Probably the best they’ve had in many a year. And there are no scrubs in sight (Priest is borderline), just a bunch of over people. I thought that was Ashens, but I believe that is LA Knight under the 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gaffer Posted December 4, 2023 Author Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) Define wrestling being hot right now: CM Punk comes back to WWE in the mother of all shock returns and a week later on an episode of Smackdown some 41 year old bloke doing the most routine beatdown run-in probably gets a slightly bigger pop. Edited December 4, 2023 by Gay as FOOK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merzbow Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 It's so crazy that people have to order a Christmas dinner from them well in advance just to get some fried chicken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing stuff. It's a good example of where a country actually imports traditions from elsewhere - the manager of KFC in Nagoya deciding to create a "Christmas tradition" inspired by gaijin, because Japan didnt really have any Christmas tradition, and why would they? They're mostly Buddhists. Fairly accessible read here ; https://www.bbc.com/worklife/article/20161216-why-japan-celebrates-christmas-with-kfc There's a parallel with the UK embracing "Black Friday" with most of the rabid, bargain-hungry consumers probably oblivious to the fact it comes from the US tradition of everyone starting their sales the day after Thanksgiving.

Even the "sales" are pretty standard now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
