WWE ELIMINATION CHAMBER 2026: BOOS IN THE DANHAUSEN

 With everything going on in the world, I felt really down enough to not do this, however I decided to keep going in reviewing wwe...though I feel this new Era is going to be nothing but Triple H's World View.

Rhea Ripley won the Women's Elimination Chamber. She will be the one to face Jade Cargill at Wrestlemania 42. Kiana James despite having no chance, and was thought to be the one to eat the first pin, made good use of the Main Event exposure tonight. Great opening match.

We have a new Women's Intercontinental Champion, after nearly a decade out of the ring, AJ Lee in her Adopted Home city of Chicago, made Becky lynch tap after Becky tries to Cheat to win at the expense of Senior Female Referee, Jessica Carr. This was a real feel good moment. 

This close to wrestlemania, especially when the company are hedging their bets on Punk vs Reigns, they were never going to Change the belt before April, and Especially not in the Champion's home city.  With that said, CM Punk and Finn Balor didn't phone this in. After the match,  Finn was Gracious in defeat, as AJ Lee came out to celebrate with her husband. 

The reveal of the Mystery Box was next and remember the adage of whoever comes out of a Box is instantly over...well it wasn't Chris Jericho thank goodness...but it was something alright. As The reveal was Former Aew Comedy Jobber Danhausen, who had a dance routine with Dancing girls a big entrance,  a popcorn fart of a firework and the lights when out and whole display was gone, with the commentary aghast and the Crowd confused.

The enviability of L***n P**l one day being World Champion makes me want to retch. But for now, enjoy the Familiar Comfort of Randy Orton going to try to become A 18 time World champion before his retirement is something I can get behind, All courtesy of a double bluff by the masked man, who this time was Seth Rollins.

Confirmed matches at Wrestlemania 42

WWE CHAMPIONSHIP-DREW MCINTYRE VS RANDY ORTON 

WORLD'S CHAMPIONSHIP-CM PUNK VS ROMAN REIGNS

RAW WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP-RHEA RIPLEY VS JADE CARGILL. 

And that will do it for this Post.

Until MLW drops Fusion episodes, there will be no Wrestling posts til Mania next month. Tomorrow over at Bogger Box Office, I will unleash the review of the Worst Irish Film ever made! And a new Readers Poll. If you would like to follow me on X, you can find me @RealEnli

TASTE TEST 2K26: PRINGLES MYSTERY FLAVOUR-FALLOUT 76

 ...And like I said yesterday,  we are not done with taste tests. This Shouldn't take too long as we only have one thing to Discuss.

Following last year's Collaboration with Super Mario Brothers, Pringles has now Joined Forces with The Fallout Franchise.

Now I'm out of my depth here, I'm Afraid.

I never enjoyed Shooter video games.  I preferred Fighting games and RPGs. And as I got older, While I haven't abandoned Games completely, I prefer these days to watch let's plays.

I also know Fallout 76 was adapted into a Show on Amazon Prime. I only pay for Netflix so my Knowledge on Fallout apart from Wikipedia is slim.

With that said I Doubt a game based on An Alternative post Nuclear war Nevada is hardly the place to find ingredients for this flavour. But first, the Rundown:

PRINGLES MYSTERY FLAVOUR-FALLOUT 76

Packaging: Silver,  which guess they are using exclusively for Mystery Flavours with an open vault hatch door with a question mark on it. The game's logo is underneath.

Calories count: 157 calories in a 30g serving. Item Contains 5 and a half servings. Item weighs 165g

Flavour: It makes no Sense! When I think of Franchises based on Survival and post Nuclear war, you think of Food you COULD Eat In a Situation like that. Beef Jerky, Tins of Stew, Corned Beef, Government Cheese, Rations of some sort. Not CHEESY GARLIC BREAD! 

Did Pringles even understand the assignment? I had to Google search Fallout Garlic bread to see if it circles back to Fallout in some way. I checked and there isn't any in game item that directly links Garlic bread to Fallout! You can cultivate Mutated Wheat, but not directly Garlic Bread. 

Hell,  I know nothing about Fallout and just named 5 things that A) could be a flavour Crisp and B) make Thematic Sense. And they blew it!

TASTE TEST 2K26: MINECRAFT, VOLCANIX,MAGNUM SIGNATURE LA PASTICHE & CORNETTO MAX HAZELNUT AND CHOCOLATE

 "Who are you?"

My name is....

Eamonn Bermingham, Ireland's Journeyman Reviewer, back on the trail on his third Try for the hardest Graps, and the tastiest Grub to go along with it !

So it's time for the taste test as Heartbeat International has this year has graced us with not 3 BUT FOUR new Items, So let's get into it!

Actually I call them Heartbeat International,  but this maybe this'll be the last time you'll see that Logo, as on the packaging for contact number is the new Blanket name for all the ice cream brands under Unilever's Banner-Magnum Ice Cream Company, whether or not the rumours of a cookie Cutter brand in every country with regional market ice-cream obliterated.  We could have the return of Super split (Creamsicle) at the expense of the maxi Tub and the Hazelbrook Farm Vanilla Block? You better not!

MINECRAFT BAR

Please Ignore the fact Steve is in the photo used.  I guess they use both Main characters for the packaging 

Packaging: Metallic Teal Sky Over Metallic Green Grass. Picture of Item Next to Minecraft's Default Female Character Alex,  at the Bottom we are told of a scan Code for a Free in game item for Anyone who Actually plays.

Calorie Count: 73 calories in 46g Item

Flavour: Green Food Colouring and Vanilla Colouring "Grass" over a Layer of Chocolate "Dirt" layer, which Sits on Vanilla Ice-cream "Ore" with Blue Colour Rice ball "Diamonds" in a sliced version of Big Bite

Taste: Had to Consume Quickly Because it melts as soon as you look at it.

Despite the Third Party Money, once again like the movie,  the Ice cream invocation is every bit the disappointment. Eating this Green food colouring vanilla and chocolate mishmash invokes Memories of Irish Shops who sell "Irish Cones" by spilling Goodall's Green into the machine. So eating this doesn't bring up, going to Minecraft to Slay The Enderman, no it drums up let's stand on a street, in the rain, looking at Tractors pull a trailer filled with Rugby Players in Drag!

VOLCANIX

Packaging: Black with item in centre. Cross section of Item shows item is filled with 5 different layers of flavours and textures-in keeping with the volcano theme, Caramel pieces and sauce spew like lava and volcanic debris.

Calorie Count: a Sturdy 231 calories in a 75g item.

Flavour: choc ice which Contains Biscuit pieces in outer layer with vanilla Ice-cream that hides a 3 layered core of chewy Caramel balls, Caramel sauce and chocolate Ice-cream.

Taste: First it smells amazing: if there is one thing Heartbeat International did right, it's Dark chocolate. Now to the first bite, which uncovered a layer of Caramel balls which leads to some falling to the floor like ball bearings. Second bite reveals a layer of balls held in the sauce layer. A third bite causes the ball layer to vanish, changing the flavour profile. The next and final bite are the remaining Caramel, chocolate mouse like ice cream and Signature vanilla. An adventurous ice cream that changes its flavour profile with every bite- and each experience is delicious. 

It took me two days to get this out, so the following two tests are In fact made a day later.

(24 Hours And a Balanced Breakfast Later)

MAGNUM LA-PISTACHE SIGNATURE 

Packaging: Item is resting on chocolate Brown,  white and Clover panels with Pistachio on the Clover panels.

Calorie Count: 233 in a 70g Item

Flavour: Pistachio Ice-cream with Pistachio core covered in Pistachio chocolate shell half dipped in milk chocolate with mixed nut nibs in shell.

Taste: The chocolate Shell is so thick, one bite causes that bitten side's chocolate to fall off from the smooth Ice-cream. I'm confused to why there is a core of the exact same flavour of the Ice-cream, but the milk chocolate and Mixed nuts does give some variety. Personally I think Dubai Chocolate is overrated, and Magnum has released far more interesting flavours.

CORNETTO MAX HAZELNUT & CHOCOLATE 

Packaging: Chocolate Brown with hazelnut photos, and white and gold logos

Calorie Count: The Heftiest Count this year-279 in a 82g Cone including Cones

Flavour: Exactly what it says on the tin.  Chocolate and Hazelnut Ice-cream filled wafer core topped with Caramel sauce, and topped with a hazelnut and Chocolate disc.

Taste: Disc when Bitten into doesn't break like solid chocolate, but instead melt into a blob of Nutella (Which makes sense since Ferrero is also a Unilever Brand) remnants of the disc slides on a sea of Caramel, causing attempts to eat the whole disc a messy one. Polishing off the disc and sauce leaves only the icecream, which if it was still just vanilla, wouldn't be anything to write home about.

And we are not even done yet! Join me this time tomorrow, when we crawl to the surface with Pringles, as we review Pringles Fallout Mystery Flavour. 

MLW LUCHA APOCALYPTO 2026: And Here is where if I would put my Review of Lucha Apocalypto...IF I HAD ONE!

(LAST WEEK IN A TAPE DELAYED, AND DEFINITELY NOT A CEASE AND DESIST ORDERED BATTLE RIOT...

The New Year is a Catalyst for change, to grow, to grow the Hell Up already, and stop dressing like Marty McFly already. And in a surprising turn Kushida won the Middleweight belt as a face with the loyal crowd behind him, only to aid Contra...as the mark crowd Cheered.

As long as Kushida changes his ring gear, that'll be great! 

But the big Story was the Main Event Namesake match, The Forty man Battle Riot. After a video where Mads Krule Kruger disobeyed his orders from "The Serpent" to focus on his world title, rather than his Contra Brethren, when mlw management made this match for the World's title upon Krule's entry. His fate was sealed. And All members of Contra would dismantle their leader. Including a Big Fat Guy in Combat trousers and a mask similar to Kruger's who stuffed Kruger in the body bag. Could this man be "The Serpent"? Or is he just another new Cog in the war machine? With Kruger done, it was all there for Killer Kross to Run it from coast to coast as the first entry. After the match, he dedicated his win to not only his wife, Scarlett Borduex, but also to his mother, who is in remission from cancer.)

As Such, here is the Champion's list as of last week.

List of champions CHANGES IN CAPITALS!

WORLD'S KILLER KROSS 

Openweight Blue Panther

MIDDLEWEIGHT KUSHIDA 

Tag The Skyscrapers Dijak and Bishop Dyer 

Featherweight Shoko Nakajima 

...and this is where things get Annoying, for weeks I have being checking if MLW was going to pull another one with a another tape delay. They didn't...they pulled a DIFFERENT fast One! I am writing this on Saturday Morning GMT, 20 Hours Before the show in Cicero, IL, It was announced that it is now A tv taping in advance of Fusion's return. Good For them, and for me, to advance to 600 posts earlier, but come on! Two live shows pulled in the space of a fortnight. 

So this is were we stand, Major League Wrestling,  you won a Purported 20 Million Dollar Lawsuit against wwe...USE IT TO HIRE A PRESS AGENT TO UPDATE YOUR EVENT WIKI, USE THAT MONEY TO HIRE SOMEONE TO PUT YOUR YOUTUBE PREMIERES DAYS BEFORE LAUNCH, NOT HOURS! AND HIRE SOMEONE TO ANSWER YOUR TWITTER!

OK, Good talk, glad to get that out of my system. I can now review the next Live MLW Show without holding a grudge.

I maybe blowing this out of proportion, but I am more disappointed in myself that I can't give you what you Came For AGAIN!

Join me for Elimination Chamber first tuesday of March. But Before that we have the Ice cream review on the bubble all I need is the Minecraft Ice cream Bar to launch in Ireland, and we will be all set!
