[2020-07-14-BASARA] Fuminori Abe vs Isami Kodaka
This was a perfect example of how to make a style of match that some find boring a compelling story of attrition and these two knocked it out the park. It was fun seeing Kodaka out of his realm with the deathmatches, I need more of it.

[2020-07-24-Stardom-Cinderella Summer In Nagoya] Mayu Iwatani vs Jungle Kyona
Jungle in her hometown going one more time for the red belt and also dedicating this to the memory of Hana Kimura, the stakes were high. In the case of Iwanti she's determined to defend her title in the place where she got injured and then later lost the red belt last year. This was nothing short of excellent, high drama from start to finish. Jungle using her power game and throwing bombs when need contrasted nicely with Mayu using her quickness and strikes to combat the attacks. Even though the finish came out no where it took nothing away from the masterpiece these two women painted. I'm a little bummed Jungle didn't win but this was a damn good match and is a very strong MOTYC.

WWE TV 7/27 - 8/2 HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE KING OF KINGS
This company loves making their babyfaces look like fools, they didn't have to do Asuka like that.

WWE TV 7/27 - 8/2 HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE KING OF KINGS
Just watch the video and my god it was so lame. One it makes Cole look like a chump instead of a star and two the larger audience don't know who Pat McAfee is. I mean if this was on Joe Rogan's podcast now we're talking because know him not on a show of a retired football player that wouldn't pass the mom test, and I like McAfee.

Is Claudio Castagnoli/Antonio Cesaro the best tag worker of this century?
His great but I can't say he's the best of this century. Don't get me wrong I love his work and he is always the standout of every tag team he's in it's most of the tag teams his was in are not consistent in putting out great performances as a whole.

[2020-07-18-Impact-Slammiversary XVIII] Deonna Purrazzo vs Jordynne Grace
These two brought it here. A simple story of contrasting styles with the technical savvy of Purrazzo against the brute force of Grace. They wasted no time going at it with each trying to establish dominance from the start, it was a stalemate until Deonna found her opportunity to work on Jordynne’s left arm. The arm work was great, it looked vicious with Grace also did a good job of selling working underneath. Grace had a good comeback with a senton and worked over on Deonna’s back. Everything escalated with cool transitions of Grace trying to fend off the fujiwara until finally getting caught and tapping out. This match lived up to the hype and stole the show on Slammiversay.

WWE TV 07/20 - 07/26 Eye popping action
Well Mark did what he said cause their viewership is in the toilet, that clip does not age well. Whenever Monday Night Football comes get the shovels because it's over.

NWA Powerrr
Strom would be perfect in a program with MJF, the brash young upcoming star against the loveable old veteran. The promos back and forth would be amazing plus Mama Storm could be in a segment or two.

[1993-11-09-LLPW] Akira Hokuto vs Rumi Kazama (Hair vs Hair)
An intense struggle that started hot from jump with both women showing great urgency in trying to secure the win quickly as possible. Everything they did was simple but executed on a more vicious level. Hokuto went nuts on Kazama’s back leading to some great brawling. In return Kazama tried her hardest to kick the leg off Hokuto. It all climaxed with the coolest sleeper hold i’d ever seen. This was great, it was short and the two went at a pace that made the finish believable.

They're going to make it look lame and think they're doing high concept art.

The Cancellation of Jim Cornette
One of favorite matches of the last decade was Shasa Banks/Bayley at Takeover Brooklyn and we all know that everything was laid out and took nothing away from it. For me whether it's called on the fly or laid out step by step did they make think damn that was a great wrestling match or man that was phony as hell. WWM you're right about the blown spots. I think it comes down to the level of worker on how to make those situations look authentic. Only example I can think of is the blown spot between Jushin Liger/Great Sasuke at the 94 Super J cup.

Is Impact* the best wrestling promotion in history? *(Now TNA again, 2024)
They did a good job restructuring the card dealing with the Blanchard/Elgin drama. I'm most excited for for Grace/Purrazzo, they've had a good build and also did a great job getting over Deonna's character.

The Cancellation of Jim Cornette
Steamboat went over every step in great depth that him and savage laid out on his dvd in 09. I also remember hearing stories of how Vince and company in 01 thought that DDP was not a good worker because he laid out his matches step by step, any truth to that?

AEW Fyter Fest 2020 - Night one
Good first night of Fyter Fest. Nothing dragged and most importantly everyone felt like a star. If there wasn't a commercial break I would've put Shida/Ford in the notebook.

Valid point, wonder if they think this will be the gateway for a working agreement with New Japan?

#SpeakingOut: Industry-wide sexual misconduct (assault/harrassment/grooming/etc) accusations and their repercussions
That felt more like a audition for a movie than a heartfelt apology.
