At the end of last year I thought 2023 AEW felt a lot like 1998 WCW. While you can argue that 1997 was where you can see the cracks, the end of 1998 was where you can see the potholes and wonder how this was going to fuck my car up (sorry having Philly WM flashbacks) . Last night was there WCW 1999 moment. I guess we should be mildly encouraged they did it in April while WCW did on the 1st two weeks of the year. Plus the wrestling when they actually do it is still really good unlike WCW 1999 where the emphasis on that was near the end. If they would have just done the footage then maybe the damage would have been fine. But they show the footage THEN do the Will Ospreay shoot comments on Triple H and then almost immediately they have the heel beatdown with the CM Punk chants This needs to get out of Tony's and the Bucks system but unfortunately nothing seems to do that

Yeah I am confused by Thea Hail reaction to what was in the blackmail material. Is she mad at herself for realizing that her angry and wild child phase and whining about chase was stupid? Chase betting on Thea but throwing in the towel because her health was more important than well the university is kind of awkwardly noble.

Oh I know how it worked. I just don't think I could have survived watching it until it finished which I believe at 4 in the morning. Even I was surprised it last that long. If you went to WM Night 1 and then the Clusterfuck until the end you deserve a medal

I really enjoyed the Indie Hall of Fame show watching live. All of the speeches were very good especially Steve Corino and Mercedes Martinez. I personally enjoyed seeing CZW fan legend Whack Packer Hogan inducted. If you are going to induct a fan and do it in Philly, he should be there The only thing that I thought was a little strange was Missy Hyatt induction of Eddie Gilbert. While he was honored and respected for his wrestling mind and heart, it felt less of an appreciation speech and more of a public service announcement to other wrestlers Only regret on Philly weekend was that I didn't go to the Clusterfuck show show on Saturday night. I had tickets but I completely underestimated how AWFUL it is to get out of the Philly Sports Complex area after an event. No wonder a decent percentage of Eagles and Phillies fans are such assholes. I would be too if I knew no matter how hard you try your not leaving that area until about 2 hours after the show. by the time I got to an actual interstate, I had already missed the Punjabi Prison match and probably the first 30 minutes of Clusterfuck. Although apparently the match lasted about 2 and 1/2 hours so if I wanted to fucking torture myself I could have seen most of it.

Man is Jimmy Uso vs Jey Uso the Sting vs HHH of this WM where the perception live is incredibly different than watching at home. I have heard the DUD category and while it was basically a TV match with excessive HBK acting, I thought it was solid

All he had to do was go up an elevator. Either that line at Wrestlecon was that strong for him or he is 10th level carny

The Pro Wrestling Revolver/HOG wrestling joint show was pretty good but also very strange in that it was held in a church. Well the center part of it. But of course it doesn't stop wrestling as we got about 2 or 3 Go Fuck Yourselves versions in about 10 minutes, Killer Kelly being as devishly sexy as possible, and Gia Miller with her ass all over the place. Jesus might have to do a triple shot on Sunday after that.

I am not sure what will be my best match of WM weekend but I damn well know what is on my top of worst list. that is the Fight Without Honor match. a really lame attempt to make a traditional violent match come off like a goofy WWE comedy match While I love that Billie learned all the tricks of the leader and used it to get the title, it made Queen Aminata look like the dumbest fuck in the world. At the worse time

We got Gimme Back My Bullets for a night. It was beautiful

Absolutely loved the show especially the 2nd half. The atmosphere was great for almost everything that night. Even if you are just a regular at H2o shows, it should have just satisfied you. Only negative (well beside Google Map driving my ass through every residential street in Gloucester trying to get there ) was that Tank was definitely not a fan of DEAN beer choices.

I am sure that having Shayna and Charlie Dempsey but the mixing of talent of WWE, TNA, GCW, and maybe AEW talent at this show was insane. CM Punk at a GCW show feels wild although I believe he is huge Barnett fan. You had a GCW and TNA wrestler concerned by a TNA champion against a WWE star cornered by her tag partner in a GCW ring. Wild times The biggest surprise of Bloodsport was the former Alexander Wolfe from WWE against Thatcher. That guy is a beast and really good in the ring Also it feels like Mike Bailey gimmick is to have about 25 matches this weekend and lose all of them. I know he is lost 6 times already. Maybe he won on a side show yesterday

Oh man next week Chris Colt. Business is definitely going to pick up on that one

The thing with Harley Race created two of the newest and maybe best What-Ifs in wrestling history: 1. What if Harley Race actually took Vince option to screw over Ric Flair at Starcade? 2. What if Harley Race actually did break Vince's neck after he foolishly fucked around and found out in said meeting?

This rain better be a weekday issue and NOT a weekend issue

So who had Drew Gulak accused of sexual harassment on their 2024 bingo card? According to Ronda Rousey, Drew grabbed the strings on her sweatpants.

I like that they decided to do a remake of the old Miller Lite 70's commercials. But Luke Wilson playing the Bob Uecker role is a hard no for me

While I agree in terms of the talent (although I still stand on guys like Anthony Henry), the timing is extremely suspicious. Especially from a guy that openly admits that he doesn't "release" people he just waits until their contract expire. I have a hard time believing the contracts expired that night a couple hours after interview with person people are tired of hearing about.

Add Anthony Henry to the list. Never mind that he is a hell of a talent, he I believe is also injured

For some reason Dasha Kuret was released today. Apparently this won't be the only one in AEW

Only about an hour into the Bray Wyatt documentary on Peacock and this might be the best one they ever did. The detail of his life as a kid to his time in FCW and NXT to the beginning of the WWE is so good. And everyone is featured in this from Luke Harper, Eric Rowman, Braun Strowman, and others. Even John Cena who is mostly an emotionless robot was really good into. I wish they would have spend more time talking about how he became as over as he was given how how he was given absolutely no favors in booking especially at Wrestlemania. The family stuff was so great and how getting married to JoJo almost saved his motivation and desire for the business. And then the deep detail in coming up with the Fiend and the Firefly Funhouse Match against Cena. The last 30 minutes of this will just break your heart for everyone involved. The stuff with Bo Dallas was great and really makes you feel incredibly sympathetic for. And it really looks like something might happen with him. Maybe they are bringing back Uncle Howdy or even a next generation Bray.

I have the Roman Reigns A&E Legends on my DVR and will probably watch it but based on the videos that have been released online it seems it is heavily kayfabed.

So NC State and Texas are playing (and agreed to it) in the women's March Madness on a court where the 3 point line is different for each side. No way any part of this happens in men's version

Remember when the only good receiver(I said receiver not tight end) the Chiefs had last year was Rasheed Rice. Well not sure if he will be repeating that performance this year https://twitter.com/MySportsUpdate/status/1774409258269921515

UCONN is now on a 30-0 run in the 2nd half. Talk about escalating quickly

The UFL starts and the first game being champion vs champion with Birmingham vs Arlington Hopefully we get a Cody run in today
