  1. Daga & Tessa vs Jake Crist & Madman Fulton was a really dynamic main-event, fun to see the Daga & Tessa team in IMPACT. Tessa has to win the X-div championship. The way they went from there to the closing angle flew really well too, and what a final angle. Crazy how once again, Callihan makes Brian Cage the most interesting he's even been to me. And again, Melissa Santos being involved also played a primordial role in why I actually care about Cage now. She's a trooper, that piledriver was vile looking (and most probably super safe). Don Callis selling the whole thing was just perfect. He's the best color guy in the business by a ridiculous margin. Once again, and despite no one seemingly watching, IMPACT is doing just a terrific job leading to their biggest show of the year as far as main angles goes, with a fun undercard doing a fine supporting job. Hopefully they get a bit more eyes on them once they truly switch to AXS, because they so deserve it as far as the product goes. Also, Swinger has become the funniest character in pro-wrestling in 2019. WTF ?
  2. Well, people addressing personal family business on a public forum via Twitter, with idiots followers commenting on a private matter without any real knowledge of what is happening, is pretty fucking disgraceful. So yeah, maybe she's right, maybe she isn't, but really, none of anyone's fucking business but their own. The less said about Reby's Twitter habits, the better. Everytime someone posts something here, she comes of as awful and attention whorish. Then again, Twitter gets the worst out of people anyway, so that's not saying much.
  3. The Japan vs Scotland rugby match is taking place right now. So, hopefully the NJPW show is a go. If Japan gets eliminated, poor Taguchi is gonna be so sad.
  4. BTW, does anyone really knows what Bischoff is actually doing ? Meltz mentioned the other day when asked that very question that people backstage had no idea yet, but that Uncle Eric was seen at catering... (I don't even want to picture what the Bischoff podcast sounds like these days ! )
  5. Smells like WCW Spirit to me... (likewise, the order of the picks on the first draft show that was basically leaked)
  6. What did they do over the last two weeks ? They built toward the Saudi shows. The two major angles of the New Boom Era LOL have nothing to do with their actual audience or grabbing a new audience. It has everything to do with doing services for a crimical regime who beheaded a journalist last year. Meanwhile, AEW is talking to its fans and tries to deliver something they will enjoy.

    NWA Powerrr

    Give me Catrina, evil immortal witch, and Allie getting her throat cut in the Undead Realm over Nick Aldis cosplaying Ric Flair while Corny is drolling anyday. Also, the first season of Lucha Underground had tons of hype. IMPACT is just a sad story, they've been better than WWE consistently over the last 19 months *at least* and a super easy pro-wrestling show to watch with terrific PPV's. Dixie Carter's stupidity fucked it all up in the past and they are stained for life.
  8. I remember when Bayley was über-over in NXT, the talk was that she could become a female John Cena on the main roster, the ultimate babyface and someone who would draw the kids and sell shitloads of merchandise. 6 months in, she was dead in the water.
  9. With social media it doesn't matter, you know people would adress it anyway. I mean, there was tons of transphobic shit on the Youtube chats of the Buy In at All Out, and I don't think Nyla had refered to herself as trans yet by then.
  10. Well, they could have a heel working a TERF gimmick opposing Nyla. I don't think pro-wrestling is quite ready for that kind of angle though… The question of the body in transgender issues is quite interesting as far as pro-wrestling goes though (well, sports in general), especially in a context where some promotions do man vs woman matches without blinking (AAA, IMPACT, tons of indies).
  11. ^^ Well, I actually kinda like it. Speaking about hip-hop and pro-wrestling and WTF factor, Lil Kim is back in 2019 and this track begins with a sample of Micheal Cole saying "Mark Henry". I Have no idea either. (kinda like that track too)
  12. And they probably infered that people watching AEW had to come from their own audience, because there's nothing outside of WWE, pro-wrestling fans are WWE fans. That was a pretty big misjudgement on their part.
  13. Honestly she really hasn't been featured that much. Once she gets to do a bunch of single matches, it'll be easier to see where she really stands for now. Nyla Rose is easier to pick apart because of her shape and the role she's supposed to play. Both are green.
  14. Can't wait to see the rest of the sh read the rest of the thread tomorrow morning. Have fun people...

  16. Ah ah ! I thought my "I'm an atheist" comeback earlier was pretty good too though. Shorty Gable is them Redroostering this poor guy.
  17. My first look at King Corbin. Talking about corny shit... I would. I could maybe watch a few NXT matches then.
  18. You wish Corny was coming, so at least they'd have one good announcer. Terrible wordplay aside, I just saw the "War room" (SD shown "almost live" and in English in France. Yeah... so lucky, I know). This is corny as shit indeed. And now, Stephy. Can't they chant "Blood money " at her or something already ?
  19. I know, I edited my post, but you are too quick !
