Johnny Sorrow

It being Good Friday, a crown of thorny barb wire on Jesus Cole's head was placed. And then they put him through a table for our sins.

I didn't mind the giant monster dude debuting and squeezing Joe's head. I like my promotions to have a monster. The problem I had was the whole, "lights go out and come back on to reveal him" bit. That only works if the surprise guy is someone we know.

I loved how reverential all the announcers were of Regal when he was out there.

What I meant was the crowd started getting behind Page right before he said that.

Ethan Page babyfacing that segment was wild. The only way this Sammy vs ATT deal works is as a heel vs heel program. And they almost never work.

They can go back to Pete Dunne eventually, but I gotta admit I'm loving Butch as an evil, crazy, and violent Spike Dudley here.

Ludwig has a Kaiser roll in his tights, that's for sure. Holy shit. Man, I love the Bloodline so much. Uso's have to get the Raw belts, right? They need to be draped in all the titles.

Drew is the guy who does nothing for me, but the boys here absolutely love him. He's one of their favorites.

Ludwig Kaiser is the funniest generic German name imaginable. I love it. And I prefer in shape Gunther. His tights aren't distractingly too small anymore. And to be honest, I'm fine with " Gunther". It's dumb but I always thought Walter was a dumb name too.

And " Bodyguard of asshole turning face while crowd chants his name and then he starts destroying motherfuckers" is Old School wrestling booking 101.

Holy shit, Excalibur is marble mouthed tonight. I feel bad for him. You can tell it's frustrating him. I've been there.

Butcher is a guy Vince Sr. would have pushed as one of Backlund's 2 and done at the Garden Main Events. 1985 Vince would have had Butcher on the roster forever, into the early 90's. You know. The years where looking old and bald didn't matter if you were a fucking working monster.

My feed is later, I just watched Joe kill Caster followed by the Lethal promo. Lots of fans shit on nostalgia. I don't. I love it. But I now feel really old popping for ROH 2005 nostalgia. Still love it.

Twitter is full of weirdos who post dumb shit. It's not indicative of all fans of WWE. I saw AEW fans on Twitter freaking out on Cody for showing up at Mania and one guy posted a video of him burning his AEW Cody T-shirt. That's not indicative of all AEW fans, that too is just some Twitter weirdos. And it's not as if people only watch one promotion or the other. That's overblown. Most fans posting online and in the live crowds probably watch at least some of both. I know I do.

Oh, and every match called by Pat is always at least 20% better because Pat's calling it. He's the best in the biz.

My brother said she was Lady Gaga with a Fifth Element motif. She looked amazing.

Cody doing Flip, Flop, and Fly before the third and final Crossrhodes was fucking awesome.

I loved Charlotte vs Rousey cause I can't stand Rousey and I was cheering Charlotte. I popped when Charlotte won. The boys popped HUGE for Drew destroying the ring with his sword. It was one of their biggest pops of the night. My nephew said to his pals,"Dude, that's a real Claymore". They know their weapons from video games. I had the good sense to not tell them that the ring was gimmicked.

This was a damn fun show. The boys were loving it and brother and my sister in law watched. They even loved it. And you haven't lived until you've watched wrestling with my sister in law. She's a blast.

Yeah, I'm not getting the mocking of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders kicking off an event in their home stadium. Did Boogz hurt his knee for real there?

Sharmell's speech last night was amazing. If you didn't check it out, you should. She's on another level as a public speaker.

Get rid of Starks on commentary and then Rampage will be even better. Jericho and Tazz riffing is so much fun.

So, Bucks in black with no bling is a response to FTR? I like that.

No shits given grown up family man Randy Orton has become one of my favorite wrestlers in and out of the ring.

Well, remember the promo Regal cut where he's praising Bryan forever and is like " And Moxley is good too." ? I picked up on something then. So I subscribed to YouTube TV to be able to watch AEW , Turner Classic Movies, and local news and sports. I caved in. But I'm loving being able to DVR AEW and ff through the adds.
