  1. I don't think he stuck around long but Hidaka was a fun addition to ECW's juniors scene to break up the Tajiri/Crazy/Guido series. Great sprint of a match too, built well, both guys looked good, and it ended at the right time
  2. I was just having some fun and don’t actually want to jump into this but we do have an idea of what they want (keep it over 500k) and half the discussions on this board are pointless speculation
  3. For real though Darby is attempting a serious physical endeavour while already banged up and without a ton of training and body fat for energy/warmth so good luck to him. Apparently you can’t make a climb without a group to vouch for you so he shouldn’t be able to do anything too dumb but a dude died climbing solo 20 years ago. Hopefully he’s been training enough that he doesn’t get altitude sickness at base camp and can’t do anything
  4. I keep coming back to this interview. I can't tell if it's foreshadowing a heel turn or just adding fuel to the fire for Gable to eventually unseat Gunther. Or heck, have Sami win at Mania and then Gable challenges and wins the title on the RAW (Raw After Wrestlemania). Dude's been doing such good work that I almost want him to go straight to challenging McIntyre because I think those matches and promos would rule but he's been on a losing streak so it wouldn't really be justified. Also, for a brief second I wondered if he would join Imperium but no, then I thought they might shove him into the tag title whatever with Otis and that actually seems plausible
  5. Checked out some highlights and it was a hot show! Mone and Okada will breathe new life into those divisions and Ospreay is earning every penny so far even though he’s already fallen into the FTR trap of giving fired up promos about how well he’s going to perform which seems counterintuitive to me
  6. Joaquin Wilde hit another amazing dive last night, I timestamped to it https://youtu.be/AAm0nswRe80?t=91
  7. That’s a good point. I try to find a balance, enjoy it in the moment and think about it more afterward
  8. That’s interesting, do you mean you think there’s more marks as opposed to smart marks in wrestling audiences again? What part do you think they don’t realize is fictional?
  9. The Scorpion King shoots an arrow with a fist on it that hits this guy and sends him flying through the ceiling. That's high cinema
  10. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7k7iJFHMm6Q&ab_channel=WWE Chad Gable's post-match interview. Good stuff
  11. I think there’s some intention behind heating up Gable at the same time as they’re building Zayn and then pitting them against each other. Maybe a Gable heel turn on Sami? He’s in need of a character change as it is
  12. Some fine Greek theatre pro wrestling with Seth and Drew and later Cody who even broke out the waterworks Lynch/Morgan was rad, solid showing from Liv Turning Maxxine's flubs into an angle is better than ignoring them, plus now Candice LeRae has something to do. I read Dupree's response to the internet on 411 and it was self-aware and confident so now I want her to get better and succeed (in NXT) Stark and Baszler/Kabuki Warriors was pretty dope but it was heel vs heel so nobody cared Goddamn, another month of R Truth and the Judgement Day? They built the IC title and the gauntlet match throughout the night and by the end I wanted to see Gable go against Gunther as much as Zayn. Match itself was really well executed, every guy paired well with the others since they've all been bumping around this division for a while. Nice reminder that Ricochet is incredible and they probably could be using Bronson Reed a little more. Interesting ending with Zayn/Gable, another split crowd reaction for two underdog babyfaces but they still got the crowd there by the end. I did a little fist pump when Sami went over although I agree that Gable has earned a way into the match and there's no better way to get the title off Gunther and keep him dominant than having not one but two underdogs beat him
  13. I don't care who the asshole is in all of this, sometimes assholes are right and either way you have to find a way to work with assholes especially in wrestling. I think it's a failure on the part of both parties that guys like Miro aren't used to even half of their potential. I also think that after being forced to do bad creative in WWE that some folks would be reluctant to trust in the process in AEW when they have creative control
