AEW TV - 8/28 - 9/3/2024 - Strickland of Confusion

I am intrigued by Mox’s rendition of Scott Hall’s speech after interrupting Nitro and I’m curious where that goes -
RIP Sid Vicious (1960-2024)
For Great Justice replied to ChesterCopperpot's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
This is so good, and nails it. Sid Eudy was completely, 100%, unabashedly Sid. All the time. No winks, no meta, absolutely nothing to suggest that he didn’t legitimately show up to the arena that night to dust fools with powerbombs and dab up fans. That’s as pro wrestling as it gets. -
August 2024 Wrestling Discussion
For Great Justice replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
In honor of the master and ruler of the world, and after much deliberation, I present wrestling’s Mount Rushmore of physical charisma Sid Vader Bull Nakano The Great Muta Some were close (Ahmed Johnson, La Parka, Yokozuna), but this is the list. I don’t make the rules. -

This right here. This is where the veil of people trying to sound cool on the early 00’s internet because they thought a given opinion was required to be cool, was lifted. RSPW smart marks losing their goddamn mind for Sid. Because Sid was fucking awesome. -

Aww man. Y’all know how much I’m on record on here over the part 20 years loving and defending Sid, even when internet wrestling discourse was at its lowest, Scott Keith-ian point. Sid, Fucking, Rules. Maybe the most physically charismatic wrestler of all time. Heaven needed fist bumps. RIP to the master and ruler of the world.- 135 replies

So Ospreay is going to “I’m sorry; I love you” Danielson with the TD91 in a year or two when BD really does call it quits, isn’t he. Big foreshadowing of that in the lead up stuff.
-
This was so good I’m so excited for the future. One could argue that the lineage of the AEW title has followed a logical story progression from Jericho all the way to Swerve. Now, for the first time, it truly feels like anyone could be up next. Just like Danielson likes it.

AEW TV - 7/10 - 7/16/2024 - Hangman-ing By A Moment

I see that. A little Single White Female, too (complete with cosplay) -
Forbidden Door III - 6/30/2024
For Great Justice replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in ALL ELITE WRESTLING
I’m not going to hate on the main because wrestling is a three ring circus and I get that Star Wars Movie Lightsaber Dual Stunt Coordinators is a style. It ain’t for me though -
I think in-ring-wise you can hide everyone reasonably well enough in a big plunder 8 man blowoff that it would be ok. But storyline-wise I don’t see how you get there? Normally, “wrecking havoc on the promotion” is a heel angle that calls for the top babyfaces to band together to ward off the threat in Wargames or something. But there’s no way that works here, right? “Sorry your brother died, dude, and I get the promotion overlooked you for a decade, but you gotta stop murdering people” — who cheers that babyface? But at the same time, how do you book a group banded together to save a promotion, as heels? Curious to see where it goes but not sure how you get it the payoff, or what the payoff even is.

I’m here too. It feels like TK is leaning heavily into the “booking for the sickos” thing the last couple of weeks and, honestly, isn’t that the answer? To be a true alternative, just book crazy shit for DVDVR and let WWE do the epic glossy Marvel movie stuff Just go full bore with batshit insane WAR 6 mans we’ve always wanted to see. That’s the audience. Stuff like MJF and the Devil very clearly wasn’t the audience And now, with that said, give me Ishii / Jeff Jarrett you cowards

I can’t think of an Existential Threat storyline that’s worked since the NWO. There’s that one, there’s Stop The Matsunaga, and that’s the list of good ones? It’s the sort of thing that plays well in comics but just doesn’t translate to the wrestling medium. Nexus, Retribution, … The O.G. Yokozuna push was kind of like this and that was awesome, so there’s another. I do agree the group needs a workhorse. Is Ciampa hurt? He’s a fit.

WWE TV - 5/27 - 6/2/2024 - Kairi Sane in Vain
For Great Justice replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in WWE PROGRAMMING
What a fun show. While the Grace reveal was awesome…not sure about Page. Especially after already getting Spears. Like who’s next, QT? But it’s all fun. I love how the rules/physics of WWE as we understand them are relaxed in NXT. It’s fun. -

I am and have been vehemently opposed to breaking up Best Friends. No one wants to see these guys fight. Now, that said, if you want to salvage this, then AEW’s version of Endgame to rescue the promotion from Elite tyranny later this year should have a reunited Best Friends - as the true heart and soul of the company from day one - neutralizing the Bucks while Omega deals with Okada.

Yoooo I just realized that Tony wearing the brace to the draft and the NFL and ESPN being in on the gag would be fucking amazing. Imagine them kayfabing the shit out of it and Mel Kiper is talking about the projectability of the young kid Perry. Quick off the edge, real lunch pail kind of guy but has some off the field issues that have scared some federations away. Oh shit even better if they do it Naked Gun style where TK himself gets up there in full neck brace to announce some random 6th round pick on day 3 and the Bucks jump his ass AGAIN and put him through a table while there’s like mascots and shit freaking out on stage.
-
I think it’s sort of all true The babyface owner/matchmaker getting beat up by heels is a trope as old as pro wrestling itself: Watts did it, Jarrett did it, Von Erich did it, Vince did it… Said babyface then gathers all the top good guys and walks tall over the heels in the big blowoff. So in that sense this doesn’t make TK Jacksonville Dixie or whatever. This is the usual TK deal of revisiting classic territory angles. That’s generally perfectly ok. My thing though, is that I don’t want to see Tony Khan walking tall like Bill Watts. Actually I don’t think anyone wants to see that.
-
Did y’all see that selling? Shad Khan gets pro wrestling more than Jungle Boy does. This was all stupid though. The show reeked of TK having his eye off the ball being stressed to hell all week about which Big Ten offensive lineman to take in the fifth round, then just showed up to work and said “fine, let’s do that” to all of the talent’s shitty ideas.
