The night I became a Wrestling fan

It all started on a cool night back on January 18th, 2008. It was in the middle of the school holidays and it was my last year in primary. Like any other kid, I liked to stay up late and watch TV. This was also back when my family had Sky, I was surfing through the channels, bored out of my mind until I came across a channel known as The Box or as it's now known, Sky 5.

The channel included The Simpsons, CSI, Pawn Stars and in my case WWE Wrestling. From what I remember, every Friday night they would always air WWE Raw from 8:30 - 10:00 ( Back when they were only on for two hours)





Anyway, I came across Raw during its main even which featured Randy Orton facing Jeff Hardy. At the time I didn't think much about wrestling and thought It was a waste of time, but since nothing else good was on, I decided to watch it and I'm glad I did because I saw something truly amazing.

It was at the end of the main event where the match was taking place at the stage ramp for the wrestler's entrances. After placing Randy on a table near the ramp, Jeff Hardy climbed on top of the stage and used his signature Swanton Bomb to land on his opponent. The match ended in a no contest, but that moment where Jeff jumped off the stage and did what he did, I immediately become hooked as a fan.

At that time I never knew wrestlers would do that, which I thought was really cool. Next week I tuned in to see what happened to Jeff and Orton, plus watching other wrestling matches in between and just falling in love with the product. Although I don't watch it today, just keep up to date online.

 Nowadays I watch old WWE, WCW & ECW PPVs, shows and matches, back when wrestling was really good. But January 18th, 2008 was when I became a wrestling fan and I'm damn proud of it.

Call Of Lag! Why Do We Play It?

Call Of Duty is one of the highest selling video games of all time and making over ten thousand dollars in the process. The game was initially a computer game made first by Infinity War in 2003, before it started to branch out onto gaming consoles and both Activision and Treyarch taking over the franchise

Don't get me wrong. This is not a dig or a blog hating on the franchise since I've recently become a fan after buying their new game - Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4. I love the game, but we can't deny that this game has a ridiculous amount of lag in it

For example when your playing in multiplayer, you run around the corner and see an enemy. You immediately start shooting at him or her but nothing happens to them, and they end up killing you with one bullet. Now that's lag

Or when you get stuck in a particular area and can't move around until the other team kills you? That's lag

So why do we play this game with all the lag in it? Is it to feel the experience of actually being in a war? Is it just about shooting and killing the other person? Or maybe there's no reason other than the fact it's a great video game

Regardless of the inconsistencies, I'm still a fan and will continue to play the game, but Treyarch really needs to up their game and create better and realistic servers. Because if you're in a real war and you shoot at someone, that person is either injured or dead in real life and there is no lag
