Darby is insane for some of these moves he takes.

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

It's like his neck is his mortal enemy.

Since they're using the Dynamite set up tonight, I kinda wish they did Battlebowl '91 rules with the two rings.

Also congrats on Brian Cage and Komander for being one of the few to get the Rick Rude treatment.

Has to be Swerve vs Darby at this point

[-] Doom_Cough@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Slammed onto the skateboard wheels up. Ouch.

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

What looks painful to us is a wet dream for Darby.

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

I love Marina's tough, brawler style. It'd be cool to see her join the BCC.

[-] serfraser@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

She was so good! She's come a long way since SOLVE ME/YOU DON'T KNOW ME. Added so many little quirks and character bits to her work and it's made a huge difference. That sock thing in the entrance is inspired, and dropping her foot down on Stat's face too. Literally great heel work lol.

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

lol well played. And I'm glad she's starting to figure it out. People raked her over the coals after she wore that hat and cut that promo.

[-] Doom_Cough@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

My wife calls Suzuki "Murder Grandpa".

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Your wife knows her stuff lol. He's great. Not sure if I'd get the same haircut though...

[-] Doom_Cough@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

And here I thought it was something she made up. It's the same kind of nickname she'd come up with.

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

The Good news: the women's match is the main event!

The Bad news: There's four minutes left in the episode.

[-] cupcakezealot 2 points 1 year ago

It is pretty awesome that the women's match main evented two shows simultaneously though!

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

That's true. How was Athena/Willow?

[-] cupcakezealot 2 points 1 year ago

Oh god, amazing. I love both Athena and Willow so it was rare that I was rooting for both but the match was so good. I've been a fan of her since Ember Moon so it's great to see her come so far!

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I don't know anything about her Ember Moon phase (pun fully intended) but Athena's been one of my favourites ever since her heel turn. I'll have to watch it later.

[-] cupcakezealot 2 points 1 year ago

WWE posted the full Ember Moon vs Asuka on Youtube. It was one of my absolute favourite matches.

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

That was awesome! Both of them just put on a clinic. And I thought Athena's green/silver gear looked great, too. I think I like it better than what she wears now (purple and black?).

[-] cupcakezealot 2 points 1 year ago

I didn't watch too much old ROH but apparently someone mentioned on Twitter that they did so many homages to old school ROH women during the match too. I love that Tony trusted them enough to let them main event. I hope there's more of this. I'd love it if he let Maria and the rest of the women reboot Woman of Honor Wednesdays.

[-] Doom_Cough@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

"Mean!"

[-] cupcakezealot 2 points 1 year ago

DBD over, so catching up on Rampage. Kris vs Marina should be great!

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Nick Wayne's in the Royal Rampage? Nice.

[-] Doom_Cough@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Butcher has the exact kind of mustache you'd expect a person named Butcher to have. It's uncanny.

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

It's a great 'stache. I've always thought that if you put a monocle on him he'd look like a jacked version of Mr. Monopoly.

[-] Travon333@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Suzuki is such a dick for that elimination. I could throw you over but I could also try snapping your ankle and throwing you over.

[-] Doom_Cough@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Holy crap, those lyrics! That was a grade A first line.

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

This has to lead to a rap battle between Harley and Max.
