Mark Wyatt, great dude. He's been gone for a while now. Got married on a game day. Scot, JPF, Mark, Alv, Bastet, and a bunch of others used to post in the same circles I did. Most of them aren't posting at all now. I started on the original Panthers board when I was 18 and migrated through several others. I've had this name on every board I've been on. I'm glad this place is still here. I have gone in and out from posting for years but always look here for news/discussion. I've been surprised it has lasted as long as it has. Most of these things have died.

Trading out of the first lost some of the appeal with the inclusion of fifth year options. Only thing that mitigates it is a future first.

Get well soon Mr. Scot. Definitely thinking of you brother.

This dude ripping on Billy Gunn and his sons is one of the funniest things I've seen involved in wrestling in quite some time.

How many games now have we had 12 men on the field penalties? Stupid stuff like that and the wasted timeouts are how coaching staff turnover happens.

Lol. The pitch for Adam Cole to stay and go up to the main roster included turning Keith Lee heel, brining up Adam Cole to be his manager, and changing Adam Cole's name so he isn't confused for Michael Cole. Why the hell is Brother Love in charge of the pencil for WWE?

CM Punk's ode to Hitman vs 123 Kid was cool. Adam Cole presents like a mega star, just like when i first saw him wrestling for PWG. I think as a performer, he's light-years ahead of Omega. And Danielson will get a huge reaction anywhere, I think he's the best in ring performer in the last 20 years.

WWE won't die. They're still extremely profitable. They may suck and will probably continue to suck with Brother Love writing the shows. But they'll still contour to make money hand over fist. Too large and too many revenue streams.

The one thing I've seen that I really like with AEW is Tommy End's new character direction. The wendigo mask is really nice. I hope they don't straddle him with a stable. They have enough already. Let him be on his own.

When they get Danielson, then they'll have the best wrestler in the planet. Omega's in ring style is ridiculous to me. I'm not a fan of him at all. He prances around the ring. It looks really goofy.

I enjoy watching Walter smack people around. I saw this the other day. It was just as brutal as their last match.

Glad they AEW is able to generate buzz. I would start watching more if it weren't so Kenny Omega-centric. Every time I've heard him with a mic, it just seems really bad. It's like he's emulating anime villains on a wrestling program. Comes across as goofy. Hopefully he picks up a few things from Punk. As William Regal would say, he's got vile and venom on the mic.

Arm strength is fine. He doesn't set his feet a lot and tends to hop around the pocket. He also doesn't step into a lot of throws. He started doing this his last year at USC. He had historically had lazy footwork.
