Tremendous defense “yeah they suck but so does America.” I mean I don’t disagree these days, but you got to take into account who your boss is and the kind of company he and TKO like to keep…

Yeah, Seth should just quiet about it. There’s nothing he can say to make that sound great.
And the whole point of these shows, from the Saudi perspective, is so people will forget/ignore the whole fact that it’s blood money and all the reasons why it’s considered blood money. The people participating aren’t supposed to be calling it that!
Ya it’s remarkable how much he’s put his body through inside and outside the ring.
Numbers!

Roman Reigns was delivering pizzas to hospitals to kids yesterday ❤️

Worlds End did right around 7K last year
First count for Revolution 2025, which is in the same venue as the 2026 show, was around 5400.
So I’d say that’s a pretty good improvement.

I feel we are at a point where ‘a christmas story’ has been aired enough.
I think one of tnt/tbs last year did 24 hours of “elf” but ya it’s beyond ridiculous.
While we’re at it, there are enough Christmas songs. We don’t need anymore. There are no possible combination of notes that could be put together that would increase the quality of the pool. Its FULL!!!! I do make exceptions for bands that want to play a Christmas song if they’re touring in December. Cover only. Must be appropriate to the show.
Louisville wrestler lands role with Sylvester Stallone on 'Tulsa King'
A Louisville man went from squaring off in a pro wrestling ring to going toe-to-toe with a Hollywood heavyweight on screen.
Apparently the kid’s wish was to get a huge neck tattoo.
Merry belated Christmas everyone.
Did any of you get any wrestling related gifts? I got a gear subscription to AEW’s subscription box, the All Elite Crate. Get a box once a quarter with a bunch of mystery merch in it.

I like Danhausen. I think he could get over with his bits in NXT for sure. Any maybe even on the main roster.
but I like some comedy in my wrestling.
Ya he could do some bits here and there like r-truth. Smack down going to 3 hours they’ll be some segments to fill time.
It was fine in that it's Miz's role to act disrespected, remind us he was once on top, and then put over talent on a pretape the day after Christmas. I'm just not crazy about the amount of comedy characters we're getting. Otis could be a solid mid-carder but nope. Towaza was dressed as an elf. Hendry is decent but I'm gonna need more in a year than him being like the other song guy who was fired a few years back. They had something with Killings for a show but now he's dressed as a bunny without a plan. Danhausen is likely coming to NXT. I'm 41. I like Seinfeld and Curb. Bunnies, elves, and a small guy running in saying "very spooky" or whatever and then running out of frame isn't the height of comedy for me lol. Clearly it's meant for kids but still, not for me at all.
Apparently people trying to buy walk up tickets for Worlds End tonight are being turned away, so appears to be a complete sellout. AEW should have run a bigger arena in Chicago proper.
If they had done that with the vastly superior transportation options + the convenience of being in Chicago instead of a suburb, they probably could have done a lot more than the ~9K sellout they are doing tonight.

I thought the Ilija/Melo match was really good - considering it was taped during a raw it got a really good reaction from the crowd.
Please go to WWE and not AEW.
His brother, the wrestler formerly known as Brogan Finlay, is in NXT.
Didn’t know that - isn’t he basically the same as the dcf guy lance archer? Basically same build and style?
Omg I can’t believe the NFL counterprogrammed World’s End - how dare they!

Not to mention the constant blue sky posts should make a major difference!
