More Dangerous Than Dynamite: With a slack jaw and not much to say
It’s a tough one this week as I’ve nothing particularly insightful or witty to say in the chamber. Dynamite was pretty darn good for the most part. The in ring action was strong, many stories were advanced… most things were logical… there wasn’t really a lot to sink my teeth into, analysis-wise! The nitpicking I’m…

MDTD- supplemental
Oh yeah, I almost forgot. They had tournament king Kazuchika Okada BURY one of the all time best, MR AUGUST, MASAHIRO CHONO, saying “Who’s Chono? No one knows who that is,” while basically equating the Continental Classic to the G1 Climax as being on par. I hate to argue with my king in exile but:…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Outside, it’s America
Obviously, this is not really a political blog… this is a place for me to whine endlessly about wrestling and comic books and other childish nonsense, but some things are bigger than “politics,” whatever THAT means. I’m devastated at the outcome of the US presidential election and afraid for my brothers and sisters who aren’t…

Killing Fascism
Seemed appropriate on the grimmest day in America I can remember since January 6th, 2021 I’m scared, I’m tired, I’m angry. That’s all.

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
Well, fortunately this week, I did NOT, in fact, see weapons in the hands of young children. I was a fairly harsh critic of last week’s showdown between the Mox World Order and the AEW Frontline (and rightfully so; all that nonsense sucked on toast and hurt everyone involved, perception-wise) with all the dorks wielding…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: This isn’t my love song / It’s more like my love-gone-wrong song
Dynamite the last couple of weeks has been a bit difficult to pin down. They seem to have directions that they’re following and they’re back to PROMOTING UPCOMING SHOWS (thank goodness) but… there just hasn’t been much good wrestling the last two weeks. The people who don’t watch AEW regularly or who try to make…

Some days, you just want to look at a pretty gal
Sorry; I missed the punchline in this swipe homage to a Dan DeCarlo Humorama panel, but I’m sure it was undoubtedly something to do with a PAIR of something and the 2A door key.

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: All the locals hide their tears of regret
Scuttling around my various internet haunts yesterday, there was a weird vibe. I mean, there usually is after an AEW Pay Per View, successful or not, but there’s generally a feeling of “I hope they follow up all the cool stuff that happened” mixed with some “this company can’t promote, what are they doing,” a…

I Want To Shoot The Whole Day Down: To everything turn, turn, turn
Say what you will about AEW (Gotch knows I do every week) but they are a company UNPARALLELED when it comes to Pay Per View. Is every show perfect? Not hardly… but they have to be the company with the biggest ratio of delivering the goods when money is on the line. My beloved WCW…

All Night Long
Was listening to a wee bit of Peter Murphy yesterday and when I’m bored during Dynamite, the pencil comes out: The missus asked me why I was thinking of Murphy and I shrugged, She was worried that he had passed. Says something about my motivations to produce, I suppose.
