The Adrian Street documentary was short but pretty interesting. Funny to hear Terry Taylor act like him losing the Mid South TV title was a shoot.

Watching on delay so I just finished the Women's title match. Fun brawl, was surprised they did a title change. Sounded like the crowd was too, with the "one! two!.....uh what?" reaction the finish got.

I love that Dave Mastiff looks like Otis and Braun Strowman had a weird baby.

AEW's in that place NXT is in with Takeovers where all their shows should be at least decent, with the possibility of being great if something catches fire.

Wasn't part of them getting the TNT deal based on having an established star like Jericho as champ at the start? Having a heel champ to build a new babyface star wouldn't be the worst way to kick off a new TV show.

They were struggling to sell tickets period, had to move the show from MSG to the theater next door (which honestly they should have aimed for in the first place). They were hoping to get AEW guys involved, but AEW isn't going to let their guys work for other promotions inside the US.

It's always been a little fishy to me, especially considering Lawler's been at times the most low-key and high-key scummy guy in wrestling (but hey, he throws a great punch so *handwave*). Even before everything happened with Brian, his response to those who got swindled was all "I promise to get to the bottom of this and everyone will get what they were owed" then there was zero followup. Then he went on local Memphis TV where he's still treated like a god to make sure he garners maximum sympathy and all the heat was on Moore. My personal theory is that they both thought they had a nice side hustle selling Lawler memorabilia, and Moore either got greedy or some shit happened in his personal life and he started promising more than he knew he could deliver.

AAA announced today that Impact will be helping them promote their New York show, and said Impact talent will be appearing on the show.

Excited to watch the Adrian Street documentary after the NXT UK show. I hope it means we'll get his theme music restored to the network.

They're best friends too. Story goes Rush asked Andrade about going to WWE (before he was getting a push) and he told him not to bother since it sucked there. I would imagine his tune is probably different now.

Charlotte, Andrade, and Rush living the Tranquilo life.

Reminds me of one of my earliest fan memories. I went to an NWA house show in 1987 (I was nine), and joined in with an older kid in front who was yelling "Dick Murdoch is playing with himself!" during the "heel fishes in his trunks to pull out a foreign object behind the ref's back" routine. My parents were mortified.

Isn't it so weird he would say that, yet it's not like Bobby Eaton and Dennis Condrey were sporting Lex Luger bodies in an era where that was far more important? Not to mention he made most of his money feuding with Ricky and Robert, who had bodies like most of the fans in the front row.

Funny considering Vince can't seem to quit Brock, and keeps throwing cash at him every time his deal is up. I mean, Brock's got no problem with jobbing clearly, but I can't imagine he's a joy to deal with.

Even better, IIRC it wasn't a broken hand it was one of the first times he popped his shoulder out. I think it happened again later on when was taking out the trash.

I think Orton's pretty good when motivated, hell he might even be better than Piper if he didn't quarter-ass 3/4ths of his career. To claim he's all around better makes me worry all the issues going on in Brazil have broken poor brother KawadaSmile's brain once and for all.

It's a weird reaction since you would expect the first thing you'd do if you were involved in shady dealings is to have enough dirt on everyone else in case shit goes down (or maybe I've just been following the wrestling business too long).

He is fantastic, but the video Roman showed was so grainy it could have been that dude who looked like Rowan from last week for all we know.

Ricochet comes off as a guy who's good on promos, but bad at reading WWE scripts and sounding human. Cedric was pretty good doing it on 205, not sure why they don't let him speak much on the main roster.

TV commentators will be JR, Excalibur, and that Goodboy guy who did Fyter Fest. Everyone seemed to enjoy their work. Tony will basically be a utility guy and do what he can between Georgia sports and MLW commitments. I would love to see him do segments like the "WWF Magazine" ones Mean Gene used to do where he would recap feuds/angles.

Braun already has 2 matches at NOC.

If those Street Profits promos were any more ECW, they'd be taped in Paul's basement.

90s alternative sek69 has issues with Nine Inch Nails being used for the Gears of War 5 commercials.

Cedric vs Cesaro should be pretty good.
