i got my hair caught in the power door of a minivan and it was the second msot distressing 18 seconds of my life and convinced me to cut my hair afterwards

the most distressing was during wrestlecon i was trying to take the elevator to my hotel room and magnum ta and his people were gonna use the elevator and he had a lot of merch and stuff that was taking up a lot of space, i tried to get out to be polite and give them more room but this other older guy told me no no you're fine so i stayed, then it was more people and giant cases of merch and for the rest of the elevator ride i realised i was basically nose to throat chest to chest with barry windham

Cameron was part of when I was last heavily invested in WWE. She was not good then.

I think AEW are aware that the show can benefit from showcasing someone for a short time. She was going to come back:the big gay brunch and was training for it, she wants to do her best and I think the enthusiasm will have a few fun watchable matches.

Like she won't be great, but she'll get to show what she can do when she's doing it her way, a grand scale showcase of herself.

Cage is a fine talker, he's not going to cut a top-tier promo but the few things he did on LU were perfectly fine.

Correct. Dave theorizes AEW's drop in older viewers might be baseball but it might just be the weaker lead in. AEW lost the demo in men to baseball but won in women. (Both had roughly the same overall viewers.)

It's simpler than that. They put two title matches in back to back segments and both of those gained a ton of viewers. People like title matches!

Hmm. We've got our biggest stars all involved in the main story of the fed in a tag title match. After that weve got the best promo of the year and a crazy brawl with our champion. What can we use to make sure we keep the viewers and energy high between these two peaks?

He doesn't stop cutting the promo at any point of the match. He leaves cutting the promo. Nobody notices because they're distracted by how very pretty Angelico's eyelashes are

that's part of why I loved the SCU / Private Party / Santana and Ortiz match. Yeah, as a narrative it was probably Santana and Ortiz who needed to stand tall, but you could have made a case for any of them.
