1/2 of @idieyoudie.bsky.social. NJPW podcasts at @postwrestling.com. Blue Jays, science/weird fiction, scotch whisky, beer. He/him. Opinions mine, not employer's. Ⓥ "The Parker Brothers took time to think this all out. I think we should respect that."
This is the jestermaxing the kids are talking about, yes?
Terry Funk and Super Dragon homages on the same show. 🤌
Awful strike zone all game. Sorry, DR.
Dave: "...and also drew a lot of big houses in Montreal with Édouard Carpentier."
Bryan: "...Let's move on to this NXT episode..."
Seth Rollins: "Oh, so you all love it when Mistico does it!"
"Konusuke Takeshita never had the makings of a Varsity Protokadathlete."
Seeing Barnett give Claudio that "attaboy, you got a future in this biz" speech in person at WrestleDream was incredible. God-tier chutzpah.
"After that last match it looks like we have a lot of fatherless children in the building..."
Looking forward to 3+ hours of vagueskeets and not being able to tell whether they're about AEW, the Oscars, or the WBC.
Lena Kross is far from a finished product but her instincts and understanding of the role she's been booked for are sharp as hell. She's done exactly what this position calls for.
Christyan XO. She joined up w Carlie Bravo on RoH a few weeks back.

No beer tastes better than a free one.
What whisky? Mostly beer at my end but I might dip into the cabinet.
Finally a NJC match I can full-throatedly recommend. Great struggle throughout Oiwa/ZSJ and a nail-biting closing stretch.
I mean AEW is the difference maker there.
Real PS1 character select screen feels.
I'll absolutely take getting this far. Also, a nice way of easing back into things without having Games 6 & 7 constantly in your face.
Low bar, but as good of a singles as Lee's had since returning. Jackson/Newman made crowd brawling actually fun and kind of called back to all those sick bumps Jackson took in Korakuen v Oleg.
Well that'll do nicely.
Hey, he can fail to cover 1st just like the best of 'em!
Webb got the exact same spot in the 2nd.

Let's go, boys.
That's six votes for Obama, if they could!
H: "They didn't give us one word of warning!"
C: "What do you mean? They ran those TV commercials about it, and that big radio campaign."
L: "Don't forget the leaflets they dropped from the Space Shuttle, and the two weeks we all spent at area code camp."
H: "...Not a single word of warning."
This is going to whip so much ass. Terminus is always the highlight of my year on atmosphere, friends, and tradition alone but this lineup is as stacked and savage as any in the fest's history.
This lived up to the plug for it given on the Flagship last night.
Honestly can't tell if it's a "problem exists between chair and keyboard" thing, the corrosive effects of bad faith grift in the ecosystem, or the long term effects of feeling the need to have -something- critical to say about a medium it's ostensibly been your job to review for this long.
