The plan is to record a *Dome/Dash/other major shows in Japan* edition of the Big Audio Nightmare with @sempervive.bsky.social this Thursday!
Famous last words, but I’m going to *try* to start engaging in more Japanese wrestling discourse on here again as well in ‘26.

Speedball vs Fletcher immediately enters the pantheon of all-time great TV matches. Absolutely incredible performance by both guys.

I want to live in a timeline where Lawton Randolph is the commissioner of a promotion and his main antagonist is Col. Robert Parker.
You really can't find more of a 'forgotten bit player' in pro wrestling than GWF Commissioner Lawton Randolph but I really wish he had been around longer. Something about the way he talks makes him a perfect Texas rasslin authority figure.

Did anyone else order Full Gear through PPV .com and get screwed out of the replay?
Apparently they are telling people that the replay isn’t included with the PPV, which is INSANE and different from how they have done it in the past.

If I wasn’t being paid to do a podcast that covers the promotion, I’m pretty sure I would be skipping the G1 Final tomorrow.
House of Torture stuff is just Russo-level bad, and it NEVER ENDS. And it’s so intelligence-insulting that it kills my interest in the rest of the product absolutely dead.

Here's what Janel Grant's lawsuit against WWE and Vince McMahon alleges about Brock Lesnar.
(These pages contain detailed descriptions of alleged sexual abuse by McMahon and what Grant says was his attempt to traffic her to Lesnar during a contract negotiation.)

I was a Punk guy going back to like 2003, but this is 100 percent the final nail the coffin (that had already basically been closed in the past few years) for me.

So, IF circumstances end up dictating that it’s necessary, would you be interested in a Patreon-hosted podcast that is:
- very similar to what I’ve been doing for the past 20 years
- at least four shows/month: a mix of solo shows and shows with a very familiar co-host
- starting at $4.99/month
- very similar to what I’ve been doing for the past 20 years

Hi. I won't be rejoining WOL in June as this other new thing I'm doing is THANGIN and it sure seems like it will continue to.
@bryanalvarez.bsky.social has been outstanding during this & has given me the light to come on WOL at anytime. When Dave moved on Bryan could have picked anyone... (1/2)
