  1. Obviously I'll watch Bryan-Christian at some point, but for the first time ever I was actually so turned off by an AEW show (the opening segment) that I decided to do something else with my time. Three former WWE guys doing a WWE segment complete with unfunny humor and references to The Rock. Hard pass.
  2. Honestly, "The Legend" Adam Copeland has a nice ring to it and sometimes referencing him as "Ledge" is not the worst compromise. Hopefully his creative juices are flowing a little bit better than that though.
  3. To be fair, this episode was the Dynamite go-home show for the PPV, and there have been 2 other PPV's within the past month. It's obviously been a bit ham-fisted and hopefully they find some balance, but I much prefer this to earlier in the year when it felt like nothing ever happened for weeks on end until it was time to hype the PPV.
  4. Tony Khan hyped WrestleDream as the end of an era and the beginning of a new era. He’s most likely referring to the MAX deal, but I think he was hinting at many things, including storyline elements. The era of The Undisputed Kingdom. Cole was under the devil mask and has been working Max the entire time. I don’t think the injury is a work, but that was the catalyst for Adam framing MJF since now his plans to win the title are delayed. So now the idea is to break Max down psychologically, one piece at a time. The first piece is escalating the feud with Jay White and taking the tag belts away in one fell swoop. After Sunday, Max will be at his lowest point since becoming champion. Perfect time for someone to come in a swoop the Triple B away. I think the plan was for Cole to beat MJF but with the injury it may have delayed things, but I have another idea: Wardlow. A heel War Dog with Addddam! in a wheelchair and Orielly, Roddy, and the Kingdom as his henchmen seems pretty well rounded. Echoes of the Bloodline. And then when Wardlow can’t win the big one and it’s time for Cole to work again, the heels can turn on the big loser and maybe his old scumbag boss can save face. (I’m now realizing Sunday is probably too soon to reveal the but I enjoy these thoughts so…submit reply.)
  5. Right, pressure wasn't the correct term, but more often than not your average Dynamite crowd is either hit or miss and it does make a huge difference. It's not that there is or should be some expectation of the audience, but any live performance lives or dies by the crowd that's in person for the show. So it's a variable for sure. And we've heard time after time from workers that the stadium noise functions differently and is another challenge. Safe bet to say the crowd will be absolutely lit, however.
  6. I maintain that the real pressure is not on the talent, the audience, or the booking. This show will live and die on the audio engineering and camera direction. Perhaps also to a lesser extent, sigh, the commentary. I can live with bad booking and matches that don't quite hit, but for an expensive and successful weekly TV show to sound like dogshit every week and constantly miss important spots and moments is absolutely inexcusable 5 years in.
  7. The Jon Moxley vape meme really hits. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/SiC9LSzbyBQ (won't embed for some reason)
  8. Update on Santana and Ortiz from Fightful
  9. Running list of BCC's rumored and possible mystery partners for the Stadium Stampede: The Dark Order, Daniel Garcia, Santana, Ortiz, Lance Archer, Zack Sabre Jr, Minoru Suzuki, Tomohiro Ishii, Shingo Takagi, Shota Umino, Michael Oku, Trent Seven, Shibata, El Phantasmo, David Finlay, The Butcher, The Blade, Kip Sabian, Homicide, Chris Hero, Nigel McGuinness, Bryan Danielson, and Bill Goldberg. I'm probably leaving some big names off, but that's a pretty impressive list of suspects.
  10. Right, sadly not only the Southern states. Here in Wisconsin, you can walk around with a legally obtained murder weapon out in the open without question, but if you want to conceal that you'd need a permit. And you can legally have a loaded firearm in your vehicle at all times, but of course if a cop sees this they can act accordingly.
  11. Worth noting this happened 2 days before the Collision match against Better Than You Bay Bay. Will certainly be an interesting rewatch.
  12. See, now this would make way more sense tbh. Dalton Castle and the Boys?
  13. Care to share if this is conjecture or Deep IWC knowledge?
