He was only on-screen for 20 seconds! Also, WWE didn't upload this, so they didn't consider this segment relevant enough to put on YouTube as a highlight. Bloody hell...if getting called to SmackDown for this is why Nakamura couldn't even attended Tanahashi's retirement, WWE can go fuck themselves.

British Nationalism will cite fighting against Nazi Germany as the prime example of who Britain is, but the rest of history, right to the present, shows that when Britain isn't committing the evil itself, it'll happily sit back & watch it happen with, at most, an impotent finger wag in opposition.

(Listening to a podcast) American Guy on studying abroad in Italy: "The way of life I experienced there...minus the racism...really kind of lines up with how I want to see the world and how I want the community around me to feel." ...yeah...that's Europe, alright...

With WrestleMania in 2027 being in Saudi Arabia, does that mean the 2027 WWE Hall of Fame Ceremony is going to be done there too? Ouch, if so.

I get New Japan Fans (Who Aren't Also AEW Fans) who are frustrated by the NJ/AEW Relationship (especially with the perception of it not being helped by coming at the same time as a downturn for NJPW) but imagining a world where they were working with WWE instead is...oof...

Do you reckon that there Diehard Jaguars or Fulham Fans who are also Hardcore WWE Stans who are driven absolutely insane by the fact Tony Khan is involved with their team/club?

They aren't my team and not saying it's in any way likely but I would love the Jacksonville Jaguars to win the Super Bowl at some point soon because I am pretty certain Tony Khan wouldn't pass up the opportunity to plug AEW in the celebrations and I think that would be really funny. 🤼

Your Grandparents doing a video call with you:

The new Black Mirror episode was pretty weird

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

The funny thing is that if you actually want a big media profile, you get out of wrestling and into the movies. That's where WWE is losing their top guys to repeatedly. The temptation of WWE is a) wrestlers make bad choices all the time and b) nostalgia at the idea of doing WWE-specific things.

At least we don’t live in a world of staggering class disparity in which a tech magnate attempts to quash left-wing sentiment using sexualized artificial intelligence!

"Anti-AI People torture NPCs in video games" is a wild claim but also I guarantee you AI Evangelists would not argue for the functional personhood of AI were it able or ever to reach the level in sci-fi stories. They will still desire ownership & control. They are not Pro-AI for morality reasons.

CW: Non-consensual AI-Edited Photo If legislation is passed on this issue, I hope they don't let AI Companies off the hook and have the prompters be the only ones legally liable for the creation of non-consensual sexualised images. They shouldn't be allowed to wash their hands of this behaviour.

That dastardly Mercedes Moné flexing her creative control to put over a bunch of people in incredible matches. She must be stopped!

Imagine not thinking Mercedes Moné isn't one of the best doing it atm and in the conversation for one of the best to ever do it. Legit saw some people try to say she should be one "Worst of 2025" Lists. If you understand wrestling that little, you shouldn't be watching it.

🤼‍♂️ #AEWDynamite Mina:

TERF Opposition to Repeal the Eighth should have silenced any claims they were "Pro-Women" 7 years ago. TERFs harassed Irish Pro-Choice Feminist Groups for not being transphobic and in open forums were hoping the referendum would fail while spewing Anti-Irish comments.

Saying "Some TERFs made their own awards called "TERFies" & voted Donald Trump "Best Politician (Non-UK)"" would get you accused by "Reasonable Moderates" of making up stuff to smear their side but they actually did it. They had even more Awards than this & they get more & more unhinged.

Pikachu & Eevee vibing to Hechicero (who is dressed as Machamp)'s theme as he makes his entrance to face Místico (who was dressed as Hawlucha)'s Team at Pokémon x CMLL is legit a Top 10 Wrestling Moment of 2025 for me. 🤼‍♂️ (Soberano Jr. dressed as Gengar, Kira as Togepi, & La Catalina as Sylveon too)

Please allow me to be engagement baity for a minute (because I want to be reminded of cool stuff) and ask: What were your favourite #AEW Moments of 2025 (they could still deliver some before it's over, mind you)? 🤼

Thank fuck NFC East has been trash this year so there wasn't more riding on that cause that was stressful as hell even with just a shot at 2nd Seed on the line. Go Birds! #PHIvsBUF

Go Birds! 🦅 Eitlígí a Iolair Eitlígí #FlyEaglesFly #PHIvsBUF

"The Doctor was the Boy's Father. He has two dads." is also a perfectly acceptable answer to this riddle.

Other than "They are waiting until they next redesign the belts so the name on the belt reflects the change.", I really don't think there's any reason AEW shouldn't have made the addition of "Men's" to the World and Tag Titles (plus ROH Titles) official already. 🤼‍♂️

It was kind of Chris Jericho to get progressively more rubbish in AEW, so I genuinely haven't seen much sadness at the idea that he definitely is going back to WWE.

Getting a 2026 #AEW Wish in early: Brodido stay buds and don't breakup to feud. They can have a match but they have to hug at the end. Let wrestlers have friends who just stay their friends forever! 🤼‍♂️

I do enjoy that realistically Andrade could return to AEW, not part of DCF, and explain it away by just saying "I hadn't officially signed, then I saw him have 3 guys in the C2 Semi Finals and the guy with a bad leg and a chipped tooth left with the title. I am better off without him." 🤼‍♂️

I forget who it was (I think it was a journalist) but someone said that while Bluesky engagement was less impressive, they had found the type of engagement was actually more desirable because Bluesky likes & Reposts actually translated to people reading it & then paying a subscription fee for more.

My issue with MJF isn't to do with his talent or ability but that I think getting so heavily glazed so early in his career about his heel promos and being a welcome throwback to true heels caused that part of his work to stay stagnant and also become the stuff he returned to most.

Back in 2014, I thought Moxley was the best member of the Shield and should have the best career of the three after their split. Didn't know that he'd need to get the hell out of WWE to do it but that take is even more correct in 2025.

Just remember that Mania 40 (2024) was the last WWE Show I actually watched & was probably weird to bow out on a "good" show, but it just was very clear WWE wasn't "for me". Although, that Cody Speech to close the night did suck. "Guys, I know I'm the Champ but let's all hear it for Triple H!"

Watching THE GREEN KNIGHT again

🤼 #AEW Ended up going 16-14 on my C2 Predictions, with only 1 correct Point Tally Prediction (Takeshita with 13 points). Still on to be right about Takeshita being crowned Champ but thought he'd meet Okada in the Final, not SF. Credit @indecisivenatalie.bsky.social for the cool prediction tables.

Wait what is she evem blaming AEW (a company she hasn't been with since April) for here? This is genuinely concerning behaviour and anyone encouraging this because it's Anti-AEW Content for the Content Mill should be ashamed. I hope she gets some help to deal with the underlying issues here.

It's no "Blair Christmas Card where it looks like Cherie is holding back a drunk Tony from attacking you in the pub" PM Christmas Photo.

Merry Christmas everyone. I have to share this. Toni Storm is an incredible human being. She found out my neighbors kids are huge fans of hers and she recorded this video for them. She’s unhinged and she’s THE BEST! 😂

Getting teary-eyed at Michael Caine's Scrooge receiving the scarf from Beaker. It's a take barely worth saying at this point but he really did knock it out of the park and then some with his performance in Muppet Christmas Carol.

How do you think some of the other actors to have played Bob Cratchit feel about the fact that Kermit the Frog clears them all? Like does that bug Richard E Grant for example?

Merry Christmas

Can't be the only one for who Muppet Christmas Carol was the first version of the story they saw as a kid which led them to assume that all other adaptations had cut Robert Marley from the story for an embarrassingly long time.

Fun Fact: Bean Bunny was a favourite Muppet of Michael Caine, and he really enjoyed throwing a wreath at him.

I'm one of the Pigeons who sing "There goes Mr. Skinflint" because I always mishear it as "There goes Mr. Skinflute", which is a very different sort of insult.

All I want for Christmas is to know what your favourite Muppet (including Muppets-adjacent stuff like Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock) song is.

Hope you all have a peaceful Christmas if you are celebrating and that the stresses of the season go by smoothly.

i had to drop what i was doing to make this
