Noory might be the host of Coast to Coast but he's no modern Art Bell. Not all of it is his fault but boy, he's no Art Bell.

As someone who followed Coast to Coast throughout the 90s, and even getting a call or two on air, then falling off after Art died and tuning in recently I was so sad to see that Noory was a Trump supporting moron.

Trump poo poo ruined conspiracy discourse. Luther’s show could be good.

I'm hoping Luther is smart enough to keep it to Art Bell out there stuff like UFOs and bigfoot and not get into "is COVID a hoax" or anything politically charged.

Lance Storm is also good buddies with Jericho and manages to avoid that poo poo, so there's still hope for the Original Kiss Stealin' Death Dealin' Kingdom of Nyein' Third Eyein' son of a gun, Doctor Luther MD.

Earth-1145 is truly the best!
A world of singing, magic frogs,
high adventure, no shitposters
Luther passes the first test of not following any Twitter accounts in the chudosphere* and following several Bigfoot accounts, so I am optimistic.


* He follows Jericho and a ton of other wrestlers who might be dicey but not any huge red flags like Wuertz or EC3 or Val Venis nor any explicitly political pundits/figures/networks.

drat. NWA truly is sinking. This lady was the heart of them. Ricky and Eddie have both said nobody bleeds for that NWA like Maureen has.

With Allysin Kay and others leaving NWA, there's virtually nobody left in their women's "division" besides Rosa and she's pretty much an AEW mainstay right now---would not shock me if she signs there after 2021. I don't see many other workers who are worth watching sticking around there, either.

Wasn't the literal idea behind NWA Powerrr that they needed to get onto a real station ASAP or the money would dry up.

NWA Powerrr was good for about 4 weeks before it kept getting more and more racist. They held onto Jim for way too long. It had great wrestlers and promos and I really enjoyed the 1hr format but everyone behind the scenes seemed like a total oval office

Just following up on this as I wanted to just follow along because Maureen is SUPER NICE. I really feel for her and I hate anybody who doesn’t have a job during today’s times.

Really, really sucks. Especially since she wanted to stay.

Cutest In The World, Six Time DDT Ironheavymetalweight champion, Two Time International Princess champion, winner of two tournaments, a Princess Tag Team champion, And a pretty good singer too!
"When I was an idol, I felt nothing every day but now that I'm a pro wrestler I'm in pain constantly!"


andy nemmeity said "actually shanna isn't islamophobic she's just worried about terrorist attacks in france!" and then doubled down and said despite being "far left" he was supportive of border controls to stop terrorism.

pretty sure most of his backpedalling is on there.

The dude who runs it reflexively defended Shanna’s Islamaphobic Twitter activity without realizing it was part of a pattern and then live tweeted himself reading White Fragility and how much he was enjoying his personal growth from the situation, so probably that.

Yeah the NWA poo poo head trio of Corgan, Lagana, and Marquez quickly soured it for me.

Marquez runs United Wrestling Network (formerly Championship Wrestling from Hollywood) and is pretty much the only indie running regularly here in California (excluding NJPW). He's got a regional TV deal and was getting most of his revenue from that pre-COVID so he's been able to run with closed set tapings.

Here's my favorite Marquez gem:
