Why is Chessman dressed like The Baroness?

Deonna/Faby could have been SO good, but way too much crooked referee bullshit. Maybe when both titles aren't on the line, we can get a real match.

I don't remember Jamie Hayter being there 2 years ago! Definitely a flat "reveal" but still an over all well done hour of wrestling.

Jericho is so annoying on commentary. I really hope this booth is just for the first episode.

I mean....that could work.... But what if instead... he showed up unannounced, and jobbed to Bobby Lashley in 5 minutes! That's Some Good Shit, Pal! In all seriousness, Keith Lee is one of my 2 or 3 favorite modern talents, and I am very glad to hear that he is going to be okay.

For me the extreme or hardcore style peaked with ECW, and I wish it had died there. When it was just tables, chairs, trash cans, etc and the barbed wire match was the epitome of dangerous. I didn't even mind FMW with their somewhat more extreme version of that same style. At first all of this glass, light tubes, staple guns stuff was a neat oddity, but now it just keeps getting more and more and with shit like this knife slashing I'm afraid of how much further they will have to go to satisfy things eventually. My other issue with it, is that a lot of these guys don't need to do it. When I was working as a ring announcer and a commentator, I worked a ton of shows with Matt Tremont and G-Raver. When they did matches that didn't involve that shit, I thought they were just as good or better than when they were maiming themselves for the same pay. But I guess it doesn't get you noticed. I never had a problem with stuff like Abdullah and his fork, and The Sheik's pencil, because if we are being honest, 95% of the time you could see from the way they were holding it, that it was making minimal contact with the opponent anyway. So, while I don't have the Cornette levels of disdain for the participants and the fans of deathmatches and angles like the knife thing, it wouldn't hurt my feelings at all if it dried up and went away tomorrow.

I don't know why, but I actually have a feeling that Charlotte will jump whenever her contract is up.

Damn. That's awful. An all time great, gone way too young. Rest in Peace.

I just got a copy of his book in the mail yesterday. Very sorry to hear this. RIP Mr. Hamilton

I'm picturing Wyatt in a singlet, and that mask with headgear over top of it and that would be amazing.

Sinclair owned stations seem to be using the program as filler these days. My local Fox station will run hours of old episodes back to back on Saturday and Sunday afternoons when they have open slots to fill.

Thank You!

So I am watching some Keijo Mutoh matches from his run in Puerto Rico as part of the Ninja Express with Kendo Nagasaki and I just had a question. Who is their manager guy in the red and white mask?

Did it become a thing when Ken Shamrock came in?

Was just curious if anyone happened to be attending this weekend, and might be willing to attempt to help me out with something? https://www.tmartpromotions.com/ for anyone wondering what it is.

So going by this break down, and WWE's track record, we should expect either Orton, Rollins, or The Fiend to be the person to unseat Roman.

I didn't know anything about her history, but do agree that she does look older. I just looked at her wikipedia page earlier, and it had her listed as 22. 32 would make a lot more sense.

I thought the Xia Li/Raquel Gonzalez match was pretty decent until the injury happened. I had no idea that Xia Li was only 22 years old. If she continues to progress and get better, she could be great.

It never fails to amaze me that in a company that employs something like 200 wrestlers, the moment they have the slightest blow to their ego or reputation, the first thing they do is go "Find me someone who was popular 25 years ago." I can only imagine what an amazing boost for morale that is.

Other than what looked like some minor language barrier miscommunication between Yuka and Penelope during their match, I felt like this was a pretty solid all around edition of Dynamite. Getting back on the road is going to end up being a huge thing for AEW as people are obviously super excited to see the product. They were popping like crazy for Christian/Hardy, the aformentioned women's match, and everything else. I do think that if they continue with the Black/Cody feud, the crowd is going to double turn them whether they want too or not!
