It’s another cold, inhospitable evening in Brooklyn, and for the first time since 2001, there are two simultaneous professional wrestling programs airing on Monday. Each program is being hyped as the return of performers already considered old in 2001: TNA has Hulk Hogan, WWE has Bret Hart. At least one show will likely heavily involve midgets. It’s a magic way to ring in 2010, and I have decided to liveblog it.

I’ve also decided to drink a magnum of Anchor Brewing Christmas Ale that has spent the last decade in my parents’ basement before being fobbed off on me over the holidays. According to Anchor Brewing,

Properly refrigerated, the beer remains intriguing and drinkable for years, with different nuances slowly emerging as the flavor mellows slightly.

We shall see.

But lest all of this night be backwards-looking, I’m going to try this newfangled CoverItLive software tonight. Hopefully it is showing up below this message.
