Someone should tell @theleemoriarty.bsky.social he keeps forgetting to pull his singlet all the way up. #AEW #AEWCollision

I've always wondered what the fight is full of...jellybeans? Hamsters? What is it man, what?!

Just wanted to drop in to say your work on Deadpool and Miles is so much fun. I hope you continue to get opportunities to write fun stuff! I gotta get on that #Goobers too. HBD to you as well. Thanks for the great books.

It tasted like lies and disappointment!

OC and Switchblade is such an odd all pairing, I'm psyched for it.

What?! #Marvel comics taking place near my home city?! What is this sorcery, @gailsimone.bsky.social?! Any special connection to ol' #Buffalo?

I read issues 1 & 2 and then like nowhere had issue 3 so I'm stuck! Send me issues 3 and 4 or I'll tell everyone you guys eat paste.

Rare that I see someone list Just Friends, it's such an underrated holiday movie.

It's actually your duty to kick him in the nards just for those pants alone.

In the name of all that is holy guacamole, #KyleFletcher vs. @willospreay.bsky.social at #AEWFullGear was the bees knees. Wow.

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 24/11/2024

#AEWFullGear whoa, the camera work on the 'rana off the steps was crazy! Looked like an action movie. Way to go #AEWProductionCrew. #KyleFletcher vs. @willospreay.bsky.social right meow! @allelitewrestling.com

*on the line, darnit. Thanks autocorrect, making me look like a dingleberry. On tonight of all nights!

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 24/11/2024

Everyone had fun. I like how Paul Wight goes from fun lovin' commentary guy to "dude, I will destroy you" in 0.3 seconds.

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 24/11/2024

Hey, neato. We are off and running with #AEWFullGear with the AEW World Tag Team Championship on the like, champs Private Party take on Kings of the Black Throne, the Outrunners, and the Acclaimed. Who you got? I picked Private Party to retain at their first PPV title defense. #aew

I still don't understand how it works when you bet on something predetermined.

020

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 23/11/2024

Rankings were cool but probably a lot to keep up with as the roster expanded. I like the records, hopefully they keep those.

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 23/11/2024

The big twist for this evening....Evil Uno abandons Dark Order to become head of Hurt Syndicate. Changes name to "Ouch Industries."

000

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 23/11/2024

I just found that sub a minute ago when I googled for the pick'em illustration that one redditor posts for the PPVs. Should be a fun one.

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 22/11/2024

#AEWFullGear keeps stacking the card! International Championship on the line here. Love me some #Ricochet but I wanna see #Takeshita reign a little longer as I think there are a lot of sick matchups waiting for him.

000

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 22/11/2024

I appreciate that a lot, thank you!

000

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 22/11/2024

Hey I appreciate the response, thank you! It definitely feels like just keep trying ideas and projects until you find your way and your niche. Nitch? Neesh? Yeesh. Anyways, maybe one day ol' Hank will make it to a scrum where he can show all youse guys how it's done.

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

Hey, look at this guy here just droppin' news nuggets on a random Thursday. #AceReporter Hank Mardukas and you heard it here, well, not first but at some point! #BotchingtheElite

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

Any advice for someone trying to get into this wrestling media stuff? I think I have some decent ideas for a fun channel/podcast/blog. Something that just wants to keep it light and not take it all too seriously. Thanks.

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

Neato. I totally wanna narrate audiobooks.

#AEWDynamite that bit with Ishii chasing Jericho was great.

020

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

#AEWDynamite has been a fun one. Almost saw a live murder on TV, poor Darbs. Also, I'm not afraid to say I legitimately have no idea who this Big Boom fella is. But hey everyone seems to be having fun and that's what counts! #AceReporterHank #BotchingtheElite

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

Do you take questions from dweebs like me that kinda wanna try to get into this wrestling media stuff? I think I've got some good ideas for a fun/positive/silly/don't take yourself too seriously type of blog or channel or podcast? I just wanna discuss rasslin' sans toxicity and crack jokes and stuff

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

Da hump, da hump, da hump is in fire. I was about to be like "but it ain't even Wednesday" but it is and my brains are just purée slop at this point. #dahump

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

Someone get me a ticket! Wait, @allelitewrestling.com the season of giving is upon us. I nominate youse guys to spread the holiday cheer and send Hank to NYC for the Dynamites. #GetHanktoNYforAEW

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

I remember being so disappointed like, "Really? That's it? A crap haircut and some smudged makeup?" Because they had hyped for the last two years how he was hideously deformed from the fire. Then the poor bastard spent the next decade shaving off his frickin' eyebrows.

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

I've got The Power Fantasy #3 in the "to read" stack right now. I also liked the first issue of Tin Can Society quite a bit. A new one from Dark Horse called "FML" by Kelly Sue DeConnick dropped a week or two ago that was pretty fun. And then whatever your pal @jamesthefourth.bsky.social is up to.

020

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

Final #AEWDynamite before #AEWFullGear looks like a fun one. I must admit, I am 100% unfamiliar with this Boom AJ fella but hey he looks like he's having fun. This is Hank Mardukas from #BotchingtheElite saying "Watch AEW or get punched in the wiener!" #acereporterhank

020

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Yeah, just make stuff. I dunno why so many people wanna criticize or cut down things before they're even finished and available to see. Constructive criticism or general discussion about a project is fun but there's always a vocal crowd of weenies thinking everyone wants to hear them.

Is there any chance TNA would approve of him doing the C2?

000

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

I definitely hope it happens. It certainly feels like it's time he got a big PPV win. Him winning the TNT title also shifts some power to the "pro AEW" clan that DG is aligned with and that's good for the story. Also he's a hometown hero so yeah, get that W, Danny. #aew

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

And I think Mick wrote in book that Kevin was the best wrestler on the team.

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Yeah, this guy is fun to watch. Unbelievable the ring talent this company has. Super psyched for the C2!

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Youse two are frickin' crazy. Wish I could've been around when the planning was going on. How do you even sell that idea? "Alright so I got this idea where I go full vampire midway thru the match."

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

Man, I still can't find Spectregraph #3 anywhere! I gotta know what happens to that poor kid. Who da heck just leaves like that?!

Hank Mardukas @botchingtheelite.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

Last week I saw my neighbor going ham with his leaf blower while winds were whipping at 45mph outside. Seemed kinda counterproductive but I think he was just excited to use it.

My "Captain Insano" shirt that got sold around this time is still one of my favorite #aew shirts.
