my thoughts from this weeks double Dynamite / Collision episode. #AEW #WrestleSky 🤼

I believe Samoa Joe is the perfect professional wrestler. Here’s my case why.

I’m really proud of this piece. I hope you guys check it out and let me know what you think, though. #WrestleSky #AEW #WWE

Samoa Joe challenges Adam Page | You don't defeat Godzilla
Like Godzilla or even the destroyer god itself, Samoa Joe doesn’t revel in carnage. He’s ambivalent towards it, because he’s a fundamental force of nature.

I’m lucky to call myself a wrestling columnist. I’ve always kept a day job though and I’m often asked what I “do for a living.” When I mention my column, people seem bewildered.

The question every wrestling fan dreads | You know it's fake, right?
I’m often asked what I do for a living. When I say that I’m a professional wrestling columnist, people stare at me in utter disbelief. They’re bewildered.

Here’s my full review of Forbidden Door. It wasn’t a perfect PPV by any means, but all in all, I was pretty impressed.

All of my match ratings are included, as well.

AEW 'Forbidden Door' Review: Solid show, with one exception
The AEW and NJPW joint venture, “Forbidden Door,” is always one of the year’s most exciting shows — despite its lackluster build.

AEW FORBIDDEN DOOR THREAD:

we’re live skeeting all day long!!!!!

This parasocial relationship that Cody has with AEW has become concerning.

It feels like he’s upset that he didn’t reach these heights in AEW. He wanted to be the face of professional wrestling. He wanted to be a celebrity. But, he needed the WWE machine to accomplish it.

Fun episode of Dynamite. My full review will be up tomorrow
Christian Cage reluctantly accepts one hug from Copeland and now they have to wrestle together at Forbidden Door.
Hiroshi Tanashi, Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi, Will Ospreay, & Darby Allin is an INSANE starting five.

Hologram's involvement in this was a dead giveaway. The only streak that matters is still alive.

I didn't expect The Young Bucks to actually whoop Justin Roberts' ass. The $10,000 fine, though? What the fuck is that? They should have to go one-on-one with the Undertaker.

It’s a little disheartening that all of the relevant angles in the women’s division can converge in one segment

Moxley has been in his bag since Dynasty. Sidestepping the dive off the ramp was glorious.
