More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Boogaloo dudes (I want to talk to you, all of you)
I blame YOU. Well, maybe not YOU in the specific, but certainly you in the abstract. Definitely that guy over there, and maybe her, too. Maybe… I dunno, a week or so ago, for some reason, someone dredged up that weird deal from a couple years back where Ricky Starks was sharing a ring with…
More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Help me lay the renegade to rest
Obviously it was already going to be an emotional show, AEW Dynamite celebrating the career of the stalwart second banana Rebel (not Reba) and her struggles against amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, or Lou Gerhig’s disease)… …but then Andy Williams, the Butcher (of Butcher and Blade infamy) only went and passed away on Sunday at the…
More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Life goes on after the show
What deadly dose of poison do I quaff before Dynamite starts; dirt awful discourse about the ratings Big Dave Meltzer is going to give the top matches at All In, SUPER dirt awful discourse about how no matches have been announced for Dynamite as of 2pm PST, or the SUPER, MEGA TOXIC discourse about how…
I Want To Shoot The Whole Day Down: It lingered in the background fallow ’til we found our lost cause
Somewhere between 45,000 and 50,000 human beings descended upon Wembley Stadium for AEW’s tentpole event All In at the end of August and, since apparently at least one security guard may have been armed with deodorant, according to a pal of mine, I’m sure at least a portion of them smelled okay. That’s certainly a…
More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Bruv, bruv me do
All In is here and man, I dunno. I’m sure it will be good. Mostly. But it just doesn’t feel particularly special. Again, AGAIN AEW produces this ancillary content about Will Ospreay fpr YouTube and AGAIN, they dump it all on you (and I and everyone) mere days, mere HOURS before AEW All In, the…
More Dangerous Than Dynamite: That’s the colour of my room
O frabjous day! The clanky sounds of Chairgate (don’t ask) have given way to the sharp, barking sounds of Dogggate (super don’t ask). Sigh. Look, all I require is a decent episode of Dynamite and a star to guide her by. In This Week in Supplemental Material, AEW remembered Will Ospreay is meant to be,…
M-Day
My first issue of Avengers was issue #222; not a fill in, exactly (and actually somewhat important as it’s the first outing for this particular lineup of the team), but it was not produced by a permanent creative team. The book was undergoing changes; a new editor had arrived and the editor in chief was…
More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Oh, Sammy. Sammy is so dirty
Have to say before committing eyeballs to phosphor and fingers to keyboard; this is not the best sounding Dynamite on paper. There are three weeks to Wembley, brethren; in the words of TONY KHAN HIMSELF, let’s fucking go! No time to slooooow down, so what is this card? Tonight, Dynamite emanated from a very lackluster…
More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Jump in that water, be free
Editor Convoy here: in between taking notes and writing the column last night, I lost at least part of my draft in a fashion where it couldn’t be retrieved. Frankly, I didn’t feel strongly enough about either the show or what I had already written to reconstruct all of it. If this missive lacks the…
