Sorry, but no show again this week. It would not be good for the voice. I'll be back next week. Enjoy Crown Jewel. Complete with female talent in their regular gear.

The Peacock deal was so good for WWE in terms of money & exposure that it's very revealing how they eventually settled on doing the bare minimum.

Lacey Lane is obviously not the biggest competitor in pro wrestling, but the AEW presentation does her a lot of favors size-wise compared to the WWE presentation which made her look so tiny. #AEWDynamite #wrestlesky

Barely any Kyle chants, let alone ALL the Kyle chants like a few months ago when Fletcher faced O'Reilly in Kent, WA. Washington State > Florida #AEWDynamite #wrestlesky

The crowd on the stage at Daily's Place looks like a ride picture on The Tower of Terror. #AEWDynamite #Disney #wrestlesky

Maxine Dupree's match with Becky wasn't good, but it was over. Maxine Dupree's skill is not WWE level, but she's over. Maxine Dupree's over because she's unique. WWE doesn't do underdog stories. Fans see she's not quite there and they root for her because she's relatable and likeable #wrestlesky

By sheer coincidence we're going to land in Nashville the same day as AEW is in town. My friends we're having Thanksgiving with want to go to wrestling with me. I swear this is not my idea (not that I'm unhappy about it). They want to see me "in (my) element". Bonus: they want T-shirts.

From the front lines of the Portland War Zone.

It's my 1-year kidney-versary. Doctors say the first transplant year is critical. I'm thankful to have reached this point. As grateful as I am to my doctors and family, I'm also grateful for my @wrestlingobserver.bsky.social family. Your support means more than you will ever know. #wrestlesky

Had dinner with Scott Walton, a great guy. His dad, Jeff, was involved in wrestling for years at The Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles, other venues and territories. #wrestlesky

We met Disney CEO Bob Iger and President of Parks and Resorts Josh D'Maro at The Disneyland Hotel. #disney #iger #disneyland #disneyparks

This is not meant to be snarky. Just results at Disney's California Adventure one random evening. My friend wore a CM Punk shirt and of the handful of people who positively acknowledged the shirt, all were young, petite brunettes probably late teens or early 20s. Punk's still got it. #wrestlesky

Happy birthday to my wife, best friend and the person who's improved my life more than anyone else by far. @thebesttripever.bsky.social. I love you, Kari.

Finally got to ride Tiana's Bayou Adventure at Disneyland. Loved it. #themepark #disneyland #disney

My throat doc doesn't want me to do a show for at least one more week. Sorry, I didn't realize the procedure was going to be so different this time. I'll keep you posted. @wrestlingobserver.bsky.social #wrestlesky

Thank goodness it didn't rain. Everyone would have had to push the Cyber Truck. At least get a vehicle with some power and intimidation. What are they going to do? Break off pieces of the CT as foreign objects?

I saw someone on one of those contrarian subreddits try to claim that Hangman Page and Kyle Fletcher weren't draws. This was right after the strong buyrate for #AEWAllOut was released. These ppl don't follow the business, they just make up bullshit while calling others liars. #wrestlesky

Anyone thinking about or planning on going to Wrestle Kingdom? NGL, I'm starting to entertain the idea... #wrestlesky @fumisaito.bsky.social @wrestlingobserver.bsky.social

Bad timing. No WOL Saturday this week. Usually I'm not allowed to speak for 48 hours after a procedure. This one was more robust, so my doctor put me on voice rest until at least Sunday. I wasn't expecting that. Sorry. @wrestlingobserver.bsky.social #wrestlesky

Dave Meltzer in the latest @wrestlingobserver.bsky.social reporting that #AEWAllOut did 135K to 140K buys is a big feather in the cap of Hangman Page and especially Kyle Fletcher. Kyle didn't wilt in the spotlight and he drew on top. Plus, the assist from Cope & Christian in Toronto. #wrestlesky

Getting yet another vocal chord procedure.

We are sensing a theme

In an era where so many wrestlers who grew up as fans take pay cuts to go to WWE/NXT, I gotta respect the former Jazmyn Nyx. Can't say what her best career move is, but she's a business woman first and doesn't have stars in her eyes about the business. Good for her. #wrestlesky

I think we all realize how good Kris Statlander is, but she doesn't get nearly enough credit for how seamlessly she reinvented her in-ring style after her knee injuries. She made the high flyer -> asskicker transition look easy in ways that only absolute legends like Jushin Thunder Liger had before.

All jokes aside, I'm seeing people celebrating just breaking into the PWI 500, people who've never been before, who bust their asses on the indies and internationally. There's no real message here, I just think it's wholesome. Congrats to everyone who finds this spotlight.

I expected MVP to take the fall at #AEWAllOut. I didn't expect him to look so strong against men who could be his sons. Nothing but respect for his career and accomplishments, but a retired wrestler and full-time manager shouldn't be that difficult for The Demand to beat. #wrestlesjy

Are you sure that's not The Michelin Man? I get nobody tests anymore, but that's ridiculous. #WrestlePalooza

Kyle Fletcher has proven himself. An incredible World Title challenge and he was more than up to the occasion. Welcome to main events, Kyle Fletcher. #AEWAllOut #wrestlesky

We are so back. #AEWAllOut #AEWDynamite

Jack Perry is back together, Luchasaurus is Luchasaurus again, but most importantly, "Tarzan Boy" by Baltimora returned! TMNT III lives! #AEWAllOut

Statlander is the first EVER to have held both the TBS and Women’s World titles. They can never take that away from her! What a woman indeed! #AEW

I don't understand why this crowd is so relatively quiet. I thought Toronto crowds were supposed to be raucous? Is that just WWE crowds? This has been a pretty solid show. I feel like the crowd doesn't reflect the quality of the show. #AEWAllOut #wrestlesky

I predicted Kris Statlander to win the title today. I didn't predict babyface Kris Statlander to win cleanly without any help from Wheeler Yuta. I guess she can still turn and join The Death Riders, but I don't see the motivation anymore. #AEWAllOut #wrestlesky

I feel like we've switched timelines and Thekla is having the rise up the card in North America people expected for Giulia. Good for Thekla #AEWAllOut #wrestlesky

MJF all timer back to back night

I can't believe Mox and Darby are stabbing with a fork! They never did that back in the day or ever in Japan or against a legendary opponent! Kids today can't work! #AEWAllOut #wrestlesky

As I'm watching the Darby/Mox coffin match, I'm wondering where the people are that say, "Every AEW match is the same,"? #AEWAllOut #wrestlesky

Takeshita and Okada were very unselfish with Mascara Dorada. No surprise Dorada took the pin, but he had a great performance. Hopefully for him, there will be follow up and a continued focus on his matches. #AEWAllOut #wrestlesky

The crowd didn't believe Riho could beat Mercedes. It was a good match, but the people were waiting for the Money Maker and the pin. #AEWAllOut #wrestlesky

You can tell Bryan Danielson is part of the booking. He keeps reinforcing stories like how Mark Briscoe wanted to get MJF in the Jay Driller since MJF invoked his brother. It definitely helps. #AEWAllOut #wrestlesky

MJF just hours removed from 1 of the best matches of the year vs. Mistico at the CMLL Anniversary show now faces Mark Briscoe at #AEWAllOut #AEW

Kingston stuff was a big underwhelming. Rare fumble.

Here's today's WOL. CMLL Aniversario, #AEWAllOut, #WWEWrestlePalooza, 1987 History, Drew McIntyre and more. Check it out. #wrestlesky

I feel sorry for whomever has to follow Cope & Christian vs FTR. #AEWAllOut #wrestlesky

My new cat Rolly likes rasslin. That's my cat! #AEWAllOut #wrestlesky

Could that opening BE anymore Canadian? Green Bastard > The Rizzler #AEWAllOut

Only twice in history have pro wrestling PPVs gone head to head on the same day. Tony Schiavone was there for Starrcade '87 as it ran up against the WWF (E) Survivor Series. 38 years later, Tony Schiavone is there again as #AEWAllOut runs against #WWEWrestlePalooza. #Respect #legend #wrestlesky
