Masada's trash where even his normal matches rely on him turning them into death matches and sticking skewers in people's heads.

Masada is deathmatch Randy Orton. I feel like he’s fundamentally not bad for a deathmatch dude but there is never anything interesting or dramatic about his matches.

It’s just the motions, bundle of sticks in the forehead, finish, to me.

yeah I can't believe Masada won't do CrossFit Fighting like all the guys on the Evolve roster.

Maybe he's moving better if he got his knee fixed, but a few years ago I saw him in a bunch of matches where he moved like modern day Greg the Hammer Valentine, and every time he bumped he'd sit on his rear end for a minute and stare like he was trying to remember where he left his car keys. No amount of skewers made it exciting.

I haven't watched the last couple of ToDs, so maybe he wasn't the shits. I keep meaning to check them out.

i like masada because the skewers are so fun and goofy. He also has that aura of, "i'm probably gonna gently caress up a move and hurt my opponent for real" that draws the eye.

He's an indie wrestler. They all look like that. Even Kenny Omega looks like, except he's talking too loud about how SICK the last episode of Dragonball Super was.

masada has the most boring matches at TOD every year and his czw title match against strickland was one of the worst matches of 2017. if he could go like 7 minutes he'd be fine but he drags everything out its awful

heres this at least this is funny

I remember MASADA because he was the only white guy in that DDT 108 man Royal Rumble.

He was ok I guess.

I still believe that they could have sold an extra 3000 tickets if they put a Park vs Rush match on the card, maybe more if it was something dumber like Park vs Wagner mask vs hair. Oh well.

Wagner got like $250k for his mask and turned that into a new career as an Instagram model, his hair would cost more than the building rental

Now if they could do a storyline another than "Beloved face wins strap and almost immediately turns heel" or "Large group runs roughshod", they'd REALLY be in business!

Mind you I say this but when they did deviate it was a somewhat uncomfortable storyline (Hero/Tornado/Candice)

The politics between WWN and MLW going forward will be something to monitor.

MLW has signed a TV deal with beIN SPORTS and that will be announced soon. And they are offering contracts of some variety - not sure of the terms exclusivity wise.

Is MLW going to make Vince lose his mind like when World of Sport was coming back?
