Disco has been one of the the most obnoxious wrestlers on Twitter for a while now. Smug as fuck despite always sounding dumb as fuck. Just a total chud.
-
What is the link? I wouldn't mind following it.
-
So, what would stop her from using Dewdrop (correct spelling) in AEW/TNA/the indies? (Besides it being a fucking awful name, of course.)
-
Samoa Joe is back in NXT (in a non-wrestling role as GM Regal's enforcer). No idea why he was ever let go in the first place.
-
Man, this really is the best bang for the buck ever... In addition to the book itself, there's a podcast and now links to all of the matches. I'm looking forward to diving in. -
I'll honestly admit I was distracted during the last two matches. I probably missed a good one between Raquel Gonzales and Ember Moon, but what flashes I saw of the main event did little to reel me in. I was going to post exactly this, so thanks for doing it for me.
-
Match wasn't pretty, but it sure was fun. Wrong guy won IMO.
-
This post-match segment is the shits - it died an instant death with Mercedes' obvious height advantage and cheesy screams.
-
That feels like it ended just as it was getting started. Poor Mercedes Martinez.
-
MSK does nothing for me. Is it just me? I mean, their ringwork is fine, but I have no idea who the fuck they are as characters or why I should care about them. (Not a problem unique to them in NXT/WWE, but still...)
-
Only on certain devices. Not on Roku yet. If it was a 15-20 minute sprint, it could be fun. But it will be a 40-minute "epic." Zzz. Am I the only one who sees absolutely nothing in Karrion Kross?
-
Bronson Reed saying Santos Escobar should've "stayed in his lane" in the Cruiserweight division instead of challenging for the North American Championship encapsulates everything that's wrong with this company.

Under-the-radar wrestling book recommendations
C.S. replied to Cross Face Chicken Wing's topic in Pro Wrestling
Found this free book through Reddit: Professional Wrestling - The Theatre of the Absurd: I Never Wanted to be a Big Star by Tom Rocky Stone, aka Steve Hall I've never heard of this book or the author, but it sounds interesting - and free is free! https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B096YBR7FF/ -
The Bellas say it's because their babies are getting older and they don't want to raise their kids on camera when the kids have no say in the matter. Commendable.

While I think it's questionable to trust your body to a bingo hall nobody like Nick Gage, I will say in Cardona's defense that he desperately needs to reinvent himself. The Zack Ryder "woo woo woo" shit is completely played out. Displaying a different side of his character/personality isn't necessarily a bad thing, and it might get promoters to see him in a new light. Similar to the dead in the water CJ Parker becoming Juice Robinson, Cody reinventing himself with the list of dream matches after Stardust, etc. (Different situations there, but same overall effect.) Case-in-point: This is the most anyone has talked about Zack Ryder/Matt Cardona in years. Even his AEW/TNA stints were met with apathy and crickets.
-
Supposedly Cardona's action figure hobby/business is lucrative. This Gage thing sounds like Cardona doing what he wants to do now, having fun, and giving no fucks because he's already made his money.
-
What am I missing? What did he say there that was objectionable?
-
The NWA took all the wrong lessons from...er, well, the NWA.
-
You mean the match where a "rogue cameraman" flashed a fireball in Hogan's face for the finish? Hardly a squash or a clean loss.
-
While I'm sure it's true that there are "some kangaroos loose in Drake's top paddock" (lol), speaking in present tense - which a lot of people do, whether it's warranted it or not - isn't really an indication of that.
-
No indie promoter is going to give a shit about that, nor should they. But Braun isn't going to your local bingo hall anyway... He'd sign with another major league promotion or Japan, if he goes anywhere at all. My guess is he's back in WWE by WrestleMania.
-
Drake Wuertz opened up about his release, and it's a real doozy - blaming David Bixenspan for getting the ball rolling, "woke cancel culture," and acting like his suspension was because he refused to stop going to church during a pandemic. With that said, he did publicly disavow Q and said he had Covid like "whole chunk of the roster" so he's not a Covid-denier. At least that's something. https://www.fightful.com/wrestling/drake-wuertz-admits-he-tested-positive-covid-wasn-t-surprised-wwe-release
-
Don't forget that wacky (and probably untrue) rumor where he kneeled in front of Karen Angle/Jarrett in a bar begging for forgiveness so he wouldn't get heat with Kurt.

A great read...
