Posted June 1, 20232 yr comment_6005173 Bandido has won a lifetime stan in me with that tribute to Chaupulín
June 1, 20232 yr Author comment_6005176 Punk's announcement coming from a non-blinking Tony Khan announcement and nothing else happening was kinda underwhelming. Punk got a more positive reaction than I expected, there were boos but the cheers were way bigger.
June 1, 20232 yr Author comment_6005178 I can see no one else is watching but I'll end the multi posts by saying Callis' heat is something that's not easy to get, Tony better take full advantage of it.

Might like it even more than Chavo. Swerve having actual good wrestlers beside him was necessary. The Embassy looks great, they needed someone with that charisma to get them over.
June 1, 20232 yr comment_6005181 Also, pairing Cole, who came back from a potential career ending injury, with known clout vampire Jericho for his first program was a death sentence. That mixed tag should end the fucking feud.
June 1, 20232 yr comment_6005182 I can only imagine that at some point they're gonna try to set up an MJF vs Adam Cole title program for All Out.
June 1, 20232 yr comment_6005185 So they mentioned Kenny left the country and then during Don's promo the announcers mentioned he's not in Canada, which to me seemed like they were planting a seed that Kenny's bringing in Ibushi.
June 1, 20232 yr comment_6005186 Don Callis is great. Crazy heat! The sit-down interview with JR that they put on their YouTube was brilliant and it's ridiculous that they only ever showed 30 seconds of it on the Double or Nothing Buy-In. Kenny bringing in Ibushi would be brilliant. There's probably a better chance that it's going to be Okada, which whilst not quite as cool, would still be cool.
June 1, 20232 yr comment_6005187 Who would have thought the biggest heat getters in 2023 are Don Callis and Dominik? Crazy times. It's also no coincidence that they are both irredeemable shitbag heels in a time where so many heels try to be cool.
June 1, 20232 yr comment_6005189 I'm really curious what sort of Anti-Elite unit Callis is building. Could be fun.

After Don's promo it seemed to me Okada will be the first to show up. Would be cool if both him and Ibushi end up in the FD card. Kenny did say in his off camera promo that he had a "couple" of friends outside the company.
June 1, 20232 yr comment_6005205 I don't even like Don Callis but the heat he got was ridiculous. Now I want him to recruit Punk and let both of them go hunt the Elite together to nuclear levels of heat
June 1, 20232 yr comment_6005208 Dynamite got a biiiiiiig bump in the ratings. The card was nice, the divisions were shaken up, CM Punk is approaching. Let's go.
June 2, 20232 yr comment_6005215 The reaction the Punk announcement got seemed to indicate to me that (other than Chicago) the best thing for them to do is make him the top heel immediately..
June 2, 20232 yr comment_6005219 Meltz and Chico shitting on Bandido for his tribute gear cuz he "didn't look like a star" is peak boomer stuff lol
June 2, 20232 yr comment_6005222 Well, he didn't look like a star. He looked like a joke - apt, I know, because he was honoring a spoof character from 50 years ago. Don't have to be a "boomer" to think he looked jobber-ific. And if you didn't know who he was "honouring", he just looked stupid, to boot. And even when one found out who he was meant to be...he still looked stupid.
June 2, 20232 yr comment_6005224 Adam Page wore butterfly pants. Every one of these companies needs a menswear expert on staff.
June 2, 20232 yr comment_6005229 I don't think the ones questioning dressing like a character from a show that ended over 40 years ago are the boomers here.
June 2, 20232 yr comment_6005230 Chapolin fucking rocks get outta here uncultured bubbas Broke: Adam Cole as Master Chief Woke: Kenny Omega as Sephiroth Bespoke: Bandido as Chapulin.
June 2, 20232 yr Author comment_6005231 lmao, putting any real thought on how Bandido looked for someone that doesn't know Chespirito is like the concern trolling people made when Kenny "gave too much offense" to Alan Angels.

No, LMAO. How is "this cunt looks stupid, regardless of who he's meant to be", concern trolling? I mean, I'm not concerned and I'm not trolling. @The Thread Killer First issue's coverstory: "Why Roman Reigns MUST Dress As Inspector Clouseau at Summerslam!"
June 3, 20232 yr comment_6005249 Lucha dudes dress up in goofy shit all the time. It never hurt Rey wearing some real stupid looking gear for special events over the years.
