Very important to mention that Nick Gage is wearing the exact same ripped camo shorts that he ripped during Mania weekend.

Honestly might even be the same GCW shirt too. What a guy.

i'm sad i slept on him for years and v. glad i've since seen how great his deal is. really loved his match with david starr in beyond (which was also my intro to starr as a wrestler and not just a man with very good opinions on twitter)

I went to a bleh PROGRESS show and an amazing Kaiju show yesterday. The Kaiju show was a mess in the best way, and I got to wear my 19-year old Kaiju shirt that, because they didn't ship internationally, I got a very young Bix to buy and send to England. I can die now.

I watched part of the Kernodle Tag thing CWF was having and its pretty wild to see a promotion made up of almost exclusive talent. The only names I recognized were Tank Lawson(lol) and Arik Royal(good)

Probably not much more, but they don't pretend at being big players the way MLW does

Watching you sleep.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

I don't think I care that much of MLW is just being braggadocios about how they're the big leagues. That's what wrestling promotions do, some of them just have different styles.

Now if they're messing with people's contracts or messing with other promotions or making talent choose or something, that's different.

But talent seems to come and go from MLW really regularly so I imagine no one's super locked in if they agreed to bad pay.

They have been. Brian Pillman Jr was supposed to face Liger at Wrestlecon until Court pulled him citing Brian's agreement with MLW. I'm also pretty sure that sort of stuff is why MVP walked.

I think there's also another specific reason why Brett Lauderdale dislikes MLW but don't remember it.

Ok, yeah, then that stuff is bullshit. If you're gonna claim first right or priority or something you better pay well at least. Not that I'm sure even that would justify it in the current wrestler contract climate.

Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola
