<insert “He’s right, you know” gif> Takeshita is a fucking superstar, I don’t care how fluent or not he is in English I want to see him wrestling In AEW all the time. Also, Jim Ross needs to be informed that “Orient” is racist unless you are referring to a specific style of rug.

That whole Dark episode was Taz and Excalibur talking about everything but the matches.

And they actually pipe that into the arena, unlike some of the backstage segments.

OK, I like that guess for the men.

The whole tournament was an opportunity to build up some of the younger talent and that didn't happen, so...

If this were 1999 WCW, they would book this so that the final is Cole-O'Reilly and then KOR lays down for Cole. But since this is tournament with Owen Hart's name on it, I can't see that. More like they'll have Cole expecting KOR to lay down but it turns into a real battle.

I don't remember mascots at Hershey Park, but I also went there in the 70s, not the mid-late 80s.

It is extremely popular with the dudes on Texas sports board who complain about how there aren't enough Westerns and that everything out there is woke trying to cram feminism and gays down your throat.

Man, I HATED Greg The Hammer Valentine back in the day. Seeing Steamboat chop the shit out of him makes 13 year old JLowe very happy

Been thinking of starting a new Twitter specific to my wrestling fandom and this is a compelling reason to do so.

That's really interesting because for years he was my favorite wrestler based solely off that run. I never actually caught any of his WCW run.

Are you implying the issue I have is that middle-age era between the young, flashy tecnico who is looking to make everybody notice him with high-flying moves and destroying his body, and the old wisened rudo who knows his job, knows how to draw volcanic heat, begrudgingly brings along the juniors, and will bleed if that what it takes? Because that’s fucking scary how insightful you are into my psyche ?

I know I struggle to get him, even though I’ve watched a decent amount of lucha, but in this case he was visibly off on every spot in the finishing segment.

I’m just going to be blunt: Penta fucking sucked in that match. It wasn’t a good match in general but lord the only spots Penta hit were his taunt. I FFWD through Spears-Boulder. Soho-Riho was mostly there until the last 3 minutes. Riho is a fantastic wrestler but she really can’t do facial expressions other than happy. She did wrestle the heel part of the match incredibly well, made Ruby’s finisher look like a million bucks. Kaz-Scorp was a really great match. Post-match was really not.

I wouldn’t go that far but Lethal was definitely doing most of the work. Flair can still hit a couple of his signature spots, but I also never want to see him in an actual wrestling match again.

Or how much they want to be able to trademark.

I got the first PPV when they were doing it that way, and watched some on Spike TV, but I truly could not stand that 6-sided ring.

You're probably right about that, I just know it's been mentioned a lot and not just by Taz. I know it's occasionally brought up that Anthony Bowens played college baseball at Seton Hall.

I've lost count out of how many times they mention that Hook had a lacrosse scholarship to a Division 1 school.

If I were a meme/photoshop person, I would make a tub of plain yogurt with abs and a beard and call it Tony Nese.

On Dark/Elevation...and matches at the Orlando tapings.

"Max, Tony here. If you don't cut out the 2024 shit, well, let's just say that at some point Serpentico is going to win a match"

I'm fairly certain that exact same dude has been front row center with shitloads of bad signs on other shows. I HAD THESE EXACT SAME THOUGHTS AND IDEAS LAST NIGHT!! Have Tony K himself roll out during the first commercial break, give the guy his money back, have him escorted to the upper deck where his ticket is switched with someone excited to watch some wrestling.

So his 2024 reference was about himself, which is what I was thinking, and not about whatever weird Cody Rhodes reference he was making? I hate shooty stuff.
