Nice! Where and when is the gig?

What a match! Did you see the post match comments? Roll on 2035!

Birmingham on the 26th, little place called Centrala. Doing a collaboration with another deathmatch fan who'll be on drums.

I'll have to go find it but someone took beautiful shots of the post match segment, caught them just as Jun kissed him.

For some reason, ICW No Holds Barred are coming to Scotland and doing a "Death Match Weekender" with a promotion called BGW.

Apparently its in a nightclub.

Add this to the list with Kenny Omega wrestling in a church and Misawa wrestling in Carluke.

I think that BGW is called Beeding Gums? If so they’ve got quite a bit of buzz about them atm. 

I’ve only seen a few of the NHB shows but looking to check out more. There was one back in January with Hoodfoot vs Nathan Mowery which was crazy. At one point a fan set Mowery on fire. I’ve got to be in the right mood for those shows because they can be quite heavy going!

I'm not going to do a full TOD 22 review or anything yet, I know people here are still waiting to see it BUT I will talk about how it's great to see Nick Gage back here this year while looking like he's taken some time to get fit and ready to wrestle more often again. I think Nick's also going to spend even more time back at CZW too, he's home.

It's a real solid line-up this year, somehow only the first ever time it was shown as a livestream fully with commentary and everything. I think before it's been live to tape and sometimes in a really rough way before it's edited again later.

I seem to remember one being live streamed with no commentary but that may also have been a crack induced dream so fuck knows.

Iceman and son Jack Harrop announced yesterday they're doing a 1,000 skinny tubes deathmatch later this month. 

Scary, considering what 700 regular tubes did to Matt Tremont 2 years ago. I'll be watching, of course, and they always have great matches against each other. 

[Merzbow]

Fuck those skinny tubes, I always hear that they're hell due to the way they break and are far more dangerous. Iceman though.. wild that he's had a mini career resurgence due to wrestling his son, he's pretty much the UKs very own Ian Rotten.

So a proper cunt then.

Jack Harrop is bonkers.

I was, unfortunately, too close when he bladed his arm one time and the subsequent open wound was so gnarly I nearly threw up.

Did you call him a cunt?

[Merzbow]

Anyone know if Drake Younger's stopped being a cunt? I know he's been sober for a while now so hopefully he gained some clarity of mind away from the painkillers and stopped being a Qanon weirdo.

He's been doing something of an apology tour, so he at least seems aware of how far gone he was. But I don't know if he's pulled back enough to hit "not a cunt" yet.

How is CZW doing these days? I never hear anything about it anymore. I was a big fan of it back in the day.

[Merzbow]

It's chugging along, yet still far smaller than it was during the glory days. This event is a bit of an outlier and the first time there's been genuine hype for a while.
