once again, I must state I am not TK

Good lord, Keith Lee out here hitting ranas like he's in CMLL.

It must be fun working with Claudio, whatever power spot you come up with he'll make it work.

That kind of makes me think The Acclaimed are winning, tbh.

That, or Swerve tries to cheat and Lee stops him because he's an honorable babyface (or he does cheat and it backfires), letting the Acclaimed win.

FWIW someone on Twitter asked Dave if the AEW locker room was in turmoil and he replied that things have been largely smoothed over and everyone's been pretty happy the last couple weeks. SRS mentioned something about one of his sources using the term "addition by subtraction" without specifying who was meant by this. So it looks like a major source of stress and aggravation was excised from the locker room, so I suppose whoever that could be is an exercise for the reader.

It is indeed two hours for Rampage.

All I'm saying, and I like the Bucks, is that if I saw them coming at me my reaction wouldn't be to be so in fear of my safety I though I needed to star swinging to protect myself. Honestly the only one of the group that could potentially have fighting skills is Kenny because as a Canadian he grew up playing hockey so is probably at least semi decent at throwing hands.

Like he looks like a dude the cops would talk to in a TV show to get info on where their suspect is hiding.

As someone who didn't follow NXT UK very much other than the very beginning, Bate appears to have aged 20+ years since then.

Dana Brooke gonna file a preemptive gimmick infringement on this new girl for doing her no hands cartwheel deal

I still wonder if something happened with Waller. Dude was clearly positioned as a top guy when 2.0 launched, got the main event rub from AJ, and since then he's gone stretches without appearing on the show.

Was this Oro dude in NXT UK?

Ivy needs to go on a tear like Taz in ECW, just going around tossing fools. WHO CAN STOP THE PATH OF NILE

This match reminded me it's mind boggling no one has used the torture rack as a finisher since, what, Abyss (kind of? he did the rack-drop deal). I feel some modern hoss could get that shit over racking dudes like Lex uses to.

I suppose that's fair, perhaps she just needs to learn how to reign her shit in and not try to go for the home run ball every time.

Lash is a legit athlete but she hasn't shown any in ring aptitude AT ALL, which is kind of alarming for how long she's been there. She has the promo skills and the charisma for miles (which is why it's worth it to keep trying) but her matches are barely above Sharmell/Survivor Jenna levels.

I wonder if Damon being the traitor when it looked like it was being set up for Roddy in that role means Roddy signed an extension.

Well unless Kenny bit his own arm, we know at least that much happened. Also pretty much every industry on the planet lets their top stars get away with (sometimes literal) murder.

lol HBK telling Melo it's bad to try to get around the system

Truly, this will end up being this era's Montreal as in something that will be endlessly discussed by people who have no knowledge of what actually happened.

For that matter, why did no one ever fix it? Always seemed pretty low rent that your world title got damaged and you just left it like that.

FWIW, Konnan was hoping to get Kenny for TripleMania, but he was never officially booked because he was out with his injuries for so long. They've been doing an angle where multiple people are jockeying for the match (including Juvi hilariously shooting his shot on social media). Once they finally reached out, shit had already gone down and Kenny was on the naughty list.

Sanga/Von gonna slap some meat too

That must have been Bill Watts' #1 pet peeve, when JYD left for the WWF the year before he would go on rants for like two TV shows in a row about how despicable it was for no showing the last couple shows he was advertised for before leaving.
