That shitty crowd deserved that shitty finish. The shitty crowd was WWE's fault

Asuka deserves so much better than what WWE has done to her since WM. What a fucking waste of 2+ years of booking just to make her look like shit for the last few months.

PWG the other night was sweet. Pentagon/Rey Horus was great. Janela and Cobb had what I think was Janela's best match in PWG so far. Whole card was pretty great, really, aside from the opener which was a weird match.
I really like that new venue a lot. It was my first time being there. BOLA will be sick there, I bet. There was a buncha semi-famous comedian d.udes there, too. I looked behind me at one point, and two rows behind me (I got front row somehow) it was Paul Scheer, Rob Huebel, Nick Kroll and a couple others I didn't recognize but they looked familiar. Was a really good show, though, I recommend the whole thing except for the opener.

masa saito has passed away at 75 from a long time battle with parkinson's
in honor of this everyone should go watch him wrestle inoki on an island for two hours

Thats a big loss what a bummer. His match in 1990 vs Larry Zbyzsko is one of my favorites. Awesome tag team with Mr. Fuji in WWWF/WWF too.

i kind of feel odd about just a shirt with cassette artwork as the image? but hey, its akira hokuto and i really cant pass up joshi merch that's half-way decent in this age. + the maroon/sky colourway is great

N3 elgin vs. page was pretty good. meandered in the beginning but not as much as other elgin matches have recently, picked up in the middle, don't see it as a match that any of you would really like though
yoshi-hashi vs. evil-whatever
suzuki vs. makabe-very good, your yearly good makabe match
okada vs. fale was ok I guess, didn't really click. I like weird okada but... he's weird
tanahashi vs. white was a lot better than white vs. okada imo. similar structure but thought that the finishing part was a lot more compelling
overall, better than n1, not nearly n2

i really feel like i caught dezmond xavier at that chicago show i was at last year? right before he literally exploded into a bigger star. he was tagging with some other white dude who was absolutely not this current dude he's tagging with and i remember thinking oh man this black dude is light years better than his partner and then shortly after he debuts for pwg, goes to DG, and wrestles in china like all this bonkers shit. good on him. seems to kill it everywhere he goes.

How does everyone have 4 hours they can dedicate to watching crappy WWE ppv's? That's the real question to me. At what point do you guys just give up, knowing that those shows are always bad?

I literally have zero expectations and am playing switch with my brother most of the time it plays in the background. It's not a sit/watch/pay attention experience like I try to make Mania (even if it sucks).

Yeah other than NXT and certain WWE wrestlers I usually just throw it on as background noise while I do work.

The only wrestling I watch is NXT, 205 Live, and the PPV. Extreme Rules was definitely a chore to get through though.

The only WWE stuff I watch is the shitty live ppv's, nxt and vault stuff.
The vault is basically the only reason I still use the network.
I'm pretty much just watching joshi,GCW,DDT and when BJW makes a tv taping.
I'd watch NJPW but they don't have women on the roster....JK but really I find myself just uninterested in New Japan lately.

I do NXT/205 Live/PPVs for WWE. Outside of that, pretty much just NJPW and whatever looks cool on youtube. Also go to every GloryPro show.
Anyone watch Dojo Pro on Amazon Prime yet? I was at the taping and it was pretty fun.
