What would his finisher be?

[Octopus]

EDIT: it double posted. Uhhhhh. Do you prefer the ramp going to the top of the apron or a traditional ringside?

I don’t know what move it is.  But it is called “The Moustache Ride”.

Not all the time but going to the apron always leads to some fun spots, generally I prefer no Ramp and an aisleway

if Coach Tony was going to bring in a heavy on his behalf, i'd rather he pick somebody from Ring Ka King and make that a part of AEW's canon. but all of the Indian wrestlers were pretty terrible, so.... shrug.

did WWE ever do the ramp-to-apron setup? i remember the first time i saw it was on a WCW VHS tape and thought it was awesome.

If I'm remembering correctly, only in Toronto. Was it at the Maple Leaf Gardens?

I distincly remember seeing in on Prime Time Wrestling occasionally. In fact, I think I used a shoe box to rig up something with my old LJN ring in an attempt to mimmick it.

So I will only attend wrestling events if they are in one particular arena, because its close to my house, parking is easy, and I don't like going into DC. Well AEW is FINALLY running it in June for Dynamite so I get to go to my first AEW show, very excited.

You piqued my interest so I checked, but I can’t find a single show in June anywhere near DC.  Little help here?

Darby Allin got hit by a bus when crossing the road. Thankfully he's okay.

it's been long enough, someone can rip off the Mass Transit bus driver gimmick

They are going to EagleBank Arena in Fairfax on 6/19, it was on the scroll during Collision. Tickets on sale Thursday.

Let's all say it together: 

GODDAMMIT ZENDRAGON!!!!

I promise you there is an obese dude working a death match fed who is more than willing to be a human blood bank for that concept. Just give Darby a shiv made out of a piece of wood and a scalpel blade and tell him to yell "HE'S GONNA DIE!"

Big Bus Man was like how Mick Foley went with Cactus Jack because he didn’t think he could be Dude Love from his debut

1) I misread that about three times as "Jerry Flynn" and wondered when Lightning Foot got into marketing

2) PBR the beer or PBR the bull riding promotion?

I saw bull riding/rodeo on TV at my gym and my first thought was how prevalent, yet somehow under the radar, CTE must be in that sport.  Dudes' heads are just WHIPPING back and forth.

[Doragon]

PBR the bull riding promotion.

AEW women's roster gets another addition

 

[AxB]

They should bring Megan Bayne back, create a Women's Tag division and make Bayne & Brick into the distaff Skyscrapers.

[The Natural]

Thinking of the most consistent AEW gimmick match with little to no duds, I'd say the Texas Death Match is #1 then Anarchy in the Arena and the Steel Cage match. Blood & Guts an honourable mention. The Light's Out match between Orange Cassidy and Adam Cole is one of the worst matches in AEW history.

I really want a Road Warriors/Skyscrapers/SST/etc type team so bad. I’ve said it before, I want to see some fools get wrecked. And, in pro wrestling, one of the best ways to see fools get wrecked is by a tag team comprised of two big, strong, scary dudes/dudettes.

I miss Megan Bayne.

Even though I prob shouldn't, I still say Kamille's name the way Bill Cosby used to say his wife's name in his act. 

[Matt D]

Stat, Bayne, Kamille, Stoke. That’s the play.

Every damn time I read her name, I hear Eddie doing his Cosby impression.
