Unkempt and over-caffeinated. A lot of Butch Walker and Kennesaw State athletics. Increasing amount of books and movies. Otherwise it’s like TBS in the 80s β€” all Braves and wrestling. πŸ€ΌπŸ¦‰ Letterboxd: boxd.it/a46ab Goodreads: goodreads.com/bgarrett7

I desperately need Frank, Fredi, or someone to write a book and spill on that entire 2008-2014 era. There’s just too many wtf moments and stories that need to be told.

Also love to see six consecutive headlines from Fightful with pull quotes by Chelsea Green that all came from the same podcast interview.

Sucks that Lowe and KK always get lumped into these, too. Frank had to do some real work to rebuild that disaster of a rotation in 2008 and Vazquez, Lowe, Kawakami with THK and Jair made them an absolute force. Plus Lowe still had two more serviceable years.

Kawakami was… fine? He just got screwed.

Think Upton and Profar lap the rest of the field here, which is rough bc both seemed fair and logical at the time. I think that’s what makes judging these deals with hindsight more difficult than β€œyeah he sucked” or β€œthis dumbass pissed hot twice”.

It’s gotta be Profar tho.

Fucking loved it. Whole series was great but Annihilation was easily the best.

Firing your lead writer a month before WM when tickets already aren’t moving seems less than ideal.

With the WWE/TNA relationship there is minimal benefit to TNA bc the balance of talent leans far away from them. NJPW still gets AEW main eventers to move the needle; TNA is getting NXT scraps. But ultimately talent leaving is their own fault for not being able to pay or make them stars.

How is it AEW’s fault that New Japan can’t retain talent and/or build up talent to replace them? Like Rocky said, it’s either AEW or the fed, they’re leaving either way. For most AEW just presents a higher ceiling historically and is a natural jump bc there is an existing relationship in place.

I fully support just letting Chris Sale go feral. I need that man to destroy Profar’s locker and any remaining belongings.

Tbh it could still come, just after the appeals process runs its course. Wouldn’t be a good look for them to roll him like that and then have some fluke shit happen where it gets overturned.

Ozuna getting a combined 20 games for DV and DUI while Profar is gonna be at 242 for pissing hot twice is some kinda fucked up.

It’s insane Devitt spent almost two years in NXT working guys he had essentially been wrestling for years and already had chemistry with while Starks and Mariah are left wrestling essentially NIL signees with six weeks of experience.

β€œWe’re sending you to NXT” is a deathwish now.
