Every week it seems some old timer who never drew a crowd has an opinion on how one of today's younger wrestlers doesn't have an original personality. Not listening to them is the only viable option - both for fans and talent.

Listen to master-wrestlers who drew crowds like Austin, Hart, Foley, etc

What a tonally odd ending to #WWERaw.
December 9, 2025 at 3:23 AM
There's a far too common refrain in pro-wrestling promos these days where one guy says to the other guy something like, "I don't want to face this version of you, I want you to face the better version of you."

So within the universe of #WWERaw, what match or segment got bumped to accommodate this impromptu match between #LAKnight and #LoganPaul? This is obviously not a question #WWE wants a fan to ask. The reality is it's just not considered by the writers/booker. There's no narrative consistency.

I cannot abide this commentary pairing.

Never thought I'd say this, but I miss Cole.

Terrible backstage segment is terrible. #WWERaw

Gunther is the perfect heel and possibly the best character in #WWE today.

Great promo from Gunther. Delighted it wasn’t a promo train. Solid way to begin #WWERaw.

This is such a great take of the Tour of the Islands (with that bonus little swoop up into position!)

In ten years we’ll be leaving our iApartments to ride in self-driving Tesla cars on our way to the Netflix theater to see the latest Disney movie. And there will be nothing else.

Hey pro-wrestling: stop doing that terrible thing where the camera lingers on a wrestler and/or interviewer after a backstage promo.

Can't we all just agree that #ProWrestling is #Sex?

Well it is, but not for the reason you think. Give my latest post on Lavish Made a read and share with your fellow sickos:

Here's a peak behind the curtain of the pod. This is something most podcasts, particularly indie ones, won't provide. Overall, I consider these good numbers for any indie podcast, because they show a steady increase over the past 12 months as I've produced new episodes every week.

What I love most about #AEW is how there are interesting, three-dimensional characters at every level of the card. There's someone to like, root for, or root against at all times. The result is I'm engaged from the start of a show to the finish. #AEWFullGear is a perfect example of this.

#AEW commentary teams flesh out the narratives in the ring. A novel concept. Who knew such a thing could work?!

Rooting for Statlander.

Nothin against Mercedes, I just like long championship reigns and I think Statlander has earned a lengthy run.

I could watch Briscoe and Fletcher all day. Fascinating juxtaposition of aesthetics and styles.

This exchange between Claudio and Ricochet is a great example of how Claudio could work as a babyface in #AEW. Just give him heels to fight, and do everything he always does. His entrance, the camera following him from left to right through the crowd should always be how he enters.

Psyched for #AEWFullGear tonight. Really pulling for Statlander to retain.

I had a dream I was running WWE and CM Punk was causing me so many problems backstage.

The #AEW Women's Division is excellent. I genuinely care about the women's tag titles. This tournament has been great, showcasing so many great talents.
