    I'm glad BCG/The Acclaimed for all the gold got added to Dynasty. We don't need two sets of trios titles. 

    What are the odds they unify the belts just to split them up again three months later like the Continental crown?

    One of the big winners of this whole fake outrage is Riley Gaines, who swam for Kentucky and  against the trans woman from UPenn who was the first person these creeps decided was a huge problem to society.

    Ugh. I recently became aware of her because I’m a mailman and I keep delivering envelopes with her face on them, begging the elderly to send money to help “protect women athletes” or some such nonsense.

    I figured she must’ve lost to a trans woman to get her into this grift so I looked into it and they tied for SIXTH PLACE.

    When I was a kid (yeah, 40some years ago), boys and girls played in the same league.  Nobody gave a shit because we were just a bunch of kids playing a game.

    I played in a co-ed soccer league when I was around 11-12. There were boys teams, girls teams, and mixed.

    My all boys team was trash. The only three games we won all season was against my sister's mixed team, whom we narrowly beat twice and was very personally satisfying because my sister was an all around superior athlete to me in every respect, and an all girls team whom we fucking DESTROYED.

    Beanie Sigel's The Truth for Homicide.

    Hell yeah. Jack Evans had a banger too. I burnt like a 17 track CD of ROH themes back in like 2007. I downloaded them all with the intros and shit from the ROH message board.

    I don't really recall ROH having particularly good music.

    “Miseria Cantare” for Punk, “The Champ is Here” for Joe, “Personal Jesus” for Aries. “Gimme Back my Bullets” for the Briscoes.

    ”Copacabana”, “The Final Countdown” obviously. Jack Evans theme was pretty good. The Embassy theme kicked ass too.

  6. Something I was thinking about. Everyone agrees that AEW has too many fucking belts, but if you don't count NXT and ROH, they actually have the same number of titles as WWE*. They're even grouped the same:

    • 4 men's singles titles
    • 2 women's singles titles
    • 2 tag belts

    The tag belts are a little different because AEW has a Trios title instead of a Women's tag, but it's still the same number of championships over the same hours of weekly TV. The real problem is that there are 7 ROH titles to NXT's 4 and the ROH titles are all over the main show. That and most of WWE's belts have been around for decades and Tony Khan busts out a new championship every six months.

    *I'm counting belts defended together (WWE/Universal and the Raw/Smackdown tag belts) as one. I also forgot about the FTW belt but decided not to count it cause it's 'unofficial'

    Probably, yeah. Except... Hangman is still active and, as far as we know, still obsessed with ensuring Swerve never becomes world champion. Narratively, he pretty much has to show up and do something at Dynasty if not before.

    Of course, no reason he can't try to screw Swerve at Dynasty and fail.

    It's Swerve's time. Really, it was Swerve's time 3 months ago. It's a new AEW and your top babyface is Will Ospreay and your top heel is Kazuchika Okada, so if they don't pull the trigger on Swerve now it'll be too late real quick.

  8. I think Garcia’s the right guy to beat Christian, but there’s no harm in letting  it run a little longer. Let him run through Nick Wayne and Luchasaurus and have Edge help him even the odds for the big victory.

    Swerve should’ve stayed heel and beat MJF. 

  9. Maybe when Sammy comes back he can turn heel on Jericho again.

    I feel for Santana and Ortiz. The whole split with Jericho seemed set up to give them a big push but they ended up playing second fiddle to the Blackpool Combat Club, then Santana gets hurt in the cage and is out a year.

    As long as they don't change the theme song.

    BRING THE BROOMS

    FIGHT RACCOONS

    I recently finally bought the video game and heard more than ten seconds of the Dynamite theme for the first time. It’s not good.

  11. Disagreed. What killed Wardlow was the lack of direction or plan post-MJF feud. For months he was either not on TV or still squashing jobbers. Should've been defending the title in dominant but non-squash matches on a regular basis.

    I was actually thinking how much more sense the Devil storyline would've made with Wardlow in the Samoa Joe role. Not that Wardlow is a better choice as champ than Joe, no one's making that argument, but in an alternate reality it could've worked.

  12. I was working an indy show the weekend after the Vince limo angle and one of the ring crew guys was insistent that the stunt went wrong and Vince was actually dead. I wish I could've seen his reaction when Vince showed up in the ring the following Monday.

  13. Friend of mine in high school ran into Captain Lou at a restaurant in the Flats in Cleveland. This would've been around 00-02. 

    He signed a bunch of coasters from the bar and my friend gave me one, which I still have.

    guessing a wrestler who can get nosebleeds on command wouldn't have much utility for such a skill since it really wouldn't look great on TV.

    you'd have to be a total loon to try blading around your eye though

    I've gotten nosebleeds constantly my entire life and I never once lucked out and had it happen during a match.

    EDIT: Actually, it happened once in my backyard when I took a Van Terminator on a trampoline, but never during a real match,
