I thought she said “neural massage” and it was some horrific early-mid century medical treatment or something but nope! Now I know all about a whole other thing instead.

Tony knows the potential because he sees how the man destroyed Gresham's brain with one tweet but just isn't sure how to harness it.

Man ive missed being in the thread for a bit, but another fun dynamite. TK is really working hard to provide a really good set of wrasslin week in and out and I appreciate it.

I love 2024 hangman with the big bushy stache. My forever champ is still a badass, and they continue to give him hilarious chyrons (thats a great production gimmick).

Cope is def settling in and he's still very good and fun. I really appreciate that NJPW dudes show up so often and get custom graphics.

I guess Samoa Joe is not into adding the title image to his entrance screens? Or has that all shifted to the overlay 3d belts before title matches?

Good to be All Elite gang.

I really like Ogogo, it was cool seeing him at the All In preshow. I hope he can be ring-ready again soon. I went back and looked at old stuff he was in and while the Cody promos were bad I think he has a really cool gimmick overall. Put him in the Copen or something

Cody vs Ogogo was peak Codyverse since Ogogo was cutting promos about everything lovely and unfair in America, Cody was going "Nah it's America and it's great actually", then Cody won and threw Ogogo into the Negative Zone forever

I’m convinced half of her gimmick is just trying to get people to corpse. Renee nearly broke when she shouted “everything’s gone TITS UP” hence “chin up, tits out”. Throwing off her shoes in a rage became deliberately throwing them at Renee/others. Etc.

I wonder what the deal is with him. I think he had more eye surgeries at some point that put him on the shelf but is he like totally good to go now? I wonder why he hasn’t done any indie stuff in Europe/the UK (I know the UK scene was mostly murdered). AEW folks still do indie stuff from time to time, and it’d be good for him to get reps in if he’s ever actually going to come back to AEW.

Is he like a big celebrity in the UK? Maybe it’s just a matter of having a UK person for All In season to do promotion over there or something.

Weird case with him for sure.

I don’t think mic position matters. Hook can be good in some of his promo packages but his delivery is so weird and wooden at times.

Not sticking his tongue into his lower lip like a baseball player about to spray a gigantic chewing tobacco spit may have helped that segment, I’m not sure.

he comes across okay in pre-tapes but has never really gotten his on-the-spot stuff to where it needs to be
