Yeah, Cade died, but I thought Murdock had retired from wrestling long ago.

He was a regular until like late-2016, then stepped away for the most part except for one match last year

I saw Kingston live once during his chikara title reign and that dude was the baddest motherfucker in the room. Glad he’s still doing this stuff.

I don't like that the Women's World Championship belt is silver, indicating it to be a secondary title. Otherwise I like the design. And I love that set.

AEW and WWE honestly both made smart calls with theirs. WWE for having the women's belts be identical to the men's but with the white straps, and AEW for doing the rose gold, making it distinct but still gold.

Pretty excited for the Dawson Brothers. Scott Dawson in WWE picked Dawson as his last name in homage to them.

Edit nevermind, spoilers. I would just use spoiler tags, but I have a latam keyboard, but windows thinks its a US keyboard and symbols are all not mapped correctly. My comment isn't worth hunting for the damned brackets.

Forky please get rid of my quote there, JRu is right.

Man, a studio set right out of the early 80s owns. A tag team championship run right out of the early 80s.... less so.

Since we're talking about an unaired title change I'll go for spoilers but the Rock'n'Rolls didn't win their first NWA World Tag Title until 1985

I'm sorry. I saw it openly posted on Instagram without any qualifiers and I didn't realize it was a big deal.

My apologies if I ruined the taped show(s) for anyone.

the wwe has 123124235346457586807 millions of dollars but their tv presentation its cheap and souless at the same time, weird.
This is fantastic, but I wish they'd have put lower thirds up for the talent because I don't know who a lot of them are.

Just a bump and a reminder that NWA PoweRRR debuts today at 6:05PM/18:05 ET today. I've found myself looking forward to it. Hoping for some sensible booking backed by decent video/lighting quality.

gently caress Corgan for being an Alex Jones guy who said SJWs are ruining society and gently caress Jim Cornette's transphobia.

With that out of the way, I'm ready to enjoy the poo poo out of this show.

If Tim Storm had started his career earlier he could have been on one of the shows that PoweRRR is based on.

Making his return for the first time in 30 years, Tim "The Perfect" Storm!

James Storm was my favorite wrestler during that one summer TNA was top-to-bottom actually good.

He fits right in here and I just love this. This is WCW Saturday Night to AEW's Nitro.

We'll know in another 1.5 hours. It could be a Thunder, though.

Edit: Eddie Kingston is a name I've heard but never really seen, he's a very very good promo. drat.
