I’ve known him for over ten years from a video game community here. Used to go to the big NJPW shows with him. Didn’t have to follow the product too closely because he’d catch me up on everything. Wonderful guy with a beautiful family.

He’s responsible for some very weird wrestling experiences in my life and some people I’ve met.

Kevin Kelly is legitimately the worst commentator working today, even worse than CaMauro. I'm so happy my irrational hatred can smoothly transition into a rational one.

Can we do a thing where if we post a really long tweet in a language that isn't english we at least post a little context as to what's going on in it

I want to be able to follow some of these interesting looking pics but dang like why does that smooth looking guy have dark ironman in a headlock

Tanahashi is a big Kamen Rider fan and being the Ace of the Universe he can do things like go on set and wrestler robot bad guys okay!

The NJPW English Announce Team is the best commentary team in pro-wrestling today, though the AEW Team is also very good.

Becky is the only person seriously trying to make this feud with Shayna work.

Hold the gently caress up. Did Shayna bite the back of Becky’s head? Why?

Shayna is a legit grappler. She coulda crippled Becky is a way they could easily pop back in backstage. The gently caress she need to bite people for?

If AEW replaces JR with Taz permanently, they’ll have the better team.

I could see this, Rocky improves everything he's in. Roppongi Vice beating the Bucks at WK11 is what got me to stick with the rest of the show, and wrestling in general.

That's basic heel psychology, though. (In a match more than an angle, but still.)

How dare Ted DiBiase use the loaded glove! He's the best technician in the business, he doesn't need to do that!

How dare Don Frye use basic cheating heel tactics! He's a shooter, he doesn't need to do that!

Someone who the fans *know* doesn't need to do dastardly poo poo still doing dastardly poo poo? That gets heat. Not the same kind of heat that someone who the fans know *does* need to do dastardly poo poo doing it would get, but it's still effective.

(I'm not defending the biting angle as much as defending the psychology of a shooter and/or great technician type doing something unruly etc.)
