Based on her Instagram posts, it’s pretty clear that Alize knows how to manipulate public opinion, only from the perspective of the sucker being manipulated. Also, they would have been in the 3rd women’s match on that Collision, so any argument about 3 minute long and TK hates women’s matches would’ve been easily countered by that.

You’d think WWE wrestlers would be used to wrestling 3 minute matches…

They probably have to want to. Jade would have benefited as well, but she had family and didn’t want to do indies or an excursion. TBH, I’m not even sure how much Hook loves pro wrestling, or if it’s something he’s doing because his Dad did it and it’s a way to get his face out there.

Harley f’ng Cameron pinned Athena. What a reward for a very hard worker.

He used to no-sell a lot because he literally didn’t know how to do anything in the ring besides a bunch of his dad’s suplay and some sloppy judo throws. He has learned to sell some now, but as mentioned elsewhere he often does the “sell a limb for 10 seconds until it’s time to hit his next big move”. Then again, that’s pretty common these days.

Also both have victories (maybe even multiple) over him in singles matches.

Collision was solid, hate how they had some many commercials during the main event. Really enjoyed the opening sequence, and how they built to the crazy flying stuff at the end. Didn‘t see anything from Marina in the tag match to make me change my negative opinion of her wrestling ability and sloppiness.

The Costco guy from TikTok, some viral thing. Apparently trained as a pro wrestler at the same time as QT Marshall. I think it’s dumb as shit but I guess it gets them some eyes on their PPV preshow?

I had a long post typed out, then realized that I’ve exhausted chili discourse on multiple forums and social media platforms and deleted it.

As a play on a common sign: “Don Callis eats elotes the long way”

So bed head?

Cmon, the BCC-JAS Blood and Guts was easily the best! I agree it doesn’t need to be an annual thing, and that this one is thrown together. I think they also made a mistake running the Women’s tournament concurrent with a women’s Blood and Guts, since the women’s roster isn’t really deep enough for both. I’m far more interested in the tournament (which could also have served as a vehicle to truly build to a B&G. Allegedly, ticket sales for Greensboro are really slow. Now, there’s a chicken or egg situation where is it because there isn’t a live audience interest in a Women’s Blood and Guts, or is it because AEW hasn’t given the audience a reason to be interested.

I watched live (well, on a 5-10 minute delay after the opening segment and match)! I really enjoyed the action and the show in general. I called the Sisters of Sin beating Hayter and Aminata with help from Thekla a week or two ago. They’re a somewhat established team, and Thekla and Hayter still have beef. Booking 101 too, next match Jamie stops Thekla from interfering. Also it was a good match, Skye and Aminata being real life besties means they have no problem getting a little stiff with each other. Brodido and FTR will be a good match. Seems likely they’re going to have FTR win so that The Young Bucks can finish their face turn with a title win against their arch-rivals. Also, that Bandido segment was . Feel bad for Penelope Ford, and also impressive she finished out that match! Not the least bit interested or excited about Marina. I know she’s improved from recklessly dangerous and sloppy to just kinda bad, but still… Speaking of improved from recklessly dangerous and sloppy to just kinda bad, Hook and his boring song are back! Guess he was there to eat a submission and further a feud with someone who can carry him. The short notice Blood and Guts with an angle that is just starting to reheat, combined with the total lack of build to the alleged Women’s B&G, is weird. For a hot minute, I was wondering if they were gonna do a mixed B&G with Marina and Willow. I like the idea of having the 2 matches (if they follow through) being split between Dynamite and Collision. The Hangman as Schiavone bit was great. I honestly thought it might be the Dark Order in the inflatables, as more of a callback to 2021. I did notice that “Tony” looked a little puffier and had weird hair when he went back into the ring. DCF meeting was mostly highlighted by the artwork, Mark Davis drinking out of a Solo cup the whole time, and Lance Archer’s commitment to dressing like he’s still Lance Hoyt in mid-00s TNA. Takeshita face turn is going to be glorious, and then he can have a blood feud with Kyle Fletcher since he’s proven to be such a fantastic heel

My first thought was Fezzik from The Princess Bride, but I’m an old and also never got into Dragonball/DBZ.

And he also runs the AEW gaming stuff.
