Is Johnny really using his shoot name in this? I know he can't use his WWE or LU names, but "John Hennigan" sounds like an NXT jobber.

In fact I guarantee there will be a Johnny Mundo chant. Hell maybe a Johnny Nitro chant.

Apparently LU crowds chant "Johnny Queero" (which gets turned into "Johnny Zero" in post-production) so that's probably what we'll get here

Ah, I thought it was one of those two words.

Also Johnny Zero is a way better chant because that's exactly the kind of lame insult Johnny "Imma take you to Slamtown!" Mundo would think of.

i wonder why they havent been booking any of the LU guys for the other quasi-monthly shows its not like theyre not taking other dates

Konnan is on the outs with AAA, and he was the main connection to getting their guys booked for PWG, so that's probably the main reason.

Between Joey Styles, Matt Striker, Josh Mathews and David Otunga, this year's "Worst Announcer" award race is going to be fierce.

Joey Styles and Matt Striker are the best argument in favor of WWE homogenizing its announcer style. Because when left to their own devices, they're the most insufferable smarks and that kills the product they're trying to put over.

Even when done right, the Canadian Destroyer is one of those wacky indie geek moves that doesn't make much sense in kayfabe but you just go with it. This goes straight into "who was that supposed to hurt?" territory.

using needles in deathmatches is the dumbest goddamn thing and i hate it

At least in FMW they saved their needle spots for a big, dramatic moment in the match. These idiots are just daggering themselves like 20 times a match and it loses all impact.

Gotta pace yourself and make those spots matter, kiddo!

the lucha guys shes managing shouldnt have a mouthpiece imo

like why does pentagon have a valet? why does fenix? their english isnt great but does it make any sense at all for them to have a manager

Pentagon and Fenix have gotten over as top guys in literally every promotion they've worked without anyone feeling the need to "give them a mouthpiece." The fact that MLW decided the Mexicans needed an English speaker (and stuck them with a dime store Zelina Vega to boot) kinda makes me side-eye a little.

I think he's really good. Probably still waiting for that big breakthrough performance that makes him a Made Man, but at 24 years old there's plenty of time for him.
