I'm a Bronson Reed fan, but damn did I hate the psychology in that match. At some point, you have to realize you have enough power moves in your ground game to stop taking stupid risks off the top rope. You outweigh Gargano by a considerable amount, keep working the powerbombs, suplexes, and drivers. Fine match put together very poorly.

I totally agree. That dominating pinfall was the exact cherry she needed to put on top of that match. No doubt, just a smashing finish.

So true. I marked out for WALTER reacting to Ciampa kicking out at one point not with some incredulous facials towards the nearest camera, but immediately to selling the arm. He is so great at everything pro wrestling.

I assume Whatley was in one class and Brickhouse was in the other so they could say there was Black representation in both legacy classes. Both guys have some stuff that I love but putting them in the same group as Dick the Bruiser, Gary Hart, and Dr. Death is pretty bananas.

Like Roman Hamrlik at the NHL deadline.

Trump is in the HOF and he looked pretty bad in that match against Rosie O'Donnell.

They could push back the tag title match and do MSK-GYV if necessary.

I know it's a high bar, but the choo-choo effects might be the most bonkers thing they've done with the Thunderdome.

Imagine five Villano-sized Mongos all trying to run the ropes at the same time.

I'll bet there are a lot of people on this board who would like to see Barbarian vs. Super Calo. I'd be down with Mongo in a gauntlet match against various Villanos myself.

You know what, my immediate thought when I walked by the TV and saw him with that gear was Sami but you're absolutely right. He looked like the troubled cousin who shared his mom's cigarettes with Otis.

Why hasn't anyone mentioned KOR looking rather silly in his freshly-starched Ride the Lightning tee and Sami Callihan jean jacket vest?

Technico, I'm on board with most of the guys you listed but Bailey is someone I've never been able to get into. What exactly do you like about him? Maybe if I revisit with a different perspective I can get it. Are there any particular matches you would recommend?

Deangelo Williams in Impact.

That plug killed me.

Baba on commentary really is an ASMR dream.

Great suit, bad tie.

Everything unravels when he sees how Missy Hyatt has aged.

I really enjoyed selling Lashley kicking out of Braun's powerslam by saying, "ONLY A FEW MEN HAVE KICKED OUT OF THAT MOVE!!!" Talk about making it sound strong.

YOU BEAT ME TO IT

Scott D'Amore calling someone a "mark" on Impact last night was one of the most unintentionally funny things in a while.

The Wrestling's Main Event part is what appeals to me. That's awesome.

Until it is revealed that she has been leading Ric on and the actual father is either Vince, Hornswoggle, or the Boogeyman.

I caught that as well. He might as well have just said, "I'D LIKE TO THANK EVERYONE IN THIS BUILDING TONIGHT EXCEPT FOR QT MARSHALL" just to save some time in setting up the turn.

I cannot agree more with what you said about Trent. Him coming back and getting over on Kip and Miro would have worked REALLY well. It was still fun, especially with Orange coming out of the cake a la Miro at the Lashley/Lana wedding, but Trent returning would have been perfect.
