John from Cincinnati

That’s not fair. For all of Tony’s flaws, who’s cutting 45-minute promos on his air?

Lmao

I bet Hollywood Jack Perry is a Lakers fan. You would like him.

Claudio vs Ospreay next Wednesday. What a match-maker.

Will never understand being anti-musical, but they seem to be leaning away from it

Excited to continue to support the Lady Gaga movie star project. Do I need to watch Joker to understand Joker 2?

Said the same of Punk: none of these people have been saying enough in public and it’s refreshing and demystifying to hear them do so. Waive the NDAs for All Out and let everyone put their cards on the table. People will move on. It’s fine.

Article says Shalla-bal.

Jay’s on the back burner because visa issues would prevent him from working in Canada.

I hate how difficult it is for me to conjure an answer to those questions.

Counterpoint: None of these people talk nearly enough and it’s refreshing finally hearing one of them speak frankly in public about any of this shit. This is newsworthy because as much as we assume this guy feels this way, he’s never said any of this in public (not in print, on video with his own voice) since the big incident because he hardly does media. He doesn’t talk too much. This stuff has festered and grown a life of its own, and it’s demystifying to hear it actually addressed. I wish the rest of the parties involved would do the same. I wish there wasn’t an NDA in place so that shit could be demystified too.

Ronel Blanco has thrown a no-hitter against the Blue Jays.

Gravity and Jose the Assistant too

Slim J has been released.

Shit, just last week he was on TV saying he isn’t terminally online. So many lies!

Woah, people are clipping the seemingly inflammatory stuff and not all the other parts where he was talking about stuff like how Vince wouldn’t have yet him TV with grey in his beard? No wonder everyone is so fired up!

He wished everyone well, why are people so upset? He was just being polite and not no-commenting Ariel for ninety minutes! He knows Ariel doesn’t like that!

They surely knew Helwani was going to ask about this stuff before they let the dog off the leash. And really, not a lot we didn’t already know or assume (aside from that stuff about his last tricep surgery).

The AEW speed championship? Is this bait?

After Black Adam flopping and some Dwayne fatigue setting in, retreating to things people used to like him for and re-upping his relationship with that audience is actually pretty smart. He gained a lot from it when he did it with Cena. And between lucking into this heel stuff that people seem to be responding to, and doing a Benny Safdie A24 movie I get the sense people like him getting out of his comfort zone of the last decade or so. He seems to be gaining a lot out of this. And he still plays it safe by saying he’s playing a heel when he goes on Kimmel.

Fuck that, when do we get to the fireworks factory?!

Aside from that, I really enjoyed Dynamite. I was a moronic doubter about Okada clicking on weekly American TV. But he’s smart and the audience is bought in. Happy to be wrong. I think Ibou of WP said he heard from someone in WWE creative (if I’m recalling this incorrectly, I apologize) that the pitch for him there was Gunther with subtitles, which sounded better than anything I could imagine AEW doing with him given the pace of these shows and how quickly things get moved on from segment by segment. My mistake, this rules so far. Some awkward moments in the Hook-Jericho match, but the right result and I’m glad they’ve followed up on Hook vs Joe. Hope this doesn’t go sideways like so much Jericho stuff. Bring on the E&C tag run in the near future.

She pitched to a video package in a show-opening promo. I might as well be watching pandemic-era Raw. What a strange choice.
