More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Yes the world spins for you
Sometimes I feel bad when I don’t enjoy Dynamite as much as everyone else seemed to. Staring here at the blank screen, I’m not even really what I want to say or even if I have ANYTHING in particular to say about last night’s episode. I get it; people WANTED to enjoy the show, to…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: And I say, it’s all right
I guess we should talk about the AEW releases? Do I have to? It IS my site, after all; no one is holding a gun to my head… that I know of, anyway. I dunno… this isn’t really a news site and I don’t particularly have any huge, revelatory thoughts you already haven’t heard about…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Why don’t we turn the clock to zero, honey
As ever, the AEW discourse rings dumb throughout the endless tubes of the internet. The latest non-controversy controversy is whether the upcoming Australian show was designed to be a pay per view or not and then, on top of that, there is suddenly a LOT of hand wringing that the good folk of Australia aren’t…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Loneliness is not a phase
As much as I’ve come to hate the term, there is something to be said about “restoring the feeling.” I don’t think you have to look much further than last Saturday’s episode of Collision… a show that garnered near universal praise (at least as near as one can these days) and last night’s Dynamite, a…

TEN
Another year, another Voices of Wrestling Top Ten Matches of the Year list. 2024… look. Obviously there were plenty of good matches… but as my watching, my interest flag, I found coming up with ten matches that I’d genuinely recommend to be a bit of a challenge. Anyway, I recruited a friend, Tye, er… no,…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: I open up my hand and smack dab in the middle is a slow, slow fly
It seems like a pretty easy formula… you start Dynamite hot with dudes the crowd likes and that puts ’em in a good mood for a fun show… LO AND BEHOLD. With maybe one or two little missteps, Dynamite started hot, hotter than it has in a long, long time. Will Ospreay and his hotel…

I Want To Shoot The Whole Day Down: The more that you fear us, the bigger we get
I was already a fan, but I remember when Christopher Daniels gained a permanent grip on my heart. I WANT to say it was during ROH Dragon Gate Invasion, but I may be mistaken as I’m too lazy to dig out the DVD and check, but THE KING OF SPICE, CURRY MAN had a hard…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin
As much as I’d like to have told you Dynamite was a home run, especially after a weekend where AEW announced a stinky match and it was OPEN FORUM WARFARE between the haves and have nots… it was probably a solid double, at best. If that. It wasn’t all bad, certainly… Kenny Omega and his…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Return of the good gumbo
So God came back the other day. Look, I know I was not particularly kind to the Kenny Omega / Gabe Kidd match, but that was largely due to my distaste for both Kidd as a performer and the match layout casting Kidd as a virtuous defender of New Japan Pro Wrestling. KENNY, in the…

I Want To Shoot The Whole Day Down: There’s no more blood and no more pain
I had a startling revelation around about the third time I sat down to try to align my thoughts about the combined Wrestle Kingdom and Wrestle Dynasty shows into a coherent narrative (keeping in mind that I have not yet seen or read results for New Year’s Dash): this wasn’t going to be a review.…
