This crossed my mind while reading the excellent Tokyo Dome wrestling history book - sellouts in the Tokyo Dome were announced at higher figures in the late 80s and 90s than they have been for the recent 1/4 NJPW shows. Of course, the earlier figures were worked - 60k is an obvious massive exaggeration - but is the difference explained just by figures being worked back then? Or does NJPW not put as many tickets on sale as they used to back in the day?

What the fuck is he even trying to say. Regardless, wouldn't put it past Vince to give him a mega-push for telling the liberal sjws to suck it

Not a fan of this segment. Seems like a cheap ripoff of an iconic wrestling moment, completely inorganic and lazy. And they could have given Tyson a t-shirt he could have torn off, that was embarrassing.

That match was too long and boring. I do NOT look forward to Kenny going 30 mins of back and forth with these two. It's way too soon to turn Wardlow. Hopefully this is just a tease.

It's funny he thought Young Bucks would not look believable against those teams, cuz I just saw them face off with one of Corny's favourite teams and it was not the Bucks that looked small there.

Eww Jimmy Havoc

Cody is an excellent promo and it makes the decision to not have him cut a promo on the go-home PPV show even more baffling. I admit I popped a bit for that WWE dig.

Shida is a badass and will be a great champ imo.

Jericho-Cassidy will rule so hard.

"A web of evils" Dr Britt Baker is awesome. I dunno about trying to put the face shine on the ref though.

"Oh, Taz is gonna talk"

I don't like the Young Bucks, but this eventual match will be money.

Idc, multiple-personality Matt Hardy is awesome

What exactly is a pep rally

I get disliking the Stadium Stampede, although I loved it. Did you not like Mox-Lee? The build up was bad and Lee was a weak world title challenger, but I thought they put up an excellent match bell to bell, getting Lee over as a monster and Mox over as a badass but smart ass-kicker. Some of the spots would have worked better with a crowd, but it was hard-hitting and perhaps the only match that did not go too long. Thinking back to AEW world title matches, I honestly cannot think of any that's better. Jericho-Cody had more drama, but I thought this match is the best world title match in AEW to date.

One can only hope and pray that is indeed the case

Looking forward to Edge making psycho faces when he snaps at Orton and Dave comparing him to Robert De Niro or something

lol I had literally forgotten Scott Keith existed. I remember reading his reports excitedly around 15 years back, when WWE would not air live in India. Does he still use "5 moves of doom" as an insult?

My litmus test is to see if the gimmick is meant to make people laugh in derision. While Asuka and Sane are heels, they are honestly portrayed as awesome so I have no issues with it.

Matt Riddle is reportedly going to Smackdown soon, so eagerly waiting for him to put over Corbin and trade wins and losses with Miz soon

Vince Sr must be doing moonsaults in his grave at the idea of a straight wrestling match being the second step in a feud after the grudge match.

Vince Russo would book a wig on a pole match

Tbf if that becomes a trend I will squarely blame Cody

Completely agreed.

Meltzer said that there is talk of making such online conduct criminal in the wake of this, and people who sent her those messages and subsequently deleted their accounts are scared. Good. I hope they shit themselves in fear every second until they get thrown in jail.
