I would love this. Wrestlemania the Arcade Game is still hella fun to play, but it's become increasingly awkward listening to Vince McMahon and Jerry Lawler the entire time. An AEW equivalent with Excalibur and Taz would go down smooth.

I've been telling folks for years now the way forward is letting Netherrealm do a 21st century, AEW-centric Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game. Don't try to beat 2K at their own game, get weirder and wilder with it.

Watching a history of Jontron video and the narrator keeps saying things he did became epic memes that endure to this day, and I have no idea what he's talking about. I've watched Game Grumps for six years, so I feel like I should be adjacent to this stuff but I barely know who the hell this guy is.

My main beef with AEW's Clockwork Carnage is that it's a solution in search of a problem. We didn't need a new way for eight guys to fight at the same time. The hype video has nothing to say except that you can pin the champ and not win, or the champ could lose without being pinned. Yay?

Kept seeing AEW fans saying Swerve's Reverse Flash gear is some crucial signal for Strickpage lore, but now I'm getting a better look at the New Level's gear and they're dressed like regular Flash, so I think that's all it means. Unless Reverse Flash tried to kiss a dude who drank his blood, I guess

Writing efforts have picked up a bit since I started jotting ideas down at the office with a pen and notepad. Always seemed tedious to me, but I've discovered the Pilot G2 .07mm is very comfortable. Less comfortable: Copying the notes into my laptop. I'm considering investing in a clipboard.

It so funny that we all hate Wheeler Yuta so much that we collectively agree that he's the Death Rider we never thought Danielson could forgive, as opposed to Jon Moxley, who definitely did nothing wrong.

In words we never thought we'd type again... Wheeler Yuta tags in Bryan Danielson as the former world champion goes to work! Danielson aligns with the Death Riders in honor of the memory of PAC as #AEWDynamote is LIVE on TBS and HBO Max

We don't even have a cause of death for PAC, but people are already using it to call for stronger drug testing in AEW. It's like people don't know what to do with their grief, except to skip to the next page in the hot take playbook. You can just lay out for a few days, guys, it'll keep.

On days like this it feels like I've seen a hundred beloved pro wrestlers pass away too soon, too suddenly. I wish I could tell you it gets easier. It won't. All I can offer is that you'll find the strength to endure it.

I don't know how you watch All Out and decide they "brought back" the Moxley/Death Rider main events from 2025, when the main idea of this main event was that Moxley lost so the Death Riders will be out of the main event scene for a long time. #AEW
