(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.

Difficult to quantify, it’s mainly a gut feeling.  There’s lot of showmanship in their acts, a lot of appealing to the back row that would translate well into big arenas and glossy WWE entrances.

 They’re both very attractive as well and have matinee looks if you know what I mean.  They’ll get a lot of likes, reposts, sell a lot of merch.

 None of this precludes them from being a success in AEW but there are just certain wrestlers that look like WWE could make a lot of money with/for.

 I’d love to know how AEW merch cheques compare with WWE ones.  I imagine some wrestlers could double their income.  You have to think it’s one of the reasons Jade went there.

 

 

I imagine the merch is vastly different and WWE probably coins in more as the biggest promotion with the bigger machine (regardless of AEW owned wealth). But on the flip for the AEW side they can also have their own merch etc, which probably doesn't equal WWE either, but they can at least market themselves and actually have merch. Matt Cardona being a super example of how to spin that.

Doesn't Penta do AEW because it frees him up to work Mexico as that's his thing? Or an I getting the rules wrong again?

@Lokigenuinely asking here, what makes Starks & Britt feel more WWE? That's not a criticism it's merely not being a WWE viewer and not following what they look for? I'm guessing Cody in WWE now is similar to when AEW first began and he was cutting all those superb promos and angles from late 2019 to the start of the pandemic?

And they got all that from a guy pointing at a sign? Amazing. Dread to think how they react to HHH's regular pointy photos.

Pretty much, and here's me thinking Israel/Iran was gonna be the WW3 powder keg.

Thank you for answering my question but don't accuse me of being defensive either, I just wanted a follow up to what you'd do on the other side and you answered it hypothetically which was the idea of your topic and everyone's brain will process the topic differently. 

You did miss a trick keeping Jay Lethal though.

Are they angry because the guy would like to enjoy a drink without listening to screaming kids? I mean hardly crime of the century is it. Sometimes I wish that and I have three of them.

The chat tends to be that anyone who doesn't want kids being cunts in a pub or wanting kids in general also want to restrict the places mothers and therefore women are allowed, so they're all misogynists.

This picture has lead to quite a bit of chat and I think a lot of people have gone completely out of their tree.
