Griselda is a record label. Westside Gunn is the rapper in question and also has a track named "Lucha Bros". And "Dean Malenko" and a skit that's just an Arn promo, and that's just AEW. I'm hoping Kingston or somebody has some licensed entrance music sooner than later. Anyone criticizing AEW for playing for too small an audience who heard "Kris Zellner"... take a moment to reflect.

Man, The Bar really let themselves go.

Happy Spooky Season!

Too late.

Fun fact: the bassist for Flatfoot 56 (the band that did a version of the old Sheamus song above) once literally in the middle of a song stopped playing in order to shove me into the mosh pit and, in the only time anything like this ever happened in my life, came and found me after the show to tell me how much my energy in the audience was an inspiration. I am far too old to ever have that much energy ever again.

AEW continues to book matches that if you went back in time and told people would happen, they’d think you’re crazy. WWE’s Dean Ambrose will face the guitarist from Every Time I Die in a world title match on TNT. And it won’t completely suck!

I don't like when Board Daddies fight

Lighten the fuck up.

Kingston introduced Butcher as "Kris Zellner's favorite wrestler."

I hit the Good of Halloween Havoc, Andy hit the Bad, and DZ hit the Ugly ?

Holy shit

Should've put him on ignore...

What a great review I wrote.

Ricky Starks is really making a Taka Michinoku out of his chance here. It seemed like he was brought in to feed Darby and he's killing it. Dude's all over Dark going from the ring right to the announce table. He's gotten to stand over the World Champion and made that really made that beatdown about him. He's just got to work in some mid match signature stuff and not be so giving in enhancement matches as he's going to be all over the show for years.

Butcher is perfectly decent for someone who only, in the past year, started to have more than 12 matches in a calendar year. 2016-2018 his matches were pretty sporadic, it wasn’t until 2019 that his wrestling schedule really picked up.

Why? Just let Jericho have a vanity match on a show that’s built entirely around his 30 year career. He’s done plenty for AEW, I don’t see why people are complaining about this. It’s not even going to be a feud, it’ll be a two week program (at best) just like the Private Party stuff - and it furthers the story of Jericho/Hager climbing the ranks since Chaos Project are undefeated right now. It’s really not a big deal.

Anyone who says that are hyped for Dr Luther vs Jericho is a damn liar and is not to be trusted.

What are you looking forward to in 2021? 2020's gone. Spending time with my family and friends. Posting here with the DVDVR MB family. Read more comic books. Always liked tattoos but never got round to having one. Might next year, a tribute piece to my much missed Mum. Going to the cinema for new movies either postponed this year and those that already were 2021 release dates.

As it's the annual Hell in a Cell PPV... The Undertaker's best ever match. Shawn Michaels best ever match. Still the greatest Hell in a Cell match.

Racial bias in sports commentary is definitely a thing.

If agree the pose is very performance center ‘move in a way no human has ever moved before’ and could be moved to something a lot more natural.

Yeah, it should be a fun trainwreck. And Nash is or was pretty tight with Woj/Lowe so we should get some good leaks out of it.

Um okay. I didn't point that out because I thought mentioning Meltzer would reach people or whatever snarky point you're trying to make. I was just contrasting those mentions with WWE, who treats their show as if it happens in a fictional universe where nothing not-WWE exists, including Covid. It's nice to see a wrestling show that takes place in the real world is what I was trying to get across.

Love Starks. Only other suggestion I’d have is he needs to tone down his rehearsed ring entrance body movement shtick. Way too WWE-like. Just walk and be a cocky asshole.

You also don't like to read - look at my post again. Two Schefter tweets - one expressly says "is being rescheduled for later this season" ?

Decent show. Nothing bad at all. Darby vs Starks was very good! It 's exciting to see young midcard dudes going at it and knowing they'll be the uppercard one day. It reminds me of HHH vs Rock back in the day where both guys were just coming up. It's refreshing to have a national wrestling company where it's not just this upper echelon of a few guys and everyone else is meaningless and trading inconsequential wins. Speaking of "nice to see," we got mentions of Dave Meltzer and Kris Zellner on the show. It's cool to see a wrestling company that acknowledges there's a real world outside of it. The sudden Luther involvement was whatever, but it's clear Jericho just wants to wrestle a friend of his on his 3oth anniversary show, so it's cool. MJF/Inner Circle SCUMBAGS COLLIDE segments are just tremendous. I was really hoping he would get Santana and Ortiz mixed up. Bryce Remsburg was not bad on the mic! I'm really lukewarm on FTR's Tully and Arn cosplay act. I saw the Warrior/Rude finish coming a mile away and I'm not sure they needed to cheat to win their first match in this new gimmick. But their gimmick is they're old timey heels so that's what we got. AEW needs to tighten it up with their angles. We had Scorpio going single for weeks and Kaz watching from the sidelines. Now they're teaming again with barely any lip service paid to why. Cody's promo was fine. His entrance is getting longer and more ostentatious. The "wrestling has more than one royal family" thing is so cringe and notice me senpai. Didn't need the "will he or won't he" tease. But again, all that being said, it was okay. Britt Baker was really good! What is it about women's matches that brings out the worst in JR? His only compliment for Red Velvet (aside from saying she's his favorite cake????) was that she's a great athlete. Because of course he would. If you don't know what I mean, look up articles analyzing typical commentary on black QBs vs white QBs. And then Baker is having a tremendous match and instead of saying, "wow, she's been working on her skills in her time off," he talks about how good her arms look and how she must have been working out. Jesus. I shudder to think what got edited off. Funny how he made fun of Excalibur correctly calling a Fisherman's Neckbreaker but not a peep when Taz properly called a jujigatame. THE BUTCHER! Man, nice clubbering match there. He was getting a but gassed but screw it. I'm ready to throw BIG ANDY into the group of guys who can be the next wave. Digging Mox getting the bulldog choke over. Love the fake Nick Jackson stunt foot. Please sign Kilynn King thank you Billy Mitchell's tie changed between shots. Continuity error or some David Lynch shit? Fun promo with Best Friends and Orange Cassidy.

That is no way to treat a Japanese death match legend

I'm just assuming Rippa punched the wall in his sleep like Uma Thurman in Kill Bill.

Making my way through this right now but holy shit that first 30 minutes was incredible. Darby/Starks ruled! Perfect 15 minute sprint that felt very suitably violent for a blowoff but definitely leaves something in the bag for an inevitable rematch. Love Darby's determination and focusing on a body part as a face being both something different that works and very sound in terms of psychology with his finishes. That counter spear was perfection. Excalibur HATES the Bucks kicking old guys whom then make hilarious sounds. First Marvez and now Tony with legendary death rattles that could rival bright red or deep purple Shane McMahon (thinking particularly of the Zayn/Owens beatdown from a couple years back). That pull apart brawl was spectacular and felt just the right amount of chaos. Nyla beating the shit outta job girl made me so happy. It's exactly what she should be doing.

lol there's a little button for it in the top bar between the emotes and the bulleted list buttons. It's a big creepy eyeball. EDIT: I'm gonna take advantage of this post to hype up one of the best discoveries of my life. At one point I got curious about the existence of Chinese Punk Rock, and indeed found some, and eventually found my way to one of the best rock albums I've ever heard, "White Paper" by PK14. Try this, and if you like it, hit the playlist button. It's worth it. The ending is an earth shattering jam.

I had no idea you liked Batman. Is this a new development or like you just discovered the character or what.

Approximately 24-48 hours.

BELUSHI Debuts on Showtime 11/22

AJPW NOAH

I think it was before. They were actually a gift from my brother - he wasn't sure what to do with the other eleven, so he just gave me the whole pile. Maybe that's why they went out of business. They exceeded their titanium spork budget.

Great to see Britt back in action. Good stuff with Red Velvet.
