along with the Gods in it.

You say the God of Abraham is what?

which reply are you waiting for when the post you quoted answers that question

You can feel a Multiversal threat or presence yes but that's a very vague way of characterizing what a Multiversal threat is.
Throw more light on your train of thought.

TV/Movies › Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Purpl3: 8:24pm On Jun 27, 2022

GRIMMJOE:
Being able to destroy multiple universe, it's as simple as that.

According to Marvel Cosmology, a universe contains Midgard(Earth), Asgard and 7 other realms.

Midgard contains two million to two trillion galaxy, each galaxy contains 800 million to 3.2 trillion planet, and our Earth is one of them.

That's how big a single realm is, and there are 9 that makes up Marvel universe.

A multiversal threat is no small feat.

No one is saying that it's a small feat.
Problem is that you're looking at it from only one angle.
Do you know that if a character can create more than 1 universe that character is automatically Multiversal?
Do you also know that a character that can neither create nor destroy more than 1 universe but scales up to another character that can do all that In a fight is also Multiversal?

How do you think Dr Doom became a Multiversal threat in the Avengers comics?
How about Cosmic King Thor?

for the record, if Emperor Ultron or Wanda were Multiversal,their presence would be felt across the entire multiverse not just the current universe they were in which wasn't the case.

MJBOLT, how do you characterize a Multiversal threat?

TV/Movies › Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Purpl3: 7:19pm On Jun 27, 2022

MJBOLT:
using that logic then The Watcher is Multiversal alongside America Chavez,that's not how power scaling works.
The IG is Universal in power,so how is Emperor Ultron now Multiversal with it??if he was Multiversal,he would destroy multiple universes all at once which he couldn't and he was stopped by people who don't have Multiversal feats.

Supreme Strange is Universal at best while the rest of the guardians are barely planetary in power yet they stopped a supposedly Multiversal threat

This arguement is about to go the same way it did early this morning so let's leave it man...
Your ideas on what a Multiversal threat is will clearly be unwavered.

TV/Movies › Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Purpl3: 6:57pm On Jun 27, 2022

MJBOLT:
Emperor Ultron doesn't have any Multiversal feats,same with Supreme Strange.
If he was Multiversal,he wouldn't travel universe by universe to cause damage,he would do it all at once.

Lol...the ability for him to travel through universes while wrecking havoc everywhere without stopping is what makes him Multiversal

I don't remember any universe being destroyed in the beginning of that film and if we use that logic then Emperor Ultron from What If is Multiversal which isn't true

That Zombie Strange 's universe was destroyed before America portaled them out and Emperor Ultron was Multiversal same as that Strange supreme.

Which Nexus being was introduced in Loki...I know of Nexus events...

But we've seen MOM and the witch doesn't have a Multiversal feat...She did the things she did because of the Darkhold, things Strange could and did replicate (Dreamwalking) if he had the Darkhold.
Dark Strange destroyed his Universe for messing with the Darkhold, Dark Strange isn't Multiversal...The explanation was incursions occur when people mess in a different universe...Two universes bleed together and one is destroyed...The Illuminati Universe was going to get destroyed if both Strange and Wanda continued messing around in it...No other Universe they weren't part of would have been threatened....
Wanda is a Multiversal threat in the sense that her fanatic need to be a mother would kill Universes if she kept on dreamwalking in various verses to get Chavez. Without the Darkhold giving her spells/amp to summon magical creatures and dreamwalk in different Universes, Wanda can't replicate those things..
A Multiversal being would be Arishem.....Pure Multiversal A.p and durability...

We just going round an round in circles.
Let's just agree to disagree.

I nearly banged my head when I watched Thor: The Dark World again. I wouldn't have exaggerated Wanda's abilities the way I did if I had remembered specifics of what I had watched. Oh well, I suppose I'll soon learn to forgive myself. Malekith was using the reality stone itself to perform some major reality warping when Thor proceeded to stab him with a dagger, the peak of Wanda's powers can't do more than that.

Wanda cannot defeat Thor

Exactly what I was saying

Nexus beings haven't been introduced in the MCU yet... WandaVision hinted at her being a Nexus by being able to draw power using Chaos magic. By feats, nothing the witch has done places her as universal, not to talk of Multiversal..

That means you didn't watch Loki.

In that same WandaVision Agatha said that if she really tapped into her Chaos magic she would be a Multiversal threat which she did In MOM.
I don't know which other feats you want her to do given her power sets that will make you admit it.

Anybody being in the wrong Universe running amok would cause an incursion after a while..Dark Strange destroyed his Universe for messing up this way...That doesn't make them Multiversal....As Kaycee said, Multiversal or Universal has to do with Ap or durability...She didn't threaten the multiverse, she was specifically a threat to the universes she was dreamwalking in...

You know Scarlett is a nexus being right?
I don't know how else to explain this to you so perhaps you should look it up. MCU made her Multiversal and they knew exactly what they were doing.

She isn't even Universal..

Town level by feats, Country level if we stretch it...

What do you understand by someone being a Multiversal threat?
How can you call what she did in DS2 country level when literally the whole of existence was threatened If not that she was able to see reason In the end and defeat herself do you think there would still be an "MCU"?
