Just dropped a new episode covering this week's Dynamite, GCW's Run Rickey Run, and previewing AAA Rey de Reyes. We give out the rudo move and such good poo poo of the week awards. Steve may be on the MDK gang's hit list. https://rudospodcast.co/episode-32-aew-gcw-aaa-updates/

I know everyone is freaking out about it and preparing to float OTT out to the Isle of Wight or put it in whatever Eastern European country the Bertie Bowl ended up in. That way at least they won’t have lied to Moxley about it being a stadium show.

I have no idea where else to put this, but I'm reading an old 1991 WO newsletter and apparently Gangrel had a successful run in All Japan as part of a tag team called The Blackhearts, and they legit knocked out Mighty Inoue with a Veg-o-matic (the old Midnight Express finisher). Edit: also, there's a really gross rape apology letter in the same article regarding Art Barr. Punch McLightning fucked around with this message at 04:25 on Feb 22, 2020 |

Nyla Rose’s appearance on Talk is Jericho was very good and interesting to hear her stories, even with Jericho having her walk him through Trans People 101 and him asking some inappropriate questions before realizing they were inappropriate.

By that point Barr had pled out months earlier and it was explicitly a forcible rape case, so I'm curious but also dreading this.

The guy who wrote that letter sucks. However this letter cracked me up. quote:I completely agree with and support your position concerning the angles centering on Sgt. Slaughter. What the WWF is doing, in my opinion, borders on being obscene. My union local president even decried the angles. In the past, war profiteers were subject to hanging. Figuratively, Vince McMahon has already thrown out the rope.

I tracked it down in the 3/4/91 issue and yeah, it's pretty bad. Dude straight up says it isn't in bad taste to portray Barr as a hero to children. It honestly reads like something a shithead on Reddit would write. (just so everyone is clear, Dave didn't write it, a reader sent this in)

The report helps but this is also a pretty normal bounce after the drop from the poor earnings report. They were highlighted recently in a few different places as a good buy because they're a stable company even if they had a bad report. Dave helped but is also patting himself on the back a bit too hard.

davidbix posted:So in a way, y'all undersold how bad and weird it is, because half the letter is explicitly "we don't know where on the rape spectrum his crime fell" even though it was explicitly reported as "he forced physically forced a women who wasn't consenting" and he copped a plea. Something more obscure makes the letter weirder, though: It's written by Dore DeQuattro, the club musician from Queens who would form THE COMMITTEE TO CLEAN UP WRESTLING in the wake of Titangate a year later. It was the kind of rambling that I couldn’t summarize without just posting the whole letter, but I also thought that not posting it would be the best thing because of how gross it is. I found his music stuff but nothing came up early on his search results when I added wrestling to it. It looks like the book Chokehold talks about that committee, but it’s literally the only search result when you look for it.

He actually was in WCW for a bit, but public pushback due to his child friendly role and his rape, plus Ole Anderson and others thinking he was too young, led to his being let go early.
