This will never not be cool to see for me. The Hardys, & Moose promos I photographed on WWE graphics that were used on WWE NXT tv that aired on The CW & Netflix 🤯 #NXTNA #TNAiMPACT #WWENXT #PhotographersUnited

I hate that my all my photography clothing comes from Target. I’ve been taking good care of them to make sure I don’t gotta go back. Also I stopped going to Starbucks but still am poor. What is this?

Okay I think I’m done having my social media break. Detaching is great

Hello Dallas! 👋

#PhotographersUnited

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 18

I love taking pics like this now. @dimitrymak.co really inspired me to remember to capture as much as possible. I’m just excited for 2025. I don’t prioritize social media so much anymore but I want to create content and have that speak for me.

Yes! Hated that season 2 was split! I love the 3 episode start. It’s a heavy show where binging a whole season doesn’t work. I enjoy the week to week aspect. Builds up hype for the show. Fallout always reminds me of a show that would have done better with weekly releases vs binge.

No. Not a whole story but I just want a reasoning to why 2 people are wrestling. It can be as simple as to be higher ranked or get closer to a title shot. Or they said something disrespectful. Just something more than a match announcement just because.

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 9

100% agree. I don’t believe 1 aspect of how a pro wrestling match happens is more important than the match itself. Jimmy vs Jey is a great example of a bad match ruining an entire feud and making it forgetful.

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 9

There is not right or wrong response because of what you said. I just want to have a different discourse vs the normal storyline vs in ring debate. I like hearing different opinions, and in wrestling everyone is correct or else we would only have 1 show to watch.

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 9

When they had WWE champion Cody vs WHC Gunther on Crown Jewel, I understood that is the best vs the best to prove dominance. No promos was needed for that. That’s what I mean by “The Why?”

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 9

Idk how else to describe this current era of WWE production lol it’s just the most widely used term right now

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 9

The Best vs The Best isn’t a why?

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 9

I have a discussion for #WrestleSky. I know the AEW/NJPW fan loves wrestling heavy TV as much as the WWE fans loves the cinema it brings to its show.

But besides ending in a good match, I think the “why” to a wrestling match is more important to make people care or tune in.

Agree/disagree?

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 8

Nope

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 7

I don’t know bottom lines. But I know my wallet is fatter than it was a year ago. TNA we have ads on our canvas too.

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 7

I’ve already acknowledged AEW being around helped people get paid more. I’m not gonna argue about words on a canvas. AEW has had draft kings on their mats for years. Stop arguing for the sake of arguing.

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 7

I don’t agree with it but if we want wrestlers to get paid more and have more opportunities then it needs to be done. Look at Futball Jerseys they’re basically walking billboards. Also I’m referring to the lighting, music, and video graphics they used. The ring part I tuned out after 1 match

Basil Mahmud @beezzzzy.bsky.social · Jan 7

After watching #RawOnNetflix last night I have become so motivated to keep excelling and making pro wrestling photography the best I could make it. The presentation that WWE put on last night was probably the best looking pro wrestling show ever produced and presented.

2 things.
Streaming quality for AEW on Max has been really good, and I’m enjoying all the story driven stuff. Wrestling needs a why, not just matches happening to happen.
