Im not even sure that the number of times I've applied sunscreen indoors is even remotely close to the number of times I've applied it while already outdoors.

He has a regular account here, he just hasn't used it since November
They may as well work at Auntie Anne's with how good they are at it.
I trusted this all to be good, and they've delivered. Were there sections that felt off or weren't hitting the way id like? Sure. But they were the vegetables before the desert.
He did it at the Dynamite I went to, but not the Collision.
He often does that in places he's running for the first time.
Which, let me be clear, doesnt mean the ad on WWE programming wasnt hitting the right audience. It was. Its just not always a 1:1 thing.
You'd think, but during election season, I was seeing ads during Dynamite for a Trump themed big mouth Billy Bass. That's not knowing your audience at all.
Foley's ear is the only reason either of those spots got a reaction out of me.
That cage hanging above the ring is huge. I dont know why I didnt notice it until the moment the main card started.
Yes. He's been doing it since 2022
There's obviously ECW that's being ignored, but on top of that you have an incredible era of All Japan happening, too. Just looking at 2 companies doesnt do the era full justice
Golden Era still bleeds into the territory era, at least. The Monday Night Wars era is a slightly better description for the mid to late 90s than simply the Attitude Era, since it includes WCW as well as WWE, but I feel we need a better label. It doesnt account for the rest of wrestling at the time.
Then on the other team you got Gabe Kidd who just destroyed his knee so hard he had to pull from the g1.
AAA has been pulling this move forever. Its no less dumb than the million other times they've done it, but its always been dumb.
I wouldn't expect that out of Ryback. Its not always 100% the case every time or anything, but usually the roided up guys like him are the first to body shame. Did he make some kind of public appearance lately where he wasnt in the same body as he was in 2014?
Yeah, thats exactly it. Mr Iguana having puppet fights is not a problem. Its a fun idea to lean into and they should do it all they want. The problem is that Balor shouldn't be the guy doing it.
On the one hand, I am a firm believer that wrestling needs more puppets. On the other, which character gets a puppet should be chosen by personality, not because it would be a fun puppet to make.
#ForbiddenDoor LIVE on PPV, 1PM ET/10am PT Sunday, 8/24 AEW World Championship @hangmanpage.bsky.social vs MJF MJF's attempts to goad Hangman into just giving him an opportunity have backfired! MJF will execute his contract for an AEW World Title shot at the O2 in London LIVE on PPV!
Im so glad we're at a point where we can admit that most of the people calling Collision better than Dynamite at the time were full of shit without having people at our throats. It was watchable, but the pacing sucked ass.
Whenever Luchasaurus finally returns, he needs to adopt this move. He already does cazadora-based offense and already has a chokeslam. Combining them makes perfect sense.
Have a spot where one is like "oh shit, I forgot a new mask" and an eliminated guy just gives him his.
Bluesky doomsayers are the same type of people as AEW doomsayers. Its not the version of the thing that they've always known, so they look at every possible metric to measure its success by and leap at any of them that are on a downward trend like the end of the world.
He should be considering retiring if he's having strokes, not rushing to return
If and when Luchasaurus ever returns, I do wonder if he rejoins Nick and Kip. Technically Kip joined after he got sick, but i think there's a chance he'd still look at them as his faction mates, especially after they turned on Christian before he could.
Let's hope it does.
I think Bruce Wayne would fund a campaign for Jim Gordon to run for president as a third party candidate.
Ive always discounted wrestling media as legitimate media, but theyre getting pretty close in regards to being too cowardly to call shit out for fear of losing access.
I'd ads Toni Storm to the list as well. She's arguably the best character in all of wrestling these days and she never would have gotten the chance to do that in WWE.
I dont think so. Its intentional and not a botch, and I dont see some way to remix it into more jokes.
I thought they were weird matches to have out of nowhere, but i should have suspected that there was something going on there.
Which is an odd place to draw the line, since she didn't get a talent deal when Cody left for WWE, either. She just isnt cut out as an in-ring talent and thats okay, there's no reason that Cody should take that personally.
Adam Sandler hadn't been funny for years, but it being a sequel to one of his films that I actually like was enough for me to consider watching it. MJF was that little edge that got me to click play.
All of those people have been champions of some description already. Cope and Christian have both been TNT champions, PAC has been trios champion both with Death Triangle and the Death Riders.
The Blues Brothers reference isnt lost on me, but Nazis suck regardless of where they're from.
And by nature of being the guy who legitimately ran the company, every time the character was forcing someone elese to do something humiliating, rhe actual man was too. He had the power to fire them if they didnt
I hope they come back to AEW one day. They're too entertaining.
He requested a transfer into hell just to be a part of Hogan's eternal torment.
Impressive that he can recover from something so serious in just a month.
4 goofballs and a troublemaker. Excellent formula.
I trusted AEW to do the right thing. They don't book anything like how WWE books. Even if Mox had won, id trust there was actually a plan.
This is a death sentence for me. If I dont have to watch at a particular time, I never get around to it, even if it is one of my favorite shows.
I really like this gear. He's swapped between the red and blue for this whole run, but the split down the middle is cool.
Not only do i agree that Steiner does a Frankensteiner and not a hurricanrana, but he's also the only person who does a Frankensteiner and everyone else does a hurricanrana
I was busy last night and missed it live. Guess ill just have to miss it entirely
A hundred times a year, sometimes.
I unironically think he actually could make a half decent president. Not, like, an all time favorite or anything, but pretty good.
I think thats because South Park, before its weird split licensing situation its in these days, traditionally aired on Wednesdays.
The more years that Wrestlemania happens, the more moments that happen at them and the less one of those moments stands out from the others. Its not special anymore.
I must know which ruleset is the sacred one. Are captures forced or optional? Are flying kings a thing, or are they only allowed a backwards move as a special ability?
He jumped off of whatever Spider-Man's website stuck to in low budget cartoons.
Holy shit. I knew it was bad, but now that its pointed out like this, I hadn't fully comprehended the level of pettiness at play here. They really got so jealous of a cool partnership that they went and said "all luchadors are jobbers that even our afterthought guys can beat."
This is why I abandoned reddit as a whole. All of the major subreddits are full of haters of the corner of the thing I like.
Those types will dismiss the idea that the sky is blue if it was stated in a Meltzer quote.
Got to hang out with both his fellow Storm and his fellow Cowboy on their biggest nights. Good for him.
I mean, fuck the other Don, too, but i can only take so much about that. I can enjoy some fuck Don Callis content all day. The fun kind is always preferable to the serious kind.
That might have been the greatest professional wrestling show of all time. No notes. Perfection.
Snoop's appearance on AEW predates Mercades even leaving WWE, so that disqualification technically doesnt apply, but it does apply if he appears again.
It is a little surprising that Stephen Amell didnt have a match in AEW within the first year or so. Or at least at any point where Cody was still there.
Yeah, there are some celebrities that have shown up, but its not anywhere near as many. Shaq Costco guys (and I only count them because theyre more known through TikTok and AJ being a wrestler was a happy coincidence) Mike Tyson Paul Walter Hauser Snoop Dogg That's it. That's all I can remember
Which is why its fine that he's not going to get it soon, but if he wants it or not, he's got one in his eventual future, too.
Im a little disappointed that Superman is the only non-Marvel character on there. At least throw a Power Ranger or a Ninja Turtle in there for maximum bootleg
I just think TK underestimated what a game costs to make these days and didnt budget them accordingly.
It wasnt even really in development hell. It took a long time and there was some rough dealings on the buisiness side of things, but it wasnt like there were a million shifts in the game engine, or getting ping ponged around publishers or any of the usual dev hell suspects.
Ah, so the link is the other way. He signed with the anti-AEW guy as a middle finger.
Was he repping Punk before he started beating up his coworkers and getting fired? There could be something there if he was.
I need a Wheeler Yuta and Ricochet tag team. Fans start chanting "Get a haircut" at Yuta, he tags in Ricochet. And they switch to chanting "Bald"
Exactly. The worst part of that would be that i genuinely want to see Darby become champion, but I dont want it at the expense of Hangman's redemption arc.
Bandido is underrated man.
I don't even like shirts with swears on them and id consider it
She's gotta be in the conversation for one of the all time great promo artists
In the 6 years of AEW PPVs, only a single digit amount of them have not made an A+ grade, and I dont think any of those made it below a C.
Speedrunners really do find a way in any game that they touch.
I think this episode marked a turning point. Jo might officially have more wrestling knowledge than me now.
I’m no Kamala stan, and voting for a prosecutor made my soul itch, but I have not stopped grieving the fact that we might have had free or affordable caregiving 😭
I agree. Im not apologizing or excusing it, its just a sign that its always been terrible. It absolutely should change, but until it does, the lack of change shouldn't be a surprise.
That's just how it works and always has. Monster movies in the 30s, westerns in the 50s, Kung fu movies in the 70s. That's Hollywood for you.
I occasionally see people claim that ET is a rare game because theyre familiar with the desert story. I always have to be like "no, bitch. Its one of the most common Atari games. They destroyed a bunch because it was wildly overproduced"
Plus, its got the built in match where they have to face each other for the #1 contender spot right at the one year mark.
I love hearing how supportive the refs are to one another. You mention it every week, but hearing someone else back you up on that was also nice.
And, given that theyre putting their biggest US based PPV in Texas is proof enough for me that we're a blue state thats manipulated into red by voter suppression and gerrymandering
I hate that this shirt exists. I just bought a car and I need to save money to keep up with payments. Yet, I have a personal story involving MJF and a pickle, so it seems laser marketed directly at me
Could be. But my money is on Stardom crossover being most of the surprise entrants.
Wrestlers having morals are the exception, bit the rule.
He's had several great matches with Ospreay. As far as i can find, he's only wrestled Swerve once in a singles and once in a tag. Its the fresher matchup and could be fun.
How have i not seen this? If I had to list the things in my YouTube feed, its wrestling stuff, videos about whatever video game im currently into, and Fool Us. You'd think it would hit me immediately.
I have an empty jar of one of these. I was still eating them when he came to town for a signing, so I couldn't take the jar out of the fridge to sign, so I encased one in resin for him to sign. He took it for himself and signed a photo instead.
You've booked Hank Hill?
I'd argue that not a single Dwayne Johnson character has been The Rock, including when he's literally been The Rock, since he initially left in 03. They've all been the same guy, but not The Rock. So he's not entirely reliant on a wrestling persona, just a Hollywood friendly singular character.
For a company that renamed everyone for the sake of owning everything, you'd think googling a name to make sure its not attached to someone else first would be step 1.
I have 0 problems with a match being a run-in fest if it makes sense for the story. The problem with them at 40 is that it only kind of made sense, but not really. What did Austin or Yaker have anything to do with the Bloodline or Cody? Nothing. All of these are setup beforehand.
Please dont give these types of posts air. Getting tired of it is part of why I left the other place.
Oh. So he figured out how to summarize himself in one post.
Bonkers, you say?
How many movies have we seen that feature Dwayne or Cena be advertised on Dynamite without issue? Yet when the shoe's on the other foot, its petty bullshit.
A hotel? For a structure like this, you could fit a damn shopping mall in there. Absolutely no way to build something like that in secret.
Why do I believe this, even knowing that the coconut gun was his idea?
He was cleared a few months ago, around the same time Skye Blue was. Since she's already back, we can only hope he's back soon, too.
Not fair. You started either the best character of any description.
I think the world title again. They might save the TNT title for his last storyline as an active wrestler, hopefully several years down the line from now.
