Black is really good at making his kicks look like he's killing folks without actually killing them.

Maybe the rumors of Riddle and Brock getting in an argument were true.

So I guess it's going to be Brock killing geeks until his Mania opponent comes out.

Funny that on a night we got another Charlotte coronation (pun somewhat intended) Beth was out there looking like Ric Flair circa 1986.

She apparently mentors a lot of the women since nearly everyone who's been in the company after her has nothing but reverence when they talk about her.

The problem is that it's based on the Ringkampf stable from WXW/Progress and without that context it's just a bunch of stoic looking Germanic dudes talking about being superior and with the climate these days that just makes folks make uncomfortable assumptions. Speaking of WALTER, it was interesting to read an interview he did recently where he basically said he thought the Survivor Series plans for him were stupid (they were).

They did a segment honoring Mascarita Dorada for 26 years in wrestling, only to have the Ingobernales (Rush/Park/Bestia) attack!

The Stronghearts just showed up and attacked Big Mami and Nino Hamburguesa after the mixed tag title match.

He doesn't. Doing occasional US shows as part of NXT UK was as much as he was willing to do. Of course if the check is big enough that could change, but he wanted to stay close since he has ties with WXW and ran their school.

It's on now, but the main event is Psycho Clown/Pentagon/Fenix vs LA Park/Rush/Bestia del Ring which should be some pretty good AAA craziness.

Well that main event was certainly pretty damn good.

I'm fairly certain I'd rather take an actual shotgun blast to the chest before a chop from WALTER.

Yeah, the announcers were all "not sure what his injury could be" when it seemed pretty clear he got KTFO from that kick.

It still seems weird to me that DIY are bros again so soon after spending years killing each other.

Wasn't expecting Garza to lose the belt already, but I get the feeling this is a "give NXT UK a win that seems kinda important" move.

Still not sure why heel Prince Fin Balor still does the posing in his entrance designed to get the crowd to play along. I mean I know it's because everyone in WWE needs to have an entrance like a video game character, but still.

Perhaps, but it seems the only thing the Giant WWE Braintrust of Creativity can come up with for Shorty G is "someone makes short jokes, so he cuts a promo about how size doesn't matter before getting beaten in the end".

AEW has sold 10,000 tickets for the 3/25 Dynamite show in Newark, which is probably the biggest arena they are going to run in for TV depending on how they stage the show in Atlanta next month.

Off topic, but I had someone call in to my work today with a translator because they only spoke Portuguese and all I could think off is "where is good bubba KawadaSmile when I need him".

It certainly would be something to see him keep up the Mauro-ness for the entire hour plus Rumble match.

The big problem is Mauro needs produced, and (apparently) there's no one in WWE who has the skills to coach someone with his issues that won't result in him having another episode. Thus he's allowed to run amok and ruin what should be great moments. I will confess I haven't watched every event he ever called, but he wasn't nearly this overbearing doing boxing or MMA so clearly there's a way it can be done.

I liked the subtle touch of the tea bag in Kenny's drink to show he wasn't partying like Page was.

I popped for Joey coming out with the "white chick on a Caribbean vacation" cornrows.

I'll cop to being excited to see any development beyond "hey she's a dentist" in terms of character. At least "asshole dentist" is something.

Maybe they have something with heel Britt. I was certainly more entertained by her insulting poor Tony.
