LoneWolf&Subs Posted September 14, 2020 Posted September 14, 2020 Is the cakes guy supposed to be a Sid parody?

Hangman his gear!" *Hangman hiding poorly in the corner* BTE is so soothing between this kind of stuff and the Dark Order shtick. Brodie during the bathroom sketch. OMFG.

We'll be on vacation starting Thursday and were actually thinking to watch this in the hotel if we had to. While that's fine to watch wherever we go we'd rather see this at home.

That's exactly what I was gonna say. Not only that but Chris Daniels looks like he's turning into Troma founder Lloyd Kaufman, facially. 1
LoneWolf&Subs Posted September 14, 2020 Posted September 14, 2020 (edited) I’ve been theorizing that Ross has been drunk on a few recent episodes of Dynamite. His behavior isn’t too dissimilar to his behavior during that 2K Q&A, and it’s hurting the performance of his co-workers. This past weeks episode he sounded clearer though, so I’ll give him that. But on other episodes he’s been a pain in the ass the same way Heenan became one near the end of his WCW run. Now I’ve been okay with Ross dicking around since AEW’s debut, and defending it on a few occasions. But a lot of it now just comes across as the guy in the bar that deserves a fist to the mouth to shut up. I wouldn’t mind him moving into doing more interviews. That’s currently his best strength, and really the best story progression on TV. Edited September 14, 2020 by LoneWolf&Subs

Curt McGirt Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 Wow -- he legit had to sell his gear to pay the mortgage. That is super shitty. 2
matt925 Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 He's wrestling on Dark tomorrow. I am now laughing out loud for real throughout all the dark order bits. Outstanding. "We're so over on the internet right now!" lol 1 1
Jiji Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 YO HE'S A DOPE PROMO. So '80s. Great stuff. Dark has two matches to look out for now after putting on a very good main event last week in Carter/Starks. 5

Death From Above Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 Man that Kingston interview is great, I hope he sticks around. Him and Tony already giving each other shit all the time makes me smile. 1
Curt McGirt Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) I forgot that him and Chris Hero hated each other. They should have gone more in depth into that. EDIT: Also, who was the manager they were talking about spoiling the match in ROH? Nana? Sweeney? Julius Smokes? And for those who didn't watch/listen, Eddie's top Japanese matches are: Misawa/Kawada Ganso Bomb match Kobashi/Misawa from NOAH Chono/Mutoh G1 Climax final from '91 Edited September 15, 2020 by Curt McGirt
Jiji Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) Robbie Mireno of czw looks like the guy he was talking about. I didn't know he wrestled or managed. I just thought he did commentary (poorly) and did interviews (jeeeesus). I was really sad for a second when I thought he was speaking about smokes too. Edited September 15, 2020 by Jiji 1

That skit with him wolfing down those two cakes was so goofy, but I just could not stop laughing. Now, he's cutting classic fired-up underdog babyface promos, too? Congrats, AEW, you've got me caring about yet another wrestler who has been flying completely under my radar. I sincerely hope he does well in there and this won't be the last we see of him. 4
NikoBaltimore Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 Yeah, same here. Between eating the two cakes and that promo I'm really liking him. 1
Curt McGirt Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 I don't get why his name is Megabyte though...

grilledcheese Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 All I can think of watching his promo is "I bet this is what Jumping Jeff Farmer was going for." Anyone ever seen him in-ring? I hope he's competent, as I'm all aboard the Megabyte Ronnie express now. It would be a shame if he didn't have a real solid throwback babyface working style.

My top moment of the year is Hangman's hold my beer Buckshot Lariat, that might be the moment he surpassed the rest of the Elite. 3 1
