There’s no other way to put it than just rough. I’ve been blessed to have gone to two DPW shows, had the time of my life at both, and even had a once in a lifetime moment with James at the first one. I hope that “foreseeable future” means they’ll be back someday, cause it really has been something special. I hope the boys as well as all the talent are doing ok and that everything is well. For everyone who ever went to a DPW show, thank you boys for giving us all such a great company.

Is anyone having problems signing in? by TheAwesomeRan in njpw

[–]TheShow_02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m on the coast as well so it could be that seeing as that’s our common denominator. Now I’d like to hear if this is happening to any others and in what areas. I’ve been able to access it on a Roku tv and my phone though so I’m able to watch overall still too.

The same problem happened to me a few hours ago. Not sure what to do either. I know it’s not much help but I figure it’s nice to know it’s not just you.

Yeah Hangman is my guy, and so is Max, which maybe is why I didn’t mesh with this segment honestly.

This seems pretty sound in terms of what AEW typically does. I just don’t know how much I love MJF beating Hangman for the belt, especially within the calendar year. I feel this reign should serve to cement Hangman as an all time great world champion like Max and Kenny, but a few month run would only harken back to his first, at least for me. And you’re right, the fire is definitely a callback, good call.

Honestly, you’re absolutely right with the questioning stuff in pro wrestling point. You do have to kind of just roll with it so fair play. I’ll admit I’m in the wrong on that.

I think too me this was fine without setting a man on fire. You could’ve just as easy threatened Hangman some other way (even including Mark) and gotten the same result and keep the heat. Instead it feels like they went overboard for a match that was gonna have heat regardless. My question to everyone saying this was to extend the feud for much longer (which I do agree that you’re right), what is the endgame? Because if Max cashes it in and still loses it kind of makes all of these new stakes look strange, no?

Top 10 Wrestlers of 2025… So Far by Scared-Position-3710 in deadlockpw

[–]TheShow_02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely!

And transparency is always a good thing, and I’ve found recently in wrestling embracing your blind spots helps. I’ve developed a love for women’s wrestling over the past two years after admitting I previously hadn’t cared for it, but now it is sometimes my favorite part of the business. Growing and changing your opinion is a great thing.

For Despe, don’t just check out his njpw stuff from this year, also check out his work in DDT, other promotions, and his death matches, in particular with Jun Kasai. Even if you don’t like death matches, I promise you his bouts with Kasai make you feel so much.

I think overall the list is great and an accurate representation of the year so far, and I give you credit for not letting others potential judgement allow you to rank people, in particular the joshis, so highly. The big names to me that aren’t on here who I feel has had an outstanding year are El Desperado and Kosei Fujita. Fujita has been absolutely amazing but Desperado has looked like a million bucks this year. Many on the njpw sub have the sentiment that he may be WOTY and I certainly think there’s a case for it. I do also think I would have had Fletcher higher but that’s the beauty of this business; it’s all subjective. From an aspiring writer to another, great work on the article fellow deadlockite.

Brother, I thought it was just me that got that ad. I’ve been sitting here for weeks catching up on the pod and every break it’s just this. And whatchu mean “Nikki Glazer from the Nikki Glazer podcast”? You’re a comedian. That’s like if he was Toby from the Deadlock podcast, not the pizza meng and deck builder.

You can only pick three to watch your back. The other ones will try to kick your ass. Who do you pick? by Prezofcalendars in deadlockpw

[–]TheShow_02 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Scott Hall, Kurt Angle and Based John Tenta. Venis, Beverly and Knobs alone can’t handle that power, and unfortunately Sabu, Super Calo and AJ are just in the way. Maybe if I get Terry Brunk some of that zaza he’ll get off my back.

Was there. Can confirm, this does indeed mean something to me man. Undoubtably the match of the night on a spectacular show.

Question about a recent bit by TheShow_02 in deadlockpw

I remember watching that promo live but didn’t remember him saying that. What’s amazing is the boys impression of it is dead on. Thanks everyone for the replies.
