#NowPlaying I haven't played this in about 20 years and that fact is quietly horrifying. It's a clone of a game I don't particularly like (Final Fantasy X- sorry but it didn't work for me) but hopefully the vibes and atmosphere have held up?

I wrote a short thing about PAC and his ascent in/influence upon wrestling, which is something he’ll be remembered within as one of the greatest ever. torturerackandhoney.com/on-pac-wrest...

The PAC match that’s really stuck in my brain today is the Orange Cassidy Revolution 2020 match. His ultra serious character was such a perfect contrast to Orange, and his willingness to do that match showed both how generous he was as a performer and how much he *got* wrestling.

Hearing our regional accent on TV was always something I never got used to (in a good way), and seeing his name I knew it was going to be a brilliant match every time, and it was. This doesn't feel real. 💔

PAC was one of the greatest high-flyers of all time, one of the greatest technicians I've ever seen, an unbelievable athlete, and someone who could wrestle as tough and gritty as anyone. Could talk, had great presence. He made you want to believe. He was a special talent.

The reason that PAC resonated so much with me: I'm from rural-ish north-east England, and as a general rule we don't have many famous people, and we get lumped in with Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. As a result, I found the cultural touchstones cringe and buffoonish- Ant & Dec, Sarah Millican, that awful 1/

#OnThisDay in 1975: Stan Hansen wrestled his first match in Japan. At Korakuen Hall, the 26-year-old teamed with Bobby Jaggers, losing to The Destroyer & Anton Geesink when Geesink submitted Hansen. Japan would define Hansen's career.

I've worked places where one single person can ruin the entire vibe of the job...and Punk was that man for AEW. You can't drop a narcissist into a place that thrives on altruism and friendship.

Sorry Fluddy Baby but churning out slop ain't the way to advertise a big anniversary show. Shame because I probably would've gone to this otherwise.

Dory Funk Jr was truly, truly great. One of the elite World Champions of all time. It is incredible how amazing Terry Funk had to be to not go down as "Dory's little brother." There will never really be wrestlers like either of them again.

And the people comparing Punk to Terry Funk don't realize that Terry Funk was a selfless, endearing, sweetheart of a man who put all of his effort into making others look good. Phil is just a guy who looks out for himself (and others when it's convenient).

Been thinking about Comedy in Pro Wrestling, both good and bad, lately so thought I'd ask the question: What do you think is the most legitimately funny moment in wrestling? My vote is for Chuck Taylor trying to drown Archibald Peck. 🤼

My top 5 Genichiro Tenryu matches are probably not yours, and that's OK! I'm making a little 8-page zine about him with some match recommendations- like what the staff at the video store would put on the shelves next to their favourite movies, or like they do at the record stores sometimes.
