POV you just call pro wrasslin that silly fake shit

Not Punk he seems to have zero people skills let alone looking after several dozen teenagers on minimum wage. HHH doing his Cerebral Assassin bit Bruce Prichard would suck up to regional management Lance Storm the man way to straight laced to have ever been in wrestling

RICKY YOU BIG DUMB BITCH DONT YOU REALIZE THIS IS BRYANS SHOW NOW!!!! Steamboat looks really good for his age, way better than Flair Third Paul brother and Donaksaurus get the win, I take back what I said before everyone is acting logically in this angle Dark Order, these sharp dressed me mean business! What a main event! And Jarrett - Rodman angle accomplished what it meant to Chicago Bulls on X: "Rodman chokeslammed him in crocs @dennisrodman x @AEW https://t.co/e1KqJ1SapB" / X (twitter.com)

are you suggesting Sting's bat is corked?

I gave Punk a lot more rope than most, but yhea a certain pattern of behavior here. Re: ticket sales; I remember Bruce Prichard talking about early IYH shows that where value priced (20$ for 2hrs instead of big four which where 3 for $30) he said it didn't affect buys, so they when with 3hrs across the board. If people like the card they will buy it regardless of price. I would imagine its the same with ticket sales as long as you don't price yourself out of your market people will buy a ticket to a hot product regardless of price. Re: getting hot; I feel the special guest appearance way of booking both helps and hurts (This week its Suksuki! Will Osprey! Ishii! Jeff Cobb!) sure keeps us away from the endless rematches and 50/50 booking that was WWE for so long. But yhea those random appearances mean you might not see your favorite when buying a ticket weeks or months out. Also it comes at the expense of longterm stakes, sure the matches are cool but if I just want matches I can go to youtube for that, if I'm going to follow a weekly wrestling program I want to feel like I'm stepping into a world. Like when I watch Seinfeld, or Simpsons or Alway Sunny its "what is the gang upto this week". And that comes from booking on going storylines and matches with stakes not just acting like a random match generator

This is why I maintain that Darby and OC are your top babyfaces in the company right now. Pretty much everyone else was getting split reactions.

Only if they pass The Righteous backstage allowing Dutch to bellow Anyway another week where I enjoyed AEWorldwide better than Wednesday Nitro! Only things that stunk where sigh this QTV stuff that will. not. die. And Adam Cole's Manservant Roddy Beefcake getting a sitdown interview. I swear if this leads to Cole winning the title and defending it against Mr. neckbrace.... JOHNNY HUNGGIE THE LITTLEST HOSS!!! IS THE LITTLE HOSS THAT COULD!!! Fun battle royale, fun tag matches only thing Kip likes more than gym is hair spray apparently. His was UP! ARENA LEVEL! How bout HARD HITTING Bryan Keith! That's what you get for playing to the crowd! SKYE BLUE WINS!

on a lighter note

Liked all the wrestling, didn't care for the blabbing (Shoe throwing Toni Storm aside) Probably Penta's best match in AEW? Just wish it had been in Socal. Penta is so over here the building would have been electric on the false finishes. Still need to run a Penta singles main event here sometime. Interesting that MOX won with the cross arm breaker and Penta targeted OC's arm Always good to see EMI, but All Whatever had a two hour pre-show with only 2 matches. Couldn't they have run a women's trio's there (and maybe something for Kip who's been a day one solider)

Its really too bad Booker never jumped to WWF (he gets the AJ push and Stevie gets Mark Henry's spot in The Nation) or got pushed as a single earlier I always kinda think of Booker, Steiner and Jarrett getting death spriral World Champ Runs similar to Rick Martel and Curt Hening being AWA champs at the very end

@Matt D When Jericho had the Vietnam Pro Wrestling guys on his podcast, they mentioned all these small companies that helped them get a ring, places like Maylasian pro wrestling. And I was thinking we need OC being a traveling Internation Champion defending in weird rinky dink arenas in various asian countries

War Pigs | Ted Kirkpatrick | Tourniquet (bandcamp.com) Who wants to hear Chris Jericho sing Warpigs?

Geezer Butler's autobiography is really good if a little lighter than Ozzy and Tony's books. Very forth coming about various tensions in the band

cover the spread

But telling Miro to “redeem these nuts” is such an Eddie Kingston thing to say

I would guess its an updated variant?
