Can Don Callis still bump or at least get chopped one (1) time by a certain ninja skeleton?
Depends on the bump I suppose but he took a little one in the Mox match at Winter is Coming.

I had a blast watching AEW Dark with Excalibur and Taz on commentary. Like legit laughs with these two. Was a good Dark episode and I'd say that I enjoyed women matches a lot, they have real nice talent.

ex and taz are loving awesome on dark. they absolutely carry it

AEW, acquire the Silent Hill franchise and give it to Abadon, cowards.

so the discord group I'm in has several times brought up the idea of an asymmetrical horror game, ala Dead by Daylight or that one Jason game, except it's four Dark regulars trying to escape someone like Abadon, Lance Archer, Mox, or basically anyone you would not want stalking you through the halls backstage when you are but a meager jobber

I really, really like the idea of a wrestling game that isn't a wrestling game, but also the thought of trying to hide in a locker while muffled theme music gets closer and closer is funny to me

Cage would be a fun 'monster', he'll let you get your poo poo in, and you can survive more than with the others... but it when enough encounters happen he will be able to end you in a second if he can so much as see you within twenty feet.

Nakazawa would be an NPC that usually messes with you with the oil, but it'll sometimes gently caress over the signed people.

Probably not unless the news stations decide to just drop all the hourly shows they do and just go for one 24/7 show each it's 1. CNN 20m 2. Fox 19m 3. CBS or something 15m 4. AEW Dynamite .4m

Tonight’s WWE NXT New Year’s Evil episode is scheduled to have a lengthy overrun on the USA Network.

TV Guide listings currently have New Year’s Evil running from 8pm until 10:08pm, giving the show an extra 8 minutes.

Getting desperate for a rating boost by using the overrun

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Not the best optics with the capitol on fire.

Jericho's last podcast was over the line to me. I don't think I can give AEW anymore money directly until he's gone or apologizes meaningfully. no judgement to anyone who does though truthfully, this is just my personal feelings on it.

Lance Archer's terror radius would be the countdown to his theme music, but it's tied to distance, with a looping riff playing faintly, then louder, and louder, with each meter of distance between the survivor and Archer counting down a number. When Archer is within lunge distance, "EVERYBODY DIES!"


Edit: I've really come around on Lance Archer since he debuted. I heard he was good in NJPW, and I liked him alright when he debuted and went against Cody, but felt he kinda underwhelmed, in a fed that also had big beefy boys like Wardlow, Butcher, Old Dustin, and others. His run lately of just turning him against someone I really want to see get beaten up has been fuckin' delightful.
