Angle, Taker, Reigns, being kicked in the dick. Say what you will about Brock but he sells a kick to the dick like nobody’s business.

No mention of a cage match stood out to me. Really weird to not have that in since it's included with most other wrestling games. Even the NES had a game with steel cage matches, really odd thing to leave out.

Easy E is weird in that he often has very good insight that he no doubt learned from running WCW and sometimes he admits his faults in that regard, but other times not so much. In this case he is quite likely correct though. “Who the f*** is Ace Steele anyway?” is a perfectly cromulent point to make. Ace Steele might have the honor of being the biggest nobody to have the biggest impact on a company in wrestling history.

I've wanted to support this company since day 1, because I love the Elite and have for a long time. However, with the way TK has handled Punk, Miro, Andrade, Rosa, MJF, and other situations, I just absolutely can't bring myself to do it. He is, legitimately, the weakest leader I have ever seen in wrestling. Say what you want about Vince or Trips, but every single one of those douchebags above would rightfully be sitting in a "Where are they now" file for the remainder of their careers if they had ever acted so disrespectfully toward the roster or bosses. Also, if you're curious about why it's always been important to have locker room leaders like the Undertaker to help police the guys themselves, study the AEW locker room since pretty much the beginning. They have never had ANYONE who is actually a strong, respected locker room leader, and it shows. You think f***ing Andrade is gonna go around sucker punching people if he has to worry about someone like UT getting to him? Nah. This company has 2 of the main things that killed WCW: Weak leadership and an out of control locker room. You do not, under any circumstance, got to hand it to the Undertaker. WWE has had so many instances you can name, but the one I just thought of was when JBL legitimately attacked The Blue Meanie in the ring on PPV. Nothing happened to JBL. Stevie Richards damn near caved JBL’s skull in with a legit brutal chairshot a week or so later on Smackdown.

So what are some of the best shows that are going to be on Max? $15.99 per month is a bit steep but if there’s something worthwhile on there besides AEW PPVs then I’ll probably subscribe. Succession, The Leftovers, Sopranos, Game of Thrones, Last of Us, White Lotus, South Park, Peacemaker, The Wire, Curb Your Enthusiasm. In my opinion, it is the best streaming service as far as content. Deadwood, Chernobyl, Watchmen, Show Me A Hero…the list goes on and on!

The last thing I remember MTV News covering was Woodstock 99. But man, when you heard that intro music, you paid attention.

Back when I read Marvel comics, they shoehorned Wolverine in everywhere. then later they did it again with Deadpool >_> Though Deadpool usually pointed out he was only there to sell more copies >_> Then DC did it with Harley Quinn.

A small thing I thought was weird: why spend a ton of money to license a Springsteen song and then just play it over the back half of the credits? I mean it was nice to have a great song to listen to while waiting for that last scene but that’s “Badlands”, man. Put that shit front and center.

Seth Rollins and Finn Balor are ready, brother. As are Dom Dom and Mami. I saw that last week marked a year since Rhea joined Judgment Day, which means a year ago pretty much everyone had written Dom Dom off as a completely lost cause. That’s one of the greatest parts of pro wrestling to me, how sometimes you just throw two people into a program and they turn it into magic.

I really liked Bayley’s attire at the PPV. I thought it was a fresh & bold choice, kudos to her!

Aside from his final vignette with R-Truth, Rob Gronkowski’s entire WWE career took place in the Performance Center.

One of Gunn’s farewell GotG tweets mentioned how much he loved working with Pom Klementieff and how she should be in more projects so I wouldn’t be surprised to see her show up somewhere in the new DCverse eirher.

There should be an agreement that Jeff Jarrett the actual person works for AEW but Double J the character is always allowed to appear at any show in Nashville or Memphis for any other promotion.

Clobberin Time is really fun two issues in. Joe Fixit wrapped but didn't advertise another series probably cuz of Peter David's medical troubles. Hope he gets well soon I was thrilled that they had Ben mention the time Logan sliced half his damn face off. I grew up on that DeFalco/Ryan FF run.

Apparently it’s set for around $110 million this weekend, similar to Ant-Man. That’s already kicking off the “THE MCU IS FINISHED!!” choir on some corners of the Internet. I’m not sure about that but I can definitely see word of mouth about how dark/grim the movie is putting a dent in its family audience. I’m old enough to remember when Spider-Man did over $100 million in a weekend and that was considered an unbelievable achievement. Now C-tier Marvel characters are doing that and it’s seen as a disappointment. Spider-Man made $100 million in a weekend on a $140 million budget. GotG made $110 on a $250 million budget.
