Why does WWE have a tag team called Dirty Dawgs in 2022? Creative no longer gives a damn. Bobby Roode deserves so much better. Anyway, Tony Khan, he of AEW and Fulham FC ownership has bought Ring of Honor.

The vince interview with Pat McAfee is both amazing and nonsensical at the same time. Wonderful viewing.

And so we arrive in Spring 1994, and the television debut of an upstart promotion, 'the' ECW. Eastern Championship Wrestling of course. According to living legend Terry Funk, Philadelphia is the birthplace of 'HC' (hardcore for the uninitiated) and we begin ... WOOF. Sorry to admit I have tapped out after three episodes. Moving to my tried-and-tested 'weeklies are shit, PPVs only' schedule until mid/late '94 onwards. It's just unwatchable.

I’ve tried to watch ECW from a few different periods and realised that it’s just not for me. However, if I’d been able to watch it when it was actually on as I could with WWF/WCW, I’d have probably loved it at the time. (Except for the early stuff which as you say, was shite).

AEW PPV delivered the goods again. Yep, top drawer. I’m desperate for Regal to manage that stable they’ve teased with Danielson and Moxley. Worth also saying that, IMO, the triple threat tag on Raw was right up there with some of the best Revolution matches. Cracking match.

Regal's gonna work with the ROH 'developmental' side I think, then have the violent lads living violently mentor Garcia, Moriarty and Wheeler YUTA as the next gen, and frankly here for it. Throw Claudio into the mix too.

Bloody young. It's a travesty how young some of these guys go.
