I always thought when Punk left WWE he'd have saved enough money so his life would be playing Xbox, watching Blackhawks games, and being with AJ Lee. Maybe work some conventions, get a few acting gigs, that's it. Both him and his wife seem like smart people. But then he decides to go to UFC. Training for that must've cost a hunk of change, and it was an absolute disaster.

I was under the impression that lineal championships don't count title vacancies.

Think they could get away with calling it the Intercontinental Title? NJPW did.

Hearing that Peter David passed away last night. -
They should bring in Kayden Carter and Katana Chance, plus borrow FWC from Stardom( they're on an international tour). With the group you mentioned, that would be a good start for a tag division.
-
Thekla is fantastic. A great wrestler and an incredible personality. I recommend her match vs. Athena on Stardom from a few months ago.
-
I want to make it clear on what my opinion on all this is. I do agree that Dynamite should change its format up. We should see more 5 to 10 minute matches so more people get on the show, especially women, especially Willow Nightingale. I just don't think shorter matches equals near squash matches. I think you have a talented enough roster that you could have a couple of Owen-123 Kid quality matches per show.
-
I don't know if you think they count, but I would say DDP before he was tempted to join the NWO, and Sami Zayn when he joined the Bloodline.They were in a pretty bad place before, and they both had a nice redemption arc.

Look, I've been watching wrestling for 35 years. A lot of that wrestling has been steered by a crazy old psychopath, and people who have learned about booking from him. Forgive me if I don't care to see another talented young wrestler being killed for the sake of elevating some muscle man. (No offense to Hobbs, who is fine) AEW has a stacked roster, filled with talented men and women. Every match should at least be somewhat competitive. That doesn't mean you can't have five minutes matches. A flurry of offense to start, followed by murder works fine. But I'm not interested in watching someone just being used as a punching bag. I will say,though, a massacre is fine if it's part of a larger narrative. Like a losing streak angle, or something like that.
-
That's great, if all you're interested in is elevating Hobbs. But you've just buried Yuta. And pissed off fans of Yuta (of which I am one). Having a good match that keeps both at least credible is far better, IMO.

Flair. I was probably 14 or 15 at the time. I always thought Flair was better than Hogan.
-
I thought the fact that Gabe Kidd is probably going to sign with AEW was one of the factors to why she doesn't want to stay. If that's the case, I really can't blame her.

My favorite part of the show was them completely outdoing AEW in killing kayfabe. "You guys have some actress on your PPV kinda imply wrestling is fake. Well, we're starting a Netflix show where not only are we going to kill kayfabe, but show the complete autopsy of it. And we're going to advertise it right in the middle of WrestleMania! Ha, losers! Tony fumbles again!"

If you want to be a stickler for logic, Thunder Tits should have been Penelope Ford and Megan Bayne's team name.
-
I originally wrote something snarky about you needing to watch Stardom, and then I realized nobody had this problem with knowing who Mina was. It really means TK needs to introduce outsiders better and more often if he's going to include them in his show.

Look, I get that the DR angle sucks, but if fuckin Edge wins the belt, I'm going to vomit. He ain't the one.

mystman replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in WWE PROGRAMMING
But she's not looking for sympathy in the promo. She's blaming herself. Maybe it's a sign of character growth. -
I'm telling you, the answer is we're seeing The Twilight Rider.
-
All of this. I voted a soft no, but frankly the only thing keeping this afloat are Moxley's promos. All the guys are great in ring, but the fact they're being booked like cowards drives me nuts. Why are they running from Darby after he was in a car accident? Pull him out and kick the shit out of him. It's a problem with AEW in general. Great in ring stuff, but angle wise they're just another WWE influenced American wrestling company. Hell, the WWE seems more ground breaking and daring than them.

I don't want to look into, over, under or through Giant Gonzalez. I don't want to see him no matter the perceptive. -
