AEW COLLISION LIVE/POST DISCUSSION THREAD 07/01/23
(kbin.social)
This is the backup community for SquaredCircle on Lemmy.zip! Come discuss pro wrestling! Any company or era is welcome. (Our main community on Lemmy.zip) Please direct conversations towards our main community as it is more active and this spot is intended for 'emergency' purposes.
No worries. It's been fun wading in. I have gotten a crash course in vernacular and industry terms via my stepfather-in-law. He is a walking encyclopedia of wrestling history and is almost always up on everyone. He should have his own podcast he is so good at calling storylines and works.
We have a very active text thread during most of the shows including several other friends who watch so we are always chatting about everything from the outfits to the horrible commercials.
Sounds like your stepdad has great taste haha.
And yeah the outfits, promos, commercials are all great. The whole 'sport' is unlike anything else. I mean, in what industry does an athlete have to make/choose their costume, moveset, character, promos, sell their own tee-shirts, sometimes come up with their own storylines, and write or improvise a match? And that doesn't even include the violence lol.
