  1. I watched the episode on brawl for all and still think it was a rib on Ross & Cornette for buying into the Dr Death tough guy act Russo tried to take the credit but that smells of McMahon to me. Midcard bully could probably have worked but he didn't have the right kind of charisma to be top of the card in that era in WWF
  2. Yeah great observation. When there was an indie scene it was a pretty strong move to come out of WWE having been "cheated" by the system and value was massively inflated by that, whether justified or not.
  3. Chavo Romero on bloodsport how did I not know about that Just echoing Mox v Barnett praise, really really good. I really do love bloodsport style even if it doesn't always work.
  4. Just waiting for bellator to start properly. Did Logan Paul sign on for a couple of fights or is this just a slightly surreal Pipers Pit? Haven't saw Smackdown in a while Seth Rollins' tie-dye suit was strange
  5. I wouldn't quite say drunk that's a bit much ha. It is Friday tho I would put it this way regards making sense - unless it's a hugely involved storyline I should be able to throw a wrestling show on and understand the motivations of most characters & context should be easy enough. Dynamite doesn't really do that! Its messy and a bit scattergun and the commentary doesn't help. I thought Miro was a face! Anyway bellator is on now, so I am lurching from one rough show to another Have a good night gentlemen
  6. Ha! i stand by my opinion Its not a bad show but none of it really makes any sense. Yes the matches are longer but it doesn't mean the context is any different Pretty extreme reactions lads. Calm down
  7. No need for the ageism either please kid, we are all just temporary vessels upon a rock in space. age is transient
  8. As for it not being crash TV I will put this comparison out to you. The semi-main was a women's tag team match with 10+ people on the outside, one of whom is Matt Hardy in a suit. There is a spot where one woman does a frogsplash and knocks down 5 men. The match is won after a Steve Blackman kendo stick spot. The main event is a ring surrounded by arcade machines and there are at least 3 spots involving a whack a mole machine. A returning woman arrives via a claw machine-was she in it the whole time? The finish derives from some lad being driven in a white SUV by his mother- is this a Judy Bagwell reference intentionally or not. At one point Miro picked up a mame cabinet and tried to throw it at that cowboy looking lad whose mum drove him to the show. Earlier Chris Jericho had thrown MJF through some garden furniture that's indoors for some reason and flushed his head down a toilet before throwing him through the sugar glass door to a pepsi fridge. It was a good laugh tbh but if you describe these spots without sentiment then it these angles are Russo-era crash TV at best. Embrace it
  9. I don't think anyone is a breakout star here tbh except maybe Darby allin or mjf
  10. Just my opinion fella don't take it personal
  11. That's the most I've watched of dynamite in probably six months without turning it over. It's really not a good product but to be fair it is almost approaching crash TV at times and it did keep my attention Miro is clearly the star. Program him against moxley and drop omega and all those bums to the mid card
  12. Good bump through the air hockey table
  13. There is nothing worse than going to advert break with one character on top and then coming back to see that same person getting the shit kicked out of him so badly that they can stack ring barricades on top of him. Makes zero sense
  14. I'm not sure if there's any background to why there are dozens of arcade machines around the ring in the main but if there is the commentary hasn't really explained it. Why is there a whack a mole machine? Miro/Rusev easily the most credible offence I've saw so far, by a country mile. I don't watch this show often but it is pretty confusing even if I have had a drink I do not believe cassidy could get anywhere near Miro in real life and I'm glad he is just getting the shit kicked out of him so far
  15. Probably more of a general comment than anything to do with this show but it's surprising how few people have taped wrists or elbow pads now & I think it's often to their detriment
  16. Of course Kenny Omega got the pin Hope moxley stiffs him
  17. There are a few things that I find curious really. why is the sound compression on the MJF/Jericho segment 8 or 9 times worse than that of the Team Taz one directly before it, why is everything garden furniture, is JR commentating from a different location to everyone else? Or did they just give him a shit headset The polish isn't there is it. Main event pretty cool though love the lucha bros Edit- not the main event
  18. The reason the QT / Cody angle lost so many viewers is because it is one of the worst beatdowns I've saw on any wrestling show since the lockdown. Cody has too much heart to fight his friend, oh look a deeply week right hook knocks out Arn Anderson somehow. Arn. Then the fight after it, is there a single blow that looks like it would hurt at all? Really poor execution on that one. Anyway I am still watching for now
  19. None of them are cool man Kenny Omega is one of the worst "characters" I've ever saw on TV, even if his matches do tend to deliver.
  20. Feels like a work to me
  21. I think the presentation on "World of Sport" in the UK is about as close as you're going to get to it, seeing as it was basically a facsimile of boxing presentation at the time. I would love to watch a modern equivalent but the skillset isnt really there anymore I don't think. Would be good to see someone try.
  22. He got fucking battered! Those strikes after the bell were really uncalled for though, not nice to watch at all
  23. With the roster they've got now they could be running half a dozen little fake promotions out of their performance centre, I don't see why they don't. Just give a few bored road agents the book and see what happens
  24. Internally you have to assume this reflects very badly on our old mate HHH given its all happening under his alleged stewardship There really are some idiots on that roster
  25. I think the main thing with all this is that most people do actually want them to succeed - I know i do - but the failings/problems are so obvious, it's just frustrating that the company doesn't realise it. They need a helping hand from somewhere. Then again, it's not a charity is it. I do like the idea of Moxley and Kingston though. Good pairing.
