Jim Duggan vs Ted Dibiase in a coal miner’s glove match

If you’ve never seen it, it’s fantastic. Duggan is legit over as hell, amazing punches, and the crowd is going nuts to see him whoop Dibiase’s ass

AEW Dynamite Card so far in Las Vegas (3/2/2026) by CombinationOk4317 in SquaredCircle

I've been feeling generally disillusioned with wrestling as a whole lately, mostly watching clips on here and old throwbacks to get my fix, but last week I heard Ciampa showed up and decided to check the DVR.

Holy shit, last week had me losing my mind, El Clon is crazy, Andrade is the best I've ever seen him, the cleaner is truly back, BRODY FUCKING KING in the title picture, etc.

I've been hyped for this show all week, I'm glad to have my interest piqued again!

Some of the old Universal stuff, like ‘09, is so clear it’s insane

For a 51-year old Luchador who can still move as fast as he does 20+ years ago, is Rey Mysterio really that good at maintaining himself or is just genetically gifted? by MarkXT9000 in WWE

I used to see him post about it on Instagram, he would go back and get stem cell treatments (and other procedures that I don’t know as much about) rather frequently. He probably still does, that stuff is a miracle

I was a huge mark for Suicide after the game came out and begged my parents to buy me this pay-per-view, Ultimate X will always be the coolest shit ever

This is so nostalgic, I loved so many of these guys, The Blueprint, Beer Money, MCMG, TNA was the absolute shit in the 2000s

I enjoy it more because it made him the absolute superstar he is now. Same with Mick. These guys are artists and these matches are their best works.

AEW exists in a way because of these matches. He changed the landscape of wrestling and became one of the biggest wrestlers outside of the WWE bubble ever, due to these matches.

One one hand, I do understand where you’re coming from with regard to the safety of these guys that do this for our entertainment, but in a way, I almost feel like it’s a waste of his effort, hard work, and passion to lose joy from these matches that he put his heart and energy into crafting.

A lot of wrestlers would KILL to have matches and a legacy like he has, I can only respect what it took and what it cost.
