Welp, it's been a year and a half, but I admit I was wrong in spring of 2024 when I said Willow wasn't getting her title back 🤼♂️

Fittingly that is one of the key characteristics of being a main character 🤼♂️

I get unreasonably annoyed at Amazon's "based on your recent purchase" notifications
"You recently bought an HDMI splitter, here are others!"
I already bought it.....do you think I'm just constantly in need of one HDMI port to connect to 2 or more?

AEW at its creative peak was the place that had stories fans would argue about 5 different ways a story could go, then AEW comes up with a 6th that's equally brilliant
I felt a little of that here, I'm actually intrigued to see where it goes 🤼♂️
...plus a title being taken off Okada is always good

My goal for wealth used to be "make enough where I don't get concerned over the price of jerky"
I think I'll amend it to "make enough where I can casually go to paid DnD sessions every week"
I just checked out startplaying and while some are reasonable, $35 a week? Really?

I'm not saying everyone needs to be happy or like MJF or anything but....I'm going to bang this drum again
We need to have a conversation about people with revisionist history acting like MJF's whole reign was bad as opposed to like, the last couple months, really only once Adam Cole got injured 🤼♂️

I had a lot of ideas for who could win the finals of the C2, but they all rested on the assumption Takeshita was beating Okada
Because I can't see Fletcher beating Okada in the finals for meta reasons
and I can't see Mox beating Okada in the finals for story reasons
Fuuuuuuuck 🤼♂️

In regards to the main event tonight I had to rack my brain trying to figure out if there's any precedent for a men's world title changing hands in a (one fall) 4 way match
Had to go all the way back to this 🤼♂️

I can't quite articulate why, but Swen saying the true reason Larian isn't making another Baldur's Gate being because they just aren't that excited about DnD somehow hurts more than any other explanation they could have

I tend to avoid the deep AEW/WWE tribalism, but can we not "both sides" the Andrade situation?
Miro, Fenix, Starks, etc were all getting paid. Andrade was not and was told he couldn't get paid anywhere else
Not condoning AEW's stuff, but one is OBJECTIVELY worse here

There's gatekeeping, and then there's dragon ball fans on reddit who say you can't even take part in the conversation unless you've read the entire manga

I'm not thrilled about a 4 way match, but I want to talk about the MJF promo itself
I think people are being too quick to dismiss it as "same shtick"
I saw it as "I'm still an asshole, but I'm making a step forward, and I'm ready to carry this company again" 🤼♂️

But man....I feel like people don't talk enough about how 4 way just....isn't a good match type, and almost every good 4 way match is good in spite of the format, not because of it 🤼♂️

Sometimes I wish I was part of a wrestling podcast, just because
a) I love talking about wrestling
but more importantly
b) it'd actually motivate me to keep up to date with wrestling instead of falling off for a month then binging in a day

I am a firm believer in suspension of disbelief and how real like (notably MMA) shouldn't affect how you buy things in wrestling🤼♂️
But
One thing I stand by is passing out from a hold instead of tapping out doesn't make you look 'tough,' it makes you look stupid

One of the weirdest wrestling phenomena to me is the IWC collectively convincing themselves that Jack Perry is terrible as opposed to a pretty young wrestler that has shown a lot of potential and growth, who's currently in an edgelord era that will be in our rearview soon enough 🤼♂️

I went out of my way today to install WWE2K25 just to confirm that in "Create-A-Show," of the dozens if not hundreds of available locations you can set your show to be at, Jacksonville Florida is one of, like, 6 that are disabled by default 😅

OH, I forgot my other reason for not always considering AEW criticism
Because often times the criticism ends up being "you don't do it like WWE, and you should" and it turns out what they're criticizing is actually a feature instead of a bug

Andy hit the nail on the head, it always gets me when people present their subjective opinions as objective fact...when often they end up being false anyway
"AEW doesn't tell stories"
"The matches are happening for no reason"
"They don't sell"
"Don Callis gets zero reaction" (I JUST SAW this one)

The whole thing is a waste of time.
As a fan, I don’t have to agree with your criticism. Saying it can’t be accepted is just a roundabout way of saying your opinion is fact, and I must adopt it or I’m ignoring facts.
I have my own criticisms. I make them all the time. They don’t adopt mine either
