The broken gimmick still has legs but it really needs a full crowd.

As long as they limit Matt in ring and focus more on the character, it's not as easy these days for him

Everyone freak out and infer this means Uno is a goon. https://twitter.com/EvilUno/status/1366922175643607042?s=19

It's a reference to the biblical quote around "something wicked this way comes."

Sorry goons.

Edit: Uno is 100% aware of what SA is, he's just not a goon.

Kingman has been tossing me and other buds these types of links for years.

Pretty much 100% of the Japanese wrestling I've watched outside of FMW and W*NG I can honestly say is thanks to Kingman.

Kingman is basically my old school tape trader

I thought the New Breed's extent of their Transformers references was talking about drinking energon, but no. They are agents from the Decepticon High Council on Cybertron! Jimmy Valiant does not know what he's in for.

I loving love New Breed. The promos were ALWAYS this batshit insane.

crucifix dominator is a top tier move too

NXT certainly has some great parts

I hate with the fire of 1000 suns that she had to walk to the middle, face the hard cam, then execute.

Like gently caress could you not have a roaming cam catch the shot with the impact right after the walkoff?

Dumb pet peeve i know but drives me crazy.

Sweet move though

Speedball is running a twitch stream with part of the title being Contract Announcement No Click Bait.

So it's probably click bait but if it isn't he's ruled out of WWE given they announced the NXT class, if it was AEW you wouldn't drop it on a random twitch stream, and well if its MLW or ROH rip.

It's 10000000% clickbait hahaha

Almost every competitive thing I've seen with him in it on that channel where he lost ended in him throwing a huge fit and storming off set. If it's a bit, he's doing a great job of making himself look like a pathetic sore loser!

It's not a bit he's done that in hotels playing gamecube with people I know. He is really ultra-competitive.

I've mentioned the story I believe. Met him at a Dillard's in Florida where he was working selling suits in between network runs. Mentioned being Canadian and just starting in the business, spent close to an hour just giving us advice, what to watch for, how to conduct yourself in a locker room etc.

He died a couple years after (I want to say I met him in 2001) :smith:

As for lore of the stab, my life isn't that interesting. I met SeXXXy Eddy, and through him starting in the biz, I met a bunch of others guys just starting up etc...and now you happen to know a lot of them.
