that feels like something chikara might've done at one point, only with family-friendly spins on all the crimes get some stunt kid in the crowd in on it so the top heel can literally steal candy from a baby

Admiral Joeslop posted:What's the highest "generation" of wrestlers a family has gotten to? Pretty sure there's several third generation I just can't think of them. The von Erichs are third generation now, with Ross and Marshall wrestling in MLW and Lacey having had her stint in TNA. The Guerreros also count with both Chavo Jr. and Shaul (Eddie and Vicki's daughter).

The best thing that resulted from the Brawl for All was the DSOTR episode detailing it, specifically the bit where The Godfather described how his then-wife got pissed at him for losing and blamed the loss on the massive amount of pot he'd smoked before the fight

Earlier today I was thinking about Cody's run as Stardust - more specifically, I was thinking about the famously bad match he had against Dustin near the end of that run, and how they put on a classic the next time they met at Double or Nothing 2019. Is there another case in wrestling history of there being such a wide disparity in quality between two consecutive contests featuring the same competitors?
