Weird energy tonight and very segment-heavy, but I chalk it up to readjusting to live crowds returning while trying to do a go-home show. So who the hell was Factory Guy #5 in the wig and flatcap? Is that someone we've seen/heard of? I thought Shawn Dean might have gone to the other side in the split, but that didn't look like him.

How is Stadium Stampede happening with the crowds back? Did they already tape it? Or do they let the crowd in the stands from next door? Or is it the silliest option where the Daley's Place people just have to sit in Daley's Place and watch a screen of something happening that they can't watch live even though it's next door?

I'm now picturing a scenario where 2 or 3 guys accidentally hardway during the pretape, and have to meticulously blade backstage to match their wounds in the footage so they can finish in front of the live crowd without breaking consistency.

I like the card suit battle royals, because if it was one entry at a time it's just the Royal Rumble, and I like that they're doing something else. BUT, they need to make a few changes to it: -Announce the suit groups ahead of time and list them on the screen when picked, otherwise the suit means nothing to the live crowd. -Have everyone come out at once like the one from 2019. They don't need individual entrances. -Mix up the Joker card and pick it in random order like the others. It doesn't need to come last every time.

MJeff posted:Coming out of the Lights Out match, they basically erased Thunder Rosa from the canon and pushed and presented Britt in a way that got Shida less over karmicknight posted:Specifically, the first live crowd after a pandemic on memorial day weekend, prefaced by a package quoting loving Patton, FDR and Truman and some sort of veteran charity deal organized by one of their own in-house veterans. Cody doesn't just want to be the ace, he wants everyone to love him. So when everyone doesn't, he's like "lol see, that difference of opinion is what makes AMERICA GREAT therefore since I AM AMERICA, I AM GREAT."

MJeff posted:Bro, she's wrestled one two minute match on Dynamite since the Lights Out match. Not my fault if you don't watch Elevation, "bro" - which is "canon" as you say - and she's had other obligations with other promotions. My point is more that you use a ton of hyperbole and it's not helping your points. Like not differentiating at all between the context of Kenny and Britt's angles, characters, and trajectories over the past year+, but acting like you have no idea why people could possibly be treating them so differently.

fez_machine posted:Another problem is that the Cody bubble means that if you've only been wrestling in that context, you don't have anything to fall back on in the rest of the roster. I still think it was dumb for Cody to go over QT on free TV already, even if it was a special like Blood & Guts. That should've been the endgame match after both guys' minions dispatched each other.

I want someone to edit the DoN footage so Max just keeps saying "Yo. Yo. Yo. Dustin. Dustin! Look at me! Yo. Yo. Dustin! Yo. Yo." for like a full 10 minutes.

Rampage is going to be on TNT, so if it's not moving to TBS with Dynamite, I could feasibly see them keeping the TNT belt on Rampage and introducing a new midcard belt for Dynamite. Otherwise they don't need more singles belts.

Gaz-L posted:It goes: Dynamite on TNT. Rampage starts on TNT in August. In early 2022 both shows move to TBS. Then TNT specials every 3ish months. I feel like there could also be one more mid-summer PPV just to fill the gap. It's a bit of a lull when the schedule is September/November/March/May, unless Fyter Fest or FFTF is going back to PPV. Glad they're doing big specials though. Lead Pipe Cinch posted:I feel like they do enough “winner gets a title shot” gimmicks often enough that there doesn’t need to be a physical item that exists in perpetuity.

MJeff posted:NWA has a midcard belt where if you retain it seven times, you get a world title shot, also the time limit for matches is 10 minutes. Kinda what I was getting at with that FCW medal. It was 15 minute ironmans, though that's kinda weird because there typically aren't that many falls in a 15 minute match. Either way stipulation belts are cool, titles that aren't belts are cool, and bringing in championships from other feds is cool and I hope they do more of that.

Bucks/Lucha Bros ladder match at All Out 2019 was for the AAA tag titles too. What I really like about it is that while people are talking about not enough belts and too much roster, some of them are still recognized champions like Mox. Granted it's not defended much, but when it is, it always feels special.

I wouldn't hate a Mox heel turn after not getting the job done in a couple feuds. He already sort of acts like one, he's just beating down other heels. I can pretty much already hear Eddie cutting a promo like "Maybe you weren't paying attention, we've always been bad guys."Ziggy Tzardust posted:This is a really good tron/theme and fixes the big issue I had with Page/Sky. They felt so thrown-together that I couldn't take them seriously. Now they've had a bit of time to gel and they've settled on a gimmick of "GQ Guys" there's a lot more to like about them

Chinston Wurchill posted:Shanna had such a sympathetic story with "TNA thought I was too fat" and she blew all that goodwill spectacularly. Which is kinda funny in hindsight because Impact's KO division includes more women's body types than most promotions I've seen. It's one thing they've definitely improved upon since TNA.

Lid posted:I can see Tommy End as the... evil Brodie Lee? Wait gently caress how does this work. Anyway Dark Order now would not fit Tommy End at all, but as a sadistic manipulator turning them evil... ehhh maybe not this is too close to the original Brodie Lee angle. I'm still hoping for Sting + DO. They keep teasing an alliance, and Darby could easily fly solo. They don't really seem to be pushing the Hangman thing much anymore.

It's kinda funny seeing Mark Henry put over the Bucks after he cut that promo a few years back when they refused a WWE offer. I know he didn't write it but it's still a bit of irony.
