TONY KHAN I TAKE BACK EVERY MEAN THING I'VE EVER SAID ABOUT YOU. BOOKER OF THE YEAR WITH TWO HOURS TO SPARE (sorry Deadlock Boyz) #AEWDynamite
Watching TJPW '26. Just saw a horse race and various DDT Heavymetalweight Title shenanigans. We're not even halfway done and this is already my show of the weekend thus far

Thinking about the EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, & Tony) that some actors achieve.
What would be the wrestling equivalent? Because if we take it as the WWE, IWGP, CMLL, & AEW World Championships, then Mercedes Mone is one belt away from the WICA. 🤼

Still reading an issue of Young All-Stars (1987-1989) a day, and for some reason, Issue #15 was like the best bit I've read thus far. It balanced heroics with teen drama beautifully and made this "inevitable"-seeming romance cute enough to actually root for. #comics

Had a dream this morning that the new episode of #StrangerThings came out and it was 4 hours and 51 minutes long. Didn't know my subconscious was writing satire like that

Just watched a "double feature" of Christy and Running Man. I definitely recommend both movies, but the tonal whiplash just an hour apart was absolutely insane.

Always a pleasure when I try to sign into a streaming service on my TV and I'm allowed to scan a QR code to log in. I've got long emails and typing them things with a Roku remote ain't it.

This article took me MONTHS to write. It was a labor of love and poor time management, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Everyone knows that WWE wrestlers always lose in their hometowns, right? WRONG! We crunched the numbers and busted one of the most pervasive myths in wrestling. @wrestlenomics.com @iamjohnpollock.bsky.social @jessecollings.bsky.social @bryanalvarez.bsky.social @wrestling.aiptcomics.com
Do WWE wrestlers always lose in their hometowns?
It was a common Vince McMahon critique, but does Triple H do any better?

Orangeman just named March Irish-American Heritage Month, which I do not mind in a vacuum. But as someone whose workplace is currently being bombarded with emails about stuff we can't celebrate because it's "DEI," Donald, wtf is a heritage month if not a celebration of diversity???

I just realized I never factored Inside Out 2 into my ranking of movies I saw last year for my blog. It certainly would've made top 10, maybe even top 5, but it's crazy that I wrote that list twice and forgot I watched it both times.
Shout out to The Wild Robot and Furiosa, though.

It really pisses me off that people are taking Hogan's political views as the main reason he got booed on Monday. Yeah, that's why he was in the news recently, but that's not where the hate stems from.
HULK HOGAN IS A RACIST, GARBAGE HUMAN. It's not just politics. It's hate.

People on the other site are dunking on a fan for having never seeing a Sasuke Special before. Let me say, as someone whose first time seeing a Tower of Doom spot was the WrestleMania 28 pre-show, I think it would've sucked for a bunch of dorks to tell me I'm a dumb baby fan for being excited

I've only followed three promotions this year (one obviously more than the other two), so forgive my limited POV:
- Swerve Strickland
- Toni Storm
- Hangman vs Swerve
- Ospreay vs Takeshita @ AEW Revolution
- DEADLOCK Pro Wrestling (with my tag team of the year, Speedball X Something)
