For Great Justice

When QT started talking about "being plugged into the back" I thought he was going to bring out Stroman to confront Big Show

Speaking of Punk If we accept HITC 98 as Jim Ross’s best piece of work ever, and the end of Bash at the Beach 96 as Tony’s (and I do on both), Punk’s entrance at MITB is Cole’s, right? He nailed it.

I saw “The worst Fire Emblem is better than the best Paper Mario” which is just goddamn bullshit and Thousand Year Door is a top five all time JRPG

I can’t tell you exactly why but Angelico walking out living his best life hitting the Bernie lean is just my favorite thing

From the gear to the promos to Kenny’s facial expressions, it’s obvious that they are going for a Globogym vibe. It’s working IMO.

I’m impressed she took Amtrak from Orlando to Penn Station

Angelico just did the sickest cutter sell I might have ever seen in the Dark: Elevation man. Jeez. That will be GIF'd.

I never even thought of Sammy/Miro but hell yes to that

Who books feel good moments better than AEW? That Fuego segment was fucking awesome.

Sorry buddy. On this one, you’re…on your oooooooown

I can get down with this idea where Omega loses both the AAA and Impact titles via shenanigans and then works himself into a shoot (brother) demanding a “clean” match with Page for the AEW, which he loses clean in the middle due to lack of Elite interference.

Adrian Street. The idea of a Goldust gimmick that works British style sounds amazing but I’ve seen basically nothing

The Christian TNA matches are all good but need to be watched with some context in my opinion. He’s well established now as one of the best 15 minute TV match guys in the past 20 years, but that template didn’t really exist until this TNA run and his return to WWE, the big ECW run and later years. He wasn’t that guy for the vast majority of his first big WWE run (there are exceptions). So the TNA Christian matches will feel like “Christian matches”, but that was all before this was a well known thing. YMMV.

Count me into the group that thinks Christian is getting stretchered to end this show with the announcers selling “what does this mean for All Out?! Tune into Dynamite to find out!” as they close This would also lead nicely into Christian’s heel turn on Jungle Boy upon his return. “I was out there getting sent to the hospital, and where were you?!’ type thing.

Thinking of who you put Miro against at the PPV and it’s interesting. After Christian, you’ve got Jungle Boy and OC, but I don’t think you’d want to feed either to Miro right now for fear of them getting a “choker” vibe (neither one can really JUUUUST LOSE a big match again). I presume Mox will have Tanahashi (though Mox/Miro would rule). The other guys on this plane of the card are mostly heels (or Darby, who we all presume will be busy). Eddie Kingston maybe?

Pac / Andrade and Omega / Christian, while not top level main events, are just my jam. The All Out card is off to a good start.

Both Rampage and next week look great. Fun crowd today but not a very memorable show

Looking forward to Rotunda joining OC, Trent and Chucky T as ‘The Friend’ Clay Hyatt

The loud, collective groan from the crowd when the doll winked was something else.

Yeah see I’d be cool with that. To me at least, Gargano/Andrade is both the apex of NXT and the start of its downfall.

I don’t even mind turning NXT into the Power Plant with 26 fungible CAW Mark Jindrak templates. I mean, I’ll probably watch that show. But if that report is true, yeah, Triple H is at a dead end in his career (until the old man changes his mind again, anyway). Not sure where he goes from here other than sucking it up, sir-yes-sir and cranking up “Move Along” for the Diva Search.

I hate to see anyone lose their job and there is a lot of talent on that list. It sucks. For the NXT show itself, I would welcome a return to developmental talent and less Indy darling types.

Bobby is like the senior sys admin for the backend database at a major corporation that has been there 30 years and quietly makes a ridiculous amount of money while managing nobody, because the entire organization knows that through all the years of changes in leadership or business strategy, the company would go totally down the shitter without him. He's the guy in the back room with the short sleeve button down with intimate knowledge the rows and columns to every database that actually drives the company. And for that reason, he's probably your favorite wrestler's (the company executives in this analogy) favorite wrestler. If wrestling had a tech-like notion of "fellows", Bobby would be a fellow.

Well, Black was a spectacle. Damn. I’m good never seeing Cody again, though they obviously Dusty Finish’d it

MJF has go away heat? At any rate, sport team rape jokes are established in wrestling canon as beyond the line. It’s like AEW hired Big Show or something.
