They are trying to unburden themselves of the Midnight rider shtick that nobody liked. Sullivan just kidnapped Precious in a wtf moment.

When I see these old shows with what looks like literally just a front row around the ring I can't help but laugh at the folks who laugh about the small crowds at AEW shows on twitter.

Oh look the true story of what happened to the Big Gold Belt! https://twitter.com/BrianRSolomon/status/1701640226400092460 You might be thinking "Wait, didn't MRT post the true story of what happened to the belt awhile ago? Doesn't he like to refer to himself in the third person too?" You would be right. This story is at least somewhat false. Hogan did not have the real belt. He had the cast replica they replaced the original belt with. However, when he took that belt home after Bash 2000, they went back to the original belt. Scott Steiner switched the belts right before the company was sold and kept it until recently. Conrad got his hands on it for Ric Flair's last match. I'm guessing through the Bojangles Champion JZ Flair because he instantly liked my tweet saying the Solomon tweet wasn't true and he's involved with Conrad and his crew and all the belt stuff. https://twitter.com/micholaus/status/1701679069056675930

Finally saw that Chris Champion knocked out by Steiner match. Man what a gently caress up all around. This also brings me to being disappointed that the new breed broke up. They were weird and interesting.

As far as I'm aware, stuff on YouTube is fine since it's pretty freely accessible. Old school wrestling is always fun to spread around.
