I just realized that wrestlers still committing to y2k era nu-metal style for their wrestling characters are basically the same gimmick as Disco Inferno in the 90s.

really love how many longform stories tomorrow's matchups have. Jake and Mox going back years with the IWGP belt scuffles + their initial AEW championship match feeling like Mox could actually lose, Britt never being able to beat Nyla before. Both matches being sold as do or die scenarios with champions who have to push an unstoppable force away from them. Really digging how Jake comes off in the Road To video as a stoic, quiet guy who is just going to calmly walk in and dismantle somebody.


Given how heavy they're getting into this one I can see Lance finally getting a big win here so he can possibly do Japan stuff while giving Mox time off for a bit. Time feels right for something like this to happen, they have a shitload of talent to cycle in.

The faces he makes while posting are inexcusable! When he writes a post his face is like a troll double checking bones to see if there's any meat left! When I post I look like a peacock softly kissing a rose! Didn't his parents provide him with a posting mirror to practice forums faces growing up?


"To go out into the ring after 22 years of being out of it and slam that promo down Cody [Rhodes’] throat. I remember looking in his eyes and he’s like, ‘Where am I?’ Toss the mic over my back and he catches it and he’s like, ‘What the hell did that mean?’ And to feel the love of all those people man because it was loud. It was loud and it let me know how much they loved me and it inspired me to stay with AEW and thanks to Tony Khan, when I originally signed with them, it was for a ten week deal. At eight weeks, guy comes along with some papers, ‘You need to sign these.’ I’m like, ‘What for?’ ‘Well it’s your contract.’ ‘Dude, I’ve only got two weeks left.’ ‘No, you got another year.’ ‘What?’ And then just a few weeks ago, I buzzed Tony, I said, ‘Hey, I’ve got four weeks left. What do you want me to do? I need a notice so I can start setting up my stuff’ and he says, ‘We need to sign another piece of paper’ and I signed again and then after I signed it, I found out that it wasn’t for a year, it was for more than a year. It was for two years. He’s such a wonderful man and he gave me my love for wrestling back. It’s great to be a part of it so for me, I’ve taken on that job — not a job, a pleasure, to keep my eyes open and see people that are struggling and go to them and try to help them."

You should read the contract before you sign it, imo.
e: another excerpt from the Jake the Snake podcast

quote:

A year or two from now, if maybe J.R. doesn’t want to do it as often, I can be there. I can be the guy they hand it off to. I can be the guy when J.R., he wants to go to a football game, ‘Well Jake can take it this time.’

Sounds good!

I think Archer kind of needs this win, he's really great and Jake is a cool element to his act, he's also as far as I remember pretty over in Japan and it would be cool to see him do a few more matches there.

also the guillotine's are never coming out but it would be funny if they did and Tony's execution got a higher TV rating than Vince's. It'd probably lose in viewers but win in the key demo.

The blood barely even squirted out of Tony's neck hole. They need to realize this production looks amateurish if they want to ever actually catch up with the big boys

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.
Luther v Omega is going to happen

Cutler chat from last page -

Add Cutler to the long list of things AEW did that I thought was bad at first but eventually it came around to being good. Cutler is such a vet and paid hella dues in the indies and now he's a goofy young boy. That didn't sit right at first but drat he's just so loving good at it.

Same thing with Doc Gallows. Hated his BTE persona but now it's good.

Ehh, I'm not that surprised. Honestly that's one of those things where it's probably worth sending off an email or tweeting or whatever. The salvation army is a scam and wrestlers are easy to scam. I doubt they'll cancel this but maybe it becomes the one time they work with them if people complain.
