bunnyofdoom posted:Since not in OP but are ROH wrestling in front of me, who are Queen Amanita and Red Velvet and who should I cheer? Low/mid card on the women's division. Both are good wrestlers. Red Velvet has made huge steps in improvement from when she was Barndi Rhode's protege. fez_machine fucked around with this message at 01:29 on Mar 17, 2024 |

bunnyofdoom posted:Since not in OP but are ROH wrestling in front of me, who are Queen Amanita and Red Velvet and who should I cheer? In short, they're both in roughly the same position: a lower-card wrestler in the women's division who's mostly getting experience until they're ready to move to a more notable position, which they're both now on the cusp of. Queen Amanita is from Guinea and is a relatively new hire, Red Velvet's father and uncle were both notable Columbian boxers and has been in AEW for a while now, they're both solid wrestlers. They're both also faces, unless a lot happened on ROH that I haven't heard about, so just cheer whichever one did something cool last.

I dunno which tag team wears yellow pants and their manager a blue suit but he went for cheap heat here that requires local knowledge so good for them for doing the research

(For the context, Sterling made a comment about how when he heard they were going to the capital of Canada he thought he was going to Toronto. We gave a bit of a thing about that)

Aminata also has the bittersweet story about her never getting to tell her dad she was signed to AEW as a full-time wrestler, but after he passed, she got his cell phone from her brother (as she was the oldest)... and discovered it had multiple pictures of her as a wrestler from her time in Japan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mlv81ZdZJAo

Good op, but suggest a small write up for Mikey Ruckus, the second coming of Jim Johnston.

I still had cable in 2020 and randomly changed the channels into this match: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mp8aOgTMX9k Great intro to AEW. I had remembered it was Legos though.
