Anyone else get young Randy Orton vibes from Ricky Starks? Dude, yes! I'm pretty sure I've said this exact thing in at least one of the Dynamite threads. Like, the look, the douchey personality, the athleticism, all of it makes me think of an Orton who actually has charisma.

I can't give you a like in good faith because of the line about Orton having no charisma, but I'm with you on the rest. He even has those sadistic eyes.

Honestly, Orton on the mic is like Orton in the ring for me: he's very good under very specific circumstances, like when he gives a shit. The other 80% of the time, he's just dull as dishwater to me.

Gotcha. For me, Orton just has a swagger to him that I love even when he's quarter-assing it. But yeah, When the bell rings I'm usually checked out until the RKO replay, heh.

Nov 2nd will be the 1 year anniversary of the AEW board being open. Feels like a decade ago, f***ing 2020. >_>

On Dark, Ricky Starks jokingly accusing Shawn Dean of not really being a naval captain before Taz ixnayed him on it was hilarious. I imagine it's equal parts Taz keeping it from going somewhere, or maybe all kayfabed, because as his manager, baselessly accusing dudes of stolen valor is probably not a look he wants Ricky having.

Cima was struck by a car and is recovering. I hope he recovers well.

It kinda hit me that a lot of the roster are latino. Sammy and Cody are both half Cuban, with PnP, Ivelisse and Diamante, Serpentico, and Eddie Kingston all being Puerto Rican, and of course, Luchas Bros being Mexican.
This isn't an exhaustive list, given Dasha and others, but still, that's nice to see.

Thunder Rosa is relinquishing the TJPW International Princess championship, so no triple champ dreams! Understandable because the theme/rules of the title basically require TJPW talent vs. foreign wrestlers, and I don't see any joshi being available to AEW for months. There will be a tournament to decide the new champion on 10/10, 10/17 with the final being on Wrestle Princess at Tokyo Dome City Hall on 11/7.

Glad she's relinquishing willingly it if she cannot satisfy the conditions for defending it at this time.
Hint hint, Tessa.

Y'know, I don't think people are getting that the Mr Brodie Lee character isn't supposed to be an innvicible monster.

Just call the action ya damn carny For that matter, it's a little grating that a guy who's been actively involved in wrestling for over 30 years still defaults to references from the 80's. The dude was actually there for just about everything that's happened since. It's not too big a deal, given that there are some good reasons to reference that era, but it really makes me side-eye the guy.
