His coat changes with their gear, which has been red, black, gray, navy blue, and the old NXT gear with their names and flags on their tights. There's really no way to not get some vague Nazi vibe from the group, but I don't think they lean into it. Certainly not like they would in other eras, at least.

The real American Nightmare is the people/labor rising up. Really makes you think.

There should be a team/stable called the Smart Marx who are wrestling's first Marxist team

MJF vs Kenny (or Bucks) seems like such a culture shock

Couple of thoughts: Orange Cassidy is more unbeatable than Roman. Guy had 20 straight defenses and then beat 20 guys at once. Watched the opening moments of Jericho/Cole, saw Sabu doing a table spot in a suit, knew things couldn't top that, so skipped to the end. Kind of weird fans were booing the finish. Some classic old school fuckery in the tag match. Wardlow is SO cold. Shit is wild. Not since Samson has a haircut ruined a man. What the fuck was with the Arn biting Lucha's thumb to the bone spot lmao. Christian would have been ideal for the TNT Championship. Give him a Regal/Arn style TV Championship run to work with young guys every week for three months. Pleasantly surprised with Taya/Jade as I've never been impressed with Taya. It will be interesting to see where Jade goes, as recovery after a long win streak ending is usually hard for any character in any era. Pillars match had some overly cutesy stuff, but also a lot of really cool stuff. MJF's screaming shit and fuck during matches is corny as hell. Bummer that the BCC/Elite feud is primarily garbage brawl stuff when there are so many great match ups that could go on for months.

The year is 2023. Sabu is doing table spots in a suit. Jeff Jarrett, Christian, Dustin Rhodes, and Billy Gunn are in title matches. The Jackyl is involved in the main event angle. Jim Ross and Tony Schiavone are on commentary.

Ad buy rates are more important than ratings, and no companies wanted to advertise on WCW at the end. Besides like....Surge, probably Slim Jims.

Check the ticket sales for the next 4 shows once Punk is back and not just Chicago

You'll know for sure when there is a sudden uptick in flaccid penis references on TV

It certainly should be embarrassing to all involved

Ushered in is lol, dude was literally cutting promos in the 70s about how many vials of decca he was doing to prep for a match

Has anyone ever cut off a chunk of hair on accident when blading

Kenny going full Capcom Captain America was lmao This face turn thing for Sammy sucks. Each week shows more and more that Sammy and Jungle Boy are not ready for that spot and the title match should be Darby vs MJF. OC is in the midst of one of the finest mid card title runs of all time in any company and I hope it doesn't end in a battle royale That whole finishing sequence for Ricky/White-O was smooth as hell

Can't wait for Sammy to win the pillars match and feud with Jericho over the title

Best at having their legs splayed on the mat in a realistic way: Bret Hart. I know you know what I'm talking about.

The pillars videos were all pretty interesting to me. Particularly the Darby one, but also MJF is way better in that format than in front of a live crowd screaming and smark baiting. Also neat to have Christian putting over Jungle Boy while still being the turtleneck heel shit head.

Most of the time, the complaints about just expecting people to know who a talent is real nitpicky bullshit. However, I have seen Aussie Open matches and still had no idea who the fuck that guy was.

Banger after banger after banger But also lol at the Saturday show already being set up to be the show for everyone with "attitude problems".

It was hardway. Every time he bleeds, he does it intentionally hardway because he's a savage.

Bad Bunny definitely should have main evented. Literally nothing was going to be as hot following that.

A lot of the GOATs in pro wrestling are nepo babies, though. In regards to Angelo Poffo, he's definitely on the Lanny side, and not even as good as Lanny was, who himself was multitudes below Randy. There's a bunch of NWA Chicago matches of his online and dude is just bleh as hell. You'd never believe that guy had one of the most charismatic sons of all time.

Starks vs White-O is gonna bang Cole vs Jericho is gonna be terrible. I can already see Jericho wanting to show he can do a Cole/Gargano match, on top of the Cole HBK drama.

I think Kenny is a fine promo. Certainly much better than the Bucks.

Has Starks even had a match on TV since beating Jericho again? Will Adam Cole be the first to not suffer from the clout vampire?

It's only a story because it's Punk. The talent pool for pro wrestlers on that level is pretty small and they all know each other. AEW/NJ talent pops up backstage at WWE shows when they're in the same area, plenty of WWE people have been backstage and doing dinners with AEW talent. The real sus part is that he was visiting "friends".
