I don't wanna call the guy a liar buuuuuuut I dunno, I get the feeling this one's not gonna stick.

I'm curious if it sticks. If it doesn't I don't think he's lying. Just that your feelings days after an injury can be different weeks or months later. And if it does stick good for him. Wrestling obviously wrecks your body so it's smart of him to recognize he doesn't want to make that trade.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

This is a bummer. Lio Rush hurt himself in the Battle Royale and says he's retiring after he heals/fulfills his contractual obligations with NJPW

the joker slot is cursed

Yeah, just, y'know.

I think there's a chance he heals up, takes some times off, feels better and decides "ahhhhhh y'know what actually I can keep going."

If he's signed for a whole year (which PWInsider had just reported about like a week or so ago) or even just till the end of '21, I doubt they have that much stuff already taped

He'd already been thinking about long-term future and wanting to focus on music when WWE fired him, if the GCW/Janela bookings hadn't happened I think he'd have been done sooner than today

As I've said before, in this business you don't really have many chances to get out while you can with health intact. If he sees an opportunity, can afford it, and it'll make him happy, I support it completely. He'd certainly have it better than most by going out with a moment like that battle royal debut and the crowd pop for it

Frankly the best place to be part of the wrestling business would be behind the scenes at AEW. That's where I'd want to go.

this translation is not correct, particularly toward the end, but i have decoded some typos and autocorrects.

i want to explain "do flux": the letters in the word 'do' are just one letter over on a keyboard from the word 'is', and the word 'flux' is something i forgot to go back and try to figure out because it was hurting

Honestly a Whataburger melt sounds a bit lean. The man does bowflex every morning. Also they were eating Reese's himself as a supper. Tarred and then fried.
