Mimi was also under NXT contract previously, so it may be that they’ve already worked with her and the ID deal would be a step backward in some ways.

I don’t think WWE ID is done. But I do think it’s noteworthy that we’ve seen three of the four women under those deals announce they’re either not renewing or not being renewed.

The program has been mostly male prospects since the beginning, so I hope some new women are signed 🤼‍♂️

My beloved Philadelphia Phillies went down in tragic fashion, but that just means there are more hours in the day to watch wrestling 🤼‍♂️

TGIF. Nobody relaxes like Nacho

Photograph of an orange and white cat sleeping soundly on its side on a purple fleece blanket. The cat's eyes are closed, and a tiny pink tongue peeks out. Its fur is white on its face, chest, belly, and legs, with large orange-brown patches on its back and head. The blanket has abstract orange, white, and brown patterns, and some cat hair. The cat is resting on a dark brown couch, with a blurred background showing a light blue wall and colorful objects.

The second wrestler, wearing a green and blue lucha libre mask and matching trunks, is on his knees, holding his head. Red ring ropes and a "RING OF HONOR" turnbuckle pad are visible, with a blurred audience in the background.

LIFE UPDATE: I’m 41 and I just learned how to draw the Cool S.

Photograph of a spiral-bound notebook with lined paper. Several hand-drawn "Stussy S" symbols are sketched on the page. A clear and black pen, labeled "BK93-A" and "Made in Mexico", rests on the right side of the notebook.

Does Bluesky punish you like the other site does when you don't post for a while and/or you tweet about a topic outside of your designated "area"?

Anyway, pro wrestling is cool.

Two of my sleeper favorite matches from this weekend have to be the Casino Women’s Gauntlet and Evolution Battle Royal.

Also, Hechicero vs. Michael Oku.

But yes, the matches with lots of women wrestlers vying for the big title shot were both a lot of fun 🤼‍♀️
