LORD OF BOOTY posted:It's "Johnny Puto," not "Johnny Queero." They turn "puto" into "zero" because, from what I gather, "puto" is an incredibly offensive word in Spanish. Puto (as well as I understand It) is basically not just gay but gay male prostitute. It's offensive but also fairly commonly used in Mexican slang so it translates directly a little worse than it actually is. But I can understand why on a show where one of the tenets is equality they don't want someone translating and being like "and then the crowd called the heel a homophobic slur for 20 minutes." As I heard one fan say at the last tapings "we gotta be sensitive to our alternative lifestyle brothers. Those guys working the corners down in TJ, they don't want to be called a Mundo, that's just offensive." Vampiro actually got on the mic before one of the tapings about mid-season three and asked that the crowd stop using "Johnny Puto" (while agreeing with us that he is, in fact, a puto) because those chants aren't going to make it to air and so they don't help. So now he is "Johnny Culo"' (Johnny rear end). I wouldn't be surprised if they start backfilling Johnny Culo into early episodes that they haven't finished editing yet instead of Johnny Zero. It's funny because I think the crowd literally only ever chanted Johnny Zero once in the history of the promotion, when he was down 1-0 in the All Night Long match against Puma.

If Cody is any indication, Ryback's gonna have as many bookings on demand as he wants for a good long time. So long as he doesn't demand STOOOPID money.

NotQuiteQuentin posted:last night's show was alright. the storylines were strong and gabe's doing a good job of weaving thatcher's angle in with catch point and catch point vs galloway's team vs gargano/page. the matches just, by large, didn't match up. i'm usually one of the most vocal gabe detractors with how big of a mess 2013-2015 was in evolve/death of dgusa, but for right now, he's been on a streak of being one of the better bookers in the us. I haven't seen it yet but putting Cody with ZSJ seems a odd choice since ZSJ is such a weird style to begin with.

Mil Mesias, that's interesting. Is what he's using for independent bookings now?

At one of the LU taping weekends early in the year, there was a guy who was probably a PWG crossover patiently trying to explain to one of the LU regulars (who speaks basically no english) that he should heckle Justin. They were communicating in like broken spanglish and pantomime. I don't think he ever fully understood it, but before every match that Justin refereed that weekend, the LU regular would yell "JOOOOO SAAAACCCCKKKK JUSTINEEEEEEE" and then be absolutely delighted with the concept and check with the other guy that he was doing it right. It cracked me the hell up. Heckling Justin Borden, a pastime that can cross language and cultural boundaries.

Marty does have a t-shirt! People like Knox too, I've seen a few Knox shirts here and there, but yeah Marty Elias is the Knox of LU. Marty is pretty cool, got fired from WWE for wearing KISS shirts backstage and now he wears one before every show and often fires custom guitar picks into the crowd before matches. He's got a great range with flicking those things, I've seen him get them up into the balcony. I caught one of the Ultima Lucha Tres ones. He's also really good at the little things as a ref -- he checks the ropes and the ring mats in between matches and catches a lot of problems, I've seen him stop potential issues with small debris in the ring, he's always in control of things if someone is injured or maybe injured, etc. Knox is obviously great at all that as well. There's room for love for both of them.

Germansimp posted:Here's a video of the spot where he was injured: Oh that sucks. It looks like they were supposed to come off the rope walk at the same time so Fenix would get like kicked out of the air with little real impact, but he slipped off the rope at the worst time and got legit kicked/leg dropped in the shoulder instead. From the look of it, that's a dislocation at best.

Mob posted:LU gets after people who advertise using their trademarked names, they got mad about the Pentagon Dark name being used to advertise a show with Pentagon Jr The showrunner said on an interview this week that they want to start setting up licenses for the talent to be able to use their LU gimmicks at other indies. Which would make sense, that way they can protect their IP, and still keep the workers happy, and get free advertising. That's why I was curious how AAW were billing Cuerno, I thought it was probably too early for those agreements to be in place yet, but it was possible.
