More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Then fan the flame and keep the dream alive
Sorry I didn’t grind out a Full Gear review. Honestly, I didn’t really have any great takes, lukewarm or otherwise coming out of Full Gear, and I knew it would be covered to death, anyway. The show largely went how I figured; oh, they could have killed Orange Cassidy a bit more dramatically, and maybe…

I’m beggin’ and I’m pleadin’ but you always tell me no
I was gonna say something on BlueSky (come say hi if you have a chance) but I didn’t want to deal with word counts and whatever else. Since LZM is a clearing house for my thoughts, I thought I’d jot down some quick ones about the absolute one. I like Ricky Starks. I DON’T like…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Second gear, I lean right
I think I’m off the Mox train. I’m not sure I was every fully ON the Mox train, but now I’m off. Longtime readers will know I don’t particularly care for Jon Moxley; sure, I recognize his value to the company and so forth… he just doesn’t really do it for me on a personal…

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…

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…

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…

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…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: When you’re down on your luck and they repo your truck- SPOW KAINE
What the… ?! Doing this on a Wednesday morning? My whole rhythm is thrown off. I should be playing Balatro or something, wiling away the half hour before I have to turn on my work computer. Oops, I’m peeling back the curtain a bit too far. I don’t know if I have much to say…
