I really want to congratulate Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso
it was a lofty goal to have the worst Wrestlemania match of all time but I believed in them and my faith paid off🔥🔥🔥
the ROH archive is safe and the PWG one is as well, but I really implore people to look for EVOLVE shows and save them if you can. that shit is locked away on some computer somewhere in Stamford and will never come out. it’s not a perfect promotion, but it shouldn’t be forgotten
I mean like what is there to say to weird shit like this lmfaooo this is too odd and gross to even verbalize. The weirdest of weirdos on this fucking app.
the fact we’re still doing “MJF can actually go” matches in 2024 is so fucking stupid that I don’t know how to engage with it. I’m not mad at him having “good” matches but he JUST went an hour with Danielson LAST FUCKING YEAR. in a booking capacity you already proved your point !
Jericho stopped using Judas to hide the fact people were booing and to get ahead of them not singing along anymore and then did a worse version of what Joe/HOOK already accomplished this year with all his melodrama. truly a horrid wrestler
anyone saying Cody needed longer or more reasoning behind winning the title *is* nonsensical, but to make any allusion to this mirroring any actual black life and struggle is purposefully devaluing and straight up mocking people, it’s weird and low even for him
Konosuke Takeshita has had four pay-per-view matches in
#AEW
, and all of them were on television. It's not even the end of July and he's fucked up your Rookie of the Year Ballot. That race is over, he has my vote. Nobody else is getting it.
#AEWDynamite
I don’t understand this idea that Sasha just needs to suck up the constant stops and starts and broken promises and that she’s somehow at fault for being fed up with all her angles and plans getting changed.
if you’re someone who
will use Will Ospreay’s impact on the now dead British wrestling as part of his case Observer HOF case, but then also dismisses Yoshiaki Fujiwara as a candidate because "shoot style failed" then you are full of shit and it's hard to take you seriously
this has been extremely funny and sort of is an interesting case study
ultimately the separation between Bryan and Kenny is that Bryan’s way closer to being able to replicate Kenny’s most impressive feats if they switch spots than Kenny would be able to do Bryan’s
gave it my best shot. some might be borderline, and realistically it hovers around 50, but that's the point and people who like some of the canon ROH classics more than me might go even further
and of course the Dark Flowsion Puro accounts and all those fucking dorks are gonna applaud this stupid ass shit and say “people really forgot how much of a hooper MJF is”, fuck out of my face dawg
I hope Ariel Helwani isn’t gonna get off the hook here while we’re grilling journalists. The way he talked about Vince being at UFC 276 as if it was such a cool thing was disgusting too.
it goes without saying, but Joseph is one of my favorite people and I’m always proud to call him a friend. if you’re here for someone to “pick a side”, take that shit somewhere else. but if you want someone who actually likes wrestling, there’s no one better than Joseph.
I don’t even hate the match, but the idea that I’m supposed to be happy as confetti falls and all these corporate suits named in the lawsuit get to be bowed to and cheered is hilarious. Cody isn’t the best babyface in the story, the whole company is. That sucks for many reasons!
Scanner: Dispatch says a woman is calling for help because her partner stabbed her with a screwdriver.
A cop says "There used to be such a thing as marriage counseling, now they just call the cops on their spouse," another cop laughs & says "and they want to defund us."
badly wish Takuya Nomura was wrestling in the 90s so he could leave his home fed and find a money guy to build his own promotion around. what I’m saying is I want Nomura vs Bart Vale
if ROH doesn’t come back, we should be rooting for another promotion to rise up and become a place where people can make a living. AEW is great and all but we shouldn’t want them to “buy” another promotion, you should want AEW’s success to lead to healthier scene all around
Being a black wrestling fan is wanting to ask people what they think a bald, white convict of 5 years is talking about when he says “gang affiliated” but knowing all you’ll probably get is hostility.
After Summer Sizzler and Still Chasing, only way the OTT 5th Anniversary should end is with Ryan Smile running in during Starr/Devlin. Gotta go 3/3 here
1. Rush in 80s CMLL
2. peak Shinjiro Ohtani in 2010s BJW
3. Jay Briscoe or Mark Briscoe in either Georgia Championship Wrestling, Championship Wrestling from Florida or Mid-South (just one of the southern territories tbh)
Wrestling will continue to fail people if the best you can offer to make things safer after a storm of abuse and grooming stories, is say “well other wrestlers thought it was fine to use him”. Listening to wrestlers on stuff like this is what causes problems in the first place!
yo…there’s like 4 different all time level visuals in this match and that’s still not even its biggest selling point wtf yeah this shit is a fucking masterpiece. Muta is just a total MOTHERFUCKER here and Tenryu’s selling is perfect
I swear the more time I spend on here, the more I remember why I only tweeted about manga and basketball for 2 years. a dude who still employs Chris Jericho and had Ric Flair all over his product gets to wag his finger at someone and I’m seeing shit like “it’s pro wrestling” lmao
Devlin vs WALTER captures the idea of pride better than most matches ever will. An honestly flawless match with a special atmosphere that deserves every bit of praise it’s gotten and everyone should seek out.
“imma knock the YEET out yo ass”
so not only is Jey Uso making a 10 year old vine his catchphrase, he’s making up entirely new uses and context for it. I’m pretty sure I hate him
This is mostly due to him wrestling in a promotion in Japan that no one cares about and not being on as many OTT cards as other guys but man, Sean Guinness is probably one of the better wrestlers no one talks about
Lee Moriarty vs Darius Lockhart is one of the best matches of the year. Darius wasn’t as active in 2021 as I’d wished but 2022 will be huge for him. He’s one of the best in the world, it’s just a matter of chances. Go out of your way to watch this.
After all the pain that people had to courage to say. After all the lip service and changed ownership and stripping of titles, you still feel the need to book someone that was directly named in SO and didn’t have the guts to admit it until days later after being asked. Cowards
I really shouldn’t be surprised at anything wrestling fans are capable of, but the type of brain it takes to think CVV interviewing Clark and Riddle back to back is some regular, normal thing is nauseating
debuting Okada as a heel was literally the best case scenario for everyone. I really thought they’d do the boring thing and have him just come in as a face, but wow. can’t get over how much they nailed that
people keep liking this tweet for some reason, so if you’re here come read about the longest reigning EVOLVE champion on the anniversary of one of his defining matches

something I’ve wanted to write since day one at LTBR and I’m glad that it’s finally here
Drugz is more than the stigmas he’s had on his name and I wrote about why he deserves his flowers
I’m glad people love Thatcher/WALTER but in focusing on how brutal it was, Timothy Thatcher’s babyface performance was AMAZING. I love heel Thatcher but don’t forget he’s one of the best sellers ever and that was on full display there.
Jonathan Gresham vs David Starr from Super Indy is must watch, borders on my top 10 for the year. The best performances from either guy in a long time and that’s saying a lot for two BITW caliber dudes
what’s crazy is if someone said that was the 4TH best Bryan Danielson match of the year so far they wouldn’t be crazy lmaoooo the fucking best to ever do this shit
We are proud to announce That COTY Panelist

was just ranting about how people conveniently want to leave out this period of time when talking about him. people never took it seriously and still don’t. so gross.
When CB was publicly terrorizing & stalking Karrueche I watched you nasty people make memes & laugh about him publicly abusing her. So ain’t no way y’all gone play in my face. Y’all enabled his behavior too!
hello, Quentin here. idk why I decided to do this from the pod account, but I wanted to say thank you all so much who have listened to the podcast in the last few weeks. I’ve been open about this, but the last 2 years was rough for me and wrestling was the hobby left behind
Trevor Lee is one of the most talented wrestlers of his generation and at his peak maybe the best wrestler in the world. I hope people start smartening up to how special he is and can still can be. Only 30 years old
