Terry!

So the WWE huge show rumours at Principality Stadium in Cardiff in August are indeed true. I've asked and been told they are looking to announce something in the next few weeks.

@davidbix.bsky.social remind me what Hellwig said about Heenan and Davey Boy that looked real bad if you'd be so kind.

Pringle III, Link, Rude go for a stroll.

Hey! So, I did a little thing & made a community article at Buzzfeed to see if I could make more of a splash. I created a newbie-friendly intro to AEW. If you are so inclined, feel free to go to there & give a little like, comment, even share if you'd like! www.buzzfeed.com/coreyomichae...

Brody King is gaining momentum, and may be fully catching the zeitgeist. If and when, strap the rocket to him and change plans.

The Record Store Day 2026 UK list has quite a lot of interesting items I want. Looks like I'll be queuing from 4.30am again come April. Top of the list is Pink Floyd's 1975 LA show bootleg, which now isn't a bootleg. Steve Wilson has remixed and remastered it, so I expect it will sound sublime.

The story of Frank Gotch going to Alaska in 1901 and beating every single person who challenged him and leaving with $35,000 ($1.35 million) in gold. A total bad ass.

The Ring Magazine archives are brilliant. I am starting to read from "Milos to Londos - The Progress of Wrestling Through the Ages" multi part history of Pro Wrestling written from November 1932 by A. D. Phillips who was 82 and was around when William Muldoon was in his prime.

"Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers

"Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers 1952

Al Hayes 1964

As an artist sees Jim Londos. 1935.

Bull Nakano and a fan.

RIP Kim Wood, by the way. The man who understood pro wrestling better than most people in the wrestling business despite not being in the business or even necessarily being a wrestling fan.

Royal Rumble announcement video but all the participants are Brian Butterfield #RoyalRumble #WWE @brianbutterfield.bsky.social

Roxy Music - To Turn You On Bryan Ferry is peak Bryan Ferry in this wonderful song. Avalon is in my top 50 albums of all time.

One of my mum's favourites. Hope they can have a glass of wine together up there. RIP.

Brandon Baxter kinda reminded me of Tom Petty.

Pro Wrestling

It's only 11am and Gordon is already on the red wine.

is davis meltzer another brother? like the juggler?

My little sphynx cat has been poorly these last few days. He's been to the vet, now I have to remortgage. I hope he gets better this weekend. He's the best.

#NowPlaying Oneohtrix Point Never R Plus Seven 2013

It sure was Gypsy Joe.

The Funks with Verne Gagne and Vincent J. McMahon at the NWA Convention in 1983.

Jack Tunney on the take in 1983.

A 1504 globe, possibly created by Leonardo da Vinci, depicts the New World as only South America, excluding North America. Seemed better then.

Terry Funk Suplexing a small Japanese child in to the ocean.

Who was considered the most "one of the boys" females in pro wrestling post 1980? I am guessing either Sherri or Jacqueline / Miss Texas.

Hogan in San'ya, Tokyo in 1983.

Lies.

The lads.

#NowPlaying Insides Euphoria (1993) Where has this album been all my life?! Getting some Bark Psychosis and early Björk vibes from this.

Alistair Black and now Alaina Black. When we get Al Black I'll be convinced it's a rib at this point.

I can't fathom how much TNA shit the bed. Actually I can. They put more effort into putting over "celebs" than their own talent. Total garbage.

Wrestling Observer has some audio shows that never ever get acknowledged by Dave or Bryan, like ever. Poor Karl, Les etc

Weird memory unlocked. I was a paperboy at the time Princess Diana died. Delivering papers saying she was critically injured being fully aware she passed away. Folks on their doorstep waiting for the paper, with some in floods of tears. A strange time indeed. She really was an obsession to many.

I've been listening to a ton of Thin Lizzy lately. I've gone in chronological from their debut onwards and just reached 1977 after 6 albums(?). I'm massively familiar with them anyway, but listening again has brought me a new found appreciation. Phil Lynott is in my top 10 front men of all time.

Forgot I said to Dave Meltzer I'd take him to a UK football game in August before All In. I want to take him to The Den to watch Millwall I think, just so I can hear his takes in the following weeks WON.

Dr. Mike Lano with Lou Thesz in 1973 Lano was Venom to Dave Meltzer's Spiderman.

If AEW want a new "hype man" to replace Alex Abrahantes that's the same size as some of the men he's hyping, they've got this lad.

I can say with 100% certainty that if I ever post any Debbie Malenko content on X, Dave Meltzer will retweet it. 🎵 Katy Perry - The One That Got Away 🎶

Went back to work today. I'm glad I did as now not going to be mega dreading it on Sunday evening.

My 2025 Last.FM stats 18,070 tracks played / average of 49 tracks a day 3,234 artists / bands played 3rd most played year since 2008.

Watched K-PAX the other day. Well, I walked in on my wife watching it. Such a good movie.

Moxley vs. Fletcher saved my modern fandom. So good. *****+
