    I want Papa Shad to do the territory thing of bringing in an even BIGGER BIG BAD to deal with the current BIG BAD, throwing in a "distant family relative" type bit would be what ever

    Oh shit who’s gonna play Rough House Khan on a weekend pass from the sanitarium?

    Sonjay Dutt was able to speak Punjabi with Shad Khan. So I suspect that some people might know what Jinder is Punjabi and Shad is from Pakistan’s Punjab region. The rest don’t know that Jinder isn’t Pakistani

    I think the Jinder thought is less on ethnicity and more on him and TK having a twitter moment a few months ago. I could very well be wrong and missing the actual discourse. 
    saying that, I don’t want him in AEW. Unless he can do bangers, I’m assuming he’s not needed. I saw on twitter wools talking about him being a good guy, so I hope he can make a lot of money outside of the WWE.
     

    For sure, guys.  I just don't want to steer into WWE style "he's brown enough and they're all the same" territory, like putting Filipino DJZ into the LWO.

    Bischoff being a cold-hearted bastard is no surprise, the way he talks about some of the talent on 83 Weeks. The irony is that the guy derides Ed Leslie for being a barnacle clinging to the S.S. Hulk Hogan, but doing that himself is essentially what accounts for a massive chunk of Bischoff's career post-WCW, so...

     

    It's always projection with these people

  4. Various thoughts since I have them:

    No audio issues on Triller!

    I dug Fletcher's Liger tribute tights.  His hair, not so much.

    I fully agree we needed either a statement win or a statement statement from Swerve and we got neither.

    Shirakawa has charisma to burn.  Sign her right now.

    Anna spent the second half of the match wrestling her top more than her opponent.

    Deeb's presentation was awesome.  Good idea bringing her out to just be normal and above the bullshit in contrast to the goofiness and faux HLA happening in the ring.

    That multiman clusterfuck was fun but you NEED the announcer to explain the rules first.  I was feeling for the fans in the arena who saw dudes thrown over the top rope and were probably wondering why they weren't eliminated.  Is there a limit to the number of guys in the match or do we have infinite dudes back there hoping nobody gets pinned?  Also, funny how entrances worked around the commercial breaks.  No entrance for 3 minutes, then two in a span of a minute!  Shit, if it was sudden death, sell it by having the match end during a break.  Okay, maybe not.

    Ten years from now, you'll tell your grandkids where you were when Chuck was finally allowed to say "shit" on TV.  Just kidding, but thinking him saying that overshadowed the angle is bubblicious, no offense to anybody.

    Mercedes continues to be marblemouthed and speaks like a Tiktoker, but she was miles better tonight than before and it's clear they're going heel with her.

    I feel bad for Hobbs.

    I was about to joke Saturday night that Takeshita's pants in the streetfight made him look like a MC Hammer backup dancer, and then last night dude shows up in full genie pants.  Damn.

    I think (hope?) they're smarter than to go with any kind of a) onscreen character for Khan and b) heel authority figure gimmick for the Bucks. I think their EVP gimmick is a play on their real life status as guys with official titles but who lost a lot of stroke a long time ago.  Like they THINK they're in charge but it's all bullshit.  Anyway, I'm interested to see where it goes and won't say the sky is falling until it actually does.

    I know AEW isn't a serious company because there isn't already a PO Box where I can send TK a get well card.

    LOOOOOL

    We really needed a campaign to send Jack Perry a vote of confidence between that tape airing and last night.

    HTM's heel turn was weird as fuck.

    Willo is such a good promo, I love Mercedes but se has to get rid of that WWE style promo Cadence. Especially since she probably won't be wrestling frequently on this current run she's got to get better with the promos. Willo could be a made woman if this comes off well.

    Also needs to drop that affect-UH that you hear a lot-UH nowadays where any word that ends in s hard-UH consonant-UH has a UH at the end-UH.

    Anyway, I think TK has the self awareness to know he can’t act and is an awkward guy in general and can’t be a regular character on screen.  I mean there’s a reason he had no lines last night.

    Gonna be honest, if I didn't enjoy the art of people who didn't like my skin color, I'd enjoy like zero art. Especially of the pro wrestling variety. 

    If you don't get over some of that stuff and just enjoy the work, you'll drive yourself crazy and never enjoy anything. 

    Yeah, for judging artists, athletes, whatever, for a lot of them it's a spectrum of "maybe questionable" ------------------> "irredeemable human being."  You just need to pick where your own line is on a case by case basis.

    On the Hogan tip, if you watch any 80s wrestling PPV, I guarantee most of the people on that show have some racism knocking around in their heads.  They just haven't yet been dumb enough to express it publicly.

    Anyway, you find your own personal line and you don't tell anyone what that line is 🤣

    As Peck said in the main thread and my dumb ass posted in the wrong thread, the FTC just banned non-competes with that nullifying all prior ones. The US Chamber of Commerce is gonna sue though for a reason someone will have to explain to me (probably just your typical deregulation bullshit) so there'll be a fight. 

    Anyway that has better placement on this thread than the main one. 

    I’d guess the Chamber of Commerce represents businesses and their interests in this late stage capitalism hellhole.  I’m frankly surprised any agency tried to pass a ruling that might harm The Job Creators (hallowed be thy names).  Go after wrestling’s BS independent contractor shit next please and thank you.

    Sure. When a babyface shows up with a garlic necklace and a stake to drive through his heart.

     

    But no, I understand your point. It should just really mean something when Malakai drops a fall.

    What I meant was that, apparently, Malakai himself is edging into Mil Mascaras “NO YOB!” territory.
