  1. He really really did. I..I have no words
  2. WTF was the point of that shitty skit? Omega is literally the biggest most annoying dork in the world when he is not being restrained by competent bookers
  3. Did......did JR just call Omega the "WWE champion"..
  4. YEAH KILL THAT OLD FUCK CAGE
  5. Super-great match Why is Luthor on my screen.
  6. I watch on Fite on my Indian account even here in NY (VPN FTW) so I don't know if this is happening during commercials, but Serena is hitting Riho with some NASTY uppercuts and Riho is selling them like a champ. These two are so great at pro wrestling
  7. Do you have any Serena Deeb recommendations? She's been the AEW women's MVP as far as getting great matches out of completely green talent is concerned and it's made me want to check out more of her work
  8. What if.... and this is wild and unprecedented so bear with me, but what if.... he starts talking and suddenly Taz interrupts him?!?! I am totally over Matt Hardy. If I never see him in the ring again, it won't be too soon. I get the argument that he is working with young talents and getting them in the spotlight, but to me, he's just taking the spotlight away from them. And he was never big enough for wrestlers to feel like stars just by sharing screentime with him
  9. Yeah it's almost as if context and people's general professed beliefs matter when making such judgments. Some people who rush to virtue-signal and defend outspoken racists because they want to appear rational and above partisan finger-pointing don't stop for 2 seconds to think of how ridiculous they are being. The pearl-clutching does get funny though, so that's a silver lining
  10. I don't know how many, if any, American women I will have on my list - Sasha and Bayley are the biggest possibilities right now. Aja might be my number one though
  11. Can't wait for the new Sting segment where he does exactly what he has done every week since his debut!
  12. I advise you to take your dumbass condescension and piss off
  13. Literally nobody cares if Impact finds someone in AEW hard to deal with
  14. IIRC, Taker was dealing with multiple injuries from 1998 all the way to early 2001, even after his comeback as the American Badass, where he was downright fat and in the worst shape we have ever seen him, including BrokenTaker the last few Manias. Meltzer often talks about how many of his friends and sources in WWF told him that Taker would need to retire soon cuz he's too banged up......in late 1997. That explains why he never had even one classic match in the Attitude Era (Mankind HitC being a complete exception for obvious reasons) until his fun HHH smoke-and-mirrors brawl against Hunter on the day often held to be the last day of Attitude.
  15. My fantasy booking for JCP has always been to turn Flair face in 1986 and let him be the man for a few years. He could always turn back heel when it was time to put over the next generation of muscleheads. I know he didn't like working face, but that's why you have bookers looking at the larger picture.
  16. Really interesting. Do you think his change in character also was reflected in how he worked matches?
  17. Also, like, does Impact really have enough clout to put this relationship in jeopardy over something like this? It's clear that so far this cross-promotion has benefited Impact far more disproportionately than it has AEW. So, even if this is true, the only way Sammy would be in trouble would be if he pissed off Tony Khan, and really, I don't think anything to do with Impact would piss off Tony Khan enough to get him really mad at Guevera, who is one of AEW's biggest young stars and someone with so much future potential
  18. Good for you
  19. Sorry but this is a total misunderstanding of how demos work and how Nielsen ratings work. Of course kids don't own Nielsen boxes. Nielsen boxes also measure viewers per household, as well as the age and sex of every single viewer in that household who is watching. If the TV is left on by boomers because their grandkids want to watch, that absolutely will be reflected in the demo ratings. Your anecdotal experience is not reality. I am glad that you see a lot of kids in house shows you go to, and know kids that enjoy WWE. It doesn't change the fact that by and large, WWE's biggest audience is boomer. Hell, house show numbers had nosedived so ridiculously, that even before the pandemic they had greatly scaled down on the live events they were doing, cuz they were literally losing money on them, something that would have been inconceivable just a few years ago. Like it or not, WWE's biggest income stream is TV rights, and their TV audience is largely boomers, and that remains so even if you don't personally like the fact or completely misunderstand how Nielsen works. It doesn't change just because you know a lot of kids that love WWE. Anecdotal evidence is not reality. Sorry.
  20. In case you didn't know, he was the boy in the middle of the early 90s WWF sexual scandal involving Mel Philips. This is absolutely awful. May he rest in peace
  21. Have to go with Fujinami, who has had one of the longest, most complete career arcs I have seen. A genuine GOAT contender
  22. I still hope they return for 2026 GWE. Dylan barely posts about wrestling even on Twitter, but Loss has had some absolutely fascinating insights and observations/analyses on wrestling over on Twitter. The board misses him and Dylan and was so much better with them posting regularly
