why would kevin kelly do something like this

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Why would he say that about Hobbs, he got off light honestly

cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

kevin kelly blatantly tried to get hobbs to cheat what an evil man

this is why we need positive role models like don callis

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

Kelly is a jezebel!

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Statlander repping that Goodwrench swag

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Nascar chic

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

I love having Thunder Rosa back but I miss her old music

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

I still miss Rosa's old theme :/

i need the lady frost is all elite post pls

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

It's a crime she isn't already

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (6 replies)

It's about time we see Black in a singles match

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y (5 replies)

I think it might be Cody was his last singles match

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (4 replies)

I don't know if that's legit or not but it feels like it could be lol

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y (3 replies)

It really does lol

I'd have to actually check to be sure though

JelloBrains@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

I checked with CageMatch.... his last singles match before today, in AEW, was...

22.06.2022 All Elite Wrestling AEW All-Atlantic Title Qualifying: Malakai Black defeats Penta Oscuro (9:56)
AEW Dynamite #142 - TV-Show @ UWM Panther Arena in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 4 pts · 2y

Jesus thats long ago.

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

How did I forget that!

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I'm not sure Schiavone knows the name of Black's finisher. He called it a spinning heel kick...which it is, but isn't it called The End now?

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

He was technically correct, I think he might have just been mixing it up. Not that I think you should do that with someone's finisher.

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

He chose... poorly

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

Saturday! Saturday! Saturday! Saturday! Saturday! Saturday!

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Mark has no friends

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

But but that's not what Triple H said!

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

Deeb said y'all screw around too much

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Moriarty should do finger guns taunts non stop

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

It could be his version of Garcia's dance

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

😭😭Why no Still Tippin

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Danielson with very clamdigger like behavior

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

Very unbecoming of a clam

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

The Don Callis family is still going to interfere, there's no DQ

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Apparently they're banned from the building, at least according to AEW's website.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

I assume they will be fined/suspended if they interfere

cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

i love mark briscoe so much and the day he wins the title i'm gonna cry

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

same

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

I hope he does. That would be awesome.

cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 2y

the bullying and disrespect towards bryan danielson outrageous.

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Ngl, a part of me was hoping that little kid would start kicking Sammy lol.

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

Would have made my night lol

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (4 replies)

😂😂So as a jobber would you rather face Hobbs or Wardlow?

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

Probably Hobbs because I think a spine buster might be less painful than a powerbomb

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I'm gonna counter slightly to Tellum and Montagge and go with Wardlow.

Hobbs isn't taunt-spamming powerbombs nonstop and a spinebuster isn't as bad as one, but is also putting on a longer match and has other offence in it to beat the shit out of you.

A Wardlow match you gonna be prolapsing your colon from powerbombs but least it'll be over in 60 seconds since Wardlow only has 3 moves: powerbomb, wind-back-lariat thing he does, and his tug-at-my-straps taunt

As a jobber I feel Wardlow might give me 1 powerbomb, maybe 2 on a 50-50 chance (or 20 on the other.) Just feels better odds to me.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Yeah in kayfabe I'd take Wardlow. After a powerbomb or 2 your knocked out and he's just showboating

Hobbs gives you an extended beating/punishment before he finishes you. He's also taking his rough upbringing out on you while yelling at you

*Wardlow also has that fuck you knee if your stupid enough to go to the top rope

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Probably Hobbs. I'll take one spinebuster over twenty powerbombs any day lol. That said I like Hobbs more than Wardlow.

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Did Max give up on his rap lol

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I couldn't tell. The one time my feed went down tonight was right after he messed up lol

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

https://stream.new/v/zY8U004webBaYrPxg8MhzMTpANutNBd9gjXPDOR5v2X4

Apparently Max's dad died a couple weeks ago too, so that could be throwing him off.

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

This is what happens when I skip online/mid-show previews as a pro wrestling fan with ADHD: I find out I'm about to watch a Jun Akiyama match when I see the DDT logo appear at the beginning of his entrance lmao

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

I generally prefer not to know the card and then everything is a surprise!

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Are we getting some Malakai, Copeland and Sting tonight?

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Malakai yes. I'd be surprised about the other two.

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

At least Malaki!

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Come on Hobbs!

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Sounded like Deeb was subtly calling out Mercedes.

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

And Toni with that black and white line

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

True.

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (6 replies)

Alright, that was a fun match. I'm not big on Sammy but he always brings it in these no DQ matches.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (5 replies)

Him doing insane shit is the best part about him

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Completely agree. Can't deny he puts on a show.

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y (3 replies)

He's really got to stop trying to be a babyface

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

For sure. I thought his inclusion in the Callis Family was pretty solid but that ended quickly.

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

It was a good fit for him

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Needs to be heel, or no higher than a tweener.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Maybe Eddie is a bum

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

You're going to trust that clam digger?

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Hobbs threatening KK put a smile on my face and we're like 6 mins in!

Montagge@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 2y

You can't go wrong with Lady Frost as an emergency stand in. She's solid!

Montagge@kbin.earth · 2 pts · 2y

Fuck yeah Hobbs wins!

And without interference!

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Those guys are definitely plants lol

Montagge@kbin.earth · 2 pts · 2y

The disaster if he wasn't handed a prop bottle
