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…

Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth with Money in My Hand
I was led to believe that yesterday was Superman Day. It was not; but strangely both April 18th and June 12th are listed online as a POSSIBLE candidate for same. Perhaps it was serendipitous luck that I accidently selected MIRACLE MONDAY (IYKYK) instead and that seems appropriate enough to have drawn the following: This image…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: I know it’s not your thing to care
I guess whether or not you dug last night’s Dynamite really comes down to how into SHENANIGANS you are. If you’re into FOUR segments with the Hurt Business / MJF, if you’re into GABE KIDD and around 12 other people being involved with a cage match (and it’s aftermath) or not. I’m not into either…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: I kicked the leg out of your leg
Another back to back Dynamite / Collision taping means a ganged up review POUR VOUS. And hey, Dynamite was pretty great and Collision was solid. Both had a tiny bit more “sports entertainment” or whatever we’re calling it this week than I STRICTLY prefer, but that’s not a sin. I think the record will show…
