Oh, hey, they remembered that the ROH Women's Championship is a thing!

That is an amazing concept and I hate that I already know Lee Van Cleef as a ninja is nowhere near as cool as it could be because most 80s TV sucked at fight scenes.
If you would like to see how well it was executed, four episodes were packaged together as movies, Master Ninja and Master Ninja II, and both were featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000.

Not since The Idaho Punisher have people been so fascinated by the lore!

So, I've been doing a North Texas Women's Wrestling game, using many of the characters from the latest expansion; Ramona Diaz is the inaugural Dallas-Fort Worth champion, Ai Kon has good tag chemistry with Suki Flash, and Grace Harper took on Faith Force as a protege, which makes me smile.

I disagree. Last of Us S1 is a travel show with very few recurring characters. Despite that most of the side characters have been memorable even with limited screen time, IMO. That's down to the quality writing and acting.
They used to do shows like this all the time in the 70s and 80s. While there are many excellent examples, the one that I immediately think of is... uh... Master Ninja, starring Lee Van Cleef.

Not crazy about Jey siding with Jimmy. It was safe, predictable, uninspired, and if I may be so bold, lazy.

Orange Cassidy, the All Atlantic champion who beat PAC for the belt and has the most non-Jade title defenses in AEW history? Who, after his feud with Jericho, obliterated the HFO and then beat Adam Cole in a Light's Out match? Adam Cole, who has been a front and center poster boy for AEW and has only lost to OC and Hangman?
The All-Atlantic win was almost TWO years after the win over Jericho, and I can't say as Orange "obliterated" the HFO, as the feud went on for months (and I said Jericho's feuds overstay their welcome) until Matt Hardy went over at the end of it.

That was one of the loudest crowd pops I've heard on RAW in some time, and it was for a hug.

I mean... Eh? Orange Cassidy technically went over Jericho in their feud, and he really didn't do anything of note for a good long while afterward, except lose title matches. Claudio hasn't done a whole lot after beating Jericho either. Admittedly, blame for both of those scenarios lie more at the feet of Tony Khan than Jericho, but....
-
So, question about the Five Woman Love Hotel Deathmatch- the competitors were Maneater, Fujiko Mushashibo, Dr. Yumaniac, Skulletta, and Masakist, and Violence Jill was the one who came up with it and (possibly) booked it, correct?
-
As long as Starks and Jericho can now move on. Like pretty much every Jericho feud in AEW, this one overstayed it's welcome, though admittedly not as badly as some other Jericho feuds.

Meanwhile Quadruple B are definitely the Hardy Boyz.
I would peg the Bumfholes as being closer to the Hardys, especially with Randy becoming "Unleashed".

Any suggestions for Kaede Sugiyama and Ochiyo Iijima?

Events in general seem to make more money, at least in my experience.

I would set it as either a cinematic match or a special set since it was fought at an actual Japanese love hotel (with zero permits), with whatever implements your sick little hearts desire and first one to score a pin or submission wins.
It is a shame there's no way to include the platypus or the weird German-sounding (Or possibly Drusselstein?) pharmacist that was with him or why they were there. Oh well, that's what imagination is for.
Of course, I now have an idea for an Australian worker who heard vague details about the now infamous match, and decided to be a wrestling platypus, with the idea that she's THAT platypus. Of course, she'll team with Koala Mask.

I noticed one thing I forgot to do was to add the Ultrakillers tag team so if you want to do it manually the team consists of Violence Jill and Demon Lady Beatrice. They should be set as individuals.
Any suggested experience?

Noticed the same thing. Plus that imported character from the RockVerse doesn't automatically seem to match name with portrait, I had to set it manually. Not sure what's going on there.
Glad it's not just me then.
-
Looking over the database before I start importing, and it seems that Kasuga is missing a picture, unless she has a different name.
Also, the company bio for Wild Lotus says that every worker must have a gimmick, but the selected product does not require gimmicks. -
I think the attack on Best Friends is a set up for FTR to be surprise entrants in the battle royal tomorrow night.

I watched a highlight package of Elimination Chamber, and there were so many spears. Far too many for me to respect it as a finish. Most of them looked pretty gentle.
I remember there was a WhatCulture video about the worst finishers (not Simon Miller doing it, the guy with glasses), and he described Edge's spear along the lines of "Edge tenderly embraces his opponent and gently lowers him to the ground."

At one point years ago I would have agreed with you, but you're in the minority on this one.
He's a good wrestler who keeps getting presented as a great wrestler. He's like a skinny Triple H.
Again, if he leaned into the pirate/ sailor thing a bit more, but no.

I feel like Adam Cole's return date was the actual big announcement and the new show thing was tacked on. That's how I'm trying to rationalize it anyway
And that would mean something if Adam Cole wasn't the most overrated overhyped "star" on the roster.
-
That may have been the most underwhelming "big announcement" in AEW history. Unless All Access explains why Adam Cole doesn't play up the pirate gimmick more, that's gonna be a hard pass for me.

Corey Graves is okay. Certainly, he'll say something at least once a week that has me rolling, like this gem a few weeks ago- "I keep expecting Otis to burst through a brick wall and pour me a refreshing beverage."

Both available to purchase in the new Gizmoplex streaming service! (I got both as part of one of the Kickstarter bundles, though I can't remember if it was the initial one, the second one, or one of the upgrades when they made the stretch goals.)
