🤼 NEW WRESTLING CROSSWORD 🤼

I put up a little thread yesterday about how this crossword is different from anything I've done in the last few years. Quick explanation: the four long Across answers are kind of jokey, and the answers are all structured similarly. Please enjoy!

Wondering why Jim Steele wrestled as "The Lacrosse" in All Japan from 1995 to 1997. Like what does that name even mean?

I know car repairs got more expensive starting during the pandemic. That seems like it would lead to more people not being able to afford them

If he didn't reply "Band of Brothers got me thinking about 3 Man Band vs. the Creed Brothers" then there's still hope

Even knowing about Ibushi's injury, that was really not how I expected the end of that match and segment to go. #AEWCollision

Honestly, putting everything else aside, I'm curious about which "leading political figures" other than Trump would attend a WWE show.

So, tomorrow's crossword will be themed, and the plan is to have every 3rd crossword from here on out be themed. I have a bunch of theme ideas, some of which I've been hanging on to for literally years. Very satisfying to be able to finally use them. It feels like I've levelled up! [5/5]

Kevin @avalanchestyle.bsky.social · 5d

As you may know, I've got a wordlist that I use to create my crosswords, which I put together from scratch. I'm always adding to it. Until recently, I wasn't able to build a crossword around three or four specific long entries, but now the wordlist has grown to the point where I can.

Kevin @avalanchestyle.bsky.social · 5d

In themeless crosswords, there's none of that, it's just a bunch of words. My crosswords for the last few years, even though every entry is about wrestling, technically they're all themelesses.

Kevin @avalanchestyle.bsky.social · 5d

There are 2 types of crosswords: themed and themeless. In themed crosswords, there'll be something clever going on where some of the entries, usually the longest Across words, will have some sort of connection. Here's an example. See the alt text for more of an explanation.

Example of a themed crossword. I highlighted the theme entries in yellow: LAKE TROUT, LEFT TACKLE, LAUNDRY, COLD CALLER, and lastly a "revealer" entry that explains what they have in common: they're all things that can be ON THE LINE.

New wrestling crossword coming tomorrow. For the first time in quite a while, this one will be themed. If you know what a themed crossword is, great! If you don't, here's a thread about it. [1/5]

It's THIS weekend? Kind of amazed by how I have absolutely no idea about these shows any more.

Kevin @avalanchestyle.bsky.social · 7d

"These AEW shows that lose against NXT and TNA" is a creative way to word it. I guess TNA really IS the number 2 company!!

If the UFL's going to have a team named the Houston Gamblers, then why not just name the Louisville team the DraftKings? Whenever they play each other, Louisville fans could be like "the house always wins"
