Started watching that Memphis TV archive. Second episode, Nov 18 1978, with absolutely no warning, fanfare or introduction, some 44 years into his wrestling career, FUCKIN’ LOU THESZ is just randomly wrestling in the studio!!

Watch this today… youtu.be/JuITY9Jx1js?...

My manager watched The Iron Claw over Christmas, so as the office wrestling fan, I’ve just had a very interesting conversation. 😅

Why does the guy who wanted to break AEW down and rebuild it in his own image six months ago now just do commentary on the B show?

It’s Sunday, you’re not doing anything today, watch this. youtu.be/Ne5f7-Z0wZo?...

This is how they played The First of Us

This lady looks like she rolled a 1 on a dexterity check for putting on pants

Meanwhile, over on Mastodon: mastodon.social/@mhoye/11586...

Herald of Darkness.

🤼🥋🥊Today in blast from the past regional MMA - the time in 2001 or 2003 Johnathan Ivey decided to try a shoot People's Elbow on Joe Nameth. It kinda worked!! (These two fought twice to the same result so I'm not sure which fight it is.)

Started Clash of the Comics. I have seen so many worse matches than Nina Samuels vs Maisie Adam.

Halfway through the first episode of the Taskmaster New Year thing. How many different signers did Rose have? I’ve spotted three in the tasks and two in the studio segments already.

The AEW audience is not aching for him to return and won't any time soon. He's 55 years old. This is to take nothing away from the value he DID provide AEW for years, both as a name star and a locker room guy and all that. But he's been gone nine months and it has hurt nothing, really.

I love the idea that a rise of 3.99% rather than 4% will have some sort of psychological effect. People do actually see the amount of money that comes out of their bank account, you know. People are not going to look at £146.55 going out and find it so much more mentally tolerable than £146.56.

Dude, fuck off.

BENOIT BLANC: an' you suh, you uh, you had no ANIMUHS with uh the snake mistuh COILY, none of any kind you might say? Q*BERT: !@#$%? BLANC: suh we do not say that anymore

This shot just happened in the actual movie I'm watching. Incredible. The most I have laughed in years.

Hypnotized by a completely level Rick Steiner plummeting to the mat

This is what we call "Facebook weather" because it's too scared to go to London, for zero logical reason.

I’m glad this move got pulled out of the mothballs (Jacky probably isn’t though)

if you're still driving a tesla, give your head a wobble

I like Creeper quite a lot, but why did their new (2025) album have to be a non-stop, sub-Meat Loaf, horror-themed stadium rock pastiche? Where’s the Misery, Suzanne, All My Friends, Be My End, Black Mass or I Choose To Live of this album?

Sometimes all you can do is make the world 0.0000000000001% less awful by being a good person and it feels very meaningless but it’s also the only thing that really matters

“The original Dynamite announce team rides again!” Marvez?!?! Oh no.

This needs to be seen… www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/1...

I’ve had a full set of PRIDE for some time, but have only ever watched the first one. My plan is to get through them this year. PRIDE 2 starts with a VERY long fight and Quadros and Rutten just fucking BURY it on comms, complete with Bas singing and doing Tony Montana impressions to amuse himself.

This guy here is dead 👇

heard the RAM shortage is getting bad so I've been trying to stock up🤞

My PlayStation THREE just woke up and asked for an update!! A great side effect is I’ve just found out the £5 DualShock SixAxis I got in Japan works. 😄 Official PS3 controllers in the UK can be rare and expensive, so finding an immaculate white one for the price of lunch was a no-brainer.

Seeing this a lot. Echoing it without the niceness. If you drink & drive you're a fucking loser. A MASSIVE fucking loser. If you willingly put people at risk, you're pathetic. Actual dog shit. Don't be a cunt. Call a taxi. Have a designated sober driver. There's NO reason to drink & drive.

MJF’s new Triple-B seems to contain no Burberry. I guess it’s just Big Brown Belt.

BBC 1 looks like a Cody Rhodes WrestleMania entrance.

I think I’ll be ringing in the new year with a succession of loud action movies as counter-programming to downstairs’ loud musical revue.

The final day

Where can one get good Dango in London? The Japanese sweet, not the fella who used to tag with Tyler Breeze.

Is this just a Tugboat/Typhoon repaint?
