More Dangerous Than Dynamite: I’m getting back on my feet and I’m grooving to the beat
Feels good to have a decent Dynamite after whatever the hell last week was. Sure, Grand Slam sounds decent (and will likely be a wasteland, attendance-wise) but ultimately… past the business metrics and incoming TV deals and the moving goalposts and whatever… did the show entertain my surly ass? The answer this week was yes.…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Not much to say
After a tremendous pay per view, man, Dynamite left me cold. There were a couple of good things, but… I have to be honest… most everything was mediocre to awful. I don’t really have a lot to say about the show. I would rather talk about the good stuff, but in brief: Mariah May grinding…

I Want To Shoot The Whole Day Down: State of shock
Warning: post contains rambling, potential gatekeeping, eye rolling and gushing, plus rampant speculation. Very much a first draft, stream of consciousness thing. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. When I woke up this morning, a buddy of mine had posted a reaction (likely from someone a lot younger than I) from a person over the weekend, pertaining…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Let me hear you cut it, DJ / Let’s make some noise / The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
I mean… talking about a so-so Dynamite practically feels like an anti climax after Hangman Page got his pyromania on (NOT a Def Leppard reference but it COULD HAVE BEEN) at the end of Wednesday’s episode. Instead, if nothing else, we should probably look at this instantly infamous ACT OF ARSON as compared to the…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: There’s no tix in the Champaign room
See what I did there? I’m a funny guy; I think of clever things. So… All In came and went. As the masses continue to fight about whether or not 53 some odd thousand is good or not (it is, now move on for Gotch’s sake), AEW seems to be at a bit of a…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Your future dream is a shopping scheme
Just a full warning here; despite the good parts of last night’s show, the bad stuff or the too little, too late stuff is really what I’m going to blither about here. If you loved Dynamite… this is probably not going to be your cuppa today. Don’t get me wrong; there WAS good stuff. If…

I Want To Shoot The Whole Day Down: Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité, for there’s life in the old world yet
Nothing to get hung about; just some thoughts re: ZED ESS JAY, the G1, Yota Tsuji and the state of New Japan Pro Wrestling. Of course, we watched the G1 semis and final over the weekend. Not bad; I don’t do star ratings but if you had me rank the three final matches I’d probably…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Strong against crime
Have to say it was a pretty decent Dynamite this week, even if it was a bit heavy on video packages and tomfoolery. Despite my antipathy for All In and the fact that they have seemingly only really built a couple of really strong matches for it… I will definitely be interested to see the…

Oh yeah, sometimes I do a podcast
My pal Brute McVein and I dabble in podcastry. We always have a great time doing these and then fail to do another one for months at a time. Such is life! In this episode of the Brute McVein Wrestling Revue (with DJ Convoy), our lawyers finally lift the legal restrictions and multiple restraining orders,…
