Went to the Walmart I got Ciampa at just to see out of curiosity what'd be left of the two cases of E69 that were put out Monday (and to get some groceries). All sold out and it's back to Top Picks 2018 AJ and E66 AJ.

I had to go to the Mumford one to get Ciampa after finding the rest of the set at Bayer's. This was at Mumford.

Not wrestling related but I picked up the Geoffrey the Giraffe as Batman funko today. Last one in store!
Still no Sonya or Liv. I have Liv on the way from a buddy in the states so just need Sonya now

For those who haven't seen the thread on the Mattel board, be careful when picking up Sonya. Some people have reported her missing the plastic skirt piece that goes over her gear.

On the lookout now for E69 Rock and NXT4 Black.

My RetroFest Mr. Perfect fig arrived today, the figure looks great but man the packaging is just horrible. I like the gimmicky nature of it (arcade game design) but the plastic shell that contains the figure won't slide out like it does with the regular elites. I ripped part of the top trying to pull the plastic which ticked me off and I stopped before the rip got very big. It looks like you literally have to take the entire box apart in order to remove the figure- WTH?!
On a positive note, Ringside wrote the discounted amount- $22.49 ($24.99 - 10% discount) on the shipping label, so hopefully I won't get hit with any duties.

E69 spotted for the first time today, so I grabbed Ciampa. Awesome fig! I actually used to make fun of everyone going on about Ciampa and Ricochet being out of scale. When I got both in hand though they really are quite out of scale. I didn't get to fix Ricochet's height yet, but in regards to Ciampa, I think I have. I've seen a lot of people giving Ciampa Flair or Ryder thighs and I think that makes the figure have too much of that Frankenstein look. That and the fact that Ciampa isn't really that tall (I'd put him at 5'10) and he's not that bulky makes a lot of the fixes I've seen ruin the figure to me. So I opted to use Flair's calves instead. Looks great. Height corrected without the figure having that makeshift look. Apologies for the unsolicited advice, just thought I'd share.

TRU Pembina in Winnipeg had the network spotlight figures, at least 2 of each.
Americans are complaining about the Diesel release, but this is the first time elite Diesel has hit Canada, so I'm pumped!

So....who all watched AEW and NXT last night?
I was pleasantly surprised with the production quality of AEW. It was so awesome hearing JR and Schiavone live again too.

Watched AEW live and streamed NXT after (I do pay for the nextwork anyways so I don't feel super guilty streaming it to see it on time and not have the results spoiled)
I definitely preferred AEW last night. I absolutely love NXT and it's part of what really got me back into wrestling after an absence, but last night's episode highlighted my one major complaint with NXT. Too many no-sells and false finishes. Not in love with the booking decisions for last nights NXT either. (Without specifying since most won't have watched it yet). Still a really great show overall.
Conversely the AEW show felt like what I've been wanting out of wrestling since I was 5 years old. Ibviously they stacked the card pretty hard for episode 1, but if that pacing and structure is what I have to look forward to week after week, I am going to be a very happy wrestling fan. Regardless both shows were great and I will keep tuning into both regularly happy as can be. I am loving that AEW has helped NXT start using the word wrestling again. A part of me dies every time I hear the words sports entertainment.
I got chills when Cody came out for the first match. You could see in his eyes how significant this moment is in pro-wrestling. I also really loved the TSN write-up article post show and would encourage everyone to take 2 minutes to give it a read. Really gave it a true sports feel.

Both shows were good in my opinion. Aew was better than I expected. Fun time to be a wrestling fan.

what channel is AEW? Rogers/Toronto? I didn't realize we were carrying it live.
I hate that NXT has gone live because it's not on Sports360 and the Network carries the show a week behind. I can't follow NXT weekly like I used to do.

Great for all fans, but NXT has the upper hand

AEW is TSN (2 or 3, I can't remember. I just subscribe to TSN Direct). WWE Network is only 1 day behind for NXT. It airs Thursday evenings.

I finally snagged Breezango (I wish they were just called the Fashion Police) and Ken Shamrock off our Amazon site. And I grabbed up these hockey cards from a local card shop in my town for my collection as well. Not a bad few days!
