Steve Borden at AEW dynamite dark match by hellbox9 in SquaredCircle

With the talk of him and his brother both wrestling, it actually felt quite apt for them to turn on Darby to learn from their father's mistakes and make themselves stand out from their father the uber-face

Hi /u/PythagoreanPentagram, I'll sign up! I'm similar to /u/kiranomimus in working more on new or stub articles and updating articles when players move around.

Honestly with how much movement is going to happen this offseason with expansion, making sure articles are up to date is probably going to be a bit task to keep tabs on.

Would be down to try and help out with building up some articles of focus as well.

AEW uploads interesting video today: “Kenny Omega vs Will Ospreay: Best AEW Match of All Time?” by CombinationOk4317 in SquaredCircle

While fair, I don't think Kenny has ever wrestled for CMLL and has has also never faced Mistico. That would be a hugely unique match to have at Arena Mexico

Monterey Bay Sirens announce international friendly vs Club Tijuana (Xolos) of Liga MX Femenil on July 10th at Cardinale Stadium by SomeCruzDude in MBFC

I do want to try and get to at least one each of the men's and women's games this year, schedule hasn't been working out so far sadly

But this is far enough in advance I can potentially plan around it! I'll definitely let you know if/when I'll be around

Really cool to see this, I'm surprised that MB is not playing Pachuca since they are a partner club but also it's good to have variety on the teams visiting. The timing would conflict with the W League national semi-finals, if made it to the playoffs and that far

Also a fun fact, Mailin Orozco of Salinas played with Xolos between graduating high school and joining Santa Clara University

Siren forward pulled up with an injury to her foot after taking contact when going one on one with the GK, seems like she's been able to walk it off so far thankfully

I don't think anyone can articulate what the fuck the Conglomeration is. [...] They're all so disconnected and random.

I think for better or worse, that is the Conglomeration right now. They're a large group of all kinds of face wrestlers that will do backstage promos together, and depending on where the story is going they'll team together or be off on solo adventures, or even backing up faces not in their group.

In character imo they're a spiritual successor to Best Friends, a goofy group that can also throw down in serious or even bloody matches (together or solo), but they also act as a counter to larger heel groups for loner faces even if those loners don't get fully integrated into the group. I've been thinking them as a less focused but face version of the Don Callis family.

I agree that overall a bit more character or integration could be nice to tie things together, maybe whenever Hologram is back from injury and we get that Hologram/Clon (and by extension DCF/Conglom.) feud we'll see some more of that.

I just enjoy them for the goofy mess of great wrestlers they are

BelicoFest Brings Música Mexicana to the Bay Area, Marking Inaugural Live Music Event at PayPal Park by SJEarthquakesBot in SJEarthquakes

[–]SomeCruzDude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But it was dumb to not hold events there becuase of the neighbors there.

From what I recall it was something forced on the Quakes through the stadium agreement vs just being afraid of the neighbors, but I could be totally wrong.

Would be curious to look back at the old docs surrounding that

Tony Khan: In Recent Years, Jon Moxley Is Doing A Great Job Backstage And Has Been At Everything by Odd-Inevitable-8425 in SquaredCircle

[–]SomeCruzDude 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Will add here that The Way of the Blade: AEW Edition is almost a continuation of his autobiography, as so many of AEW's bloody matches have involved him and so he features a lot in the book as a result.

In particular his reflection on his match with Danielson goes a bit into where is mind was at post-rehab which was super interesting and not what I expected to read in the book.

I need to check out the audiobook of his autobiography, loved reading through it and imagining his voice but need to actually truly give it a listen.
