(Most of) AEW Dynamite (4-17-2024)

From Indianapolis! I have been there. I am not there right now.

I turned this on the TV tonight and decided I wanted to talk about it. I also tuned in about 24 minutes late so whatever happened in the first 24 minutes, I don’t know. Mercedes Mone ran off Julia Hart or something when I turned it on. Then Samoa Joe did a sit-down interview with Renee. It was good!

LET’S GO

REVIEW: ROH Death Before Dishonor (7-21-2023)

From Trenton, New Jersey, at the CURE Insurance Arena, fka Sovereign Bank Arena and Sun National Bank Center! Insane to me that ROH hasn’t been to New Jersey since 2012 and only once since 2009.

I am ready to die before I take part in or even observe any dishonor.

REVIEW: AEW Double or Nothing (5-28-2023)

From the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas! I didn’t get to watch live Sunday, but I am watching delayed now.

REVIEW: ROH Supercard of Honor (3-31-2023)

There is not a single show this week I want to see more than this one, and that’s not a knock on either night of Mania, I’m fired up for those, but this card has so much I’m really itching to see. Most of all, Samoa Joe vs Mark Briscoe.

Alright. Let’s go!

REVIEW: AEW Full Gear (11-19-2022)

Hi what’s up.

REVIEW: AEW Dynamite (10-26-2022)

We’ll do it live.

REVIEW: AEW Dynamite (10-18-2022)

It’s a Tuesday Dynamite! It’s “Title Tuesday”! Back in my day on the Tumblr web app, people had titty Tuesday, which is different. It was a better, simpler time.

PPV REVIEW: AEW Double or Nothing 2022 (5-29-2022)

I’m in a very cautious budgeting period of my normally reckless, freestyle way of life but I really wanted to watch this pay-per-view program live, so I went the crowdsourcing route via Ko-fi. It worked! And I actually did use the money to buy the show instead of sneaking away with it and stealing a pirate stream, which I do know how to do, despite everyone on the internet assuming you don’t know how if you suggest you’re willing to pay for something.

Also, I note nobody asked for any match reviews or anything, but I’d have a feeling of some type shame or the like if I didn’t do anything to even kinda feel like I’d earned this great payday, so I’m going to dust off the ol’ PPV-reviewing gloves and do a proper PPV review for the first time since probably, like, 2014.

This is a match review blog by design, but also it is a stupid fucking blog intermittently given attention by an aging idiot, so this will just exist. Who knows? Maybe more of this will happen. I do actually believe that there is value in how matches seem in the context of their entire show, but also in how matches seem in a vacuum. So in other words I have no opinion about reviewing wrestling other than most people should stop it. Not me, though.

Anyway, let’s go, motherfuckers.

Young Bucks vs Lucha Bros (AEW, 9-5-2021)

AEW All Out, Hoffman Estates, IL

This is for the Young Bucks’ tag belts in a STEEL CAGE. They’ve been running strong and obnoxious for a year or so and the Lucha Bros are hot on their trail at this point.

Rey Mysterio, Penta El Zero M & Rey Fénix vs Juventud Guerrera, Psicosis & Super Crazy (Expo Lucha, 8-31-2018)

Expo Lucha, Las Vegas, NV

Vampiro has an absolute fit on commentary during Juvi’s pre-match promo. It rules.
