ArnoldBooker Arnold Booker | WWE, AEW, TNA @mastodon.social

I'm here to talk about wrestling. Will post about #WWE, #AEW, #WWENXT, and even other promotions like #TNA or #NWA sometimes. My goal is to manifest the wrestling Mastodon community I want to see in the world.

Fair warning: I do live posting when I watch shows as they air in the US.

Digivoled from @JackElephant.

Mercedes Monè confirms to TMZ during an interview that she has Creative Control clause in her contract.
  • @HybridSarcasm @GeekFTW maybe another way to look at it is that she doesn't trust the AEW machine to book her right, so she needs to protect herself with creative control. But to be honest I think most wrestlers would get creative control if they could.

  • Luchablog's latest blog post explaining the Rush/CMLL situation + Lucha Bros getting booked for Forbidden Door
  • @Neon_Carnivore @GeekFTW I feel like the Toni and Mina feud is the only FD specific type match that actually got a story build. If you did fewer collabs but all of them got the level of attention that theirs got then FD would have a MUCH better reputation.

  • THE Boys (Brandon) (@TateTwinBrandon) on X: This had to be addressed
  • @MolochAlter wish I could justify the sub for RoH. Glad to hear it's good! I thought Tony was booking that himself too.

  • @GeekFTW @MolochAlter so many of AEW's problems could be solved by Tony Khan letting go of the wheel more.

  • WWE WrestleMania XL - Night One Discussion Thread (Spoilers)
  • @Brain @Travon333 JD has so much more potential than we've seen yet. At NXT he was always a top contender. On the main roster he's a clown. I'm disappointed, but he's a professional.

  • AEW Continental title to be put up annually in Classic tournament
  • @Neon_Carnivore @GeekFTW I don't mind a title being reset every year with a tournament and otherwise working like a regularly championship. I forgot that the rankings were back, in which case it does matter more that Okada got a shot out of nowhere. However, I don't feel like they've referenced the rankings that much in general. Still not convinced they're a good idea, but I'm open to seeing more.

  • is there a way to not have the sublemmy(?) boost every comment and just the top level posts? We end up getting all the replies boosted as posts, which makes it weird and shows no

    @squaredcircle is there a way to not have the sublemmy(?) boost every comment and just the top level posts? We end up getting all the replies boosted as posts, which makes it weird and shows no context. Lemmy replies do show as replies on Mastodon so that part is good. Don't know if that's something that can be affected on a community level or if it's something that is managed at the instance level or Lemmy as a piece of software.

    Seems like lives on in the Mastodon side of the Fediverse? I thought Lemmy didn't federate outside of Lemmy and Kbin instances, but apparently that's changed! Let's see how this

    TNA IMPACT! Discussion Thread 02/22/24
  • @TellumSiege I don't know why, but Simon Gotch has really caught my attention. Gives me Edge vibes.

  • TNA Wrestling Exercises Its Option to Extend Contract of Josh Alexander
  • @JelloBrains @GeekFTW to be honest, I can see why TNA want to keep him if they can. I kind of don't blame them. But from a talent management standpoint it's not a good indicator of how he feels about the state of things. It arguably looks worse if they let Josh leave because it sets a precedent that Anthem will let you leave. But you can't treat people like assets on a spreadsheet.

    Real solution is rehiring Scott D'Amore.

  • SRS: Fightful Select has learned that Josh Alexander had asked TNA to not exercise the option on his contract, and was going to survey the landscape, and was even open to renegotiating.
  • @GeekFTW maybe Josh would have still wanted to look around even with D'Amore at the helm, but the fact that he wanted to look is not a good look for Anthem.

  • TNA Wrestling Exercises Its Option to Extend Contract of Josh Alexander
  • @GeekFTW hold up. The title says that TNA is extending the contract, but the graphic says he resigned. Which is it? Normally it doesn't matter because you probably want to stay at your wrestling promotion, but in this case I wonder if this is Anthem keeping Josh Alexander on lock? Idk, I'm just sus about everything they do now, lol.

  • Vague TNA Tweet Megathread ⏳ (Updated!)
  • @GeekFTW NGL, it's a clever way to mess with fans and drum up hype to something. I imagine it's something at Impact or No Surrender only because I would be surprised for them to have a public show of their displeasure with Anthem.

    In my heart I want it to mean that Scott D'Amore return incoming lol

  • Can the TNA roster go on strike? Legit asking because if that's something they're willing to do then they should strike while the iron is hot. Posting this to promote the idea. (https:

    I feel like if you like AEW then you may like TNA. Similar vibe despite lower production value.

    If you watch both consistently, what is your opinion between the two?
