Oh, and another thing: Why have wrestling fans been talking about AJ Styles's kid not setting up the ring for four days? As someone who hasn't watched much: Is wrestling really THAT lame right now? I've hardly seen anyone talking about the actual wrestling happening compared to this.

Hey folks. I'm still alive. I deleted Twitter several months ago. I don't really want to go back at all. I don't know if I'll ever make another video or write anything else about wrestling but if I do it'll be something I feel very strongly about. Hope you're all doing well.

I don't remember too much about the others but I LOVE Counterparts. Some of the lyrics are silly even for Rush and it's kind of their Obligatory 90s Alternative Album but that sound fits fantastically with Rush's musicianship and the production sounds incredible. "Animate" is one of their best.

I get it, but after actually listening to them more in depth, that's such a strange place to draw the line. IMO they never fully got "bad" but even if you think they did I don't understand loving MP but disliking Signals. Out of curiosity, what do you think of Counterparts if you've heard it?

If you're mad about Joe Hendry being squashed, I don't think you understand what the point of Joe Hendry should be. It's okay, though. TNA doesn't either.

Ozzmosis is an album I always try to steer people towards when he comes up in conversation. Definitely the best of his dips into the "alternative" side of rock and metal. Perry Mason in particular is one of his strongest openers.

The fact that fans I've seen arguing about ratings, "casual fans", and "drawing money" are now complaining about WWE being "too corporate" after Wrestlemania is simultaneously hilarious and maddening. This is what you wanted. Shut the fuck up and eat your slop.

Based on what I'm hearing about both nights, not watching Wrestlemania is probably one of the best decisions I've made all year

"But they have the right to defend themselves!" There IS no defense for this. That's the thing. They put tons of WWE guys on the card and had them win most of their matches. Some people aren't gonna like that. They just aren't. Accept it.

Pro Wrestling Outsider @pwoutsider.bsky.social · 19/04/2025

I'm more disappointed by the defensiveness being shown by the Bloodsport crew over the criticism of the WWE presence on BSXIII than I am by the presence itself. You KNEW what you were doing. You KNOW why people are disappointed. Own the direction you took instead of wagging your finger.

Nothing said by anyone in WWE during Mania hype this week has been a mistake or a disaster, in their eyes. TKO wants WWE right next to UFC at the core of dudebro chud culture. This means having a figurehead telling critics to fuck off, or top stars publicly admitting to being Trump guys.

No idea how AEW is going to approach the Arena Mexico Dynamite. A straight up AEW/CMLL supershow is the most obvious route, but doing a more story driven episode could also work. Excited either way!

Is Triple H and Nick Khan's method of hyping Wrestlemania to just say stupid shit non stop all week? Every time I see a new quote from one of their interviews, it's somehow dumber than the last.

Been giving this some thought: "Struggle" I would say usually refers to wrestlers conveying the existence of or creating the illusion of difficulty and competition in wrestling "Grit" is harder to describe. It's more of a vibe of general violence, anger, danger, and harshness.

010

Pro Wrestling Outsider @pwoutsider.bsky.social · 16/04/2025

"Grit" might have been a better term to use than "struggle", though. Star Jr. vs. Zandokan Jr. could be accused of not "feeling like a struggle" because it's a high flying match, but it was gritty as hell.

Pro Wrestling Outsider @pwoutsider.bsky.social · 16/04/2025

Haven't seen any recent Dragon Gate but I don't know if I'd say that describes most current CMLL I've seen. Plenty of the rudo teams don't feel seamless at all. Maybe, like, El Sky Team matches, but I'd say those feel more like a struggle than Paul matches. Logan Paul is more like SANADA but worse

Pro Wrestling Outsider @pwoutsider.bsky.social · 15/04/2025

I feel like you have to not care about the part of pro wrestling where they actually, like, wrestle each other in order to enjoy Logan Paul matches His stuff is clean, well performed, flows seamlessly, and is totally lacking in struggle. It bears no resemblance to the wrestling I want to see.

Wrestling fans make fun of Disney Adults, but as someone who has been a part of the wrestling sphere, the theme park sphere, and, in the past, the cartoon sphere: in every respect, WWE and AEW diehards are every bit as bad as Disney Adults if not worse. You guys all bootlick billionaires.

Pro Wrestling Outsider @pwoutsider.bsky.social · 14/04/2025

Wrestling personalities have been telling you guys for years that there are a lot of wrestlers out there who don't care how big their paychecks are as long as the letters "WWE" are on it. Just how things are. And it's not exclusive to wres. This is the corporate bootlicking era of entertainment.

This is fully a me issue and I acknowledge that. And I'm all for shorter, more decisive matches. But Shibata's my boy and I want to see him kick more ass than that, especially if he's going to be going for a championship.

Pro Wrestling Outsider @pwoutsider.bsky.social · 10/04/2025

Didn't watch Dynamite last night, but hearing that Mox decisively beat Shibata in around 5 minutes on the anniversary of his match with Okada and subsequent near death experience inspired 2019 WWE levels of "oh, WHATEVER" in me

Pro Wrestling Outsider @pwoutsider.bsky.social · 08/04/2025

This is an incredibly important thing about wrestling that isn't talked about enough in general: the way wrestlers react to their losses. Believably conveying the ways in which you're upset that you lost is key to convincing me that you care about winning, which is kinda the soul of this whole thing

020

Pro Wrestling Outsider @pwoutsider.bsky.social · 07/04/2025

Not gonna lie: the best moment of Dynasty for me last night was on the pre-show. I don't think I have ever been more all in on a wrestler's presentation after such a short period of time than I am on Anthony Bowens. The Pride of Professional Wrestling? That's some ace shit.

Pro Wrestling Outsider @pwoutsider.bsky.social · 07/04/2025

This story is lousy and I'd rather see most people (except Ospreay) with the belt instead of him but he'll always be one of My Guys until I die. I lived through Gas Mask Dean Ambrose. I can live through this too.

Pro Wrestling Outsider @pwoutsider.bsky.social · 07/04/2025

The main event went off the rails big time and the ending really soured me on the whole night. The three way was good but WAY too long and that soured me too. Thought Fletcher/Briscoe, Storm/Bayne, and Ospreay/THE JET were the best matches but the trios was solid.

Pro Wrestling Outsider @pwoutsider.bsky.social · 07/04/2025

Rarely do I watch an AEW PPV and feel like I wasted my time, but man, I could've been watching so many things other than the last half of that show and I probably would have had a better time. Shame. It started pretty strong too.

When people complain about male wrestlers you see things written like "they're not pushing him right" or "the writers are ruining him." When people complain about women in wrestling it's "she doesn't deserve the spot she's in" and "she's a bad person, everyone hates her" and such. Weird! #wrestlesky

Swerve should 100% beat Mox and then face Hangman at All In, though, IMO. People who have stuck with AEW since the beginning want to see it and IMO there's a strong emotional hook to it that I find compelling. Sticking with Mox wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, but it'd piss off the diehards
