they should make the wrestlers face each other on FirePro and broadcast that, like what NASCAR has been doing.

I wonder how much stuff AEW has on tape before they run out.

Four supercards, two of which can probably be spread out over two weeks and a back catalog of Dark matches.

roman will pull into the parking lot of undisclosed venue in his 2003 toyota camry, in gear. as he takes his seatbelt off, a big yellow hummer parks immediately to his left, so close he cant open his door and he's trapped in his car!!!! he's uselessly beating on his window and shouting as braun strowman exits the hummer and leaves the parking lot.

I wasn't posting here around then but I remember the common sentiment with a lot of fans being "yeah he sucks in the ring but he's such a good talker" and none of the stories had come out about how much he loving sucked as a person yet. I think that Simon Gotch interview everyone had in the recommended slot for like 2 years came out around that time, maybe a bit afterward.

Tonight was a fine card considering the circumstances. I thought it was a good show and outside of a couple matches everyone clearly tried very hard. I especially dug the trash talk between bryan and zayn along with seth and owens. Better than wm11 and 9 so it's not the worst ever like i feared it could be

Feels like its been 3 or 4 consecutive years of "You know who'd be the best for the main roster women's title feud? An NXT chick"

I don't get how there's 2 entire main roster women's divisions that are 95% jobbers. Like how did EVERYBODY lose that much. Like even accounting for feeding Alexa Bliss and the horsewomen the math still doesn't work out.

I'm excited at the prospect of WWE buying up japanese promotions tape libraries. Would add a ton of great stuff to watch in high quality.

They wouldn't be buying the libraries, just the promotional assets, rings, copyrights, contracts, merchandise etc. All of the glory years of All Japan's tape library is owned by NTV, not AJPW.

i mean if DAZN would have made a push to license various promotional libraries as part of their package the same way many streaming services do for movies it wouldn't have been the worst or most monopolistic thing in the world.

Can you imagine Michael Cole & Corey Graves doing commentary on 9/6/95 Holy Demon Army vs Kobashi & Misawa? Maybe we get really lucky & have Maggle Cole & Sam Roberts doing 18/7/05 Kobashi vs Sasaki?

Yes, I also agree that, as a consumer, there being one big service with all the wrestling on it would be great & more cost-effective than subbing to 3 or 4 different services. But as a wrestling fan I like the existence of a variety of promotions who have different styles & presentation & are different sizes. Especially as modern WWE is already the opposite of what I want from a wrestling company. I like grimy indie wrestling featuring green as grass talent, some of my fondest memories are of watching IWAMS shows where guys like Jimmy Jacobs, CM Punk, Tyler Black, Matt Sydal, Ricochet, Chuck Taylor, Chris Hero all got regular work to just do whatever the gently caress they wanted in a small high school gym (often in front of a couple of dozen people because Ian is the worst promoter in the world) and they got to learn to be wrestlers. Talking about people 6 months, 2 years into their careers. It's not "good" per se in the way that a Tokyo Dome main event is but it's exciting & raw & there's value in that. WWE will literally never give you exciting & raw & built on promise mixed with fat guys bleeding everywhere, everything has to be polished so much. I'm not saying there's no place for that, that's fine, but I'm glad that's not all that wrestling is.

If anyone is going to be the overseer of all the wrestling content I'd really rather it not be Vince & family.

kassius ohno and vic joseph did commentary on undertaker vs hakushi from SWS for one of the later undertaker collections so that may be the chosen pair for anything involving japan and mexico, which is probably a really good duo.

im just now remembering the conversation me and massrafter were having where i was trying to convince him to buy the IWA-MS tape library :(
