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,…

The Devil Inside
Always half ass thought in the back of my mind somewhere that maybe I’d run into Kevin Sullivan, I dunno, buying dog food or something. I’m crushed that now I never will.

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Stop me if you think that you have heard this one before
If you’re looking for super hot takes on Dyanamite, I dunno if I’m your man this week. I largely found the episode dull and don’t have a lot to say about it. There was technically good wrestling, but a lot of it felt marred by stupidity (should Kyle Fletcher cheat before MJF inevitably does? Yes,…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Open Letter (To a Wrestling Promoter)
I don’t really have a ton to say about last night’s Dynamite. I thought the first hour was pretty bad (Will Ospreay and Lance Archer was fine; it was the MJF scaffolding around it that I didn’t care for) and I think they’ve dropped the ball pretty demonstrably on the Toni Storm and Mariah May…
