There are so many wrestling companies and nothing good enough to watch a full episode. I'm tried watching YouTube shows such as MLW and NWA, AEW clibs or highlights, TNA, and I can't watch anything.

Back in 2008-09 I had a very strong passion for Thursday nights to watch TNA Impact, I was excited and waited for Thursday to watch. For years now I can't watch through a full entire wrestling episode from any company at all. Are all televised companies bad or has wrestling itself gotten awful? Do wrestlers not know how to perform compared to wrestlers 20 years ago?

This short film that was meant to serve as the pilot for a sitcom that was never produced.

I can't imagine why this wasn't put straight into production immediately lol

You can watch OVW episodes for free on Fite Tv. I checked out a few episodes after watching the documentary and it reminded me a little of ROH before they were purchased by AEW

... and I would like to have you there. It's gonna be fun, I promise!

What are your thoughts about "Main Event" Jey Uso? I'm sold on the guy and wouldn't be mad if he were the one to dethrone Roman... but I don't think it's super likely.

"The Rick" has been battling cancer for a while now and apparently passed away a few days ago. I remember reading the original version of Online Onslaught on WrestleLine when I was in high school to keep up with the dirt sheets.

Here's one of those old columns, courtesy archive.org.

What in the 2K Universe mode is this?

The Bastard PAC is back, and he will be on the side of the Blackpool Combat Club and Don Callis to get revenge on Kenny Omega for breaking his nose.

And The Elite will reunite with Kota Ibushi to reform The Golden Elite!

He passed away in his sleep at only 55 years old.

He was also known as Tank as part of the Truth Commission and Bruiser Mastino in ECW. Watching back some of his matches, it is clear he was pretty good and deserved better than the stupid Mantaur gimmick.

Here's what is currently scheduled for tonight's WWE Monday Night Raw from Buffalo, New York (at least until someone makes last-minute changes):

• Becky Lynch vs. Zoey Stark
• Drew McIntyre & Matt Riddle vs. Imperium
• Tommaso Ciampa vs. The Miz No Disqualifications
• Cody Rhodes says things about Brock Lesnar
• Ricochet and Logan Paul face-to-face confrontation
• Alpha Academy holds a graduation ceremony for Maxxine Dupri

What are your thoughts going into tonight's show?

I'm pretty stoked about this match tonight and (probably unrealistically) hope that Joe gets the win to face Starks in the finals.

Other matches announced for tonight:

• Ricky Starks vs. Powerhouse Hobbs (Men's Owen Tournament Semi-Finals)
• Willow Nightingale vs. Athena (Women's Owen Tournament Semi-Finals)
• FTR vs. Juice Robinson & Jay White (Tag Title eliminator)

Edit: Apparently Willow is nursing injuries from NJPW Independence Day, so her match with Athena has been rescheduled for this Friday's Rampage.

This is definitely worth the watch.

Weird that they haven't announced MJF/Cole's opponents or shown an actual bracket. Kenny vs. Yuta should be good!

Dave said the abrupt turn by Shayna Baszler at MITB was always the plan and was something Ronda specifically wanted, but it was delayed because of Ronda's injury. Now the story has to be rushed because Ronda also gave them a "hard out" for when she will be done.

This is a couple years old but felt appropriate to post this weekend. Rest in peace, Droz. I wonder where his career (and D'Lo's) would have gone had the accident not happened.

• Jon Moxley vs. Tomohiro Ishii
• Hung Bucks in trios action
• Tornado Tag Team Match: Le Sex Gods vs. Sting & Darby Allin
• Owen Hart Women's Tournament: Britt Baker vs. Ruby Soho

• Blind Eliminator Tag Team Tournament bracket reveal

Looks like a solid episode!

Impact has been booking really really well for the past couple years. So awesome to see then gaining momentum.

Supposedly Togi Makabe and Hiroshi freaking Tanahashi did this when they were in college.
