Was 9 Years of age living up in Winnipeg Manitoba in the 4th Grade.

Was at my peak of Fandom for Pro Wrestling watching both Raw and Smackdown weekly and excited for the Hockey season local and professional. Sidney Crosby joining the NHL for Pittsburgh.

Season 2 of 6Teen began on Teletoon with the episode "Boo Dude!" And the Special "Dude of the Living Dead" airing throughout the season fitting the atmosphere. Along with the Ed Edd n Eddy Special "Boo Haw Haw being a really fun Special of the show.

The American Dragon Jake Long and W.i.t.c.h. premiered on Family Channel with both shows being cool and enjoyable.

Danny Phantom and Martin Mystery both continued airing on YTV which really captured the atmosphere of the season.

Evanescence airing the radio from the Summer with "Going Under" and "Imaginary" and during the Fall "My Last Breath" played quite often. Eminem (Till I Collapse.) Three Days Grace (Burn, Scared, Home.) All played throughout Fall period. Along with the Game (Hate or Love it.)

Specials from Jimmy Neutron, on YTV, and other series long with Teen Titans, Yu-gi-oh, and an Anime/Action block on the channel called "Bionex" Naruto, Justice League Unlimited, Zatch Bell etc.

Scary Godmother "The Revenge of Jimmy." Aired during the season as well which was fun.

Went to Emerson Grade School in the 4th Grade and fond memories during the school Year. The Fall season was very comfortable and recently learned how to ride my bike over the Summer so would ride my bike around the community of Osborne Village with the comfortable breeze.

Enjoyed Family Channel, with YTV still in it's "Keep It Weird Era" and Teletoon from 6Teen, Totally Spies, Braceface, Grim Adventures, Foster's Home, Code Name Kids Next Door, What's New Scooby Doo? Ghost stories Etc.

Just different memories and experiences I remember vividly from this time of Year back in '05.

18 years went by yet that feeling of anticipation building up to this Finale is still very fresh in the mind. The hype was truly strong for this Finale the entire Week from that Monday to Saturday and an experience that I very much remember.

With the film Michael being released this year, there's been a resurgence for his music and several Young individuals being exposed to him more than they probably were before. I have to keep reminding myself that all those in the K-12 System were all born after or having no memories of Michael being alive, when they see and hear of him for their whole lives it's always been of Past Tense and view him as "He's Dead" rather than "He Died."

It was an experience that I remember exactly where I was when I heard, the same street on the City Bus with my Sister leaving the Barbershop and thought it was a joke because I literally just performed "Beat It" after finishing the 7th Grade. Went to the Mall that afternoon and I still vividly remember that feeling of quitness throughout the building and I can't remember a time afterwards when that feeling as strong as it was during that Afternoon.

Was living up in Winnipeg Manitoba and was turning 14 Years over the Summer when World Tour Premiered on both Teletoon and Cartoon Network. The fact that those who are 16 Years currently were newborns when this Season was airing and basically the Final Hurray for the Original characters is truly something. A true highlight of the Summer of 2010 for myself personally before starting High School.

With the Fifth Film of the Franchise releasing this summer in 2026, I personally have strong memories of the Summer of 2010 when the Third Film hit theaters and genuinely exceeded many high expectations. One of the best films I've seen and strong way to conclude a Trilogy.

Throughout 2005-2007, while only there for a short time, Lashley was definitely receiving a huge push Throughout that period where he went from Competing for the top title on Smackdown, ECW and Raw and going into WM 23 Season, was positioned next to Cena and Batista as the top guys of the company.

Feuded with Vince and seen as Cena's biggest Challenge besides Shawn Michaels during his near year long Reign at the time. It really felt that Lashley was on his way to obtaining the WWE Title Throughout that year before he went away due you surgery.

If Lashley decided to stay with the company and possibly return sometime say during the Royal Rumble and competed in the Raw Elimination Chamber Match and say had a one on one Match with HHH at WM 24 where Cena and Randy have their own one on one Match etc.

If Lashley if returned back to the company shortly after Leaving, how would his career look Throughout during that period?

While it's a simple one season version that is justifiably overlooked by several different Iterations being the Original or the recent Legendary Defenders. I genuinely have fond memories of this particular season over the Summer of 2011 throughout the year until it ended on a decent cliffhanger.

Just felt like sharing since those 15 Years went by way faster than I'd expected it would being 15 watching this series.

With the Powerhouse Era concluding and the City Era beginning Twenty Two Years Ago and with how stacked both Eras were and objectively seen as the Peak for the channel's history.

Along with the streaming having overtaken basic TV watching and the channel still being active with myself catching reruns of different shows, mainly The Checkered Past block.

I'm personally grateful for myself and those within my age demographic for being truly the best age for Both Eras at the Peak of the channel from all angles within the Peak of our own Years as as Children at the time.

There was a lot of highlights throughout the Summer of 2011 with this special genuinely being one. There was a lot of hype with this special that I remember going into the Summer of that Year, those my age and younger were talking about it due to Kenan Thompson being involved which ironically brought a lot of us to our childhood and the hype and vibe truly matched the time period of the Early 10's as well.

A simple fact that those born when this special aired are currently the same age as myself and peers back then.

For context, I been watching the series since it premiered over the Summer in 2007 on Teletoon. By this point, Summer Vacation was starting in 2010, was living up in Winnipeg and turning 14 about to enter High School and this Special aired tonight 16 Years Ago which was basically the Prelude of World Tour which began throughout the Summer of that Year. From how the special was, the dynamics, the addition of two new characters.

An actual Time skip within the series and the most we've seen of the World outside the actual show. As well as the first and only time, all Twenty Two competitors were all working together towards the same goal.

Was looking forward to the upcoming season and amazing how it's been 16 Years when I genuinely can remember the time and experience as if it was recently.

I grew up watching majority of these series on Either Teletoon or YTV in Winnipeg but as a Kid, these Five would most likely have been the top Five I'd watch immensely on Cartoon Network.

I consider and include Justice League and Unlimited as just one series overall from 2001-2006 which is ironic since it'd be from when I was Five to Ten Years of age.
