Season 1 of Powerrr was awesome!

Ricky Starks, Eddie Kingston, Thunder Rosa, Eli Drake... it's honestly shocking how many talents bloomed out of the manure that Powerrr never cultivated anything in.

I wonder where they'll land next month... streaming on Rumble maybe? I'm not sure if that'd be better or worse.

I don't see a timer at the bottom of their website - instead I see this line of text:

https://blackmesa.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/SampleinGC.png DAMN! You guys are quick... Didn't even have time to put the right image up yet.

That SampleinGC.png image is accessible, and is a picture of a vial in a testing chamber of some sort. The image also has metadata attached; a description that is a string of morse code:

It also means I'm usually watching everything the day after, because I'm not staying up to 5am for PPVs. Mind you, I'm still probably staying up to watch some other rubbish instead.

Just followed you from my mastodon account, I don't bother posting there much, use it more like a news feed than a social media @[email protected]

I believe there's an official federated (if you're not completely anti-meta) AEW account here: @[email protected]

Not sure if it makes more or less posts than the official bird site one you've got a mirror of there - I don't go to that area of the internet any more.

I'm pro-"toots". Most people's comments are glitter-fart worthy at best within 140 characters 😂

This is where Regal shows up and explains that calendars are different in kayfabe, I guess.

 

Top 10:

  1. Cody Rhodes (WWE)

What day of the week do you think it'll land on?
Maybe it's just RoH getting a sneaky televised Thursday slot, instead of HonorClub?

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

Yeah, it kinda suits all three promotions to just take the big bag of cash, doesn't it?

WWE has always wanted a solid presence in Japan, and TNA would probably just be fun for them to burn to the ground, because they could already have their pick of anyone on that roster if they wanted.

Four tiers of developmental sounds like a very WWE thing to do, too. (OVW > TNA > NXT > WWE)

So could that mean TNA, NOAH and Marigold possibly agreed to deals with a similar caveat attached?

Thanks for going above and beyond, as usual!

Is the audio borked on this, or is it just me?

From their eighth album, "Come Clarity" (2006)

 

From the album "What Doesn't Kill Me..." (2009)

 

From their covers album "Skeletons in the Closet" (2009)

 

I'm always around a month+ behind with NJPW content, because they just release too much to keep up!

I've finally reached the Best of Super Jr. 30 (I'm on May 16/Day 4 right now) but I'm wondering if anyone can tell me which matches are worth watching and which are perfectly skippable on my todo list, because I'm aiming to be up to date for Forbidden Door II and I know I've a lot to get through in the next week!

I know I could probably just skip to the Finals Night of BOSJ, but what can I say, I'm a bit of a completionist.

Events I still have to watch:

  • May 17: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 5
  • May 18: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 6
  • May 19: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 7
  • May 21: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 8
  • May 21: Resurgence
  • May 23: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 9
  • May 24: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 10
  • May 26: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 11
  • May 28: Best Of The Super Jr. 30 - Day 12
  • Jun 04: Dominion
  • Jun 09: All Together Again
  • Jun 10: New Japan Road - Road To Strong
  • Jun 17: New Japan Road - Road To Strong
  • Jun 18: New Japan Road - Road To Strong
  • Jun 25: AEW X NJPW: Forbidden Door II
