Listening to John and Wai, and they brought up something amazing: Borash was going to host the new flagship program of Live Audio Wrestling for Anthem. A little bit of extra karma for them.

Was Shera anywhere near that jacked on Impact as he is his av? He looks like he went on the Jinder diet.

Not that I recall. He was in decent shape on that debut where he made a bunch of random dudes (I remember Aiden O'Shea and... I think Kennedy was in it?) suddenly do the Shera Shake/Shuffle but I don't remember him being ultra ripped or anything.

I'm looking over the roster now, which is probably way out of date and its not a terrible lineup.

The OVE dudes, despite having the most boring barbed wire match(probably sandbagged because the money was poo poo) are really dang good.
Dezmond Xavier has been well received at PWG
Eddie Edwards, when he's with an opponent that'll offset his Do Every Move I Know mode is a still a main event.
Ishimori ain't nothing to gently caress with, either.

I'm still not watching this poo poo because all the above mentioned people do bigger matches for other companies.

On the other hand he's probably been wrestling half as long as Jinder, and a whole lot less regularly and against much worse opponents. Plus he was trained by Al Snow.

What I'm saying is that there's still a chance, however slim, he could become okay with the right training, but Jinder never will.

Eddie Edwards is a better wrestler and Allie is similarly skilled but the post-Lagana booking has done a real number on her popularity. But yeah Rosemary through all the BS still stands out as a star.

She well liked in the industry and I've haven't heard anything bad about her ever. Earned real brownie points with people WWE who didn't particularly know her for her professionalism in how she handled the Sexy Star situation too. Also, she has natural sympathy coming off that still.

Watching you sleep.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

I haven't watched regularly in awhile. Edwards and Johnny Whatever obviously. OVE and LAX/EYFBO seem good, although not necessarily great. I like most of the X Division but there doesn't seem to be much focus to it. Dezmond Xavier, Trevor Lee, Andrew Everett, Caleb Konley, Sydal, Petey, Dutt, Ishimori. Rosemary, Allie. I haven't actually seen Kiera Hogan in Impact but I thought she had potential in other stuff I saw with her. Moose, Braxton Sutter, and Eli Drake are ok but like, never struck me as anything beyond midcard fodder.

I don't think I recognize anyone else on the roster.

Kiera Hogan finally debuts on tonight's show actually. WWE really missed on her. Promising wrestler with a star look.
