The match was in ICW, the Poffo promotion, so Randy would probably get more cheers.

Another thing I loved was the Daily Planet bullpen of Perry, Lois, Jimmy, Cat Grant, Steve Lombard, and Ron Troupe. There were so many Easter Eggs I couldn't catch all of them. Especially the ones that teased that the sequel will feature Bizzaro and the Bizzaro World. All the clues are there, and that'd be the most James Gunn New DC thing ever. Yellow Lantern is already being story boarded.

That's actually perfect. Paul Jones was once a main event wrestler before he was a manager, so Jimmy's end goal was always to get Jones in the ring, beat him up, and someday shave his head. Which I got to see live from the third row in Greensboro at Starrcade 86, when Boogie finally beat him and shaved him bald to end the nearly three year feud.

The booking of the HS has been one of things that makes the most sense in AEW. Look at them! Jesus Christ. They should be beating the shit out of everybody. They're like if the Road Warriors were also amateur champions. Who cares if they're "old" or are "WWE" guys? I loved the tag match at the PPV purely because the HS were having no part of all the flippy shit and just wrecking house.

Up until today, my favorite on screen Luthor was Jon Cryer on the DCW Shows. (Superman The Animated Series doesn't count, Natural.) But Hoult just took over as number one. If anyone hasn't seen Cryer's Lex, find a YouTube compilation. He was pretty fucking great. They also do a take on Tessmacher and Otis like this movie did. When they finally called that guy Otis, I popped . And Jimmy Olsen: Pussy Magnet is completely comic book accurate to anyone who collected old 60's Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen comics. I hope he becomes Elastic Lad or giant Turtle Olsen in the sequel.

I just got out of the theater. That was wonderful. It was the Superman movie I've wanted since I was a kid, a COMIC BOOK Superman movie. I'll always love Christopher Reeve, but I was 8 in 1978, and I was already a prolific comic book nerd and collector. So there was so much of that movie I hated at the time. I welled up with joy numerous times this afternoon. The mixture of 60's era wild and weird stuff with the post Crisis stuff was like pure nirvana.

If I was to guess, it's probably concussion related.

Also, having Jim Ross on the call was elder abuse. Holy shit.

Unnecessary shit like the Bucks and the bed of nails. And Ospreay looking like a dork getting Pillmanized as the manager of his partner from earlier was hiding under the time keepers table to eventually handcuff Shafir, because I guess Swerve had a master plan that involved Ospreay getting murdered ? It FELT like 15 minutes of overbooked bullshit, no matter how long it actually was.

That main event was awesome for the first half of it, and Page winning was great . There was about 15 minutes of overbooked bullshit in the middle that stunk and/ or didn't make sense.

See, I don't think Jey Uso is the new "Boogie Woogie Man" Jimmy Valiant. You guys are close, but it's not Jey. It's "Big Jim" Jimmy Uso. Apparently, Jimmy's nickname is "No Bumps" Jimmy Uso, and as the worlds Number One member of the Boogie Woogie Brigade, I think that's the clincher. And since he's been feuding with Solo "Paul Jones" Sikoa and his goons for a long time .

Ahem, you forgot the "Daddy!" at the end. I've been pitching Goodhelmet Will my idea for a multi disc set of the entire Jimmy Valiant vs Paul Jones feud, including when Jimmy and the Street People started beefing with the Midnight Express and a rejuvenated Tye Dye Superstar Billy Graham took over fighting Jones and his Army, for like, 15 years. You'd think a pal would make something just for the Street People and The Boogie Woogie Brigade, but no dice.

Goodhelmet is a close friend of mine. We just talked last month for two hours about what wrestlers he should adapt into super heroes for the new WWE video game.

Well, the Boogie Woogie Man actually won matches.

Jimmy had three big eras. WWWF, early 80's Memphis, and mid 80's Crockett.

It's the Manhatten Transfer, "Boy From New York City" that Jimmy Valiant came out to.

Because he was awesome. The crowds were super into the years long feud with Paul Jones. It's what grabbed me the day I discovered Worldwide on channel 17. And it wasn't that family friendly. He hung out with street people.

Sunshine would have been your drug gal in this fantasy, chief. And skipping a Landell match is proof you've already met. Shit, her trucker Aunt, Stella Mae French, was the speed connection for all the Texas territories.

The deal was this. Garvin has been presented as a rival of Flair for years on TV while also turning tricks as Miss Atlanta Lively. So the idea that Garvin could beat Flair wasn't some out of nowhere ridiculous shit. It was all how it was booked. No one else who believably could beat Flair didn't want to do the angle that was all about Fair winning the belt back at Starrcade. And then they did an angle where Ronnie didn't defend the belt until Starrcade. We saw that show on Closed Circuit at the Philly Civic Center and not only was Chicago cheering for Flair, but Philly was, as usual, Flair country.

It is.

Did anyone else notice Cena fumbling his opening line just as Drew possessed him? It was a real Deadman situation going on there, I tell ya what.

The real Layfield has grown up to be pretty much that. I remember some years back on the legends show he did on the network where he interviewed Micheal Hayes and told him that the confederate flag is a hate symbol. He also tweeted a Happy Juneteenth post yesterday.

The Cena/ Punk stuff was fucking great. I loved it, including the hypocrisy shit. I love that Punk is gonna be a "hypocrite" because Harley Race would definitely have worked in Saudi Arabia. One of the best in ring promo segments in awhile, and it was halfway through a LONG show. SD can't get back to 2 hours fast enough.

Not her one shot if she owns this gimmick.
