*Disclaimer*

With NinetyforChill.com evolving into more than the rough draft blog for my primary blog, MainEventoftheDead.com needs a new place to test out the formatting of recent blogs. "Main Event of the Dead" is my screenplay about pro-wrestling and zombies. I have a movie website, so may as well have a wrestling site.

Spellbound: The Wizard and the Disgruntled's Real World Championships

*This blog post was started on November 2, 2022.

This blog post should serve as evidence as a proper, productive day. Oil change done, fat thawing out to fry up some wings therefore ending my four-day chicken fast, and my health benefits for the next year have been fulfilled. Hell, it seems I managed to stop Eva the Queen Kitty from licking her allergic wounds. What protein should she change to from chicken?

As I say that, she is taking another go at her scabby backside. It is like I am ironically writing that in to fruition.

If you want to know where my head is out, you best check out the blogs at MainEventOfTheDead.com. Hopefully, those rants will lead you to NinetyForChill: The Podcast.

But, with my Eva observation, I may as well bring up another coincidence. Driving to get my errands done, my iPhone decided to play Siouxsie and the Banshees instead of "Scream Drafts: High School Horror Mini Mega Draft". The song was "Spellbound". Spells are magic, and witches and wizards are masters of that. Here is hoping by the time I finish this post, the Disgruntled's Real World Championship maintains an association with wrestling's warlock. Otherwise, Alanis Morissette may as well have wrote this.

The Disgruntled's Current Real Champions (11/06/2022):

The 101st Disgruntled's Real Men's World Champion:
ROH World Champion Chris Jericho (3)
Reign began September 21, 2022.

So I had my issues getting back to the keyboard since the last Dynamite. My trivia excursion was a success on Thursday. As for Friday, it was difficult enough having the energy to make it to Rampage after the successful trivia night. Saturday was dedicated to paying my bills and then visiting my folks. That maybe a common theme with Mom heading to England, and Dad may enjoy the company.

After all of this, it is quite the relief from a blogger standpoint that Colt Cabana failed to defeat Jericho on Wednesday.

Do I have a bias against the WWE? Yes. If I did not, I would not have this blog maintain. AEW has had the best product from their inception until the Triple H regime took over. When I only have so much time to watch professional wrestling, do you think I would change my focus because Hunter is rearranging the board while maintaining the same pieces?

You can argue that Roman Reigns is currently the biggest star in the business. That is to WWE's detriment. He is rarely on TV and takes every other pay-per-view off. Turning him into a movie star will not help your company. WCW worked because of Hogan's failure.

Chris Jericho has defended his championship in less than two months enough times to equal half of Reign's challenges in the past two years. And with the number of defenses, he is the most active world champion.

You can say the AEW World Championship is more important, but it does not have the history of Ring of Honor and Moxley is focused on drama. This is a blog about praising wrestling over narrative. I am an indie wrestler. With a show a month, the wrestling better be good. Jericho is doing that biweekly and still delivers the drama.

We need some more photos of The Ocho


The 49th Disgruntled's Real Women's World Champion:
AEW World Champion
Thunder Rosa (Her reign began on March 16, 2022)


I first thought that I better declare an interim champion for this belt. Tony Khan fortunately did that for me.

It will be interesting to see how this resolves itself when she becomes healthy. The splintering of the locker-room may result in her failing to unify the championship. With few defenses, Bianca Belair might get to be the next champion, but with the lame Bayley feud, perhaps not. As for SmackDown, the ball was totally dropped on the Liv Morgan reign which a promoter cannot fail at putting over since Money in the Bank makes for otherwise undeserved reigns.

The 2nd Interim Disgruntled's Men's Champion:
IWGP World Heavyweight Champion
Switchblade Jay White (His reign began on June 12, 2022)


If Jericho were to lose to Sammy Guevara, this will be the guy to take the championship. New Japan makes defenses few, but he is showing up more than the Modern Poser Champion.

The Modern Poser Champion:
WWE Unified Universal Champion
Roman Reigns (His second reign began on August 20, 2020)

If you are not defending against AEW or NJPW wrestlers, how can you be the REAL champion?

The 151st Disgruntled's Real Tag Team World Champions:
WWE Unified Tag Team Champions
Jimmy & Jey Uso (Their second reign began on Jan. 5, 2022)


I for one am hoping that The New Day will continue as the longest reigning Tag Team Champions in the history of WWE, but that's neither here nor there...except for The Acclaimed.

The 163rd Unified Gnarly Men's Doubles World Champions:
Impact World Tag Team Champions
Heath & Rhino (Their 2nd reign began on 10/23/22)

I guess I will have to break down this lineage. These guys were able to make WWE TV center around them briefly, so one can imagine what they do for Impact.

The 162nd Unified Gnarly Men's Doubles Champions:
AJPW World Tag Team Champions Shotaro Ashino and Ryuki Honda
(Reigned from September 21, 2022 to October 23, 2022)

The 161st Unified Gnarly Men's Doubles Champions:
Shane Strickland and Keith Lee
(Reigned from August 27, 2022 to September 21, 2022)

The OCHO: The Real Secondary Champion:
ROH World Television Champion
Samoa Joe (His third reign began on April 25, 2022)


If you credit Triple H with anything, it is that they are turning the former Walter into a gatekeeper. AEW is currently trying to make big men look good with championships. Joe is excellent. Wardlow is green. The next champion seems fairly obvious. Too bad Survivor Series is not going to have champion versus champion to cement this. Seth Rollins versus Gunther is where the money is.

Here is hoping for a fun Full Gear. MJF would be as valid a champion as Roman Reigns. FTR will need to lose some gold soon. In the meantime, I guess I have the Women's Tag Team and Six-Man Tag Team Championships to determine. There are so many movies to watch, those DRCW Belts may have genuine lineages before I get around to them.
