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.

If you didn't watch NXT Takeover 36 you need to at least watch WALTER vs Ilja Dragunov for the NXT UK Title. This was incredible and a MOTYC. My words can't do it justice. Go see it. NOW!

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

Here are a few matches for your viewing pleasure if you like women's wrestling. Some are old and some are sort of new or at least newish.

Sareee vs Takumi Iroha from 5-27-18

Sareee vs Yoshiko from 9-14-20. This match might be clipped. I can't remember if it is or not.

Mayu Iwatani vs Takumi Iroha from 9-9-18

Meiko Satomura vs Akira Hokuto from 4-29-01. This one might be clipped too.

Devil Masami vs Meiko Satomura from 9-15-20. This might be clipped as well.

Omega is a HUGE and I mean HUGE anime nerd. He's also an avid gamer, speaks fluent Japanese, and spent almost a decade in Japan. He is who he is ... which is also the best wrestler on the planet.

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 think if you watch Okada/Omega, party_animal, your view of Omega will change in that you'll see how amazing he is ... yes he's still a fancy boy ... but holy crap if he's not the best since Benoit.

 

So excited for AEW at Arthur Ashe. Have great seats. Even better seats for GCW. So close I wonder if I'll get hit with light tube wreckage lol.

Nah, the best thing going in wrestling right now is Jurassic Express. The first time I saw Luchasaurus I was like, nah this can't be a thing. Then his tag partners are some kid named Jungle Boy and this little, tiny 98-lber Marco Stunt... they were up against Santana & Ortiz with some other dude and it was the craziest, most fun match I'd seen in a while. Hooked me on AEW right there.

And that match last Friday of Jurassic Express vs. the Luchabros was the best tag team match I've seen in a decade.

      Potential changes to playoff seeding

      Yeah. As a wild card team. Washington won the division at 10-6.

      no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.

      Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
