My gimmick is that I hit everyone with this gimmick that I gimmicked.
When the show’s over, I do a bunch of gimmicks, then try to put my gimmick somewhere.

Gonna be honest, if I didn't enjoy the art of people who didn't like my skin color, I'd enjoy like zero art. Especially of the pro wrestling variety.
If you don't get over some of that stuff and just enjoy the work, you'll drive yourself crazy and never enjoy anything.
Yeah, for judging artists, athletes, whatever, for a lot of them it's a spectrum of "maybe questionable" ------------------> "irredeemable human being." You just need to pick where your own line is on a case by case basis.
On the Hogan tip, if you watch any 80s wrestling PPV, I guarantee most of the people on that show have some racism knocking around in their heads. They just haven't yet been dumb enough to express it publicly.
Anyway, you find your own personal line and you don't tell anyone what that line is

That tweet is the funniest thing Hogan's ever written or said. Classic.
As far as wrestlers always using inside terms goes, I'm really enamored with the use of the word "gimmick" as a verb, adjective, adverb, noun, whatever, with multiple meanings. It's like "Smurf."

So this was passed along party lines (shocker) in the FTC. It's not something that was ratified by congress or anything like that, and could change based on the next elections. So it's a little shaky. Get out of your non-compete-based jobs while you can!

We need Jericho to start wearing a durag, carrying the FTW title, and cutting promos claiming Winnipeg and Manhasset are far tougher than Red Hook.

As Peck said in the main thread and my dumb ass posted in the wrong thread, the FTC just banned non-competes with that nullifying all prior ones. The US Chamber of Commerce is gonna sue though for a reason someone will have to explain to me (probably just your typical deregulation bullshit) so there'll be a fight.
Anyway that has better placement on this thread than the main one.
I’d guess the Chamber of Commerce represents businesses and their interests in this late stage capitalism hellhole. I’m frankly surprised any agency tried to pass a ruling that might harm The Job Creators (hallowed be thy names). Go after wrestling’s BS independent contractor shit next please and thank you.

Sure. When a babyface shows up with a garlic necklace and a stake to drive through his heart.
But no, I understand your point. It should just really mean something when Malakai drops a fall.
What I meant was that, apparently, Malakai himself is edging into Mil Mascaras “NO YOB!” territory.

And Cameron Grimes (Trevor Lee) to the release list
I'd guess he's a surefire pickup for AEW or TNA. I put slightly better odds on TNA but I hope it's AEW, as I've missed the Carolina Caveman.

That is an interesting comparison to make. The Universal horror film franchise was 35 deep before the Abbott and Costello pictures, and then there were the three Creature films (late bloomer apparently) over 23-24 years (there were some missing years with no films and my math sucks). I don't know how that stands up to the Marvel franchise but seems like a ways to go if it's gonna compare, right?
EDIT: I guess Technico was just going on the actual Universal Monsters, I added all the horror films listed on Wiki in those years. Look at them as the New Mutants and Morbiuses of the franchise.
I was just going quick and dirty, looking at the history of Abbott & Costello films and how long/how many films it took them to get to their first monster movie (Abbott & Costello Meet Frankestein).
This iMDB list says Universal was 59 deep before they went into comedy with A&C. Either way, it makes sense that it took a long time to get there, as "parody/comedy" is the last phase of a genre.

With his glasses on and that awful mustache, I always thought he looked like Terry Richardson, which is not a good thing.

I can't like this post enough.
Thanks! It's just crazy how the Marvel franchise had five films lay the groundwork for Avengers, four-ish years of releases to build up a universe that then kept on going, and a bunch of suits concerned with nothing but the next quarter directed DC to just jump from a Superman movie to "Dawn of Justice" with no separate films in between. They saw the blueprint right there but ignored it, ostensibly because that would take too long. "Marvel/Disney have that and it's making all that money! Why don't we have that!? Go do it!" It's like telling my kid to go build me a new car because my neighbor has one.

They had 8 years and 21 films to build on before they joined the shared monsterverse.

The only reason they had to go from a company that makes and distributes movies, to a company that deletes movies for the tax write off, is the Fantastic Beasts franchise died on it's arse. JK Rowling's lack of talent killed the company. She's the Vince Russo of Warner Bros.
Need to compile a lit of shared universes that worked and were profitable vs all the attempted shared universes that shit the bed.
All these bean counters and C-suite failing upwards fuckwads see is Marvel and Star Wars branching out with all kinds of content and making money (and, to be fair, those universes have had their share of crap) and they just direct their creatives to "go make that!," like it's that simple, with zero concept of how much real time and effort went into doing it in a way that created good films and shows that built a universe, engaged people, and made them want to buy in to those universes. Like how the DC universe skipped from step 2 to step 5 with nothing in between and then the studio lamented that nobody cared about the Justice League. These guys are just mining for expansive IP they can whore out with no concept of how to take your time and make it good. It's no wonder they think AI is the future of film; they have no concept of the creative process and likely have contempt for those pesky writers, directors, actors, etc.

I watched Late Night With the Devil last night. I'm not as on board with it as some people. Lots of exposition in the intro. The show segments are good and entertaining but that last ten to fifteen minutes kinda lost me. I'm willing to give it another shot but that first watch wasn't it for me.
Same! I just watched it last night and I was severely underwhelmed. Keeps faith in my hard and fast rule: when a movie starts with more than maybe four production company logos, you’re in trouble. I swear, this had eight or nine.

Rate their fits: Bunkhouse match edition
Danielson: gets massive points for the classic “blue jeans with knee pads on the outside” look. Really, the only acceptable bunkhouse/street fight attire. Loses points for wearing his own merch instead of a gimme shirt from the local radio station.
Claudio: black jeans and knee pads on the inside. Real fashion faux pas. Shirt came off and he ended up looking like a member of Too Sexy: A Loving Tribute to Right Said Fred.
Takeshita: stereotypical gear made him look like a guy you’d dispose of in the first level of Kung Fu. I guess he didn’t want to straight up dress like a Yakuza since he does have to go home sometime.
Fletcher: remember when MC Hammer dropped the “MC” and tried to make a comeback with some fake thug 3rd rate West Coast style shit? Fletcher looked like a 90s boy band member trying to get back on track with the same tactic with his yee yee ass haircut and bobo Tims.

The turnaround of match graphics featuring two or more ppl that have immediately before said graphic been in a scrum is a bit ridiculous.
3 hours ago, Zakk_Sabbath said:I'd like to see them hold those graphics back until the usual Excalibur pre-main event card rundown for the weekend shows and the next week.
It's been theorized here that the AEW graphics department works like newspapers do for celebs and politicians. They have every conceivable graphic already done and ready to go. Let's just consider that canon.
"Hey Bob, it sounds like they're booking Orange Cassidy vs Tetsuya Naito vs Hoodfoot in a Punjabi Prison Match." "Aw man, I made that one last week. Challenge me next time!"

Oh lord why do I ever eat anything by Quest? I just had a Quest protein cookie and it's got so much sugar alcohol in it that it feels cold in my mouth, and it leaves a greasy feeling, too. And 15 grams of protein for 220 calories is a shitty trade-off. Just trash.

Also needs to drop that affect-UH that you hear a lot-UH nowadays where any word that ends in s hard-UH consonant-UH has a UH at the end-UH.
Anyway, I think TK has the self awareness to know he can’t act and is an awkward guy in general and can’t be a regular character on screen. I mean there’s a reason he had no lines last night.
