A great sign that my 30th year will be my best ever, was the celebration that ushered in the dawning of a new era. My birthday party on Saturday night at Alive, in conjunction with Danny Duggan's 22nd was the best birthday bash I ever had. And I could thank everyone individually for their contribution, but the list would be quite lengthy.
Shockingly, I feel far better at 30 than I did turning 25.
What does this year hold in store for me? I'd love to commit to being smarter, more sophisticated and mature. I could sware never to make the mistakes I made in my 20s, and for a week I'd actually live to the vow. I could promise that professionally in the wrestling business, I will no longer rib people, pick on the innocent and go out of business every 3 shows.
I could do all of that, but that would be compromising who I am. And I'm sure as hell not about to do that. I am who I am, and you can hate everything about me, or appreciate the quarks that make me a very interesting person. So there.
The New AWE, also referred to as Action Wrestling Experience is really taking off. Of course it is, it's got a great President, lol. We are taking our act on the road into Saskatchewan in May it looks like, and hopefully will be doing 3-5 house shows per month.
I am so in love with Carrie Underwood's song "I Told You So". It's a remake of Randy Travis' song from the 80s or 90s. Big mistake making that song a duet. I just heard Brad Paisley's new song "Then" and omg it's a number one song in 2 months guarenteed. I am a big country music fan, and that means I listen to Hank, NCI, Maverick and QX, depending on which is playing the song I want to hear. BIG MISTAKE for QX to bring Troy Westwood in to the waking crew. He's the drizzling shits. I'd trust him more to kick a 55yarder into the wind than to host this morning show.
Haven't seen any good movies lately. And I haven't even been watching my favorite TV show General Hospital. Too busy with other stuff I guess.

Things Are Fantastic!
I have a new favorite radio song! Let me first define that a favorite radio song, is not an all-time favorite song, it's a song that's currently your favorite on the radio. Example, last July, She Never Cried In Front of Me by Toby Keith was my fav. Now, it's a Carrie Underwood remake of Randy Travis' hit I Told You So! My god what a true song, every single one of us has been in that exact situation, though some of us deal with it a whole lot better than others. So yeah, that's my new favorite radio hit.
I'm extremely excited that one my favorite country music artists is coming to Winnipeg this summer as well. Taylor Swift who could sing me out of any bad mood is coming, and it won't be my first time seeing her. I saw her open up for Rascal Flatts in March of 2008 and it was ridiculous how good she was. I'm expecting more of the same.
More good news. Today I stepped on the scale and it really impressed me that I was 190 pounds. That's the lowest I've been in 2 years, and down from my January weight of 206. I credit Sean Brown at Impact Fitness and Danny Duggan's co-worker diet for achieving this. Honestly I may well be in the best shape of my life. Maybe it's time to plan yet another aborted wrestling comeback.
I watched a fair bit of curling this year, and I must say last weekends comeback of Jeff Stoughton was inspiring, unfortunately the curling juggernaut Kevin Martin with a very stacked team proved to be way too much. Good job though and you made Manitoba proud.
I'm exactly 4 weeks out from my very big wrestling show coming up. Lots to do, but it's well on it's way. The New Age Outlaws and Hardcore Holly headline a star-studded show. Let me boldly state, that all indications point to success. If you want tickets, e-mail me, awedavidson@yahoo.ca.
That's it for now. I turn 30 on Monday.

What a Week!
This has been one of the most productive 7 days of my life. Since announcing the reincarnation of AWE, it's amazing how much progress you actually make from Ground zero.
Bringing the best talent to the table for The New AWE has been a very rewarding experience. I want to personally thank Mentallo, who was a complete pleasure to deal with. He's coming off a world class match with American Dragon Bryan Danielson a month ago that really showed me at least that he is as good as he needs to be. Bringing him into the fold is extremely exciting.
On to The New Age Outlaws. I've always wanted to bring in Road Dogg to team with Billy Gunn, who I've had here no fewer than 4 times. But for whatever reasons, it never happened. This time, it was easy to put together, and the timing was right. And now the most charismatic tag-team of all time will wrestle in Winnipeg. I've gotten a great deal of feedback about who should face The Outlaws. And many believe it should be The Vanilla Gorillas. And for obvious reasons that would be a great choice. A great many think it should be Kevin Chevy and AJ Sanchez. Either way, whichever the choice, I know I'm fortunate to have what will be a great match.
Hardcore Holly is an interesting variable to the show. His reputation proceeds himself as an intensely volatile personality who can be a little high-strung. My reputation is one that has many local wrestlers wanting to knock my block off. So this could be an interesting workplace. So far so good with Holly though and I fully expect that we will not see any hiccups in working together. However, as a booker who likes to take full advantage of any assets, I may use Hardcore Holly's reputation to get the most out of a guy who is typically in any bookers dog house.
So, here's one other thing I've been contemplating doing. Not announcing any matches publicly. Let the fans show up and see the night unfold. Let the arm-chair bookers put it together the way they would like to see a show. Just a thought. Not too sure.
Here's the list of confirmed talent for The New AWE's VINDICATION:
The New Age Outlaws
Hardcore Holly
Kevin Chevy & AJ Sanchez (likely in tag-team action but who knows)
Shane Madison
Wavell Starr
Don Douglas
Danny Duggan
Ryan Wood
Mentallo
and just added!!! Founding Member of The Vanilla Gorillas-- SYNN!!!
There you go. Show is Wednesday April 15th, at Blush Ultra Club, 323 Portage Ave across from MTS Centre. Doors open at 8pm, bell time is 9pm. The show however is only for adults.
E-mail awedavidson@yahoo.ca for tickets.
