Just got to my hotel in Orlando. Cruise was excellent. Lots of fun, lot and lots of alcohol. I think my liver has onions, now. Cruise set sail from Miami with a Fozzy concert to kick off the festivities. Followed by un-televised aew matches. Sat front row for Talk is Jericho podcast featuring the nWo. Unfortunately, nash and xpac both canceled. Scott hall and Eric bischoff discussed a lot about the formation of the nWo and how it all came together. DDP and booker T were on the panel to talk about what wcw was like for the guys outside the nWo. And Jericho as well. It should be up on spotify soon. Waters were very for this cruise. Wives went to bed sea sick. My buddy and i proceeded to get hammered. Rode the elevator up to the bar with scott hall. Really cool guy.
Day 2 was the aew taping. The boat docked in the Bahamas. We didn't get off. Wives were still sick and decided they didn't want to stand for 8hrs to secure our ringside standing spots, so we opted for second level spots with a great view and chairs. Met some great people. There were 2 24/7 titles floating around. I held both for a few minutes before losing to small children. Gotta get a better ground game. Also went to Talk is Jericho Featuring jake the snake. Really interesting. The man is very open about past indiscretions and doesn't hold back. He's an excellent storyteller and i recommend listening to that podcast.
Day 3 we checked out Light the Torch, Howard Jones from Killswitch Engage's new project. Im a metal guy, so i really liked them. Also saw Farewell to fear, a hard rock group from new Orleans, also very good. Watched more wrestling on the main deck. Probably saw my favorite match ever. Private Party vs Jurassic Express. The boys have a lot more freedom on the boat and really flexed some comedic muscle. My sides hurt after the match from laughing so hard.
Day 4 was pretty chill. Went to a few signigs and photo sessions. Got bored of that and went to the hottub. Hung out with ref Aubrey. Super nice girl. Saw a couple comedy shows too. Bruce jingles sucks. Craig gass is awesome. Missed gabriel Iglesias. Watched the final matches on the boat. Cody gave a nice promo thanking the fans. Drowned our sorrows in alcohol because we knew it was almost over.
All in all, it was great. We'll book again. Any questions, ask away.
