I feel seen

Wholesome Wednesday

The Excellence of Execution. Such a fitting nickname.

in the hot tub with Johnny Ace before he became their step dad?

Ah good, WWE will have its own Dork Order.

I am connected with him on Linkedin he has been working with schools and doing assemblies about the dangers of drinking and driving. His young daughter was killed by a drunk driver not long ago. I know he may have been shitty in the past but he seems like a decent guy now.

Britt Baker is a goddamn national treasure.

Best episode of Dynamite in its short lifetime. Probably the best episode of TV wrestling I’ve watched in a long time. Also for a small market town, Cedar Park felt like it was Baltimore in the 80’s. Whoever directed this should walk out before the end of the night, and take a bow.

Once, in about 1995, Bret Hart was a guest on British Saturday morning kids TV. The presenter asked him if he could show them any moves that would work for self defence. He demonstrated a Side Russian Legsweep.

Hi.

I'd go for Rey Mysterio Jr., and then I think that they should get into an argument about who is the kind of the Jr./Cruiserweights and then they should have a blood fued for Liger's American retirement tour. That can happen right? Please? I already miss Liger, despite not watching much of his work of the last few years. I just want to know he's in a wrestling ring somewhere. I'm not crying, you're crying.

Was it Spain or Italy where Warrior came out of retirement to face Orlando Jordan? EDIT: what a fucking bizarre sentence that is...

Hey man wrestling training is NO LAUGHING MATTER

Any word on whether Bill DeMott has been sent there to run the place? He could finally live out his dream of beheading underperforming students.

This week we have the earliest Finlay match on tape that we think exists in the wild (and that is brand new to the community like ALL this footage), a raucous, crowd-pleasing tag team match between two experts in Guy Mercier and Alan Mitchells and a real master of stooging in Ian Gilmour with Finlay as his bruising and bumping heavy. and maybe my favorite match we've watched so far with Jean Bout, who we'd never heard of but is just beyond great, taking on a real scumbag in Liano Pellacani. Watch this one. @DEAN, @Goodear @OSJ @supremebve @jaedmcthat means you (and everyone else too).

A webcomic that has absolutely nothing to do with pro wrestling that I look at just made a subtle Orange Cassidy reference in the subtext. As for Golden, hopefully Cody remembers what Dusty did for Bubba early in his career- you don't use someone that big as a jobber, you have them be muscle for someone while squashing folks to get experience and build them up. Maybe stick her with Britt?

That’s how good Bret is. Even on his downtime he was still training himself, and young lions like Mr. Money in the art of combat.

I used to think this was the best.

So WWE can finally make good on this promise ?

This show had fat man clubbering, so it was automatically awesome. Stu Bennett got me with some Heenan-esque heel commentator trolling: "Tim Storm's been hit so hard, he doesn't recognize his own mom." Got me to genuinely laugh there.

Yes, there's about 53 million of them.

"...when I slam him, brother, from Jeddah to Aqaba brother, the fault line's gonna open up, as he falls into the Gulf of Aden brother, as all my opponents fall into the Gulf of Aden after I pin him, and as the Dome of the Rock collapses, brother, PRAISE ALLAH the crown prince is a Hulkamaniac, he's gonna let go of all his worldly possessions, put his wives and his children all on the Hulkster's back, brother, and I'm gonna dog paddle to safety, because WHAT CHA GONNA DO?"

SUPERFLY! LOOKIN GOOD, YOU LADY KILLER, YOU!

Oh man, that finding one thing and associating it with the person could be hilarious HEY VIRGIL. HOW'S THAT BIG OL DICK, PAL?

What an episode. Made Jeff Cobb feel like a big deal. Super psyched to be there for his debut next week...

11/5/2004- ROH Weekend of Thunder Night 1-Liger defeated Danielson 11/6/2004- Weekend of Thunder Night 2- Liger & Samoa Joe defeated Danielson & Low-Ki.

"In front of the DOZENS....and DOZENS..."

I hope tyler breeze inducts Liger.

Considering the goober leading it I find that more accurate than the actual Dark Order. And pivoting over to his fiancee, that biting segment with Shayna was dumb when you saw just how fake the blood was. And on first watch it seemed like the crowd was not concerned but just confused by the whole thing. Considering there's no reason why Shayna decided to be a vampire I'm confused by this as well. That and Becky had issues at points covering up her neck which revealed absolutely no bite marks at all. But hey, at least we got a GTA dub over her ambulance scene so it's not a complete loss.

Pretty sure those last two matches were on the same night, across town from each other.

Honestly, do people in Saudi Arabia care about wrestling enough to have something like this? I legitimately don't know. Wrestling isn't exactly new and I kind of feel like any place that wants wrestling already have it. The United States, Japan, Mexico, Canada and to a lesser part the UK seem to be the places who love wrestling. Everyone else is kind of indifferent. Spending the kind of money it would take to push this to places who have not shown much interest in wrestling seems weird to me. Then again, there is a second XFL going on, so what do I know.

MY CUSHION~!

That Shida match with Cassandra Golden wasn’t half bad. This will sound like a weird compliment, but I’ll say it. Golden wrestles like a woman’s version of Roadblock. Basically sloppy big woman wrestler, but has a potential to be molded into something if she isn’t given up on. I think she has a lot of potential. Not enough big women in wrestling today outside of Nyla, and Reina Gonzalez over at NXT who I don’t believe is used much. They should call her back to be used as enhancement talent to give her more TV experience, and when she’s ready do something with her.

You knew I'd bring this one up. Any match with Bull and Aja is sure to be close to GOAT but HH '97 was one of the few nights I was proud to be a fan of pro wrestling.. Rey and Eddie fucking tore this house down.

This is just too cool not to post here. Godzilla vs. Biollante statue, Wonderfest 2020:

"Great question, Shelton!"

"HACKSAW! HOOO! RIDE THAT DILDO BLENDER, TOUGH GUY!" *confused face from man in his 60's who has never ventured onto the internet ensues*

BILLY JACK HAYNES! HOW'S YOUR BENOIT CONSPIRACY WORKI......NICE HAT PAL.

The correct answer.

There's some sort of "backlash" against it within the nerd/social network community apparently and is one of the reasons it's not doing well. What is the backlash? Well, apparently these morons are uncomfortable with women having fighting skills and beating up a bunch of dudes. I hate people.

Ishikawa hates all foreigners, that's why they booked some foreigners. I heard it from this weird guy in twitter, he is me.

I don’t need a match, I just need Jackie Gayda’s horrendous acting to put a smile on my face.
