Hide the god damn chain.

I'm proud of Miz for finally learning how to lock in the Figure Four correctly.

I do feel like this time around, Joe's mind games should gain him the belt, at least until Styles can get it back from him.

Styles going nuts in front of his kid is almost better than him taking a beating in front of her.

I haven't minded the pace at all, but then I'm me, so...

Hi, did you just awaken from a coma? Would you like some sports betting results from 2012?

I feel like there's rarely been a more annoying time to be a wrestling fan than in the last 24 hours?

Apparently, it's 2.5 years ago I liked better! https://forums.prowrestlingonly.com/topic/32062-blessed-times/

I liked two years ago better.

Lagana can be messsged on Twitter but it likely won't go well. They're focused on the brand.

Fakeism that looks real is always better than realism that looks fake.

There's a stacked CMLL card tonight, including LA Park/Phoenix/Penta vs Rush/Briscoes. I've got kids to juggle and what not, but I'll be at least 2/3rds watching once it gets going. Anyone else want to try out the chatbox while it's on as a group watching experiment?

Melina pointing out that Stacey has a "strong understanding of ring psychology" is my favorite bit of wrestling social media this year.

It's from PWUSA TV. There's a version on dotdotkins channel with both pre and post match promos too. Looks like what we have here is a slight upgrade of VQ as you'd expect. It does have an all time moonsault "knees-up" sell that feels like it's in slow motion.

Taking full credit for this because when cancelling my sub last week, I noted that I was cancelling because I thought we'd be getting more arena footage hidden gems. You're welcome. (I'm only half kidding). So if I'm not mistaken this is from the Thanksgiving Tag Team Tournament ($50k) at the Omni in 83. Teams: Butch Reed & Pez Whatley Randy Savage & Magnum T.A. Jim Neidhart & King Kong Bundy Tommy Rogers & Joe Lightfoot Randy Rose & Jimmy Randolph the Bruise Brothers (Troy Graham and Porkchop Cash, managed by Jimmy Hart) the Russians (Nikolai Volkoff and Korstia Korchenko) Ron Garvin & Jim Duggan Bob Brown & Chick Donovan the Mad Mongolians (Newt Tattrie & Gene Lewis). Main event: Tommy Rich & Buzz Sawyer defeated the Road Warriors (there was also Debbie Combs vs Donna Day, Dibiase vs Brett Sawyer, and Jake vs Wrestling II) I'm not sure Savage/Magnum vs Mad Mongolians would be the match I would pick from that show (it'd either be Reed/Whatley vs Savage/TA or Bruise Brothers vs Garvin/Duggan or Savage/TA) but whatever.

We are here for you, Beast.

I don't at all disagree with your last point.

Los Ingobernables exist, in good part, to the Arena México crowd rejecting all the tecnicos after Mistico left.

Is NXT drawing more than the WWF did in 95?

I'd probably be as angry at my supervisor for putting me in that situation?

I'm at the supermarket. You guys are on your own.

Now they're just screwing with us.

That's actually what Loss and I came up with too. It seemed so outlandish that I bumped this.

If it helps, you're always going to be close to baba to me, big guy.
