Some bookers are so dumb it's hard to feel bad when they're screwed over. Do I even want to know what Low Ki's kanji tat actually means?

I think I read somewhere that they're a non-profit or something. But I probably didn't, that would be ridiculous.

What I do remember from reading about them is that they're (ostensibly) community oriented and really try to make it a casual event for the area to come to, hence the "circus" aspect

Unfortunately I missed some sort of one-off "Smark Week" event here in Denver. Chuck T and Arik Cannon were on the card and I guess local comedians were doing live commentary, which sounds possibly dire.

According this here NPR story the new YouTube ad algorithms are causing havoc everywhere bc advertisers are demanding more control over what their ads run over (which they justify by saying they don't want ads run over bombing footage or PewDiePie or whatever). It's a little bit funny that the indies actually found a way around WWE's persistent inability to get quality advertisers and are now being held to the WWE standard. Well most of them are, at least. Rov's absolutely right that any fed with intergender matches is going to get flagged with a VAW tag and no amount of sperg protest abt fake sports will avoid that kiss of death

If he were called "Austin Law" that... would be a much less goony name. Dude looks like Baron Corbin turned back 15 years and given 3x the gas

iirc it was as simple as them making a big deal about his sendoff to NXT before he flunked the physical, but that might not be the whole story. Guys like Callihan have washed out of NXT and been welcomed back.

Iirc it wa something like Colt reached out to Punk for someone else in the business which is not something you do? Or gave them Punk's contact info? Something like that was the story.

I started watching EVOLVE shows and while the wrestling is typically good, I'm reminded of why I lean into other promotions' more ludicrous / comedic aspects. EVOLVE is played so straight, but so few of the workers can act, and that combined with the low turnouts sucks up all the air in the room - it's just as ridiculous as WWE but WWE plays out in arenas and so there's a hyperreal circus aspect that EVOLVE neither elicits nor tries to elicit. It's like watching community theater, with all the earnest awkwardness that implies. Also I think someone needs to explain Ethan Page to me. As promos go he seems like the best one on EVOLVE by a mile but his character seems like a weird post-Kevin Steen creature, the kind of character that gets heel heat but knows he gets heel heat and so tries to be a cool heel and it's all messy? I've got friends on Twitter who won't use his name cuz his fans mob people, which seems like the natural endpoint of the Cool Heel phenomenon. I haven't actually seen him wrestle a match yet but he did a pretty convincing bicycle kick whiff during a segment.

I just assumed every wrestler does (as does every one-hit wonder rap act of the '00s) but I've never heard of anyone else that folks on my TL actively avoid, I've been told he has enthusiastic boosters that make up the difference. Maybe he just cares more than most do.

UltimoDragonQuest posted:WWE's role was using indie guys as marketable stars and emphasizing their history. NXT may be a fake indie they want to claim as the most important step in a guy's career, but everyone knows where guys like Kevin and Sami came from. So wait are you saying NXT moved the needle or not

Are they the NJPW-affiliated fed or the WWE-affiliated fed? Either way you'd think they'd have a hot enough product not to need, as a draw, a guy who carried TNA's brand into the future.
