I don't know what I'm more thrilled about: the fact I finally got the match card to work, or the fact that I'm about to watch Athena and Willow beat the crap out of each other lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oooh yeah. I forgot about that one. Athena was huge and worked the live crowd well at Collision. She was great to watch. And Willow is a new fav of mine. I want to see more of her and Skye Blue.

They're both hard-hitting. Especially Athena. I was looking forward to their match more than Punk/Joe last week. I just have no idea who's going to win, and I love when wrestling's unpredictable.

That match is gonna be fucking fire

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That should be the best match on the card.

I'm ready to hear Uno explain the Dark Orders side too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I can't wait for that either. Could see a heel turn, or a departure from the comedy act.

In another life Excalibur was an auctioneer.

Dude has to have an oxygen tank under the desk

He also fact checked Jericho pretty good on that Tony Schiavone reference.

Takeshita coming out to the entire Elden Ring soundtrack

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I love that Dark Order is getting TV time. Just poor them all over my body!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Also enjoying that they're getting two sets of ongoing stories after floundering for so long, the DO-Hangman one in AEW, and the Uno-Stu one in ROH

I have mixed emotions. I didn't watch AEW from the beginning but seeing serious John Silver feels wrong. It's like finding out Santa isn't real. Not saying it wasn't a decent promo or didn't make sense either.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I see what you mean. I will miss all their goofy BTE antics but I'm okay with the change. And I guess if it doesn't work they can always go back to being the DO we know and love, right?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I love the serious turn, too. Sounds like they might be recruiting again...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Lol you didn't need to beat Trent and Chucks ass. Orange would've just given you a title match.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah that's just as fun!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Pretty good show and a fun night overall. Back at it tomorrow but working early am. Time for beauty rest. See y'all for Collision

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Any time 2.0 is on the screen it's a good time

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Daddy Magic gets my nipples hard.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Lol does Trent get dibs on anyone from coming from or back from NJPW

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Oh shit, Hook dropped the chips for pasta. That's how you know he's serious.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As a Sunn O))) fan, I love Don Callis' music. My wife hates it.

I'm enjoying these matches too much to post much :D good prob to have

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

That POS is so extra, he even has those shitty pink shades in his painting with Takeshita.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I know he's good at his job, so it's only fitting that I thoroughly enjoy watching Daddy Magic get beat down by Dustin. Or anyone....

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

That was a nasty blackout Jesus

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I was sure Takeshita was going to rip Mentallo's mask off.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

A piledriver? Trent? said dirt sheets always lie.
