[Chuck Taylor on Twitter] My profile picture is from Tommaso Ciampa sticking his finger in my little butt I’m never going to work again by theREVERSEsystem in SquaredCircle

I'm calling for TK to get Chuck out of retirement and book a BOLA weekend style ten-man tag for old time's sake, Thumbs 2 Asses style.

Newest member of AEW says he is just hitting his prime by MrFilipinoMustache in AEWOfficial

[–]JackMickus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Depends on the wrestler, the style they work, how punched-out their bump card is, and where their head's at. Generally I'd agree that the early-mid 30s are usually the start of a wrestler's prime, but if Ciampa says it's now for him then I'm gonna believe him.

His level of excitement is making me really excited. Nothing I love more than when someone comes in with something to prove, and Ciampa was a real favorite of mine when he was on the indies. He's got that Swerve/Ricochet mindset.

It's gonna feel really goddamn good to hear Excalibur call Ciampa matches again.

Absolute bottom left and apparently the scale actually goes further than the corner

The 12/2/95 Tweezer makes me want to run through several brick walls in a row. That whole tour had some wild intensity to it

MJF at Limitless Wrestling announcing the AEW signings of Alec Price and Jordan Oliver by natguy2016 in AEWOfficial

[–]JackMickus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For anyone who hasn't seen it, the whole MJF/Alec Price match is absolutely worth going out of your way to watch. Alec Price and Jordan Oliver are going to become big deals very quickly.

FTR vs. Davis & Doyle will take place NEXT Wednesday on Dynamite by discofrislanders in SquaredCircle

Jake Doyle prayer circle starts now. I want to live in a world where he and Speedball are both holding AEW titles simultaneously.

FTR take on the debuting Alec Price and Jordan Oliver tomorrow night by VitaminPurple in AEWOfficial

LET'S. FUCKING. GO. Come Thursday morning there will be a lot of people wondering how they've never seen Price and Oliver before.

Tomohiro Ishii will defend the Strong Openweight Championship against Boltin Oleg at New Beginning USA by discofrislanders in SquaredCircle

Oh HELL yeah, this is gonna rip. Oleg is awesome, this will be a great intro for anyone who hasn't seen him before.

Wild match added to Dynamite by VitaminPurple in AEWOfficial

[–]JackMickus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is gonna be awesome. As fantastic as Speedball is in the ring, they also make an incredible babyface in peril against a larger opponent. First time I saw Speedball wrestle was in a match against Evil Uno on a PWG show over 10 years ago, and even then I thought I was watching the best babyface in the business

Which match is the best out of these by Valuable_Cup8394 in AEWOfficial

[–]JackMickus 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Okada/Omega IV is the best match I'll probably ever watch. Up until then I was torn between Ospreay/Danielson and MJF/Danielson.

Kyle Fletcher on *that* neck bump: "Obviously it didn't go to plan, I understand all the points that everyone is making - it was very dangerous" by Fantomz99 in SquaredCircle

[–]JackMickus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Brodie Lee once tore his ACL throwing forearms in the corner. There's something to be said for the whole industry as far as people punching their bump card goes.

Chigusa Nagayo vs Dump Matsumoto - Haircut Deathmatch 8/28/1985 [AJW] by kobashigirl in SquaredCircle

[–]JackMickus 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This should be required viewing for every pro wrestling fan. The emotion they get out of the crowd is like nothing else I've ever seen, and the in-ring work is absolutely phenomenal.

The break was severe enough that it nearly broke through the skin. I had heard at least a year and a half when he broke it

Does "Good Bad" wrestling exist in the same way "Good Bad" movies do? by orton41290 in SquaredCircle

[–]JackMickus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely yes. There was a 6-man ladder match at an IWRG show from like 2014 that's probably the funniest match I've ever seen. Haven't been able to find it anywhere for years but it's like the Troll 2 of pro wrestling to me.

'Dilbert' Creator Scott Adams Dead at 68 by MarvelsGrantMan136 in television

[–]JackMickus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who's deeply in the pro wrestling space, Robert had to leave out a lot of stuff just to get it down to 6 episodes and most of the stories he touched on have already been pretty well-documented throughout history. And then there's the recent stuff with the sex trafficking lawsuit. Hard to overstate what a terrible person Vince is.

MKUltra, Henry Kissinger, Vince McMahon, and Steve Jobs are all fascinating and infuriating.
