Big Egg Wrestling Universe was like 9 hours long

What the fuck, I literally just discovered that Bert Prentice was running a promotion in my hometown when I was a kid and I had absolutely no idea. Most of it looks bad but I would have been way into this when I was 9 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrceIZkpzcEtV6EOmrGYSiWwiq_2uWXLX

When you subscribe you get access to the Google drive that actually has all the stuff on it.

I've got two big beefs (beeves?) with the match, one structural and one conceptual: -Adding wrestlers without having eliminations to clear the deadweight means that most of the participants are going to spend most of the back half of the match laying around outside while whoever is 'on' does their thing and the match immediately starts to feel flabby to me. -Having the 'random' entrant times and no fixed number of entrants makes the structure of the match subservient to the booking and that just feels wrong to me. Much as I love TK I think he could use a little more structure to hang his booking ideas on.

The Casino Gauntlet doesn't have a 'last entrant' it theoretically could go on until they run out of wrestlers in the back. Having the 1st or 2nd pick is supposed to be an advantage because you have a chance to end the match before there are a million wrestlers in there and it's pure chaos. I will stop before I get on my "The Casino Gauntlet is an inherently bad match" rant.

All the faces standing tall on Dynamite doesn't give me a great feeling for their chances on Saturday.

Let me know when you get to the part where Supreme almost dies

This is the one I'm looking forward to the most. KrisPLettuce has a bunch of Portland TV but I don't have the patience for that.

My favorite part of Dynamite was when Bandido caught Takeshita's dive and Takeshita gave him a lil 'thanks buddy' shoulder pat that they caught on camera.

Goodhelmet is one of the great underappreciated internet wrestling crazies (complimentary). This 4 Horsemen comp only covers 85-88 and it is 41 discs. Just incredible.

Well, they came up with a foolproof way to get me to subscribe to Wrestling Playlists patreon: posting the gigantic Goodhelmet comps that I coveted but couldn't afford back in the day. So far they have up the 90s yearbooks, the DVDVR best of the 80s sets and the 4 Horsemen set with Bob Backlund coming this weekend.

Last week I got a lightly-skunked case of Sierra Nevada Tropical ale for under $10 and it was totally acceptable, even in its diminished state. This week I got Founder's Rubaeus, which is brewed with raspberries and is one of my favorite fruit beers. I've had the nitro version on tap and it is incredibly creamy and delicious.

A number of outlets saying that Michael Madsen was found dead in his home this morning.

So it's weird that they're building up to a Page/Mox Texas death match without mentioning that they had a Texas death match two years ago, right? Like the fact they are ignoring their whole-ass blood feud in the build up to this blood feud?

A friend's fiance had a contract job working on Perfect Dark (after getting laid off from Raven in a previous round of cuts) and was just telling us a couple of weeks ago that he was pretty sure he'd get a permanent gig out of it. Man, fuck Microsoft.

I'm also about halfway through. I like it, but Mox and MJF giving their interviews at least semi in character is distracting. I do enjoy the interlude chapters with, like, 5 dog collar matches to check out. Has a very DVDVR Singles Going Steady feeling.

Firing the coach who got you to the ECF just to completely shit the bed on the search and end up hiring human gift card Mike Brown is some real classic Knicksing.

When my great-grandma died we discovered she had given thousands to Swaggart and Oral Roberts. Hell ain't real but if it was it wouldn't be hot enough for him.

I'm not even a clothes guy but Superman wearing an ill-fitted polo shirt tucked into pleated slacks without a belt is giving me hives. It's really nice of our generation's most talented comedic actress to take time out of her schedule to get a picture with Rachel Brosnahan.

Wow, the Bucks are waiving Lillard and stretching his contract so they can sign Myles Turner. 4yr/$107M for Turner.

I've chatted with Kieron Gillen but only about videogames. He's still "the Rock Paper Shotgun guy" instead of the "the comics guy" in my brain.

Thanks, boss. He had a very good last day of napping, snuggling with us, and eating lunchmeat.

We're saying goodbye to James tomorrow so I'm up bawling and feeding him fistfuls of ham.
