Sorry for the lack of updates on my part, folks, I’ve just been super burnt out the last few days for some reason.  It’s probably got to do with my current employment situation (which is that my work may potentially be closing – don’t worry about me though, I have a plan), or maybe it’s got to do with the impending launch of a new site through my company, Fropac Entertainment – but more onthat when I get to it.  All of that is irrelevant, though, as we’ve got a NEW WWE CHAMPION in Jeff Hardy!
