Remember how Malakai started off there (in AEW)? Proper phenom-like.
Then they had Cody beat him clean within a fortnight. The Scouse Bastards

Yeah he was a badass when he came in.
Seemed like this has been on the cards for AGES tbh, thereās been so many reports about him wanting out and not wanting to lay down for people etcā¦ definitely been a strange run.

Against my better judgement Rollins/Punk highlights were on my YT feed and I decided to have a look.
What the fuck was that ending. Why is wrestling so stupid now.
Obviously itās not meant for me anymore but how do people watch that.
Perhaps itās a case of I keep choosing to wrong times to take a peek at WWE but they still do stupid stuff.

I was amazed to see Punk embracing that nonsense. Heās a talent with a real appreciation of how to build a genuinely enthralling match. Rollins less so, he has some previous with this stuff despite being an outstanding performer. But there are so many more ways to make the close of a match exciting than endless and increasingly more ridiculous kickouts.

Similar thoughts. Match had Rollins fingerprints all over it.
On Seth in general, where does he even fit now for Wrestlemania?I feel like his stock has fallen a lot. Iād be prioritising getting Jey, Sami, Drew and KO on the card first over him.
Thoughts on the Penta debut?
It was good. Liked that they gave him some time to speak afterwards.
It was a better āwrestlingā show than last week Iād say. Still, hoping for better ones as we head to Mania
Music aside I enjoyed his debut! He looks cool and heāll very easily get over i reckon. Hope it works out for him over there for him and Fenix when he joins too.

Iāve never heard of Penta, or the guy he fought and Iām just dipping back in after a long long time away but it was a great match by my eye.
Chad Gable is incredible. I just like to think of him as a modern day Angle (obviously Angle is tonnes better) hes got the amateur wrestling Olympian background, can also have comic relief as well if needs be.
Iāve never seen Penta work, I donāt watch indy wrestling but have heard great stuff about him.
Do they still do some of that? It all seems very serious from what Iāve watched so far.
Chad Gable was definitely impressive.
To an extent yeah, Chad Gable turned heel last year so heās toned it down and is a lot more serious, but his Alpha Academy stuff he did a lot of comedic stuff, believe he did a promo with Angle where Angle doused him in milk in a throwback to 2001.
Yep
