More Dangerous than Dynamite: I got love in my tummy
Three hours plus, Art. Hopefully I can write this review in less than three hours. You know, from a storyline standpoint, I actually was pretty okay with this episode of Dynamite (plus Rampage) for the most part. The follow up to the TK piledriver stuff was fairly logical, and despite some gaps here and there,…

I Want to Shoot the Whole Day Down: All I wanted was a Pepsi
Welcome to the first installment of “I Want to Shoot the Whole Day Down;” yet another example of an old dork ranting out into the ether. Despite this column title, I am not particularly a Boomtown Rats booster and the idea of Bob Geldof bossing around his contemporaries to aid in his attempts at feeding…

Worked shoots and the distant sound of thunder
Here’s another WOL rant from 2022 about famous worked shoots that people told me they liked. Note this is when I first started to worry about one MJF: Ah, the “worked shoot” promo. A way to say that you want something real in your fake wrestling. A way to make you feel like you saw…
