Probably one of the funniest and bad ass scenes in American Cinema with Bronson as Paul Kersey confronting a mugger who raped and killed his daughter, asking him if believe in Jesus with the mugger saying he did, and Bronson assuring him he'll be meeting him before blowing him to kingdom come.

Oh fuck. I forgot yesterday is what would've been Charles Bronson's 95th birthday. Bronson was of course best known for being one of Hollywood's tough guys appearing in movies like The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape, The Dirty Dozen, Once Upon A Time In The West, and The five Death Wish movies. Bronson passed away on August 30, 2003 at the age of 81 due to pneumonia and Alzheimer's disease.

A Look Back At The Universal Wrestling Federation 30 Years Later
A Look Back At The Universal Wrestling Federation 30 Years Later
November 1, 2016
By Ryan Porzl
In March 1986, Wrestling Legend and Promoter Bill Watts attempted to go national when he transformed his Mid South Wrestling promotion into the Universal Wrestling Federation. On paper, Watts seemed to have just about everything to make it work. He was a great promoter and booker who could book episodic TV, he had some of the best wrestlers in America, many great young prospects, and raided World Class Championship Wrestling of some of their best. Unfortunately, The UWF would last until April 1987 when Watts sold to Jim Crockett who eventually shut it down in December 1987. Many have blamed the oil recession that occurred in the fall of 1986 as being the big reason why as The UWF was headquartered in the Mid South which was hit the hardest by it. However, if you look at it, The UWF likely was doomed regardless and we'll take a look at what they had going for them as well as against them.

Simon's Theme: Super Castlevania 4 Music
Happy 25th Anniversary to the classic Super Castlevania IV which came out on this day 25 years ago in Japan and December 4th in America. Though a remake of Castlevania, the game was actually different as the game was not identical or an updated version that you would expect from remakes. In a way, it's a remake only in story. I usually agree with The Angry Video Game Nerd in that it's the best Castlevania game with the graphics being rich for Super Nintendo and the music was some of the best in the series. However, as the video game box said "Just Be Sure To Tell Your Next Of Kin Before You Begin".

A few years ago, I wrote about looking at the MMA world every month and having wanted to do something like this for a while, I decided to try and showcase the fights that fans should look forward to during the month. For now, I'll look at most of the top MMA companies like UFC, Bellator, WSOF, ONE, and Rizin since I'm most familiar with them.
