More Dangerous Than Dynamite: New moon on Monday
I dreamt I had invited Tetsuya Naito over to my apartment and was feeding him Golden Grahams… and he was really, REALLY impressed (with the Grahams, not me and my apartment). “SUGOI!” NO, I don’t know what that means. Dynamite (and Collison) did NOT emanate from Seattle, Washington as they said no less than six…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Que soy yo quien te espera
You’ll have to forgive the (relative) brevity of this week’s column… I’m very under the weather thanks to my plague carrying wife. She’s forced to go into our office three times a month and clearly the last time she was there, she caught THE DREADED SKUNGE and passed it along to me, so we’re coughing…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: You rock me like the real thing
I don’t really have the energy to rant about four hours of AEW action being too much this week… and I think the more militant weirdos about it have largely backed off, anyway. People sort of figured it out… this wasn’t really a four hour “blockbuster,” if you’ll excuse the term, a four hour “pay…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Then four hours ’til it starts again
I mean, yeah, sure, we’ll talk about the four hour show AEW produced last night (well, really, it’s an episode of Dynamite and then an episode of Collision) but I have something I need to get off of my chest. If I’m talking about YOU, I’m sorry, but so be it. Seriously, if you feel…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Somebody tired of dreaming
Honestly, there wasn’t a lot of meat on the bone for me in regards to Dynamite last night. The best match on the show had a dumb, dopey disqualification (sigh), and… it is seven LONG weeks until All In, so that’s gonna mean a LOT of treading water for all of the top programs. Thekla…

When cometh… THE COMMUTER
Peter Allen David got it. He was a journalist. He wrote stuff. The amazing thing was… Marvel editorial didn’t want him. They were locked in battle against the forces of the Sales Department, which is where PAD got his foot in the door at Marvel. It took maverick editor Jim Owsley (now known as the…

I Want To Shoot The Whole Day Down: Gambling is the finest thing a person can do, if he’s good at it
Feels good when you place your faith in a product and are justly rewarded for said faith. AEW pay per view remains the surest bet in the PPV universe (yes, even better than “Naughty Co-Eds open a Car Wash” vol. 6) and when the complaints are already coming in about how LONG the show was,…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Last week, messed around and got a triple-double
Another back to back Dynamite / Collision double header this week, due to, I dunno, sports of some kind. Hockey-ball or summat. It was probably for the best… while there was some stuff I REALLY liked on Dyna… the lack of actual, in-ring wrestling content left me fairly cold… but Collision… a show that the…

This is my quest to follow that star
If for some reason you need, just DESPERATELY NEED to hear my voice as I wiffle on for about four minutes about the late Sabu, Ryan from The Ballot podcast, part of the Count Out Network, was kind enough to have me talk a few moments about Sabu and his potential Wrestling Observer Hall of…
