That's the issue with Mauro fans, they don't hear shit anymore because they spent years getting screamed at straight in the ears. Mauro's screams are sweeter than the sound of Beethoven and Bach.
December 14, 20204 yr comment_5934011 You've officially lost your mind, which explains a lot with some of your latest preferences of workers, I might say.

"Thatcher sucks" ignores the nuance of my posts. What I actually said was that he's good with an opponent who can work his very limited style, but outside of that, he's not very compelling. Mella is money! Holds her own in the ring, versatile character, always entertaining persona. I'd take her over random NXT/AEW women's rassler #5. Callihan needs main event WWE tattoos, baby!
December 14, 20204 yr comment_5934022 And Asuka. But we're drifting away from the awesomeness that is IMPACT Wrestling, the company that would not die.
December 15, 20204 yr comment_5934037 It really shouldn't be understated how much better Impact became when Don and Scott realized the best thing to do is stay in their lane and embrace their place as the company people may not stay at forever, but are free to do whatever wacky shit they want while they're here. If AEW is "WCW if they never sold to Turner and remained run by the Crocketts", Impact is the modern heir to Memphis and their mix of serious stuff and wacky bullshit. Like other places try to do it, but Impact is the place where they make it work better than anywhere else.

December 15, 20204 yr comment_5934057 Amazing. I agree with EL-P on something post 1990... EL-P you are 1000% correct about Mauro! His style is different and sets him apart, but that doesn't mean he's good.
December 15, 20204 yr comment_5934058 SlamWrestling.net: Mauro Ranallo is the best wrestling announcer of the year!
December 15, 20204 yr comment_5934059 I mean, I can honestly see picking Mauro over most of the people they nominated.....but Tony? Maybe it's my particular brand of nostalgia goggles since he was one of my childhood wrestling voices, but voting against Tony in 2020 is like kicking puppies.

Yeah, am I supposed to gives a fuck about the Slam Wrestling awards ? I mean yeah, we know you love Mauro Ranallo. You're not alone, plenty of people do. Some people also can't fucking stand him to the point he's a total legit turnoff. Thats' my case. 1 hour ago, sek69 said: I mean, I can honestly see picking Mauro over most of the people they nominated.....but Tony?

That, and Kevin Kelly telling the stories of the G1 alone should make him N°1, although my favourite is absolutely Tony, and this has nothing to do with childhood or anything, first time I heard Schiavone I was 21.

Nah, I've come around on Asuka. I never saw much from Pac on 205 Live or the main roster, but he's been terrific in the Dragon Gate/Indy run that followed as well as in AEW. He also works and carries himself bigger than his frame which isn't something many can do.
December 15, 20204 yr comment_5934089 Wow, that joke from two decades ago... You should book for WWE.
December 15, 20204 yr comment_5934090 In more IMPACTful news, apparently Ethan Page is basically done with the company (and pro-wrestling ?) once the contract is finished (hence him basically screwing up the team and working solo at Final Resolution). That's too bad, The North are an awesome team and Page looked like a really creative guy and really won me over in the last year and a half, he was easily one of my favourites.

So does that mean The North are done as a team? Because if that is the case, that would suck. They're excellent. Unless this is a precursor to The North showing up in AEW, which would be outstanding. FTR vs. The North is really a match that needs to happen, and from what I've read both teams want it to.

Alexander apparently has another 9 months on his contract, so either Page would need to sit out for a bit or be introduced in AEW without Alexander. Although one consequence of the working relationship could be that if they want the North they could work something out to use Alexander.
December 16, 20204 yr comment_5934107 So, we're getting Kenny Omega & Good Brothers vs Rich Swann & MCMG at Hard to Kill....solid first main event for a PPV in 2021 if you ask me!
December 16, 20204 yr comment_5934108 Yeah that was a solid angle to close the show and set up a hell of a kickoff for 2021. Interesting that they would mention the Bullet Club by name knowing how New Japan feels about Impact. I wonder if that was okayed ahead of time or if Kenny figured he'd worry about smoothing any ruffled feathers later.
December 16, 20204 yr comment_5934113 Either way, the buzz that Impact is getting right now is priceless. I was reading by numerous tweets and on Twitch that many people have already purchased Hard to Kill on PPV when they learned of the Kenny Omega & Good Brothers reunion and being in the main event

No way that Page is done with wrestling. Virtually every major promotion right now has been in contact with him, trying to sign him. He's gonna be a huge get no matter who gets him but I think AEW is the best spot for him.
