Well, SummerSlam is on Saturday, and we're a few weeks away from All In! 

But by far the most fun storyline of the summer is Sean Morley losing the trademark on his in ring name:

Little bit in the same general decade when Val Venis was last relevant, but I was just re-watching Adam Copeland vs Malakai Black Barbed Wire Cage Match where Adam entered to Slayer.

This got me thinking, aside from Sting entering to Seek and Destroy, what bands (that the fans would give a shit about too) could middle aged wrestlers enter the ring to when they really mean business?

NWA's Straight outta Compton, 2Pac's Hit em Up and DMX's Bring Your Whole Crew to name a few, but please give some ideas where TK could throw money at next!

Also, I was so thrilled that Dance with the Dead's track was The Outrunners theme at ROH's recent Zero Hour. It's a newish band for a team that definitely doesn't mean business, but I appreciate good music when I get to hear it!

I have no idea what to make of the “Timeless” Toni Storm gimmick. Apparently, she is extremely over, but it looks like grade-a wrestlecrap to me. The weird promo last night was a total turn-off.  To be fair, I had the same reaction to the Cole-MJF angle last year (which I mostly only saw after Cole got hurt and they kept the angle going).

I think it’s time to admit AEW isn’t for me and i am ok with that,

My answer to this will always be Knuck If You Buck.

Need to play M.O.P's Ante Up right now!

There was a new two-story playground installation on the morning news and I had to explain to my mother about the character Frank Reynolds and him getting stuck in the circular play bars one time 😄 This JUST happened. I'm dying over here.

"God-fearing" and "anarchist" are exact opposites, Mr. Valbowski. Which I'm sure is what he will now go as, since his other name is taken.

It's too bad Roddy Piper's not alive to run in on the match and hit Mac with a box of Invigoron.

Uh what about "I HAVE NO USE FOR THIS THING CALLED GOVERNMENT"...as he pays his internet and phone bill to use social media with government regulated currency?

Driven by hatred!  It’s ALWAYS projection with these people.

You just know Morley is going to go full sovereign citizen and claim the trademark doesn’t count because of some capitalization issue.

I think he's actually already done that.

My office had to deal with one of these kinds of jerks yesterday, who wanted to pay his [redacted for the sake of my job] with gold. Because he didn't want to give actual currency and felt we should take gold, because gold is better than currency in the event of a socioeconomic collapse. Like buddy, in the event of a socioeconomic collapse, my office probably isn't gonna be open.

These carny-ass gold selling companies always make me laugh.  If they truly thought the economy was going to collapse and gold would be the only thing between them and death at the hands of barbarians roaming the wasteland, wouldn’t they horde it instead of selling it for eventually-worthless paper money?  That side of the political spectrum is just grifters all the way down.

Nothing's really stopping the Barbarian from roaming around hitting people with the Kick of Fear as it is, aside from his own benevolence.

Did he walk in with a bag of gold coins or ingots?

My staff member said coins, which disappointed me. Commit to the bit, bring me an ingot!

I really hope your [redacted] is basically a company that has something do with spices as I once read back in sixth grade social studies that spices are extremely valuable for trade.

You should have told him that when society collapses, forget gold because potable water will be the only true currency.

Then you should have told him to send you his bank account info because you have a lead on a well deep in the Appalachians that would make you both rich after the end of society happens.

So when does Darby try doing this spot?

 

Sorry for the double post, but the women's rugby sevens at the Olympics might have made me a rugby fan. That whole event went hard.

This guy over here is trying to get the Barbarian to get after me for my significant stash of saffron!
