with Mace and Mansoor showing up in Uganda to battle Lord White, I'm pretty sure Lord White has my vote for Best Heel in the 2024 RSPW awards

It would have been dope to see her on those early networking shows with celebrities chiming in on top WWE moments or even any of these new WWE documentaries with random celebrities showing up

She's biracial, so they get a 2 for 1 on their oppression scorecards. If they fill the scorecard, they get a free sandwich from Mission BBQ.

From the days of Dark Horse I could never imagine buying an Aliens comic book, Hickman and Ribic is reason enough for me to buy an Aliens comic book. Also announced today was Jason Aaron, Paul Davidson, and Alex Lins on an eight issue Namor series. I don't know if I'm completely sold on it yet but I am intrigued.

The list: Bobby Orr - once Mario Lemieux - once Connor McDavid - once Nikita Kucherov - once Wayne Gretzky - ELEVEN times

The last time we saw Hayter on TV I think she and DMD were still aligned - maybe a situation where Britt talks that shit, and Hayter backs it up for her could be the best of both worlds? At least until Baker is healthy. I didn't even know she was hurt until someone mentioned yesterday, I thought she was just taking a break and possibly aiding in Cole's rehabbing and so forth

We've got to keep level heads and look at all sides here. Who's to say this isn't a huge misunderstanding, and that the Oklahoma republicans weren't simply opressing Nyla for being Native American?

The Final Shape Raid is launching June 7 which is only 3 days after the expansion drops Datto just tweeted that one of his raid team members booked his wedding for June 7 (which was done pre-Final Shape delay) So.... yeah...

Power move - send the Athletic Commission an invoice for their publicity stunt.

Totally understood. I mean I am not completely anti government regulation. It pretty much saved MMA in the United States (positive or negative depending on where you sit on the fence). It also has saved a few lives when abnormalities came up on blood work and brain scans. It also gave the boxing world one of the most hilarious fight card cancelations back in 1998 when the Holyfield vs. Henry Akinwande card was called off in New York cause Akinwande came up as Hep B positive, a fighter on the card was 21 weeks pregnant, and Ray Mercer couldn't get medically cleared. So the world was spared a 36 minute clinch fest stinker. However, stuff like that is few and far between. When it comes to pro wrestling, usually it's something like Chris Cruise being an utter rat and snitching to the Maryland commission over blood. Nothing that can be considered halfway useful.

Yeah I was mid-tangent and my wording went all to heck so thank you for saying this, I meant that if Oklahoma was going to fine Nyla, TK should pay it, but I'm very much in favor of not paying it whatsoever because it's a bullshit sanction for a bullshit rule from a bullshit commission full of bullshit grifters. State commissions don't do a damn thing for wrestlers aside from take their fees each month and a cut of each show's gate. If all they're there for is to collect a cut and do nothing else, get rid of them, especially when they're doing nonsense like this.

Finished it. Fucking loved it. More than that, holy shit, my hypothesis was right!!! This was so perfect. It basically felt like FO5. In fact, I have no idea what you even do for the next FO game with the series giving so much information in the first season. It’s just amazing how well they pulled off the humor, look, sound, and really everything about the FO universe. I don’t even know if you can call this an adaption since it’s basically a continuation of the story from the games, but it’s the best game to screen translation ever. I think even better than The Last of Us. I’m definitely going to rewatch this with my wife since she seemed sold by the first episode. There are so many Easter eggs and humorous bits that I want to remember. Finally, props to this whole cast. They’re amazing. I got a big pop out of Johnny Pemberton being in this and now, who knows, he either got the immortality serum or…the FEV. For hilarity’s sake I hope it’s the latter.

Is Henry Cavill still not the Witcher?

Deonna Purrazzo is a natural heel. There is nothing about her that says babyface. That is her issue, and not anything she is doing wrong. Her in ring skill set and especially her mic skills seem pretty apparent. Further, she came in as an awkward babyface to challenge a heel champion who is seen by at least 98% of the audience as a babyface. None of that is on Purrazzo. I do sense from her promos that Deonna will be an official heel shortly, so no sweat. Fair enough you didn’t like the match, but Alvarez’s reaction was unnecessary as per usual. His weekly burial of the Division has become plainly obvious for awhile now. Im not sure I understand agreeing with him but seeing ‘More’ as the solution. I like the efforts of many in the Womens Division, but what or who is lighting the world on fire in need of more segments? This argument has been going on since the beginning. Does hindsight tell us Big Swole and the rest of the original division just needed more time? More time should be advocated for performers killing their segments and making the most of their minutes. If you’re clamouring for more from the Division, try ROH on Honorclub. So too anybody in the first three years wanting more - all your favourites are there - Nyla, Diamanté, Velvet, Kiera, Shida, Hirsch etc. I totally agree they should’ve waited on Mone’s debut. But… it is what it is, and we move on, and Mercedes promo was pretty clearly much improved on the previous weeks. That’s a positive sign no matter what the previous folly. If you, very fairly, have disliked much of Mercedes talking like the rest of us, are you sure you have a want for promo battles with Baker? That'd require as big a carry job as the match, but vice versa. No reason to fret, let's just be patient for the healing, and Hayter v Mone will be as wonderful as we both suspect.

I've watched maybe several dozen combat sports events emanating from the state of Oklahoma. This may be the first time I've heard of them having a commission. Maybe it's probably because everyone purposely avoids it and tries running casinos on a reservation (they have the third best Miami behind Florida and Ohio). Now that said, the only thing I would disagree with is paying any type of fine. On that, I would tell them to fuck off because AEW didn't try to sneak it by you. Yes, commission forms are commission forms. However, it ain't drug testing. The promotion knew they had a trans wrestler. You know who also knew? Literally everybody who follows pro wrestling. They didn't sneak it by you. So yeah, you weren't paying attention. Thus, that doesn't justify any punishment. I think this was a few years ago now, but when Patricio Manuel (formerly Patricia Manuel) chose to turn pro after a very lengthy amateur career as a female, Andy Foster didn't put out a press release or any form of communication as the commissioner for California, And you can say, well that's California. Except Andy Foster is from Georgia and as southern as one could get by his accent. Hell, it's probably why out of all the commissions, California has the least shittiest one out of all of them and been the most progressive in terms of fighter safety and necessary rule changes. This is purely driven by, "who can we embarrass and how?" The commissions survive purely off money from other entities. The only way to force change is freezing them out. Continuing to run there is just going to embolden them. I think one of the worst things Tony could do is subject his talent to that anywhere on the globe they run.

“Matt Sydal: he’ll do anything (in the ring) for an extra buck”

OMG I made that joke about Umaga refusing rehab back in the day. "WWE want me to go to rehab and I said GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH SAMOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

Unrelated to wrestling but it kinda sucks that the Winehouse song that gets played the most in the US is Rehab because she has some other really good songs

Dr. D was too busy with homophobia to get into the finer points of nutrition, and that's a damn shame.

YES. The belt is the exact shape as Cody's tattoo and we know how well-received that's been.

Dude if you told me this was a line from like an early '80s Dr. D promo id have totally believed it. That's tremendous

I missed The Limey on the list. Yeah, Ghost Dog is in great category (see whichever year I picked it for the movie club)

Thanks a ton for this - truly looking forward to this data being twisted later on by bad actors. "Actually, UFC, NXT, Raw, and Smackdown are four different promotions so really AEW is #5 not #2 if you think about it"
