I probably saw you but there were a hell of a lot of LIJ shirts there. I wound up having to stand in the corner near the merch for the whole show but I had a really good time. Riddle vs Starr owned a lot

Plus Sasuke's completely insane so they'll probably re-enact the Janela/ZANDIG bump.

Dino Bravo was the old standard bearer, but ZANDIG turned the muscle gut into an art form.

Could have sworn Deonna has said in the the past she hated intergender. Wonder what made her change her mind?

seems like wwe has softened quite a bit on the matter, right? though maybe the recent sample size is only, like, candice

seems like they've gotten over a lot of their little moral panics or at least they're enforcing them very poorly. the wwe uk guys all worked joshi at king of trios. candice still has her site up where she's selling her old gear and poo poo

honestly i feel like there's enough actual legit, non-sketchy intergender stuff nowadays that inherently stigmatizing it, instead of taking it case-by-case, has become kinda silly

like, World's Cutest Tag Team vs. Young Bucks is a loving incredible match even setting aside that it's intergender. to the point where that's the match that made me a Bucks mark. and Lucha Underground's intergender stuff also does really well at making it seem like a legitimate competition and not just a guy beating the ever-loving dogshit out of a woman (and in the rare instance that it is the latter, it's because they're going somewhere with it and the dude is extremely unambiguously heeling, they're not doing it for misogyny pops).

e: I mean gently caress, even CZW is doing reasonably not-terrible with this, LuFisto in the Cage of Death kicked rear end.

I think Zandig was still booking for CZW when LuFisto did the Cage of Death deal, which is wild as hell. If it wasn't him then it was DJ Hyde, whom does not have the best track record with booking women(again pretty fuckin wild).

IIRC it was ZANDIG booking and he literally added her after the event started. Which is pretty loving wild by normal standards and par for the course by CZW standards.

#LitUp is going to be interesting since it'll be a full card of Intergender matches

But then again Drew is good about booking this and doesn't do it as stupidly as LU did and it'll probably be a way for Beyond to stand out on WM weekend
