I kinda want Jarrett to win the All Atlantic title and spend a month or so playing traveling NWA champ on rampage against some of these fiery young baby faces like Yuta, AA, Dante Martin and Jungle Boy. Also think we could have solid JJ matches against Hangman and Omega

That segment had me thinking of MJF's 16 minute boreathon a few weeks back. Also why bring in Parker Boudreaux when you have Preston Vance on the roster? One of my pet peeves with AEW is the repetitive signings, plus do we even need another Jobber Stable with the Trustbusters?

I want to see Hook take on Big Bill! FTR putting the Gunns over on the way out of the territory? Rare Bucks blade job in the Holiday Superkick Party? I hope AA continues to have Jericho's number!

not opposed to that if this episode is used to build to New Years Smash

Well WWE is still the name that most people associate with wrestling so I would think that would matter everytime I seem a new streaming service I think "there's only 24hrs in a day how much of anything can anyone watch" -

MIDDLE AGED MEN AFTER HEARING THAT PROMO As for Punk I would imagine a lot of the appeal for people is he feels like one of us, not a super athlete or a body builder or second generation or some one white a college/Olympic/pro sports pedigree. He was first and foremost a fan who grew up to be champion. And regarding the Gripbomb as that old song says "NOBODYS RIGHT IF EVERYBODY'S WRONG"

BLOOD AND FIRE: THE UNBELIEVABLE REAL-LIFE STORY OF WRESTLING'S ORGINAL SHEIK By Brian R. Solomon Froward by Rob Van Damn An immensely detailed and well researched book looking into the life and times of one wrestling most mysterious figures. Goes back to his families history, his military service, and breaking into the business in the late 40's and 50's. Tremendous detail of his work in the 60's and 70's (almost too complete in this regard, I did feel it was a tad unnecessary to mention seemingly ever booking he took in these decades) also of personally interest was his running of Big Time Wrestling as I love hearing about promotions that time has seemingly forgotten ( also interesting coverage of him working for Mike Lebell in Hollywood and Jack Tunney in Canada). Of note Ed Farhat, The Mavia's and Tony Khan only non-white major wrestling promoters in the US? He had a love hate relationship of with the NWA with the Thezse's and Mushnick's of the old guard hating "gimmick" wrestling. He got BTW so successful that he purchased a Mobile TV truck to film his TV from the Arena's as opposed to the studio wrestling popular at the time, this truck was also leased out to shoot concerts and sporting events. KISS recently released a bunch of pro-shot 70's concert footage of the ALIVE! concerts, so that was probably using his truck! It also covers his decline and fall from grace as his respective booking and keeping himself on top for far too long, He bought the territory from Jim Barrnet. Then later Jim Barrnet tried to take back the territory by freezing him out on talent. This caused him to run outlaw and work for opposition promoters as he spent the 80 in the wilderness. Then he had a bit of a revival in the 90's with FMW taking off and breaking Sabu and RVD into the business.(Sabu had a WWF tryout in the mid 90's working with Scott "Scotty too Hotty" Taylor and Owen Hart, talk about holy grail footage! tuned down the offer. Would have likely gotten the Sultan gimmick that went to Rikishi but didn't want to be managed by The Iron Sheik) Did an appearance for WCW and ECW then and got inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame posthumously. 385 pgs including end notes
