"What are you gonna do, stab me?" lmao

Over my dead body.

Yes and no. The audience is just as much to blame because we keep eating what we're fed. Why risk something original when people will show up opening weekend for "Sequel McReboot: Part Eleventy" and make you half a billion dollars? Everything is so money focused that if we want originality, we have to support it. Hollywood (and media in general) won't change until the audience does.

If I feel old, then you must feel ancient.

*old person high five

I did a rewatch recently and the iconic theme song isn't in the streaming version. Always threw off the vibe for the first few minutes after the opening.

Fun fact: The series premier of Married with Children debuted the night before my first day of kindergarten. I feel hella old.

Kinda seems to be a common problem for most of AEW's "monsters". I get it, big guy crush little guy, but competitive matches, even if they're only 3-6 minutes, would be far more interesting.

SAME.

My friend, my brother, my fellow Buckeye, you seem to have an extremely narrow view of what pro wrestling is/should be. From the packed stadiums of Wrestlemania, Wrestle Kingdom and All In, to the crowded little bars of Tokyo, Chicago and even Louisville, wrestling events in addition to wrestlers themselves are in all shapes and sizes. Some of the most fun shows I've ever been to happened in literal middle school gyms.

Put it on my tv, beam it straight into my eyeballs.

Spears was fairly regularly featured on AEW television. Most of his time spent "in catering" was actually time he spent at home with his newborn child.

Hook being the final FTW Champion is fitting. Hell of a legacy for Tazz.

Circuit City IIRC

This is Eddie "Kayfabe is dead but let's not piss on its grave" Kingston we're talking about.

Title is a little clickbait-y, so here's the full quote from the article:

“To be honest, AEW right now doesn’t really need me at this point in time. In my opinion, with what’s going on,” Eddie Kingston said. “They are doing their thing. I think having me around right now may mess up some plans, which I like doing, but also trying to be a company guy. I’m trying. You don’t want to mess up the plans too much. Especially when it’s good.

“I don’t know what’s going on with [Jon Moxley], I haven’t talked to him in three or four months. I don’t know what’s going on with him with this whole Darby (Allin) thing. [But] I knew something was up because we text each other at least once or twice a week, just funny stuff, nothing about wrestling. A funny meme or a stupid Instagram thing, just to make each other laugh. He’s doing his thing. I have nothing against what he’s doing. (I’m) not needed right now, I don’t think.”

The Mad King isn't asking for his release or anything. Not for now, at least.

Fuuuuck. I'll probably watch after Dynamite when I get off work.

I can't believe this match is gonna be on free tv...

I'm hype for this.

I've got about half a mason jar full of coins, I'll chip in.

Eddie Kingston doesn't need a lighter. His promos are fire.
