There's literally a line of people waiting for their chance to take their selfies at the summit. And there's frozen poo poo and piss and trash everywhere. And it costs like a hundred grand to get walked up there. Everest sucks man. This ain't no Summit of the Gods type poo poo no more.

Darby died a few months ago but on his deathbed he asked to be stuffed and to keep on wrestling Yoshihiko fashion.

Darby followed the Chronicles of Riddick copypasta like an actual workout routine and now he is the holy half dead.

Darby is going to make it to the summit ... and promptly get attacked by either Christian Cage or Swerve Strickland

Climate change is eventually going to cause literal sewage avalanches at some of the world's highest peaks, but for a while before that it's going to make the peaks very stinky first. And soon you can rest assured that Darby Allin dookie will be part of it.

What should have happened is that Darby should have been feet from the summit of Everest and then Nick Wayne turns on Darby and takes him out. Nick Wayne summits Everest and then drags Darby back down. This lack of foresight is why tiny con is the worst booker ever.

I understand that the reason it's like this is because that wrestlemania 100 art is ai generated by I love the massive amount of seats that are positioned such that they can't see the ring at all, like some being straight up behind the stage.

The sort of person that'd go to the lengths of making AI art just to fellate WWE this hard would probably happily pay 3,000+ dollars for a seat that's a block away and behind the stage.

Have literally no idea how this would help ticket sales and having virtually separate rosters for Collision was a negative if anything. https://twitter.com/TheRajGiri/status/1711160634757480909

I'm always a big fan of these ideas about Rampage. "Drop Rampage, move it to a different timeslot", etc, as though Tony owns WBD and can just like.. do that. Or break contractual obligations. My favorite one that's popped up just in the last couple days is "cancel Collision because ticket sales are bad for it"

I could see the argument that the long ROH taping hurts repeat business even though I don't really see it, but Rampage is a pretty quick fun taping.

TV Zombie posted:This reminds me of something I thought I heard...that Darby had to be told he needed to train to climb Everest. Given his somewhat reckless character, I tend to believe that he would think this and would also die of some dumbass poo poo. Some dumbass poo poo == "this is my chance to do a Coffin Drop off the top of Mt. Everest".

What's Super Calo up to? Can we get Sick Boy in as a booker? Maybe have Van Hammer teach a class, he's expressed interest.

It’s always so funny that the wwe fans seem to want the exact opposite of me with wrestling. As cool as the big stadium shows can be. Nothing beats being up close in a small venue where the wrestlers can hear you yell at them and you can be right next to a guy going through a table. The best shows I’ve ever been to are in venues that can only hold a few hundred people.

The best shows I’ve ever been to are in venues that can only hold a few hundred people. They're insecure losers who need to associate themselves with big numbers to feel like they're not actually losers And I agree with you about small shows. I went to every ROH and Shimmer show that came to town in the late 00s and had an absolute blast every time. Most Stardom shows are house shows in front of like 300 people and the in-ring product is still world class and I love the small venue vibes Elephant Ambush fucked around with this message at 15:12 on Oct 9, 2023 |

Mike Awesome put Masato Tanaka through a table right in front of us and my friend still has a chunk of the table that slid near his feet You'll never get anything like that at a big show

The best time I've ever had at wrestling was when I would regularly work shows held in a World War II-era warehouse that was converted into a punk venue. Every show felt massive because the fans were rabid and the action was as in-your-face as it gets despite there only being, like, 70 people there at most. Folks who can't appreciate the intimacy and energy of independent wrestling will never get how fun it can be. It's the secret spice of life. More recently I went to a show where one of the wrestlers accidentally flipped on the front row but no one got hurt and it ruled because a kid in that row got super into the show and started poo poo chanting every single heel and screaming at them  And one time a friend of mine and Matt Cardona got into a shouting match that lasted so long security had to separate them to make Cardona go to the ring. It was so fun.

I went to an ECW show at the Alario Center in Westwego, Louisiana back in 99. It was me, my brother and my dad. At one point Rhino and Tommy Dreamer were fighting in the aisle next to us and Dreamer his Rhino with a soda cup that flies up into the air and lands right on me. I bought a cactus jack tshirt and got it signed by new jack. Show ruled.

Brodie Lee once booted a guy over the barricade and he flopped down and wiped out my mom and chair she was sitting on. Her purse somehow went flying under the ring and Brodie Lee helped her up, grabbed her purse, and then started wailing on the guy again. A couple of months ago my wife was part of a human tunnel during a spot where one wrestler ran through the tunnel before dropkicking the other one, it was great, too.

He trained the Briscoes, of all people. And yeah, indie wrestling shows are great. ROH shows in Manassas were incredibly fun and also the only time I ever saw a fan try to jump the guardrail and attack a heel. That crowd really hated Jimmy Jacobs.
