    Kids don’t like “kid” things. They like cool things. 

    My 4-year-old is super into AEW. His birthday is this week and he wants AEW figures and a ring. They don’t need to do anything to draw kids except putting on good wrestling. 

    I get that making a “kid-friendly” show might appeal to parents letting their kids watch AEW. I’m probably a bad parent for letting my boy watch bloody matches and stuff, but whatever. I know my kids and I know what they can handle. I just know that when I was a kid, nothing turned me off to something faster than having it be explicitly a kids show. 

    Hey, my parents let me watch JCP, UWF, Billy Jack Haynes' five alarm blade job at WM 3 and Headbanger's Ball and I turned out fucking awesome. You ain't a bad parent. 

    I HAAAAAATED being pandered to as a kid, too. I refused to watch Pinwheel because I saw that commercial and heard that theme song and it just screamed "HAY LITTLE KID, THIS SHOW IS FOR LITTLE KIDS AND YOU'LL LIKE IT BECAUSE YOU'RE A LITTLE KID, SEE YA AT 3, LITTLE KID!!!" Screw that. World Class or MTV was on.

    But at the very beginning you had Union Cane getting called a Paper Champion by the media. He was managed by Duke who only had him face jabroni's and Cane demanded that Duke put him up against Balboa who was adamant that he was retired- which is why he took Tommy Gunn under his wing to train him for Union Cane... right?

    Yes. 3, however, is where Rocky is the one whippin' on Mulkeys because Mickey was protecting him. 

    I'm gonna stop there because I don't wanna talk about Mick further than that. ?

    This show cemented for me that Hayter and Darby are two of the most consistent performers in AEW, and that Hayter should be one of the goddam pillars.

     

    The sooner Jamie drops Britt on that stack of dimes she calls a neck, the better. 

    I hope they run it back with Martinez/Hayter. What we got was good, but I think they have another gear to hit.

    Best looking tower of doom spot ever, Punk and Jade both dropping F-bombs, and Deeb's look of disgust as she yanked the "smart" jobber off the apron all made this show for me.

    Serena was absolute gold in that match and that segment. 

    My favorite part of the show was Eddie's promo. Burying the inside baseball references was music to my ears, and I love it when he just unintelligibly mocks/thhhbbbbbts something.  I died when he lined up next the security guards before the segment with Jericho on Dynamite. He just takes the piss out of EVERYTHING.

  6. For me, I'd like to see the belt go to MJF next, then Eddie, then either Punk or Bryan. Getting the belt back to a homegrown talent after that would be best, and I'd say either Darby or Hangman is the first two time AEW champ.

    That said, even trying to fantasy book this is so mindbending in the best way possible. We're absolutely spoiled for choices here. 

  7. Martinez vs Hayter is going to kick SO MUCH ASS. 

    I dig those Renegade Twins. They totally got a flea market nunchuks vibe to 'em. 

    The Ass Boys rule. Austin, especially. I love the fact that with them and 2.0, AEW has a couple teams that could easily fit right in on Memphis TV.

  8. Gimme red onions, green olives and mushrooms and I'm set. I'm the least picky eater you'll meet, though, so I'm down to try anything. Ever since Deadpool came out, I've been wanting to do pineapple and green olives, but I haven't pulled the trigger yet. 

    There's a stoner-themed pizza place down the road from me that makes a pizza that's basically an italian sub in pizza form and goddamn, it's the coolest thing. NUM NUMS.

    In terms of mainstream crossover potential this might mean something and it might not, but we got a puppy at the start of the week and after an evening of bombing around the living room and fidgeting wildly in my wife's lap, he momentarily stopped and paid rapt attention to the entirety of Wardlow's powerbomb symphony ?

    Awww! That's a good boi. 

    Me and Boris, who's a boxer, watch a lot of wrasslin' and basketball together.
