AEW TV - 4/16 - 4/22/2025 - The Hook Brings You Back
caley replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in ALL ELITE WRESTLING
I always liked when they played 'Disarm' at the MTV Awards when it was really popular, but turned it into a scream-y, feedback-y 2:30 mess then swung his guitar at the microphone and seemed to trip over the chord on the way offstage, rendering it a lot less cool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAPPciGdvPY It was a funny middle finger to MTV (Whom likely pressured them to play it) but not as good as Nirvana wanting to play 'Rape Me' on the awards and being told not to and the supposed panic in the production room when they played the opening bars to it, before playing the agreed-upon 'Heartshaped Box' -

They should actually bring Bischoff out (The heat would be NUCLEAR) then have someone popular (Hook, Toni, Swerve, Darby) run him out of the arena. It would be a great moment and I'm sure Bischoff would do it for any amount of money. -

I really wanted to watch tonight, but either (Canadian) USA didn't air it or my DVR didn't record it. Either way, I don't get to see it. -

There used to be a wrestler with a local fed whom, when they toured through here, rolled out of the ring and threw up on the floor. And I posted on their messsageboards about how impressed I was that he was able to work through it and one of the regulars (We only saw them every 4-5 months or so) of the fed was like "Uh, don't be impressed, he does this almost every match." So I guess the guy just liked to party and to wrestle. -
"Where's my ice cream van?! What are you talking about?"

I THINK they showed Swerve once more looking angry before the final thing and mentioned. EDIT*: Jay White was beaten up offscreen as cover for his real injury. So it never happened but it did. But no they never showed it. EDIT*8: I don't think so. The Gunns got hurt, came back as faces with no mention of the rest of the group, then disappeared again.

Reminds me of there being an 'Old Town Road' in Sicamous, BC and fans of the song kept stealing the sign, so in a move with unusual foresight for a small town, they just started selling 'Old Town Road' signs and apparently made a lot of money. Which also reminds me of when the 'Weed Man' yard maitenance company first opened back when I was working in a fast food place and the guy came in to eat and had this exchange: Clerk: So you're the Weed Man, huh? Weed Man: Yeah, haha, I guess so. Clerk: The WEED Mannnnnnnn! WM: Uh yup. Clerk: [nodding] The WEED MAN!! WM: Uh huh. Oh. Ohhhh....that's why people keep stealing our signs.

I'm pretty over the whole Death Riders deal, but ONE thing it absolutely deserves credit for is improving the character and presentation of Claudio by a million percent. The ominous opera entrance music, the ring jacket, the no-frills tights and ABSOLUTELY the German (?) promos; everything about him has been improved immeasurably. Now I think he needs to win some matches (Him being the constantly-defeated gatekeeper from Mox is the only thing hurting his aura). As much as I'm cool on the Death Riders, I wouldn't be upset is if Mox ever loses the title, for Claudio to take over the leadership of the group, surrounding himself with a few more like-minded (European?) followers.

Haha, that's amazing! Also, somehow the original is dirtier-sounding, like you could get chlamydia from listening to it.

As a kid I could NOT figure out the Roddy Piper song, I liked it but could not figure out how the chorus of "For everybody" made any sense (I DID figure out that "kiss my trash" was a cover for "Kiss my ass" even when I was 11 or so) but the chorus completely baffled me "For everybody? Does he mean that the song is for everybody? Is he saying he's standing up for everybody? So whey does it sound like an insult" and it wasn't until many, many, many years later that someone on here hipped me to the original version.i' Since just about everything on there is a cover song/reinterpretation, I've often wondered the same for 'Grab Them Cakes' because it seems way more, uh, adult (?!) for this album ("Once you get started then it's hard to stop you just go for your partner's you-know-what") than anything else, but I never found one.

As with the Hulk song being a recycled Bonnie Tyler song, the Piper song being a remade song, this is ALSO a remake, of sorts, of an insane NRBQ song about Captain Lou https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyjAqBy4keM

So many Cero Miedo taunts in that third one!

I HATE these types of things (WWE does it all the time, too) where we're supposed to act like these guys don't speak/text/talk outside of a wrestling show setting! So MYP invites MJF into the HS and they don't immediately contact him and go "Uh...no!" but rather wait an entire week for the next wrestling show before coming out and going "Actually we don't want him!" So these guys were just COMPLETELY out of contact with each other for a whole week?! I think my favourite thing of the night was when Blake Christian stuck his hand down his tights, then licked his finger and Tazz goes "Uh, that was kinda gross actually. It was really disgusting." and just seemed SO put off by it. So, do I have this straight? Aussie Open go on hiatus because Mark Davis is injured. Davis comes back and goes after Kyle Fletcher, verbally trashing him then teaming up with the Callis Family's enemies. Callis acquires (?!) Davis' contract and Davis is his reluctant heater. Davis is a less-reluctant heater. Davis completely forgives Fletcher and helps him. Is that it? The Joe/Hook/Wrestler group is really fun, really natural and entertaining together AND have a terrible name and terrible entrance music. Also they should be doing SOMETHING?! Going after Mox, going after Hurt Syndicate, going after Learning Tree.
