So I read the story of Titus o Neil getting suspended for touching Vince’s arm and I got to thinking about who got pushed and how kofi was treated - is there enough evidence out there to say that Vince is a closeted racist?

watching a compilation of fan run ins today got me thinking, if somebody runs in the ring (be they mentally ill or not) and a wrestler injures them - does the wrestler open themself up to legal action or is it self defense ?

When the NWO formed Scott hall looks like he kicks the face off a fan

I think the tribalism we see with aew and nxt would have been worse with a rabid ecw fanbase and sites like YouTube would have probably gotten the word out easier - that said an at-the-time Shane Douglas Twitter would have been cringe

What is the point of dark/elevation?

It costs money to make, it features a load of nothing matches and the YT views pale in comparison to TV - All it seems to be is squash matches like a HEAT or JAKKED back in the day

i understand it allows talent to get experience but to me I just don't see the point when they work outside of AEW

What are my legal options to watch AEW in Finland?

I don't think they've sold the local rights to anyone, so they're probably same as any other [generic EU country].

Is the Fite.tv app an option? I just AEW+ and that means I can watch the Dynamite and Rampage shows the next day in good quality

I would love to hear some experiences with betting on wrestling - if you follow this as closely as I imagine we mostly do it seems like a daily easy thing to win at surely? That said I remember a guy betting his home on an undertaker WM match the year he lost to lesner

I have a question and it’s probably a dumb one - AEW has a booted roster of signed people they pay but don’t wrestle but dark and elevations are full of what is clearly jobber matches with no-namers who aren’t signed

Why not book dark and elevation with these people - bring more eyes to the web shows, they can be as long as they like as it’s online and everybody is used


Sure there’s an obvious reason I am missing
