karmicknight posted:AEW contracted talent have regularly worked indie dates, the only restriction was really requested/enforced was after the breakout at a Warrior Wrestling show with AEW talent headlining. Joey Janela was one of the first guys they signed and he's still a cornerstone of GCW as well as allowed to his Spring Breaks

Spiderdrake posted:Yeah didn't have like, Tay working in JB's spot with Luchasaurus in tags or something cool? Yeah, it was also around the same time Tay was hanging out with Jurassic Express in BTE so it seems like someone was considering adding her to that act before TayJay became a wonderful thing and Tay Conti became a Friend to the Dark Order.

I have never wanted anything more than Bryan Alvarez teaming with Japanese Deathmatch Legend Dr Luther.

Deathlove posted:Do they not care, or are they just more lenient? If you have to run all your bookings through TK, who knows. They talked a lot about how people would be allowed to, but it never really got pushed before things got shut down. Curious to see what happens! I think it’s the latter as long as it didn’t conflict with AEW commitments. I remember Mox doing an indie booking and Janela had done shows before a particular show where lot of people had potentially caught covid and he was off AEW tv for a bit.

Kris Statlander had to be pulled from an episode of Dynamite because she had a prior indie booking. I remember people being pretty shocked that they let her do the indie show instead of asking her to cancel.

The Nash tweet before the 2016 election where he’s like “as an experiment I wore a Trump shirt today expecting ridicule and everyone was just super happy and excited to see it, Hillary isn’t a sure bet we’re in trouble”. Nash is hilariously galaxy brained but I think a genuinely funny and cool guy overall.

Dave (I think) would also tell stories about how every time he and Roddy talked, Roddy would insist it was either the first time or it had been many years since they last spoke, even if they had chatted multiple times that year.Seams posted:I think the amount of work you put in to this is impressive, but I still felt kind of grubby reading it tbh.

Actually, Piper cornered him in a bathroom, turned the lights off & lit a lighter in Bryan’s face & told him to tell Dave that if Dave ever wrote anything about him again, he’d burn Dave’s house down.

Piper is 100% a guy who got his brain scrambled from a combination of drug abuse, brain damage and unresolved trauma that led to him being a complete mad bastard but he was such a charming and affable guy in an industry where his mental health issues were both not out of place and in many ways actually beneficial that people gave him a pass and he profited greatly out of it. I don't know that even if he got the help he needed he'd be able to take it because so much of his life was wrapped up in being unwell for so long.

The fact that they claimed to be suspicious of the test to begin with and then the phlebotomist was convicted of taking bribes to falsify tests was the thing that made my brain click over to, "you know, maybe he really is her father."

You know how in Icarus (loving superb documentary) it is revealed that the Russians undertook these incredibly complicated procedures to secure and replace urine samples? Well that was not as impressive as the genius way the phlebotomist found to fake blood tests: they ran out onto the street, flagged a passerby down and said,"Hey yo can I draw your blood instead of this other dude's?" - Machiavellian!
