RIP Dory Jr. There really aren't many reminders of the old NWA left these days; truly an era will be over, a chapter in history closed with finality.

This Continental Cup lineup looks like Mox picked most of his favorite guys in AEW and TK picked a couple extras to throw in for spice.
I never wanna see/hear people say deathmatch wrestling is 'dumb shit' if they willingly subject themselves to WWE on a regular basis. Clown car shit 🤡
Today's mood: "My heart keeps saying, 'Stay young' My lower back seems to disagree"
It is 4 a.m. I ate all of two taquitos and a bowl of cherries today while driving 10 hours—5 there, 5 back—to see three women from STARDOM (along with an honestly solid lineup of domestic talent) at a Knights of Columbus in random, Illinois. I am tired and feel insane, but it was real fun.
Caught up on G1 and the 5Star, so watching this recent SEAd show to see how Noa is progressing in her return.
Wanted this album like crazy as a kid, but Target wanted like $18 so it never happened. Their loss, I guess.
This also has been some of the worst AEW commentary tonight, maybe don't go back to Montreal for a long time idk.
Watched nine hours of wrestling tonight and boy are my arms tired (but I am caught up with both G1 and the 5Star).
This guy Great O'Khan is real shitty in-ring these days, and his best days haven't been much better.
You ever just think about how in the Big Rock Candy Mountain, all the cops have wooden legs?
Cole, one of our local Xrd players tragically had their house catch on fire and have a donation going for support in the interim while their house is repaired. If you could support them at this time I would sincerely appreciate it. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

Utami being a very giving wrestler works when she is not expected to be the ace. She actually seems to recoil and shy away from that role when put in that position.
If golf were never on a TV at a restaurant or bar ever again that would be fan-fuckin-tastic.
Night 4 of G1 was solid. Thought Take/Yuto and Shingo/Boltin were the standouts but Sanada/Tsuji was better than expected. Oiwa/GOK was OK as well but avoid Jake/Goto because goddamn does Jake suck.

Who cares, let Sammy and Tay go walk into AAA or WWE proper or TNA, whatever, it's not like it's a big loss.
Achieved today's domestic task: replacing an old (maybe 40-year-old 🥴) toilet seat. It would have been much easier if shit hadn't been stuck together by time.
As the Cup comes to a close, we can all rest assured that an entire generation of viewers now knows where Cabo Verde is, and appreciates their tenacity behind the ball. Alright, let's do it again in a year for the women.
We have reached the part of the game where it is now France that is blasting asses. How many goals we gonna see today?
The game doesn't matter but this is still an ass-blasting and we haven't even reached the half.
If I'm Big Dave I'm never releasing the rating for Mercedes/Maya. Let people meme it into the ground, but putting something out there will end up way worse for him I think. Plus, it'd just be funny to not address it again.
Hoping Sinner & Saint land someplace I can watch them (MLW/AEW/ROH/NJPW) because I think they're a pretty entertaining team.
