TASTE TEST 2K21: CADBURY'S DAIRY MILK INVENTOR BARS YEAR 2

 Hoping this review finds you well. I'm taking a small moment of time out of Personal Time to Review 3 Bars of Chocolate up to Public Vote, and though this is my opinion, i urge to at least try the Bars yourself before voting!

Today is the second wave of Inventor Bars: Cadbury asked the public to invent a bar of chocolate and the first 3 out of a hat are up for public Voting. Last years bars were nothing to right home about. Coconut, Blueberry and the Winner, Honeycomb are all flavours done by other companies, with the Last already used in An Existing Product!



This year they stepped their game up with 3 new unique flavours.

In Alphabetical order:

BANOFFEE NUT CRUMBLE

Calorie Count: 602 in a 6 square portion (24 squares=4 potions)

(For Full Disclosure all bars in the standard 24 square 3x8 format and all contain Biscuit. This is the last time i will mention it but assume it is there for all 3)

Flavour: Banoffee Fudge Pieces, Golden Almond pieces and Biscuit.

Chewy Fudge, Smooth Chocolate and Crispy. If you have a bar of chocolate that marries flavours this well, well then, you may have a winner on your hands! In my Opinion anyway!

FIZZING CHERRY

Calorie Count: 592 per portion

Flavour: Dried Red Cherries and Popping Candy

Opening the pack. The smell of Cherries is very strong. But the Cherries have a texture like Raisins and it just taste like raisins. The Popping candy adds enough whimsy to the bar. Re-Package for Kids sell it for less than a euro. Then we can talk!

NO FROWNIE BROWNIE

Calorie Count: 597 per portion

Flavour: Brownie Piece, Salted Caramel Pieces.

A Suggestion (and not because it's July in the middle of a heatwave!) But put this bar in the fridge overnight. The Saltiness of the Caramel combined with the soft of the Brownie in chocolate that is covered in less than room temperature chocolate is so good.

In my opinion it's a two horse race that is too close to call between Brownie and Banoffee. That is not say Fizzing Cherry can't win. I would just prefer it to be a kid's party favour than part of a brand for all ages. But again try the bars yourself and giving Cadbury's your own opinion!

Opinion Piece: Fat Shaming in WWE's History: A Weighty Issue

 (THE FOLLOWING EDITORIAL IS STRICTLY MY OPINION. AND IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH WWE )

This one hits hard.

Really Hard.

I have Suffered With Weight and Confidence Issues and Depression for most of my life. It's not  the Main Reason I make posts and not videos, but I would be lying if I said it's not a factor.

You've read the Title of this Post and you saw Raw on Monday Night/ Tuesday Morning. But if you didn't, they repackaged Piper Niven with a New Name.

They are now calling This Plus Sized Woman.....

Doudrop

I can just see Vince McMahon, yukking it up with the Newly Reinstated Executive Reliever In Charge of Having Relationships with Female Talent, Johnny Ace. Because let's be honest, if Piper was not under Contract, she wouldn't be hired by a man who has feed his Protein Shake to every bikini model and cheerleader who came to Wwe for a cup of coffee.

"Well, She's Dewdrop, because she has a round bottom, PAL!" Do not try and tell me that's not the reason for the name. No amount of Justification on why they turned one of NXTUK top talent into a bodyguard stooge for #StillBotchEverything.

Now this is not another Retribution type issue. When the inevitable face turn happens it'll be worth watching. But even after Pounding Eva Marie's Bones to Powder, WHAT THEN? Bring her Back to Britain as if it didn't happen? Put her on NXT as Piper Niven, again, as if it didn't happen? Release her outright? Because that's the Endgame right now, Face Turn, a short match with an idiot, and a midcard run that will fizzle out quickly!

But this is not a new thing. In fact Wwe has had Gimmicks on Body issues and never outright said that bodyshaming is bad, just the blanket statement that All Bullying is Bad, M'Kay? 

Including the two times they made up shit for storyline elements in women's title matches!

In the Early days, the Then WWWF, Acquired the services of Henry J Cobb, the Guinness World Record holder of the Heaviest man at the time. As Happy Humfrey, Cobb was the foil to the equally massive Haystacks Calhoun. On the Road in that era of the late 50s/ early 60s. Restaurants could and did refuse service to people that size. On top of all the stares and ridicule from the public. Cobb himself was once trapped in a phone booth and it took 8 police officers to free him.

Even the Iconic Andre the Giant, a man who had less Control over his weight due to Giantism. If you ever watched HBO'S documentary of him. There is a piece on the Twilight years of Andre's Career. During and After Breaking his Ankle, It was downhill. The Frustration and Alcoholism followed. Former WWE Ref Tim White, who was also  Andre's Handler shared a sad memory of Andre telling Tim that he once wished to look like Him for on day, just to see what it was like to be normal!

In the 80's Adrian Adonis suffered with weight and couldn't shake it off and was Punished, being Repackaged as Adorable Adrian Adonis a Pink clad Sissy who arranged flowers. He took it in stride, but the new gimmick was a punishment. Not as bad as what they did to Playboy Buddy Rose. If you look up Doudrop on youtube and watch Piper's Match THIS video was recommended next! THEY KNOW!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jdkNpEEgqg

...And the fact it was placed there was what drove me to write this piece!

Fast Forward to the Tailend of the Attitude Era and Molly Holly turned Heel by Becoming Virginal and Wrestling in street clothes and using a flipping Version of Ray Steven's Bombs Away as a finish. Covering up in a time where you featured all the Divas in a dance competition or Bikini contest, was seen as a dick move. Despite being Attacked with a belt shot by heel Champion Trish Stratus, despite being heavier Than Molly who was barely 5ft, Trish mocked Molly for her new finisher that she was knocked out with, Concluding the Big And Strong Fitness Model was only Knocked Out...Because Molly has A FAT ASS! And the crowd ate it up! Chanting Fat Ass and holding Giant Signs that read "Molly's Ass: Actual Size!".There was even a time Molly was Pantsed revealing Sensible Underwear. or as King Pervert kept screaming "Granny Panties!"

And lets not Forget The 2nd time WWE made shit up about a supposed weight Issue that didn't exist. I Am referring of course to the Piggy James storyline. This time By the Original Tapeworm, Michelle McCool. In Increasingly insulting Vignettes, By Quite Frankly a women whose whole career hinged on being the New Wife to a World Famous Wrestler. Unlike the above, this happened in this age of social media and people were upset. and because of it, James would beat McTaker for the Title in less than a minute!

The sad things is that these are the stories that were booked and Made Public. giving that many wrestlers of a certain size have entered WWE'S doors, if more happened backstage, then they kept quiet. We know Vince is not a fan of Kevin Owen's look and Keith Lee's Gear was tweaked to cover his chest. Kassius Ohno was booked as a top heel but fizzled out, due to his ballooning weight. The Doudrop gimmick has barely started, but people are already upset. Which will only mean the storyline will rachet up in Cruelty quickly. Good News it means that this story line will end quicker. Bad news WWE will not look good after this!

WWE HELL IN A CELL 2021-FINALLY GETTING BEYOND THUNDERDOME!

 Well this show was a 3 star B-show! They did good things good, but the Stupid Shit could not be ignored! 

I suppose you want more Detail, but next month wwe is back on the road putting shows on for real people, and if they keep doing shit like this, Boy oh boy, will they express their Displeasure!

Greetings From Ireland, It's Eamonn aka Enlightened doing what may be the last show i do this year! I posted why in the previous post. But long story short, I'm leaving the Country for a few Days for Family Reasons. I will not say what it is, but Suit and Gift Shopping will be involved! And Because all my posts come out of pocket, i will not have the coin for This trip and PPVS.

So let's start.

I found it weird that of the 2 women's title Matches, that this match would be in the Cell. I would learn WHY! later but it did confuse me, This Smackdown women's Match was Pretty Good, containing good Action, A call back to Bayley's attempt to make a double Kendo Stick. Bayley working a body part in the steel cage, rather than brawling and smashing it against the steel, made me happy. But it was Bianca as the Plucky Babyface that retained the title!

A Jump-Start is how the next match, Cesaro and Rollins started. This was a rematch from The Sleeper hit of this year's Mania, one of two matches that replaced the Hell in a cell title match we got for free! And it didn't disappoint, Except for the Finish, The Fucking Roll-up!

#BANTHEROLLUP!

And then....Oh and then!

SHAYNA BASZLER VS ALEXA BLISS

OR

THE CONJURING: THE DEVIL MADE ME BOOK IT!

Alexa used her SPOOOOOOKY Hypno Powers to scare Nia and Reggie. Alexa even controlled Nia Anti-Vax to slap herself. That's all you Covid Deniers need to do, Slap yourself Sensible in Public! I cannot wait for real Crowds because 3 things will be stop cold: Calling Piper Dewdrop, Ryker's Face Run, and this Horror Channel Uk Original bullshit! Bliss won in a contender for worse match of the year, Though Tony Cookie's Your Ring A Splode is a tough act to follow!

Next Sami Zayn vs Kevin Owen....And i couldn't care less, they are beginning to poison the well by giving us this match over and over again. Was it Better than Alexa using Mind control on a Blob and a Wine Clown? Yes! But do you know what's better than Alexa  Using Mind Control On a Blob and a Wine Clown?

FUCKING ANYTHING!

Anyway Sami Zayn Won, And Bragged it to Michael Cole, saying "The Voice in his Head" (IE VINCE!) Must have Hated that! We are now Close to working ourselves into a shoot and Sami must be careful!

Speaking of Hating All them Goddahm Foreigners, PAL!

Another thing that the real crowd will shutdown. will be this double turn that they tries to pull On Rhea and Charlotte's match. We know why it wasn't in the Cell. It had to end in DQ! Rhea Beaned Charlotte in the head with the banner thing on the announce table and the Disqualification called! Pathetic!

And Finally Bobby Lashley Retained in a Brawl Inside the Cell. With a little help from MVP! MVP got his though, A dusty Finish allowed him to get into the cell interfere, only of the Refs to lock the cell again, trapping MVP with a Pissed Off Drew McIntyre. Getting a Measure of Revenge meant Drew's head was out of the game long enough for the Bobby to Hit another Fucking Rollup!

WELL THAT'S IT FOR WWE THIS YEAR....BUT I'M NOT "DONE" DONE!

I'm focusing on on my other blog. BoggerBoxoffice til the forseeable future. As such, Posts here will be Sporadic, unless something happens to warrant my attention! I'm on Twitter, and can be found Via @RealEnli

Still Here....New Summer Schedule for 2021

 Yeah, I have being Busy Offline and continue to do so. and today i will tell you how it will affect my blogs from now on.

CUTTING MY LOSSES

Without going into my Personal Life (Because You Don't want to Know about It!) A family event is happening September, that will require me to leave the country for a week. That Means Summerslam is off the table. As you can Imagine, Leaving the country means a lot of preparations and money will go it. 2 Month's worth starting in July! And to be honest, every show til The Rumble next year will be off too! All My Ppvs come out of my own pocket, so being close to to Christmas means i will probably not be covering any ppvs til i feel i am ready to so.

But Yes to Confirm. Hell in a Cell is my final show....If Sky Ireland could get off their asses!

There is no Change to Boggerboxoffice. Each post is drafted by hand and then edited 2 pages a day. 2to3 pages in advance of the first week of the month, and launched the 1st working day of each month. This is manageable for me, given the sudden change that will happen in August preparing for this September. As opposed to me launching a post from Scratch the morning after the Pay-per-View!

That's my Lot! and i want to thank you all for your support.  I apologize for the slip in content, But i promise you things will be better, sooner or later!

PEACE!

EAMONN AKA ENLI!

Taste Test 2k21: TAYTO DELI SANDWICH.

 Back again Doing Reviews, and a Week from the biggest Event of the Year, Today is a small Review Before All the Madness Over at Bogger Box Office. I've Decided that If Tayto Rises to the Challenge of creating Limited Editions, I should, As Ireland's Journeyman Reviewer, Should Rise to Said!

GOING BY ALPHABETICAL ORDER!


BEEF BRISKET

Package Colour: Purple and White Awning With Mr Tayto In a Chef's Hat holding a spatula, The Premise Being The Sentient Tuber has opened a Deli with 3 crisps on a 3D Chopping board!

Calorie Count/Nutritional Info: 1009 Calories, Suitable for Vegetarians

Taste: Very Smoky and Robust Steak Flavour, Though I would like More Paprika or BBQ Sauce to Add to the Steak. Though it does say Beef Brisket not BARBEQUE Beef Brisket, So you can't complain about false advertising!

PHILLIE CHEESE STEAK

Package Colour: Same as the last one, Only Yellow, because, You Know, Cheese!

Calorie Count/Nutritional Info: 1006 Calories, Suitable for Vegetarians.

Taste: Upon Opening the Packet, The whaft of Sharp Cheddar Invades the Nostrils. The Cheese and Steak compliments each other perfectly. As Someone who cooks American Style Food to watch Wrestling shows on the Regular, I know from Experience how hard it is to Ratio Cheese Sauce with it overpowering The Steak, or Adding too little and having a dry tasteless sambo! Tayto Has it down on the first try! Just have Mints Handy after Eating this, and go to kiss your Babygirl, Lads!

Well That's it!

As i said, I am currently working on the First few Pages of the Big Event over on my other Blog. I am of course talking about the Tickets to Hell Event. So You wont see any new planned Posts Here until June's Money In The Bank. Until then If you want to follow me on Twitter, Do so @RealEnli!

PEACE!

WRESTLEMANIA 37: A PRIEST AND A RABBI(T) ENTER A BRAWL.....

 Hello and Welcome to a post too big to be done in one day, as of the time of writing it is 7am on Sunday, I am at my home, and I'm having Jerk Chicken from last night for brekkie!

Which means I've watched a ppv last night!

We open to Vince McMahon thanking the fans, and more shockingly, acknowledge that Covid is a thing! The Fake Johnny Depp voiceover is back,  and is as cringe worthy as last year.

....then 40 minutes were wasted on a Weather Warning, because Vince couldn't book a hall that had a roof with his millions! But the wrestlers cut passionate promos to bring everyone back. They would have wasted 30 minutes...if we didn't waste a further 10 on false pleasantries by Titus and Racist Grandpa, that Old Hack Hogan! Seriously Titus is such a Professional, me I would have attacked Hogan for what he said...and I'm not even Black!

First match the WWE championship match. A distraction by MVP, cost Drew McIntyre against Bobby Lashley in a showcase of talent!

Tag Turmoil was supposed to be the match where the Riott Squad was to win....until it was pretty clear tomorrow night Nia Anti-Vax does the J.O.B to her even more talentless Cousin!

I hope Vince was watching and listening to the crowd during the Cesaro Vs Rollins Match, because I said this was going to be a sleeper hit, and It delivered!

AJ Styles, And New Day, need Chiropractors on Monday for carrying Omos! 

The last cage match at mania was 35 years ago. And the quality of the one last night, it'll be another 35 years! Proud Boy Braun bet Shane MacMahon, with a convenient Postage Bag containing a toolbox!

Graveyard shift and Damian Priest deserves BETTER! This was, of course, the Celebrity Make-A-Wish match, where a celebrity only known in 'Murica gets world fame pretending to be a Rassler! Miz and Johnny Lastbrick lost, and they always will!

Finally the quality skyrocketed, as Bianca Belair showed what she was made of against Sasha Banks. Only one drawback, the return of  the hair whip spot and the sound which was definitely a leg slap! Pay 200 dollars and don't pass go, Pal!

This ends night 1. Under the line of asterisks, I will be adding night 2's results on Monday Morning

********************************************

(THE FOLLOWING WAS REVIEWED THIS MORNING 12/04/2021)

The First 20 Minutes of this show was like a fever dream! Hogan and Titus Dressed as Pirates, a giant Jack in the Box and Alexa Bliss Crying Tar tears. This Distraction cost The Extra Crispy Fiend to lose to Randy Orton, Hopefully it's over.... But after the match they Implied that Alexa controls Bray and not the other way around!

Is Tamina Retiring? Is that why Tamina was over last night? More Importantly, why should the crowd care about a heel, also why should they care about Tamina? IT'S ONLY TAMINA! Tamina along with Nattie does the J.O.B. To her Cousin!

"THERE IS NO PRO-TRUMP AGENDA WHEN VINCE MACMAHON BOOKS SAMI ZAYN"

I would also like to know how much money Vince Paid Failed Child Actor and RECORDED CORPSE DEFILER! Logan Paul to Fall Asleep at Ringside!" Then you have JBL do commentary and i was done, Match last 2 minutes, Sami lost, Logan made Sami look like a bitch by pushing him, Raised Kevin Owen's Hand and That Caused Kevin to go Apeshit on Logan Paul, Maybe because it was the hand that Logan Hand the Poking Stick to Jake!

I would like to make an announcement, all the shit matches are over with!

3 Title changes Back-to-back-to-back! First Sheamus Beat some sense into Matt "#NOMEANSNOBRO "Riddle, In a good back and forth bout, Nigerian Drum Match was a Street fight with Kendo Sticks, Bongo Drums and A gong, Apparently it was a play on a phrase meaning a beating, and while it was goofy, it focused on evolving Apollo Big E was Attacked by Dabba Kato in a Military Dress Uniform. And Rhea Ripley Hit the Riptide from Nowhere in a blockbuster bout against Asuka in match that was Vindication from the BULLSHIT that was last year's Night 2!

And Finally to Set Up some rematches at the REMATCH ONLY PAY-PER-VIEW, Roman Reigns in a statement making move covered Edge onto Daniel Bryan's Body, to retain the Universal Championship! Bryan was getting some Boos here and there, sounds like a lot of people also agreed that adding himself cheapened Edge's Return to WWE. But like i said, Backlash, on the 16th of May (MY BIRTHDAY!) IS THE WRESTLEMANIA REMATCH SHOW, and they need something to book as a main event. They have a month to do so, which means A B-SHOW WILL HAVE BETTER BOOKING THAN THE BIGGEST SHOW OF THE YEAR! They pulled it off....Barely! Hopefully they have learned what not to do In Texas Next year, and hopefully we are not flying by the seats of our Pants Next Year!

Well, That's it!

Tomorrow, one of 2 things will happen: a WWE DRAFT OR ME RELEASING A SUMMER SCHEDULE! Either way Join me tomorrow morning, If you can't wait til then, Follow me on Twitter @RealEnli!
