hey mister... can u play drums while I sing and play plastic guitar???
I got kinda burnt out on wrestling and my voice was getting incredibly hoarse/gone, so I tapped out of the final session. I kinda want to get surprised by the #1 contender battle royal and the finals of the Homecoming King/Queen thing, too. I'll try to type up a more detailed thing of the first session today a little later.

I think Myers and Cardona are actually old buds of Omega from the OVW days so they might have angled to get to work with him.

I suspect something will happen with Myers and either someone else gets added or he's taken out. Weird choice to go heel/heel again instead of to Sabin or something.

"And I did it, because I was a man who had exhausted reason and thus turned to magicks"
Impact are going to need their top babyface to take the title back off Kenny after he falls from grace. Maybe that’s Cardona if they can’t lock down someone like Buddy Murphy.

Willie Mack would be great. Trey Miguel seems finally done with his miserable Sami Callihan feud and is a fantastic wrestler, he'd be cool too.

MJeff posted:

Yeah, I've liked everything I've seen from him there. He's kind of a weaselly heel right now so it is an odd match but not because he isn't any good.

Myers was always really good on the local indies before he went back to WWE and spent years being a bad joke

They just had the one tournament, like Mixed Match Challenge. I don't think it goes much further than that.

I could definitely see it being someone taking Option C. Chris Bey wouldn't be a bad pick at all.

pac should beat up hangman and ruin his championship coronation and injure him. hangman should have to forfeit the title the very next week on crutches and then pac should beat him up again. death triangle rules over the company for 4 months or however long until the next ppv where hangman gets his shot at revenge but pac beats him clean. pac holds the championship for 5 years and retires on top. i will graciously end my viewership career and you can have your thing

If reports are correct, Josh Alexander is in the "big deal fairly soon" position, so I'd expect him to use Option C.

Between WWE runs he wrestled IWGP Heavyweight Champion AJ Styles at PWG for BOLA and I was loving baffled that Curt Hawkins was considered legit enough to both work PWG for BOLA and get a match with IWGP Heavyweight Champion AJ Styles.

And then the match was hot garbage.

They were going all-in on being The Intergender Promotion but then Tessa flamed out so now they're doing this weird half-measure


Also I'm becoming more convinced that Kenny is just vacating the belt, or losing it in like a three-way without getting pinned or something

Nah you either have him lose to Page and Andrade then desperately cling to the Impact belt or have him lose the Impact and AAA belts and stop at nothing to keep the AEW belt.

There's also arguably money in a NEVER vs Impact title match. The NEVER title is basically the only belt in New Japan Kenny's never held and Jay can definitely get some heat from that.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.



Miro doing a reverse open challenge for the belt where he personally calls out new contenders is such a perfect fit for this character, he’s doing such great work right now.

November's the 25th anniversary of his debut. Obviously he also has a home in Florida
