Rest in paradise to the Original Gangsta. No one has ever, or will ever, do it quite like Jack. The promos were fire. The violence was mythical. The man is a legend.
I will bump some NBK in his honor. I know I always got goosebumps when that song hit.
One final time: As he said....the three letters that meant most in this business (to a lot of us)
E C W! E C W!

RIP to her. My dad loved that show. One of the greatest Christmas gifts I ever got him was the Cling and Clang figures to complete his collection.

Don't need five...just 3.
My grandma and grandpa, and my dad. Only my grandpa is still living. It would be nice to feel whole again. And my grandma would make her homemade lasagna. Yum!
If this isn't in the spirit, maybe: Albert Einstein ICP George Washington Tesla

Afternoon all, I hope this finds everyone well. Lately I have been pondering about myself and my future, and what I want out of it, but I realized it is somewhat divergent of what my younger self wanted....ageing is funny sometimes. It got me thinking, what would my younger self think of me now, just as a person? I think he would maybe see a bit of hope for the future self, but mostly he'd be disappointed that I didn't reach the stars, even though I tried. My views differ a bit, and I am sure that would bring a head shake. Hopefully a bit of hope and optimism speach about how I can fix it. The tales of life lived and loss would be disheartening and might alter his being instantly.
We all have that little "us", inside, that we try to fulfill all the promises made to ourselves back then. We want to give back what we lost or never had. Not to say our younger selves were right always....
How would your younger self feel about you now? I get this may be a thread understood by our older cats, more, but hopefully everyone has something to say. Much respect guys.

Rumors that WWE is negotiating with MLW about a partnership. This may hurt MLW in the hardcore arena, specifically being Nick Gage was supposedly signed with them. Then again there is a big upside, but the mix of styles is what brought them to the dance....

America's Most Wanted isnt on anymore. It was a limited return it seems and now I have to sit through 3 hours of Really Awful Wrestling on Mondays It says 5 episode season 1. It did catch 4 bad guys, so hopefully it will be back. It needs John Walsh in some capacity. His passion made criminals fear being on his list.... If you need a true crime fix, go down the websleuths rabbit hole or unsolved mysteries sitcom boards from back in the day for a dose of what has been featured elsewhere, and to which you may be of assitance; you just never know. So much bad out there, and so many mysteries.

Bought tickets today to see Mox vs Gage in a deathmatch. Should be a blast. This will be brutality at its most brutal!

First, there are some great ideas in here.
Now, for myself, I would set aside an island, have it fortified and well stocked, add internet, place myself in it and then let someone else be king. I know that I wouldn't be good enough to rule over anyone; I can barely tie my shoes. I just want to be isolated, safe an alone from all annoyances.

Regular 8-5 for me, but live far from it. 6:10 wake up to be out of the house by 7:25.

Albert WAS positioned better though having left. WWE fumbled him which is ya know, typical haha, but he did come back a main event talent. They just stuck him with that dumb gimmick and finisher, he also debuted on the EXACT same show as the biggest return in wrestling which was Brock Lesnar. He was dealt a bad hand haha I liked Tensai

Hit me with a list. I like gimmicks, so the character angle and story fit is where I originally came from when I was trying to see where Pogo the Clown (XPW) would fit, but wrestlers in general fit better in certain atmospheres. Lucha is a huge blind spot for me, so I don't have anything there besides early Rey Mysterio Jr. Andre the Giant (I think he'd be a better version of Archer) Ric Flair Jushin Thunder Liger Ultimo Dragon The Great Muta Shinsuke Nakamura Satoshi Kojima Kazuchika Okada Kenta & Marufuji Kurt Angle Eddie Guerrero Chris Benoit Rob Van Dam Sabu Taz Shane Douglas Raven & Dreamer Mike Awesome Justin Credible Billy Kidman Shane Helms Kind of a hodgepodge list, but give me 8 of those and I'm beyond happy. I think all of them would bring something special to the modern table. That is a fantastic list. I was specifically thinking about Kidman the other day. What a world it could have been.

A combo. Leave, go elsewhere building stock, then come back. Money everytime. I am looking at you Macintyre.

Are there any characters from past promotions that you all think might have worked well in AEW, if they had been around at the time? Doring, Roadkill, and Chetti would have rocked house here. I also want to say Mr. Pogo, but maybe not. Jerry Lynn is a given. Mike Awesome in an AEW environment would've been something to see. Eddie Guerrero vs Fenix would've been off the charts. those come to mind quickly. Think about someone like Perro Aguayo Jr. The smarm off with him and MJF could be epic.

I also want to say Mr. Pogo, but maybe not. Honestly, when I think of my dream wrestlers in AEW I think about their wrestling ability rather than character work. I honestly can't think of anyone based off of a gimmick, but I'm also the guy who didn't think OC would catch on as a fan favorite. Hopefully I understood your question, if you're just talking wrestlers let me know. I'll have a list for you. Hit me with a list. I like gimmicks, so the character angle and story fit is where I originally came from when I was trying to see where Pogo the Clown (XPW) would fit, but wrestlers in general fit better in certain atmospheres.

3 bad guys down. The show is working. It should have never left free tv...so much time wasted. It may be now, as it was then, if you show up on AMW, your time is numbered. Keep on fighting viewers!

Just found out Supreme, The King of the Deathmatch, passed from a heart attack last year. Sad I hadn't known this earlier. I know his son Kano is taking the reins. RIP and may your legacy live on forever!

So after all the negativity of the episode last night (which I think was the first negative AEW show since the ppv) the young bucks have asked people to stop being negative about it on their Twitter or they will delete their Twitter again. How are these people suppose to know when a show is good or bad if when the fans are saying it’s bad they are told to stop by the evps? Kayfabe heel move? I mean, not a good move, but maybe that was the original intent?
