😂😂Jericho is such a clout demon

[-] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Jericho was hilarious tonight

[-] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Jack Perry in the new Elite sounds intriguing. I wonder if he could eventually get the TNT title off of Copeland

[-] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Casually opening with an Okada/Pac match

[-] csm10495@sh.itjust.works 5 points 7 months ago

I thought they said Bryan and Osprey would open the show.

[-] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Does being a wrestler from the 90s give you a buff against outside shenanigans?

How tf did Billy kick out?

[-] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

By being the size of a house

I was flying into Brisbane Australia years ago and halfway through the immigration / customs section I saw 3-4 border control agents around this absolute giant of a man, super tanned, jacked, blonde hair. Initially I wondered if it was a drugs bust but everybody was way to jovial and chatting and only later did I realise it was Billy who I think was in town for some indie show in 'straya. He looks big on TV, even bigger IRL.

Bullet Club Gold finally starting to rack up the gold. International championship next for Jay?

[-] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 7 months ago

Are they still Bullet Club Gold? I couldn't help but notice they were consistently announced as the Bang Bang Gang.

[-] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Pretty sure they use both interchangeably. They may phase out Bullet Club Gold though since I assume NJPW still has some stake in it

I could have done without the ref sketchiness at the end

[-] Travon333@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Yeah probably more so to protect the Black Arrow.

Has anyone ever kicked out of it if he lands it?

Adam Cole is back!

[-] Travon333@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

😂😂Why does Okada think potentially paralyzing someone is funny

[-] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago

He enjoys his job!

AEW production is so bad, that Bryan/Osprey Knee vs Blade epic clash and they filmed the two guys' butts in mid-air. As WWE's camera work improves, AEW's flaws become more and more apparent.

I mean, zoom out a little bit, damn it!

[-] zewm@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

I agree. AEWs production is really bad. The director always misses cues.

An example I can remember from tonight, Eddie Kingston’s machine gun chops spot. The entire time the camera was behind the post and looking up from ground level. Missed the entire sequence.

I notice they miss a lot of important moves when they occur. It feels like whoever is directing is not understanding the pace of the matches.

[-] kubj31196@lemm.ee 4 points 7 months ago

It kinda annoys me more because the match was so fire, that the bad camera sticks out even more

[-] csm10495@sh.itjust.works 4 points 7 months ago

This is so true and noticeable. Then they don't even do replays a lot of the time to show what they missed.
