April round-up


April has always been a troublesome month. Well, not that the other months are any better, but it always seems like the tragic, life-changing ****

So, let's see what April brought this year, shall we?

  • Joker turned out to be worth the wait in Smash Bros.
  • A little known show called Game of Thrones returned for its final season - and was pirated immediately.
  • Gotham’s final season involves a time-skip.
  • The Notre Dame cathedral burned down.
  • Questions about people’s choice of charities care into question afterwards.
  • Kofi Kingston became the first African-born WWE World Heavyweight champion.
  • Daniel Bryan is currently out with an undisclosed injury.
  • Kurt Angle’s final match was losing to Boring Corbin.
  • All in all WrestleMania 35 wasn’t that bad.
  • Except that Bret Hart was attacked during the Hall of Fame by a disturbed man.
  • That disturbed man got attacked by half the locker room as a delightful result.
  • The Superstar Shakeup left some questionable decisions.
  • Batista wrestled his final match.
  • Dean Ambrose will be leaving WWE.
  • Luke Harper wants out too.
  • So does Sasha Banks.
  • Goldust has also left WWE and will be having what will presumably be his retirement match in AEW, against Cody Rhodes.
  • Reggie retired from Nintendo.
  • We found a new store for cheap fruit and vegetables.
  • One Punch Man season 2 begun.
  • The Shredder will apparently be making his way to Rise of the TMNT (and it might just be the shot in the arm the show desperately needs.)
  • Mortal Kombat 11 launched.
  • The Mortal Kombat 11 DLC will supposedly feature a very different clown than I was expecting.
  • Kronika’s kind of a stupid villain.
  • Mortal Kombat 12’ story will be very intriguing.
  • So did that new Power Rangers fighting game. (We got Mecha-Dragon Trini instead of Trini-Trini.)
  • I’ve finished over twenty mugshots.
  • Finally managed to watch some episodes from Samurai Jack’s final season.
  • Saw the Pickle Rick episode. Worst forced meme ever.
  • I saw the 25th anniversary special episode of Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel. (Why does Tommy still get top-billing?)
  • A baby Tyrannosaur fossil will be going to some rich knob’s collection instead of a museum.
  • Mark Hamill will be taking up the mantle of Chucky.
  • The new Muppet Babies cartoon is delightful.
  • The aftermath of the Mueller Report is still up in the air.
  • Vic Mignogna won’t go away.
