  1. Yeah, I'm of the same mind. I'll probably drop it since I know the story for the game at this point and play 0.2 and debate getting into 3 again or playing something else first.
  2. You had 2 title matches with Raw wrestlers on the card and another that had a Raw wrestler versus a SD wrestler. I don't think it matters that much. It's more about if the SNME crowd would be that familiar with a NXT match. They could probably use them in dark matches to get a gague.
  3. That still works with what Kevin is saying though. If she's been working with Harley then she probably feels like she's someone she can have a good match with versus someone who's style she feels like not match up.
  4. Has anyone else played Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance? I'm not liking the Spirt system to gain abilities. And the drop system is annoying and it was apparently reduced for the console version so I probably would have raged played it on PSP.
  5. blitzkrieg had the same thought as me, there's a chance KO shows up on Tuesday for revenge.
  6. Yeah, I have thoughts about booking and presentation of black wrestlers in both big companies and their subsidiaries (and FWIW I'm black) but it's a way deeper subject than a message board.
  7. I'm actually watching Collision right now so I'll post again but this has to be the most "Ric Flair has a world title match against Craig Pittman on Saturday Night" match in recent AEW history. Regarding Private Party and other title reigns in wrestling, nailing the story after the triumph seems like it's hard for companies. There's plenty examples across companies over the years and PP is just a more recent example. I like the team so it annoys me more than other instances, but it still sucks overall. Quadruple cup for The Infantry guy was hilarious. Not sure if I like 2.0 in street clothes when wrestling but oh well. Parking lot brawl was great. Hologram return soon apparently. Dante Martin looked on the verge of tears in the backstage segment. The wide shot on Mariah's entrance shows an empty commentary desk so I assume they just recorded it after (Nigel was there for sure they just look to be sitting low)? Kinda jarring seeing the difference in outfits with what the wrestlers have on and the crowd. Hopefully the ring area was heated well. Toni is killing me with he Hardy Boyz pants. Nevermind, it makes sense (calm down Ramo2653netico). Also explains why we everyone played it straight with Toni when she came back. Only would have been better had they updated match graphic on screen. Renee's face in the clip reminds me of when I'm working with my married buddies on a home project and their wives look at us silly for being too ambitious. "Oh you're going to turn the basement into a man cave and have a play room for the kids with a projector screen, sure honey, we're going to Target, Kohls, Sendiks and grabbing some lunch" I'm Cesaro in the clip. Brody and Buddy looked good. Ringside brawl was also great! Main event was good. Not a bad way to spend my late morning/early afternoon.
  8. I actually think the best part of the Death Riders thing is that we got Mox's NJPW theme instead of his original AEW theme or Wild Thing.
  9. When one of the Uso's was out with a shoulder surgery in the early 2010s and the other one was working singles matches on Main Event/Superstars was that Jimmy or Jey? I remember the matches were good for what they were (you don't get classics on those shows because they're not for that purpose). If it's Jimmy it makes sense that he looked good when he got the chance. And while I love Jey, the start of his single's run wasn't great since he didn't have his moveset and pacing padded out yet. He's pretty much there now though.
  10. I was working on some spreadsheets yesterday while at work and I just ran the WCW Slam Jam playlist and I wasn't aware of a few things: 1. Some of these songs were stretched out way more than I thought, I wasn't aware of the intros for Sting, Rude and Johnny B. Badd's songs. 2. Steamboat's song is insane and someone needs to just sing it to him next time he pops up backstage in AEW. 3. Whatever court case WWE settled with the guy about the rights to the songs must not have been in their favor because I'd love these songs in the WWE games.
  11. I've had the problem for a long time and it never worked for me and I'm just used to right clicking on the next page button now. Minor inconvenience overall.
  12. Nothing he has done post Bill Parcel leaving has indicated he actually wants to win. Hell the current scuttlebutt is that he wants to hire Deion Sanders to be the next coach and his son (who's probably a failson) wants to hire Brian Schottenheimer who is in his early 50s and is the son of well known head coach and he hasn't gotten a sniff of a head coaching job until now.
  13. Considering the amount of shots Tony has tossed towards WWE's way the last 5+ years, I'd say he has a desire to be #1, now he may have had to pivot pivot over the last few years and the scaled down arenas and sets are an indicator of that but I don't doubt the desire is still there but they just don't have a plan for it yet. And if you want to talk about bad franchise owners who only care about popularity and not success, Jerry Jones is right there.
  14. Outrunners are in the Collison Vortex (I want to say they've had one Wednesday match ever) so they couldn't come out. So the trope that Dynamite starts off hot and cools off isn't beating the allegations tonight. Loved the opening segment and the tag match. I love PP but it just wasn't working. Everything after the tag title win was just off and the switching of their music during their entrance was emblematic of that. Should be fun to see Shelton and Lashley with the tag titles and hopefully they can mix it up with some of the other teams. The Toni/Harley segment was great of course and going into full slang was great. I thought the Swerve/Fox match would be a little more even but also makes sense it wasn't. Max's tan is getting more and more insane by the week. He's going to look like vintage Hogan by Revolution. I was a little worried after the jobber was tucking his chin on the Angel Wings. Harley 2 for 2 on the night. Why would you air the House of not Black segment after Julia's match? And yeah, main event was not my favorite.
  15. High school was page count for me and college was word count except for one class. I of course used the Time New Roman "trick" when writing in high school and thought I was so damn clever. Granted I graduated high school in 2002 and got my BS in 2007 and masters in 2012. And I only enrolled into grad school because the economy took a dump right as I graduated so I did HVAC part time and took night classes.
  16. I have some friends that did roller derby a few years ago (pandemic kinda wiped out the teams here so now they just compete as one team versus other cities) and when one of them joined they mentioned she had to check a database to see if her name was already picked. So there's apparently a site out there for it.
  17. Finished Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep, can't play Coded since I never had a DS but I'm aware of the story beats. Loved the game play in BBS and as someone that initially only played the 3 mainline games before it really filled in some holes when I played 3 for the first time. Storywise, I just have to say that Eraqus was an idiot and a little communication from this supposed master and teacher would have solved a lot of problems. But then we wouldn't have a game. Giving Dream Drop Distance a shot next. I should probably play something else to switch it up too.
  18. What kinda of strains do they have up there in Canada!?
  19. Yeah, I want the Omega/Moxley death match shirt but it's not available anymore.
  20. I have the first Shida shirt from 2020 and it has a tag of the manufacturer (Next Level). The graphic on the front has a small AEW logo in the bottom corner.
  21. So the woman I get quarterly deep tissue massages from did this last year and I'd say she's not a person with high cardio (not a knock on her general health because doing massage work full time is hard) and she was fine. She did have a training schedule for a year before the trip. There are a few different routes you can take and there is an "easier" one that is heavily guided. She wants to go back in the next few years and do one of the more difficult routes. And yeah, she comes from money and actually owns the salon she works out of.
  22. That PiP break with Stephanie stomping around actually made me keep watching instead of fast forwarding this morning so that's something.
  23. Ok, I can think of 2 things Eddie has done that I liked: 1. His TNA run as the manager and occasional third for Santana and Ortiz when they feuded with Lucha Bros. 2. When Dynamite had a segment named "Eddie Kingston Addresses his Enemies"
  24. So there was an unofficial NXT rule that they wouldn't sign anyone they didn't feel comfy putting on the road which translated to legal drinking age in the US. But that must have changed since they signed Thea Hail before she turned 21 (just happened this past September) so I assume they relaxed it a bit. I assume they or Booker wanted her to get some seasoning before joining NXT.
  25. I always see Mariah's character as fake posh British woman. She's putting up a front that comes off pretty quick once she's pushed even a little bit. But she can wrestle which backs up her character a bit. Yeah, Claudio is boring as hell to me, he does cool stuff but it doesn't matter somehow. And yeah Kingston bores the hell out of me. His silly mugging expressions when he's trying to portray being hurt in a match, his mugging when he tries to one up someone, his remarks about how he's so tough and so real and everyone else isn't. Like get out of here.
