    I watched a couple of 1957 matches from Mr "Promotional Consideration Paid For By The Following" himself, Lord Alfred Hayes.

    Holy shit he whips ass! He has all kinds of crazy counters to every hold, throws stiff strikes, and just cranks on every submission.

    I watched WrestleMania 1 or 2 when we first had the network and have to admit I had completely forgotten Lord Alfred existed. He was so gloriously awkward I looked forward to the times between matches.

    They're gonna get a lot of shit for that, and it's deserved. That's legitimately at least 40 people close together
    maybe from fans, but Florida is basically open now so, there wont be any real fall out....assuming they are on the level about testing.

    Noah Stuff

    Nice, there's some really good stuff in those early Noah cards. Can't wait until they get up to the NOAH/NJPW feud.

    Also, man NOAH really loved those old guy comedy matches.

    I'm all abroad the Rusev train and his opinion of RDR2. Its gorgeous and the story is good, but my god, is it boring as hell to play.

    oh no ....I didnt mean the government, I mean AEW. They could easily still get in trouble if their testing regimen is full of shit.

    a local wrestler has a gimmick where he wears black shirts and says everyone wearing a black shirt is a fan of his

    it is very effective as heel heat

    Wait, who is that? Is it a 321 guy?

    How would that work with the WWE, considering the hectic shooting schedule for both shows?

    they’d write her off the show while she filmed i’m sure, they’ve done it for movie shoots

    wwe will cling to anything that will make them more mainstream relevant so i wouldn’t doubt they’d let her do it

    true, but WWE also likes to hang onto people before they go off. Cause as hard as Batwoman sounds, it is probably less hard then the WWE schedule and I wouldn't be surprised if they don't want their biggest name queer woman to leave.

    The shooting schedules for CW shows are notoriously lengthy. I don't think she'd be able to do both.

    I hope she leaves WWE for Batwoman that'd be awesome. WWE doesn't deserve her.

    She's got a better chance of leaving a legacy being Batwoman than she does as Mandy Rose's upset friend in WWE's terrible main roster women's division. But if she left to do Batwoman and turned that show around, she'd be welcomed back to the main roster anyway.

    For the record, Mandy and Sonya have been in the best storyline on Smackdown. And that’s not by WWE standards; it’s been a legitimately entertaining story.

    From the Observer:
    “Samoa Joe is still not cleared to return, however he is also now considered the permanent replacement for Lawler as an announcer. What that means if/when he is cleared is that he may have the role where he announces and they can shoot angles for him to wrestle using that (since those kind of angles usually do well).”

    I am more than down for Samoa Joe as wrestler/commentator and never having to hear Lawler again.

    This is easily one of my favorite matches from last year. Red's influence on wrestling has gone so underappreciated for years and it's a shame.
