Trump mocks Kamala Harris' name but her campaign is putting it front and center
  • I'm honestly surprised he has so little. I mean, not to give that piece of shit ideas, but "Commie Kamala" is right there. Even "Crooked Kamala" would work better than what he's tried.

    I saw a clip of him where he called her "Laffin' Kamala" and then stopped to specify that he was spelling it L-A-F-F-I-N-apostrophe. It's hard to remember last time I felt so much cringe.

  • Trump mocks Kamala Harris' name but her campaign is putting it front and center
  • I'll admit to mispronouncing her name on occasion myself, but mostly because I associate it with two other figures who did/do pronounce it Ka-MAH-luh. I have to make an effort to get it right for her. But I am making that effort. And I have little doubt that these assholes are not.

    I'm kind of afraid that I'll mispronounce it in mixed company and make someone who doesn't know me well think I'm one of those weird Republicans or something.

  • Melissa Santos Joins AEW Broadcast Team
  • I'll have to google that later. I don't know what the "nip factory" is.

    It's a factory... FULL OF NIPS!

  • Mercedes Mone and Britt Baker get into an altercation on stage at Comic-Con
  • I mean, AEW's second home is Chicago, and James D'Amato is right there...

    Hell, he even had Colt Cabana on his show before.

  • Melissa Santos Joins AEW Broadcast Team
  • So they stopped using Alex Marvez. Not sure why they didn't lean into the dorky character.....but they didn't.

    I mean, they kinda did. There was that one time he interviewed Joey Janela during the breakup/feud with Sonny Kiss. You know, the infamous "Nip Factory" promo.

  • Mercedes Mone and Britt Baker get into an altercation on stage at Comic-Con
  • Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if that's where they're going. Bring Kamille in as Mone's muscle, then Britt can bring Hayter back as a counter. It's a perfect wrestling story, if Hayter is ready to go. And a big spotlight match against Camille at All In would be a perfect way to make her return.

  • Kids? A Growing Number of Americans Say, β€˜No, Thanks.’
  • Is this a surprise? People can barely afford to take care of themselves these days, why would they want to further burden themselves with a child?

    Stop stealing everything from the lower and middle classes and giving it all to the rich, and this trend will magically reverse itself.

  • The Obamas Endorse Harris: 'This Is Going to Be Historic'
  • Biden couldn't handle a primary run in 2008, but he killed in 2020.

    Times change. Circumstances change. People change. And if the enthusiasm that has come out over the past week, both from her and from the party base, is any indication, Harris in 2024 is in a much better place than she was in 2020.

  • AOC's Deepfake AI Porn Bill Unanimously Passes the Senate
  • Ironically, the face tattoo might convince some people it's real, since AI has a well known problem with writing coherent text.

  • www.cagesideseats.com Drew McIntyre tells CM Punk to β€˜cry us a river’ in this real photo with Jack Perry

    This is Drew McIntyre’s finest troll job yet with less than two weeks to go until he fights Punk at WWE SummerSlam.

    Drew McIntyre tells CM Punk to β€˜cry us a river’ in this real photo with Jack Perry

    Wonder if this will be what sets Punk over the edge this time (a la the "Workers' rights" line from Hangman).

  • AEW Dynamite - Blood & Guts 2024 Discussion Thread (Spoilers)
  • He has to be back before Wembley, right? Wouldn't be right for them to do a big show like that without the soul of AEW

  • Kamala Harris vows US not going back to β€˜chaos’ of Trump years in rally speech
  • That's great, but it's also a national poll. It doesn't account for Trump's electoral college advantage.

  • Secret Service director steps down after assassination attempt against ex-President Trump at rally.
  • Right. Like that clown running Crowdstrike, who failed up after a stint at McAfee. There have been two global IT catastrophes on his watch (one at each of those companies), and somehow he keeps getting put in better positions to start the next one.

  • WWE Raw Will Air on SyFy for the Next 2 Weeks, Due to Olympic Coverage
  • With the ECW Zombie, it was more that Sandman attacked him. Which was part of the gag, I suppose; The Zombie was what "they" wanted ECW to do, and The Sandman was the spirit of ECW revolting against it.

    With the Miz comment, I was thinking of the Zombie Lumberjack Match they did at Backlash 2021 as a promotional tie in with the movie Army of the Dead. IIRC, that ended with Miz getting overrun by the zombies.

  • Now I'm sad.
  • I heard a rumor that AEW was coming to Cleveland that week, but I just checked their website, and the only week that's possible would be the 4th week of September, which they haven't announced where Dynamite/Collision will take place yet. Actually, with how bad AEW ticket sales are, this venue that TNA would have used would be kind of decent for AEW. Only problem is, it's not an arena shape. It's a theatre shape. So you wouldn't have those wrap around digital banners. You wouldn't have a 360 surrounding of fans. Unless you want to make seating on the stage, like ECW did in the 90s in a different theater building.

    AEW uses that kind of arrangement (with fans on the stage) when they do shows at Daily's Place in Jacksonville. But that seems to be the only theater-type venue they've done.

  • Melissa Santos Joins AEW Broadcast Team
  • Santos was previously able to inject a lot of personality into her work in Lucha Underground, so I'm optimistic that she can thrive in whatever role they use her in.

  • The internet has entered its Kamala Harris β€˜coconut tree’ era
  • She once related a story where her mom (I think) told her "What, you think you just fell from a coconut tree?" to get across the idea that no one is an island and we all build on what came before us. And between the odd phrasing and her exaggerated delivery, it ended up becoming a meme.

  • The internet has entered its Kamala Harris β€˜coconut tree’ era
  • They did the same thing with that video of AOC dancing from her college days, so I think Republicans are just incapable of understanding expressions of joy.

    Reason for ending to Jericho/Joe

    Tap for spoiler

    Joe is going to be out for a while filming season 2 of Twisted Metal, so the whole Jericho trying to kill him with a forklift thing was to write him out for a couple of months.

    Dax Harwood sidelined with an injury.

    Looks like Dax has a hematoma in his back he's been working through since April, but it's bad enough that he's taking time off now.

    Get well soon, Dax.

    Good to see him come out so strong in support of Nyla here. Interesting when he says they'll have to "evaluate" how they handle future events in Oklahoma too.

    Tony Khan Gives Update On Match For This Week's AEW Dynamite | 411MANIA

    411mania.com UPDATED: Tony Khan Gives Update On Match For This Week's AEW Dynamite | 411MANIA

    Will Ospreay will battle another fellow member of the Don Callis Family on this week's AEW Dynamite.

    UPDATED: Tony Khan Gives Update On Match For This Week's AEW Dynamite | 411MANIA

    TL;DR: There's some concern about Ospreay's condition after the match with Takeshita (rightfully so, some of those head bumps looked nasty), so the Ospreay/Fletcher match that was announced at Revolution may not happen on Dynamite.

    Mercedes Mone has held pro wrestling fans in the palms of her well-manicured hands this week, as she has dropped several teases that she is heading back to WWE. When WWE held its Holiday Tour live event in Boston, Mone was quick to drop a photo on Instagram Stories outside the Boston Garden. Earlier

    Backstage News On Dana Massie And Rafael Morffi Leaving AEW

    www.hausofwrestling.com Backstage News On Dana Massie And Rafael Morffi Leaving AEW

    It is an interesting time for AEW as we head into 2024, as only one member of The E in AEW, The Elite, is an active member of the roster: Kota Ibushi. "Hangman" Adam Page was attacked by the mysterious devils that have been roaming around AEW as of late and is off television selling his injury....

    Backstage News On Dana Massie And Rafael Morffi Leaving AEW

    TL;DR: Dana has been harboring some resentment over the way the Bucks were treated after Brawl Out. While The Elite themselves have decided to let bygones be bygones, she was never that happy with the situation.

    Morffi, OTOH, simply had a better offer elsewhere.
