Been almost a month since trying this and so far...have bigger skating community than wrestling community.
Love being a fan of pro wrestling (especially 🇯🇵 pro wrestling).
Love being a fan of figure skater.
Glad to be a part of Bluesky.

Hey everyone.
It's me...Sandy aka SRod_Princesa (on the former Twitter) aka mermaidsandy (on Tumblr) and aka sandyximene (on all other apps).
Trying this app since many are talking about it.
🙏🏾 it does good for me.

Yeah, because like I said... what else is left there for him to do in that company.
🤷🏾‍♀️... there's nothing left.
My uncle Jimmy... he needs to stop falling for these click-bait videos.
I trust only Fightful and PW Insider for any pro wrestling news/info which is never easy to do.

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 4h

Again... my uncle told me that rumor last night.
I told him not to trust those sources but... 🤦🏾‍♀️... click bait.
Be careful falling for those.

There is more than 1 Hall of Fame in Pro Wrestling.
He might end up being in more than 1.
Interesting enough, many who go into a Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame or any Hall of Fame for the sport they play, never saw themselves as such.
Just saw themselves as 1 of us... a normal person.

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 4h

Again... that's all that is left for him when it comes to WWE but... too soon.
Wait 10 or 15 years and... 🤷🏾‍♀️... it maybe possible.

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 4h

Though true... again... it's too soon for that to be in consideration.
10 or 15 years down the line... 🤷🏾‍♀️... but not the right time right now.
Also... he wasn't the only 1.
There are others that also had issues while working there and despite that... some do end up in the Hall of Fame.

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 4h

Other than going into their Hall of Fame but... too soon for consideration.
That's 10 or 15 years ahead of us.
But my uncle listens to these videos believing the rumors.
I know what sources and he... 🤷🏾‍♀️ but that's what he told me last night and I told not to believe in them.

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 4h

All that's left is the Hall of Fame but... timing's not right for that.
Be about 10 or 15 years before that is even considered.
And yeah... my uncle... those videos he looks at... 🤦🏾‍♀️.
Even told him not to believe those videos.

The next few episodes of "AEW Dynamite" will reveal a lot of things.
Keep your eyes out for the unexpected.

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 4h

Talked to my uncle last night and he told me that there are rumors of Jon Moxley going back to WWE.
Those sources are NOT from those I trust (Fightful or PW Insider).
So this is just one of those rumors that can be seen as click bait.
Don't believe in everything you read or hear.

Grand Prix de France - Pairs Final results

6 15

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 2d

Another free with 1 mistake but 1 was as good if not better than the 🇭🇺 team.
Riku Miura/Ryuichi Kihara (🇯🇵)... so amazing with their rendition of "Gladiator".
To me...Rio Nakata's is better because of the music but still... magnificent performance.
They're winning this event every1.
#GPFigure

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 2d

They managed to tie up on the technical but those mistakes early on... going to be costly.
Think many are still under the 🇭🇺 spell.
Their free was mesmerizing despite just 1 mistake.

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 2d

Beautiful free skate from Maria Pavlova/Alexei Sviatchenko (🇭🇺).
So beautiful... commentary (from my end) is speechless.
Only mistake was from Alexei in the side-by-side jumps.
To me... right now... they're 1 of the few lights for Hungary.
Again... beautiful free skate.

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 2d

Came back home for the last 2 short programs.
Adam Siao Him Fa (🇫🇷)... either get a new short program or a new costume because that music... not for you.
Ilia Malinin (🇺🇲)... love the costume. Music was amazing.
Definitely brought the house down.
🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Riku Miura/Ryuichi Kihara (🇯🇵), to me, just topped the 🇨🇦 team.
Believe they'll be the leaders going into the Free tomorrow.
#GPFigure

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 3d

Perform the most wonderful short program I've ever saw.
This type of music never gets old to use whether in pro wrestling or figure skating, it is the type of music that'll get the crowd going.
Great performance by Stellato-Dudek/Deschamps who take the lead with 1 to go in 🇫🇷.

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 3d

First time I heard "Carmina Burana" was at "Wrestlemania XIV" as part of the entrance for the Undertaker.
Have heard it numerous times since then. Even in the figure skating world.
But nothing compares to what Deanna Stellato-Dudek and Maxime Deschamps (🇨🇦) just did with this piece of music.

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 3d

The perfect song for what may be a first-place short program with 2 teams to go.
Maria Pavlova/Alexei Sviatchenko (🇭🇺) just exploded.
They're putting their country back on the map.
🤯
#GPFigure

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 3d

Near-perfect short for Camille and Pavel.
The mistake on the side-by-side jumps will cost them though.
Still... it was beautiful.
#GPFigure

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 3d

Fantastic short from Katie McBeath/Daniil Parkman (🇺🇲).
See 🇺🇲 going 1-2 with the second group coming up.
#GPFigure

Sandy Rodriguez-Neal @sandyximene.bsky.social · 3d

Time for the Pairs short in 🇫🇷.
Missed the first team but watch the next 2.
Shin/Nagy (🇺🇲)... 🔥🔥🔥
Their best short yet and doing the Godfather... awesome.
Faula/Belle (🇫🇷)... first time watching them... music was okay but a lot of mistakes early.
Need a deeper connection.
