I assume Idrinq is apple flavored. #AEWDynamite

In case you don't know what apartment wrestling is, here's a piece I wrote on it last year. 🤼 #AEWDynamite open.substack.com/pub/djdavidj...

APARTMENT WRESTLING!!!!! #AEWDynamite

I believe Dick Surgeon was the second Darren on Bewitched. #AEWDynamite

Oh no he didn't. 🤼

This entrance immediately makes this a 5 star match. #AEWDynamite

Luchasaurus was told he was teaming with the Cleaner so he came out with a vacuum. #AEWDynamite

London Lightning did it in last month’s @mysterywrestling.bsky.social ! “The average person has… (hand gesture) six or seven jobs in their life” Mansoor did it while counting punches on the turnbuckle a few Collisions ago I wish my brain was different and I didn’t remember these.

Did Callis pronounce it Rancho Cuckamonga? #AEWDynamite

Al Gore invented New Japan World. 🤼

AEW needs to let the cameraman get on the apron during promos like they did in World Class. 🤼

The first wrestler to do the 6-7 deal in a promo is going to be a hero to anyone under 14. 😂 🤼

Kids in the crowd doing 6-7. 😂😂 #AEWDynamite

Bob Caudle was an excellent broadcaster and I have fond memories of watching him announce wrestling. However, there's one odd thing that I'll always remember and that's how he often held the microphone very gingerly like it had been in a fire for several minutes and he was afraid to get burned. 🤼

I haven't watched the French New Wave cinema classic Breathless in decades. I'll remedy that soon. Anywho, Richard Linklater has made a film about Jean-Luc Godard making Breathless. Here's my Letterboxd review. boxd.it/bKcefZ

Stevie Richards on a wrestling podcast is like if you did a podcast on great moments in cinema history, and instead of Martin Scorsese, you interview a guy who picked him up at the airport. 🤼

Not a lot of people outside of WWE fans know Tegan Nox/Nixon Newell and almost no one is familiar with Miranda Alize. After tonight's AEW Collision, more people will know Hyan & Maya than them as I would imagine #wrestlesky is gonna give this team that stepped up a lot of love tonight.

Dave Meltzer did a book review of Diary of Anne Frank and gave it two stars. He had originally given it five stars, but that was when he mistakenly thought it was called Diary of Frank. 🤼

What?!?! Dude. Patton Oswalt is a gem of a human being, and wasn't threatening to do it himself. Man..... Come on guys.

I think what annoys people about Metzer's ratings on women's matches is not a rating on a specific match, as people will have diverse opinions, but that he has a pattern of rating women's matches lower than the general consensus.

The moment I knew Dave Meltzer had lost the plot was when right before AEW debuted and he repeatedly said AEW shouldn't put Orange Cassidy on tv. I felt he was wrong and that Orange would get over huge. Guess what happened. Since then I haven't put any stock in his opinions.

Do not be telling me that that buffoon Meltzer rated the typically bloated mens B&G match higher than the exciting and perfectly-paced women's one.

While both were good matches, I thought the women's match was better, including match layout. 🤼

Every woman who competed in AEW Blood and Guts is approximately 1000x tougher than me.

As great as everything was, the match of the night for me was the women's Blood and Guts. #AEWDynamite

Eddie walking around hitting himself in the head with a chair killed me. 😂 This episode is so 70's. #AEWDynamite

There were points in this match where I felt I was watching a heavy blood match from 1982. And I mean that as a compliment. That was a Memphis, Mid-South or NWA match for sure. 🤼

Tommy Rich is in this match? 🤼

I assume TBS has a standards and practices department. They should all probably take the night off. 🤼

That's a fantastic outfit design. 🤼

If he ends up staying in AEW (which is doubtful) I absolutely wouldn't buy a PPV he was featured on. It's time for him to go.

When Mercedes Mone was Sasha Banks in WWE, if anyone said anything remotely negative about her, crazies would come out of the woodwork to attack. Now that's she's in AEW, crazies make a lot of negative comments about her. I believe these are the same crazies.

Nia Jax being at 13, ahead of Stat and other women in AEW and WWE, shows this list is mostly trash. (although I do agree with the top two)

At this point, it's the young, energized candidates, and the democratic socialists I'm keeping my investment in. Yeah, I'm still here for harm reduction too. But I cannot sit here and watch people cling to their own power with no risk unto themselves, at the expense of everyone, for nothing.

🤼

Thanksgiving! It's that one time of the year that we all Conglomerate with the people we love – and with the people who aren't as easy to love. Join the AEW family for Thanksgiving Eve #AEWDynamite on TBS and Thanksgiving Day #AEWCollision on TNT, both streaming on HBO Max!

They think wrestling fans would go to a boxing movie judging by the gazillion times I saw an ad for it on HBO during AEW Collision.

If you're wondering who Nixon Newell is, she was known as Tegan Nox in WWE. If you don't know who Tegan Nox is, she was one of the people you never played as the last time you owned a WWE game. 🤼

Willow jobbed for the worst women's wrestler on the planet & now she's a superstar.

The Miranda and Nixon situation is like if you went on a job interview, did ok but not great, and the company gave you a second interview to see if you could impress them, then you blow off the second interview. End result is that you would never get another chance with that company. 🤼

Meltzer said ratings have been falling the last two months and that the boom is over. Hmm. What happened two months ago? Oh, yeah, Nielsen changed the way they calculate viewership. But let's not let facts get in the way of faulty analysis. 🤼

Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein is now on Netflix. Here's my Letterboxd review. boxd.it/bDpPP9

"You should have known we were going to fire you a year into the future" is not an acceptable excuse for WWE's horrible actions. 🤼

WWE is expected to generate $4.7 billion in revenue in FY 2025. But now-released WWE wrestler Ridge Holland needs a GoFundMe? Absolutely disgusting. Even worse: Chelsea Green posted this on X, then had to delete. The top two donations (after her) are from AEW's Nick Jackson & Kyle Fletcher too.

AEW is the best at trolling Dave and Bryan.

Mercedes gear game has been fire af. #AEWDynamite

"Tony shit! Tony shit!" Well, if you had been at the AEW comedy show in St, you would have heard Tony talk all about his shit. Literally. #AEWDynamite

I'm sure these will make your night better 😁

I'm a teenage lobotomy. Here's my Letterboxd review of Sucker Punch. boxd.it/bBKF55

Someone please get started on his presidential campaign.
