I think you should. I looked back on what the time was for me sometimes harshly. Unfortunately it is also tied in with my mom’s passing.

But if the worst things to happen are things that made people smile it can’t all be bad.

Yeah. A bit of the same for me. This happened in April. We came back in June. By October I had a very public yelling match threatening to quit. By December I was fired.

Lots of contributing factors. But to say this wasn’t a catalyst for a lot of things would be mistaken.

Oh I know. We always had a good working relationship. And in the end I think we trusted each other to tell the best story we could.

Others didn’t trust that and there’s a reason neither one of us are really around much anymore.

The entire idea of 2 champions who’d never been pinned for their titles down to the end of our biggest show was a great idea that was hard fought for by some and ultimately never happened due to COVID.

It is a regret I’ll always have. Cause I think that final moment would have been big.

The call that changed so much. Some agreed. Some vehemently disagreed.

I’ll stand by it forever.

Overly white wrestling fans not knowing who Travis Scott is makes me laugh.

Go back to AEW you nerds. Go on. Get.

Few people wrestle their matches as unprofessionally as Charlotte. Just does all the little things to make it harder to work with her.

A hard cap? No. But maybe a soft cap. I also think if you’re doing a cap you have to give hometown teams some sort of Bird rights to go over the cap for stars and also get rid of arbitration.

3 years at a minimum then RFA. After 5 years - FA and teams get Bird rights to go over cap to sign player

Sadly for me it was @theonlymvyoung.bsky.social

Amazing match. All time match in PGH history.

Need to give a big public thank you to @enjoywrestling.bsky.social for last night. It was a very special night for a lot of fans, but also for so many wrestlers.

They welcomed in all of us with open arms as they knew what it meant to us to be there to support our friend

Thank you for your kindness

It really better. This last bit has felt forced and dragged out.

As a fan of Toni Storm I have to say that the Toni/Mariah stuff has gotten to the same point Rhea/Liv got to.

It’s time to move on and let other women wrestle on top. We get it.

I watched First Take for the first time in a very long time because Gilbert Arenas was on. And he is a good ambassador for the current game.

The era of the ESPN talking head show is dying and the best place to get basketball information is now on the fan to go find.

My NBA media hot take is that everyone who truly loves the current game of basketball works for the league.

There’s no national media that loves the current game. And when we do get someone who does love the game like JJ they get snatched up.

I was not as high on Josh Singh as others. Unsurprisingly I loved Graham Wellington.

Quinn was high on you but others were not. I’d say you were a coin flip guy for most. Except Quinn. Shockingly I know. He was a fan.

Also a cool moment in time. I was on my way out of PWX feeling down. Quinn brought this to me as an idea to keep me around and have me involved backstage.

You’re right that it inspired UpRyse as a concept. Which I still feel was special. My love of Futures and UpRyse lead me to 880 for sure.

This a tradition to rewatch this yearly with the BHS group. It truly is a highlight of our careers.

It took me an entire day of nothing Jake to get this match. Finally he said yes and we booked it.

It was the match that convinced me I could book and that I wanted to try.

Here’s a Bluesky for you.

Every day my Facebook is just a political war between T-Ranchula and Lord Zoltan. And I love every second of it.

This is exclusive to Pittsburgh indie wrestling lore. Thank you and good night.

Yeah the match was insane. We all were also kind of miffed because everyone had to now follow it and they were just going ham out there. Lol.

Like…oh man. What we had planned might not follow that now.

Fun story we had no idea who they were. They came with RSP and Quinn booked them that night. We all were confused. They had a banger of a match we all had to follow.

Then they didnt get paid because they didn’t shake hands with the owners son and he refused to pay them.

I just got slapped in the face with the “Fort Knox” conspiracy and it took 5 seconds for it to be “Jews stole the gold and took it to Isreal”

Once again here to remind everyone that EVERY conspiracy theory ends with being antisemitic.

They aren’t fun little games.
