(Competitors were supposed to retrieve the ball to win, there were buttons on the turnbuckles to raise and lower it, and...oops).

Hot drat this was incredible. It made me believe

Yeah, if I was Tony I'd seriously consider a title change next week after that.

I think what was most impressive is that Ricky flubbed a few lines and some of the content wasn't great, but the delivery was so good that it didn't matter.

Was it a bit of a dud? Swerve's had nothing but hits with me this year, so it's a shame that this time around they missed the mark with him.

The crowd reaction was weird, the reveals were underwhelming, and they seemed to miss some cues, but on the other hand...

You Sickest Fucks of the Year:

Battle of Los Angeles 2023 night 2.

Jordynne Grace bends Mike Bailey's pinky finger back until it touches the back of his hand. She then tapes it in place. Bailey wrestles most of the match with his finger in this position.

I'm sure he has some kind of trick finger due to previous dislocation but this was still uncomfortably gnarly.

I couldn't find video of this match but here's a similar one from 2018 which confirms the trick finger: https://twitter.com/GolazoDan/status/974079298939342848?t=-Scy6NZA3_NHt-F97zpdqQ&s=19

I hear the "thwack" from KO strikes in WCW vs. nWo when I watch the second one.

This may be the one case when watching on FITE was a disadvantage. It went on way too long and did way too little for a full-screen segment.

Yeah it probably won't be uploaded for a least another couple of months. The vk upload has Brookes and Haku on comms if you can't wait that long

How does Brookes not know what a walrus looks like?
