Darby vs. Christian should be fun. But this is what I'm really looking forward to...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Are you trying to get me to giggle until I pass out?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I was this close to making it the thumbnail lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If you don't make it the thumbnail on Wednesday, I will.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

This might be my favourite threat ever.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Your willpower is greater than mine

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Darby Wtf man. It's a random Saturday Collision, why are you coffin dropping the apron

😂😂😂 Is Ricky the first suspended wrestler to get a promo, vignette, and full entrance with Pyro?

Also getting some HBK with Diesel vibes from these 2.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

😂 Has to be. And great call on the HBK/Diesel reference.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

You know shits serious when it's filmed in letterbox

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

So is Andrade officially not in LFI anymore?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

The difference between Nigel/Kelly giving the match card rundown and Excalibur doing it is jarring.

The two shows definitely have 2 distinct feels and I feel like they both picked the right roster.

Dynamite is pure chaos and literally anyone could pop up. The commentary team also just feels like 3 bros taking.

Collison is way more structured and less busy. Matches are either obvious squashes or given enough time to breathe. Nigel/Kevin/JR also feel more like commentators

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I love Taz, Excalibur, and Tony. Their chemistry is fantastic!

😂😂😂Nigel is such a simp. Did he just say Christian would retain?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I always pop for the Jay White cardboard cutout

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I'm happy Jay is on All In but we could've had Omega vs Danielson if the rumors are true. Besides Jay should be on the PPV no matter what

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Is that the first time they say 'cardblade' on TV?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I think so lol

Now I want to see someone suplexed so hard their brain falls out their butt

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Play that leg, Juice!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Was Dalton okay there? Seemed weird the way he stretched his arm out.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I think he was reaching for the rope

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Damn can these four cut a promo.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They're such a good group
Putting Juice and the Gunns together is just fun

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I wasn't sure about their chemistry at first but they've really meshed these past few weeks. I'd love it if they could find a fifth...maybe a big man or something (Big Bill? Hobbs?)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

😂😂😂 Idk why Schiavone agreed to interview then. He has to know he would get bullied

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He looked like sour boy everytime they put his hand up 😂

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Tony is amazing at subtle indignance when someone is rude to him

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

HoB doesn't donate to Goodwill is now canon

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

C'mon Ricky, say Stroke Daddy...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

@Montagge can you see this? I know they couldn't see the Dynamite thread...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I can on Artemis but not kbin. When I follow your message I can see the thread but no comments.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Thanks for the update.

Weird. It's been happening all week for me (Getting error messages whenever I create threads). At this point, I don't know if it's me, Kbin, or something else...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ditto, and I assume it's on kbins end. The two that I visit the most are being weird, but squaredcircle for some reason is worse. No idea why. I thought I had fat fingers blocked a bunch of people by accident, but no such luck.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Hopefully it's on Kbin's end. And hopefully it's solved by All-In, otherwise I might have to find someone else to post the thread.

And thanks again for the help.

Toni's old Hollywood gimmick is so great. The most impressive part is how quickly she's pulled it off.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

So is Miro going to kill QTV to redeem Hobbs?

That Pounce looked NASTY

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Absolutely. Diamante looked like she was an inch away from hitting the corner of that rail 😬

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Dude, I was thinking the same thing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Dang. I guess that's all we'll get from FTR :/

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

😂😂 I'm already loving the relationship between Toni and Lexy

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Christian should call himself the "Real" TNT champ.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I put a trophy next to his name for a reason

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Hasn't been mentioned yet, but the FTR/Bucks match is now official.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I love Christian's turtleneck gear. He's like the wrestling version of Archer.

It doesn't pay to be Tony Schiavone this episode lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Spear, huh? Isn't that someone else's move...
