Brody King being on #AEWCollision is AWESOME.

For those in the broader BlueSky community, this man showed up in Mexico City wearing an ABOLISH ICE shirt on international television, and then he and the AEW community raised over $30K for families affected by ICE raids. ❤️✊

BlueSky exclusive. The Houston Wrestling annuals project has been updated. The first 80% as 1972 takes the lead, 77 shoots up the charts with a bullet and the 80s start representing. Also, too, I have a lot of doubles to sell if anyone wants a look before Ebay.

Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions

FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

The protests will grow.

All it takes is a spark.

6 years ago it was the murder of George Floyd, caught on camera, just a mile from where this happened.

Now it's ICE murdering Renee Good.

Both times, MAGA and Trump sided with the murderer.

Enough. We have the numbers.
A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

TIL the tragic story of Taylor Joe Blanchard, Tully's younger brother, who died in a car accident in 1978. Here, his mom gives him a eulogy two years later.

Highly recommending Paper Tigers, which is story of baseball players attempting to strike whenTy Cobb was suspended and the scabs brought on to play. Wild baseball story.
Some professional news: Coming soon.

Some major upgrades to the HW collection this week, but the funniest was when I found a credible list of the mid-1980s cards and realized I had one non-existent show on my 1985 list. Turns out Monsters of Rock was in the Coliseum that day! Also, 1972 is now in first place! June 30, 1972 here.

Dear news media,
Why not spend a few minutes today explaining how the process of going to war is supposed to work in a constitutional democracy? Because it ain't this.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words about Ep 87 the Two Ring Battle Royal. Here is some more great art from the Houston Wrestling programs. I think this art dates back to the match debut in 1974.

Happy birthday to my occasional Texas Rasslin' War(s) narrator, my boy Izzy aka Rev. Tommy Phelps, the not original Nature Boy, born Dec. 27, 1926. Izzy's biggest claim to fame is he recommended Jack Adkisson to Jack Pfefer.

Merry Christmas from 1976, the year Sylvester Ritter started his meteoric climb into the business. On Christmas night about two months into the business he took a ride up the road to Durham.
