  1. I feel like we regularly get to this point every year. It’s tough to make the “what would ____ do with the title” argument. There is no way to know what the stories competent or an ill advised creative team would have come up with.
  2. I’ll triple post just like next year will be Cody’s third rumble win
  3. John and I are two separate heads from the same seven headed Dragon
  4. Yeah, I’m excited for her to main event WrestleMania again Rhea Ripley for some reason
  5. WWE is the company that values stories though
  6. Part of me thinks this is the start of a poorly done Daniel Bryan or Kofimania attempt. Get the millions of RhodesScholars begging for him to cash in his Royal Rumble chip to make it a three way. He just needs to take on mr positivity, HHH, beforehand.
  7. Please keep suggesting/ predicting dream matches!
  8. So is a Cown a Cow Gown and was Danielson responsible for this misspelling?
  9. Thanks friend! I’m aiming to watch that again or another match soon! love you Matt. Thanks for the kind words. Aiming at getting myself Taco Bell with extra creamy jalapeño sauce and a side of shrimp larva.
  10. I’ll always have Kingston vs Punk. Net positive.
  11. EDIT: how the hell did I end up in this thread?! ugggh. Must See Matches is a fun podcast even though I often disagree with their critiques. sorry folks.
  12. I think the issue was less whether he could or could not say anything regarding the lawsuit but the poor optics of your executive saying “I haven’t read it” and “I don't even want to get bugged down in the negatives, just want to focus on the positives." Not a great look, BUT to his credit he did say “Everything possible. And that is a very important thing to us, a very important topic to us. It’s as simple as everything possible” when asked about what they do to keep workers safe, which I would say comparatively to what else he said was a better answer. It’s a near lose-lose situation that requires a heartfelt response by a much better an tactful orator to skillfully manage. Saying that, these are allegations of human trafficking and rape. I don’t care if the executives representing that company are in a situation to look good or not. We need to make sure that truly evil individuals do not have the power within that company to once again be able to ruin innocent lives. That’ll come hopefully with the court case and pressure from fans and press to make right and fix the broken system. Sorry for the quoting. I’m riled up and continued what you were saying.
  13. When he says it’s time to play the Game it’s likely not a sudoku or a word puzzle.
  14. Wait, do we know if HHH can read? Maybe we’re jumping to conclusions.
  15. HHH - Handles Harassment Horribly please, no standing applause. We got not have so much time and let the other posters get an opportunity to post. Save your loud cheering and whooping for the end.
  16. Holy smokes that’s the type of typo that could get me killed!!!! Please don’t show Willie Mack!!!!!!!!
  17. Wait, did Tony Khan in an Afro wig and sunglasses address a sexual assault allegation during a press conference better than HHH? Is TK for better or worse the presser GOAT?!
  18. Yeah, no idea if it was a *BOTCH!!!!!!! or a planned failed move. But it worked perfectly with the story they ended up telling.
  19. Long day but caught Collision on a dvr type recording. Very good wrestling television show. The type of fun variety I like. OC vs Komander reminded me of a fun CHIKARA match. Technical lucha with fun gimmicks and shenanigans sprinkled in. Two women’s matches! Look at that. Tony comes through. Deebs is awesome. Glad she is back. Excited for her to mix it up in high profile matches. Kingston vs Mack was ugly delicious. Classic Eddie underdog but King Road Tributing his way through. I was worried about Willie for a second with him not backflip if and landing on his head, but they did a good job making it work because of the knee. Was very well played and made the match even better. Danielson is a prick and hates Eddie. Love it! Bryan Danielson vs Yuji Nagata I’m jotting down as a MOTYC. I absolutely adored this. Yuji still has it and was really getting me excited with his rising and lowering up and down the top rope. I will tell lil Octopus about this Danielson AEW run when he is older. Forgot to mention the opening tag. Good stuff. Cage Match was very fun. I liked the dynamic of starting outside of the cage, the swerve of thinking we’re getting Briscoe, and the actually getting a beat up Garcia. Who might I add sold wonderfully throughout the match. Daniel Garcia was a real highlight. I like the dynamics of teams where escaping can actually put your team in peril. The late part with Buddy climbing back up really made sense and added to it. I also don’t care as much for door usage, but it can be done well and I liked it here. You have to carry the momentum of the match and have everyone down or something. It worked even in the flawed way. The mist was cool. Loved the ending with a returning Mark. Good guys hug. They really feel like the Collision Crew. House of Black still look strong. In summation: Neat.
  20. I’m watching Collision on tape delay and derped back in and out on the Rumble. Caught the ending. Very happy. Give me Cody vs Heyman and or Roman promos. only thing I saw other than some clips on Reddit. Is it worth watching in full later on?
