AEW's Timeline Youtube series has compiled the entire Ruby Soho/Cool Hand storyline (aka the most feel-good storyline of the year). That's the afternoon sorted.

 

HERE WE FUCKING GO!!!!

WCW 90 please. I would love it if you did that. Love it!

Hope they reveal Stuart Synder like a Scooby-Doo masked villain reveal.

My mate just sent me this. AI doing wrestler themes from prompts. The AJ Styles and Hulk Hogan ones have sent me to another dimension. Bad laughing at them.

 

Just gave that a go and fucking hell the Hogan song just had me gut laughing. That's terrifying and very funny.

Will you be covering WCW or pre 87 WWF when you get to speed because I still love this thread Raid!

Can't let talk of band schisms go without mentioning the incredible Trouble at the Top documentary about rival Bucks Fizz incarnations. Somehow David Van Day of Dollar got rights to the Fizz name, and as Taylor Parkes once described "laid his evil eggs" inside the band. Top notch telly. 

I was lucky enough to see both versions in the same year around 1997/1998. No Cheryl, the fit one or even Shelly Preston in sight. The Bobby G version I saw in Butlins Skegness, with full support act from Stephen Mulhearn.

Anthony Perkins died of AIDS related illness, and his widow died in 9/11 (she was on a plane that flew into the towers)

His story is actually really sad, and I didn't know any of it. Worth reading if you want to depress yourself.

Any good recommendations for things to read pal?

What @LaGooshsays, even for Jericho's inconsistencies, the Painmaker is a fucking dreadful idea. Well not a dreadful idea, he's just weirdly put no effort into what makes that aspect of him different. Even the look, just a bit of eye makeup that looks horrific. It screams of something he'd always wanted to do because The Great Muta or someone had an alter-ego and thought it was the biz, saw how shit it looked and just couldn't admit it to himself. Oh look, he's got a hat.

(before Luger suffered his health issues and become 'loved' by all) 

What's all this about?

She's never left AEW or had a spat to my memory, are we possibly confusing the Big Swole story? 

Anyway it's shit what the OSAC are playing at and it's great seeing her handle so well and be wonderfully supported too, Anthony Bowens was brilliant in his response.

In much nicer news, Ruby Soho is legit (you have to say this with wrestling) pregnant. That Cool Hand Ang eh!

Not Dynamite related but I'm throwing this in here because it's the thread that gets the most eyes, Nyla Rose is brilliant and fuck this shit.

I don't know if WWE Network dubs count but sod it. I think 3 Count and Sid Vicious have dubbed themes just as good as the themes they had at the time. The 3 Count dub gets really stuck in my head.

@JLMof course he does, but it's some wanker on Twitter so it's expected that he's already boring or something nonsense, I'm not a viewer but I know that's obviously poppycock.

I think I said it in another thread but Cody from the start of AEW up until the pandemic began was just phenomenal. He was absolutely brilliant and I loved everything he did from Dustin to Jericho to MJF (except the smashing throne silliness but nevermind). I think @RedRooster saw it before we all did but he was alright after that and through most of 2020, but that QT Marshall feud was where things started to feel off in retrospect even if I didn't see that at the time. All his feuds suddenly started skipping chapters.

"Wheres my Sports Entertainment?"

I saw some brouha that he might be starting his own wrestling promotion. Well sports entertainment promotion sorry. Which just sounds nuts in the modern day especially when any talent he tries to acquire would be absolutely pilloried for associating with him. It must be bollocks but I'd like to see him try, just in the hope it absolutely fucking fails like the WBF or something and he ends up looking the cunt again for our amusement. He's earned it.

Vincent Friell from Trainspotting, Still Game but more importantly he was in Restless Natives, which is absolutely skill and has a proper top soundtrack.

YouTubed Sami coming out. I love a hometown entrance and especially when it's someone as incredibly likeable as Sami Zayn. Loved it, hometown crowd or not, it was well deserved and shot wonderfully. 

Something I've read about is the changes in production on their TV. I hope people enjoy it more because fucking hell it really highlighted how Kevin Dunn had coasted since the early 2000's.

And what fucks me off more with Jericho is he'll somehow probably get this to work. The tosser. I want him to genuinely go all David Icke here with this, dressing in linen white robes, legit deranged.

Or he'll just try a new catchphrase that'll bomb. It's honestly pot luck with the  King of Wetherspoons

Honestly I think a good 75% of my time on there is spent reading/watching your stuff. Always great. Plus I always seem to see it, while plenty of other accounts I seem to miss shitloads of stuff on. Twitter behaves in really odd ways these days.

That's very nice of you fella, glad I'm not an irritant. I only recognise a few people on here through Twitter because there avatar gives the game away so thanks. I'm like you in that I see a big viral post or something many many hours after it's a thing. I don't get it. Facebook is even worse getting posts from weeks ago at the top of the feed.

And while we're at it with a rare double post, here's something I prepared myself.

People being thick cunts in the comments is 'top twitter' now, is it?

No but it was a tweet that did insane numbers and chat and was to me interesting so sorry. Here's my friend who posted this yesterday to make good I guess.

What does LA Knight have to do to stop getting the Fandango comparison?

 

I still think he looks like a jazzed Rob Conway.

Am I right in thinking that no AEW belts were defended at AEW Battle of the Belts?

Yep. FTW, an Eliminator for the International and the ROH Women's.
