MoS

I meant his "..and I want my damn respect" yesterday. This goes along with "It's about damn time" after his first ring.

Why would anyone be bothered by Bron winning one more ring? He has the best post-Finals quotes in NBA history.

What a badass picture. Best story of the year in WWE, and that includes Roman's heel run and whatever nonsense Fiend is doing with Alexa

Did they specify whether Bayley-Sasha will be HitC?

No reason they couldn't have had someone else in the slot. It's not as if the Jericho-Luther connection is very deep. It is barely a connection. I honestly loved that silly twist at the end. They are dragging Jericho-MJF out and I am here for it. Great episode of Dynamite, mostly because of the amazing dog collar match and the really really fun hoss match at the beginning. Next week is going to be great.

This is a bad match and a bad main event and if indulging Jericho means indulging shit like this, then Tony Khan should put his foot down.

Serena managed to carry Swole to a good match. Love Mox's promos

Seriously, he PUT THE CHAIN AROUND BRODIE'S TEETH AND YANKED IT HARD

I would have had Brodie retain, but that was one of AEW's best matches ever and that finishing spot was SICK

This match is incredible

This match already rules. Cody's shtick can get overwrought sometimes, but his highs are incredibly high

With his hair looking as evergreen as ever. Still not sure why Cody dyed his hair back to black

The weenies bit is straight out of a terrible Raw segment. Bad stuff.

Not just that, but in the Archer promo, he mentioned NJPW by name. Pretty sure it's the first time on AEW television. Theyusually used to say "in Japan" or "in the Tokyo Dome"

I would have honestly put Hobbs over. When was the last time any major wrestling promotion made a huge new star by giving them a big win right off the bat?

J.R botching Starks' name literally one minute into the podcast. At what point do they pull the plug on his decrepit ass

30 years of Jericho!

You'll take Butler's performance over Jodan's flu/food poisoning game?

Yeah this is a fair point, even Mox has a good shout.

I agree with this. The problem was not that she was hammy or over the top. The problem was that she was terrible at expressing any kind of emotion. I don't think I have seen her express any genuine emotion apart from "Fucking Americans!!' Which, no offense to you all Americans here, does not take a lot of effort from any of us foreigners. I associate going over the top with how prime heel Mr. McMahon would react to Stone Cold Steve Austin fucking his happiness. And it used to be awesome every time. Now, of course, Vince is a once-in-a-generation performer, but my point is being over the top is actually good in wrestling when you are executing angles resembling soap operas.

Very few comments actually make me laugh out loudly. This did. Well done, bubba.

Bayley v. Sasha is my favourite NXT feud of all-time, but those two were butchered so badly on the main roster, I don't think at present they have a prayer. Bayley has had a good heel title run, and it has really picked up when the Bayley-Sasha angle started, but she is still just a couple of years removed from being squashed by Alexa Bliss in 5 minutes in her hometown. Sahsa too was used to put over Charlotte's PPV streak, and at no point has been treated like even the top women's star on a single brand. Every time she would make a comeback, she would have a ton of momentum, and they would just beat her. Sasha is the youngest amongst them, I think, so she does have time to add to her case.

When did he talk Becky down? Becky did give an interview to him, when he was in Las Vegas. Anyway, I definitely remember him saying Becky would be the first American woman of the new generation to go in. I will try and find the episode. I don't think Charlotte will go in because she has no historical influence argument. She was shoehorned into the WM main event but she was clearly the 3rd wheel there. Meltzer might be a big fan of her work but as I said, work by itself is never enough to go in.

I will try and find in good faith the episode. Can you point to where he has downplayed her chances at the WoN HoF? The thing about the WON HOF criteria is that we have no concrete means to measure drawing power of modern candidates now. When it started, house shows based on advertising marquee names was a thing, as was PPV buys. We don't have PPV now, Network numbers are not the best replacement because WWE offers their entire repository there and the appeal is as much historical as current, and even before COVID, WWE had cut way back down on house shows. That is one of three factors eliminated. Quality of work has always been subjective and I don't think anyone has ever got in based on quality of work alone. By traditional metrics, Cena was the last North American worker who should be in.

It was a mailbag question on a WOR.
