Okay, who in the hell is the guy in the tan hat and the lime green t-shirt, goatee w/ no mustache, that is front row, center at every major WWE show for the last several years. He is even front row in Puerto Rico tonight. EIther this guy has a shit ton of disposable income, or there is a story there.

I'm so glad Tamina got drafted to Smackdown so that we'll know which brand she is part of when she makes her once yearly appearance in the womens Royal Rumble.

He does not. I swear it seems that every episode of Dynamite has some annoying asshole that is either a Cornette guy actively looking bored and holding up stupid signs, or a guy like that guy who is just there to be like "look at me, I'm part of the show, pay attention!" and it is so fucking distracting.

No denying that Arn has the best Spinebuster hands down. I just don't feel that his DDT gets the love that it should. Can I also go ahead and nominate "Hollywood" John Tatum for Best Facial Expressions

Mustache Vince is probably promoting him as we speak.

Best DDT to me would have to be Arn Anderson. I know Jake's is considered the original and the best by most, but the way Arn could snap that thing off from out of no where and change the tide of a match was a thing of beauty. For Armdrag, I mean, it has to be Ricky Steamboat, right? and when it comes to punches, I'd like to throw out a name that might get overlooked for being newer..... Chris Hero. I know he throws a ton of elbows, but when he does throw straight punches, they sound fucking brutal and I never see him slapping a thigh.

I feel like with the "I'm so happy to be here, I work so hard, and my dream is to be World Champion" interviews that they are having Sammy give on the All Access show, as well as just doing everything to portray him in a positive light, plus the continued talk of how their relationship derailed Tays babyface run, that he is going to win this thing and they are going to try and turn him.

My Dad always mentions watching Studio Wrestling from Pittsburgh hosted by Chilly Billy. I'm not exactly sure who his favorites were but Sammartino, Dennuci, and Sicluna are the guys he always seems to mention. In later years when he got me into it, he always had a soft spot for Big John Studd, which is probably why I have a soft spot for Studd as well.

I'm just curious, what's wrong with a goatee?

Keith Lee has been one of my favorite guys to watch for the last 5 or 6 years, and I am all for people doing whatever makes them happy. But man, this new look is not doing him any favors. Maybe if he shaved his head and was just rocking the beard it'd be okay, but as it stands he has gone from looking like a big, handsome, intimidating son of a bitch to looking like a heavy set old man.

I totally understand your rant, and that card absolutely looks terrible, and I too would be pissed if I were paying to watch it. But I just wanted to say that while the "Work Horseman" name is the shits, and I don't think much of Henry... JD Drake is actually a pretty damn good worker and I feel like he is someone they could be doing a hell of a lot more with. If you can find it, his match with Black Taurus at the 2022 Battle of Los Angeles was fantastic.

I think he was joking about the judicial system. Also.... Doesn't Ragemaster have a Kid Rock album he should be listening too?

That's terrible news. RIP Mr. Miller Just recently finished their new book, and came to realize what remarkable careers they really had.

You're not alone. After the debacle that was him in last years Rumble, and the groan I gave when he came out last night. I have to admit I may have chuckled at his misfortune as well.

Brock Lesnar vs Jon Jones to unify the WWE and UFC Titles at Wrestlemania 40 is going to draw giant PPV numbers.

God Damn. Those two killed each other. That German suplex was millimeters away from Charlotte having a broken fuckin neck.

Rollins must have inherited the Triple H ridiculously over the top intro spot, because that costume had my house laughing our asses off like the days of the Conan or Terminator entrances.

Imagine if Cena had attempted to pull on that STF, he might have gotten the submission!

The girls did a great job opening the NXT show today, and holy shit I hope Tiffany Stratton is okay after taking that bump to the floor where everyone pretty much failed to catch her.

I was just coming back to say exactly that. Boo on them for treating Nicole Matthews like a fucking scrub. They could have used anyone in that spot, and didn't need a well respected veteran with her level of talent to do a 2 minute TV job. Put her in there with Julia Hart or somebody where she can use all of that experience to help them get better.

The opening segment was good, albeit a bit too cutesy and shooty, but at least it potentially gets some new blood in the title picture. The Cassidy/Jarrett match was well put together and enjoyable, and I've hated JJ since 1995 so that is quite a compliment coming from me! Toni Storm deserves so much better than this Outcasts shit. The angle sucks, Saraya is an albatross, and Ruby isn't over. This main event should be bat shit crazy!

@The Thread Killer Thank You for summing that up. Doesn't sound like anything particularly egregious on Corny's end, and just a bunch of Twidiots losing their shit about nothing.

So, there is apparently some kind of to do about Riho shutting down her Twitter account, Cornette saying something on his podcast (maybe about Hana Kimura?) and Corny fans/AEW fans blaming each other that I am hoping someone here can explain without me actually having to read peoples tweets or listen to Cornette rant about AEW?

It's too bad they ended that Roxanne/Meiko match with the collapsing/stretcher angle. That was a pretty fantastic match, and it certainly didn't need that bullshit.

It has to be Abrams UWF. @GeneJackson95 and I just attempted a podcast of watching the whole run and after 12 episodes we are switching up the concept because we just can't take it. It is nothing but repetitive squash matches with the same talent over and over again that build to absolutely nothing, because there are no house shows or pay per views to build too. You have Abrams, Albano, and John Tolos screaming on nearly every episode, sometimes in mutiple segments and it's getting absolutely no one over. Then you have the utter garbage like Tony Halme as The Viking using an elbow drop to send guys out on a stretcher. Tolos claiming Dan Spivey is at his villa in Greece to cover the fact that he is in Japan and isn't coming back. Billy Jack Haynes cutting an interview againat Colonel Debeers where he claimed he was "babysat by black people" and was "fighting for the blacks and the orientals." Then you have the really famous stuff like Debeers vs the black referee, an angle which apart from being tasteless, is totally nonsensical, when you see how it's run. You also have the other referee that no sells the chair shots from Dr. Death and is lucky to be alive, footage that they would show multiple times for whatever reason!! Seriously, all of that! and that all happens in the first 12 episodes of the fucking show. It's amateur hour, and it only gets worse. Eventually they do get a PPV to build toward, but it only gets worse. So Yeah, that'd get my vote!
