What day of the week do you think it'll land on?
Maybe it's just RoH getting a sneaky televised Thursday slot, instead of HonorClub?

Yeah, it kinda suits all three promotions to just take the big bag of cash, doesn't it?

WWE has always wanted a solid presence in Japan, and TNA would probably just be fun for them to burn to the ground, because they could already have their pick of anyone on that roster if they wanted.

Four tiers of developmental sounds like a very WWE thing to do, too. (OVW > TNA > NXT > WWE)

So could that mean TNA, NOAH and Marigold possibly agreed to deals with a similar caveat attached?

Thanks for going above and beyond, as usual!

Is the audio borked on this, or is it just me?

KK is really going for a solid "how shite can I become?" speedrun attempt.

I'd be totally on board if they did something like Lucha Underground did and had live bands perform as intermission, or if BABYMETAL were going to do a special entrance theme for someone.

I think it sucks mainly because they're hyping up the fact they'll be playing a BABYMETAL mp3 during PPV promo spots, like its going to make a huge difference to the event or something lmao

"official PPV theme song" is such a nonsense corporate idea.

PCPartPicker can filter for card length (in millimeters as opposed to inches, but still) and that should help with narrowing down your choices. Most GPUs have some variant that's shorter in length, but they might just charge a bit of a premium for it.

"present"

  • not "future"
  • usually a gift of some sort
    • announcements could be gifts
      • Lucha Bros are WWE-bound

I look forward to the dirtsheets confirming his days in AEW are now officially numbered.

 

I'm always around a month+ behind with NJPW content, because they just release too much to keep up!

I've finally reached the Best of Super Jr. 30 (I'm on May 16/Day 4 right now) but I'm wondering if anyone can tell me which matches are worth watching and which are perfectly skippable on my todo list, because I'm aiming to be up to date for Forbidden Door II and I know I've a lot to get through in the next week!

I know I could probably just skip to the Finals Night of BOSJ, but what can I say, I'm a bit of a completionist.

Events I still have to watch:

  • May 17: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 5
  • May 18: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 6
  • May 19: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 7
  • May 21: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 8
  • May 21: Resurgence
  • May 23: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 9
  • May 24: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 10
  • May 26: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 11
  • May 28: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 12
  • Jun 04: Dominion
  • Jun 09: All Together Again
  • Jun 10: New Japan Road - Road To Strong
  • Jun 17: New Japan Road - Road To Strong
  • Jun 18: New Japan Road - Road To Strong
  • Jun 25: AEW X NJPW: Forbidden Door II
