I've never seen him do that on Smackdown (though his chops DO look vicious enough that I could see that happen) and I don't watch NXT. And let's be honest, "Walter" is and always will be a terrible wrestling name. Aside from the Muppet, the most famous Walters are Matthau and Kronkite, and I'm reasonably sure that, were either one still alive, I could take in a fight. ... Well, Matthau seems like the kind who'd cheat a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Matthau seems like the kind who'd cheat a bit. That's very fair and now that I've seen Jericho vs Ishii, I can't think of anyone else whose ever bled that way from chops. Walter/Gunther has made people bleed from chops. Not gushers like Jericho had, but broken skin and blood nonetheless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milamber Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 - Top Flight vs FTR was my MOTN. - Hobbs promo was fire. - Jericho/Claudio is uninspired but at least the the stipulation is fun. - Punished Toni. - Darby vs Henry was solid. - I'm enjoying Athena's heel turn. - Shida vs Aminata was OK. Women's squash matches are a waste but at least they set up a feud with BunnyFord. - La Facción vs Dark Order was solid. Post-match beatdown was the best part. Unmasked Preston Vance replacing Andrade. Sad -1 Crowd was annoying with the What chants for Claudio and loud wooing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaysin Posted November 26, 2022 Author Share Posted November 26, 2022 I have a bad feeling Cash is going to get sick of Dax talking about how he's one of the best wrestlers ever without acknowledging Cash. Dax vs Bryan should be a blast next Wednesday tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a semi-regular occurrence in Minoru Suzuki and Tomohiro Ishii matches when they get in chop-fest mode. Watch enough New Japan and you will see quite a few.

Jaysin Posted December 1, 2022 Author Share Posted December 1, 2022 AEW signing AR Fox is super bittersweet. On one hand, he's a hell of a talent and super underrated. On the other hand, the roster is so stacked and bloated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milamber Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 - Didn't expect Hangman to challenge Mox. Hot start to the show. - Dax vs Danielson was great. - Ricky wants all the bling. Mox & Page still fighting backstage. - JAS/BCC segment was fun. - Fox vs Joe (c) was good. Wardlow won't win the title back with Hobbs on the prowl. - Big Burberry Belt! MJF might want to keep Danielson's name out of his mouth. All the WWE shoutouts lol. MJF Regal stretcher job was perfect. - Starkz/Egon feud continues. - Jay vs Willow was good. Ruby! - No one wants to hear QT talk lol. Jade literally looking like money and talking a big game. Bow Wow still simping. - Rampage card looks weak. - The Elite vs Death Triangle III was my MOTN. They did well to make this match feel different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milamber Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Rampage was a show that happened lol. It really needs a better time slot. So much good talent TK could be using on it but he doesn't bother some weeks. If he doesn't care about the ratings he might as well put 2 women's matches on it every week.

Matt_Black Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Still, the main event was fun. Loved seeing the Best Friends and Danhausen dress like actual lumberjacks and try to bring axes to the ring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milamber Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 - Diamond Ring Battle Royale was solid. Killer promo from Ricky. - Technically a Miro sighting. Mox not mentioning Danielson... - Darby vs Joe (c) was great. Joe looked like a monster. - Claudio & YUTA vs Garcia & Hager was good. Claudio carried the match. Regal's final lesson. - Hayter/Shida hype. - The Baddies vs Blue, Rayne & Hogan was solid. - TK not phoning in Rampage this week. - FTR vs The Acclaimed was my MOTN. Glad it was a clean finish.

milamber Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 - Mox vs Takeshita was my MOTN. Mox bleeding for Rampage and being booed lol. Hangman! - Hobbs needs to win his next feud. - Bunny vs Shida (c) was good. Dueling chants. Hayter! - The Firm vs Jobbers was OK. - Trent vs Cassidy (c) was great. Dustin! I expect to see more UK talent being used before AEW's debut there. Best Rampage in a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milamber Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) - Dorada vs Cobb - *** - Shinobi Shadow Squad vs 2Point0 - *** - Adora vs Willow - *** 1/4 - Top Flight vs The Kingdom - *** 1/2 - Fox & Christian vs RUSH & Dralistico - Shame about the finish. - *** 1/4 - Athena vs Martinez (c) - New Champion! - **** - Swerve in Our Glory vs Shane Taylor Promotions - I hope Taylor & Griffey get signed. - **** - The Embassy vs Dalton & The Boys (c) - *** 1/2 - YUTA vs Garcia (c) - My favorite Pure Title match so far. **** 1/4 - The Briscoes vs FTR (c) - MOTN. So violent even the ref had a crimson mask 😮 - **** 3/4 - Juice vs Joe (c) - *** 1/2 - Claudio vs Jericho (c) - In retrospect this would have worked better if Jericho had beaten Gresham and this was the climax of Claudio's arc. **** I hope FITE pick up ROH and add it to AEW Plus which I already pay for.

milamber Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) - The Elite vs Death Triangle IV was their weakest so far but still great. Nice injury/hammer angle leading to a stipulation. - MJF the Star Maker with a top promo. - Interrupting an Acclaimed rap equals easy heat. Sammy is going to break Garcia lol. - Cage vs Jungle Boy was good. HOOK! - BCC still going strong. The Factory got whipped. New HoB theme goes hard. - Hayter/Shida hype! - Jericho vs Andretti was fun. They subverted expectations and the crowd were hot. - Ricky killing it with his promo game. - Tay vs Ruby was great. Loved the intensity. - Sad Hangman. - Starks vs MJF was my MOTN. MJF couldn't put Ricky away without cheating. American Dragon! One of my favorite Dynamites this year.

milamber Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 (edited) - Sammy vs Mox was my MOTN... but Rampage is not worth bleeding for. Hangman! - FTaRse. - DMD vs Skye was solid. Shida! - That was the best Preston Vance has ever sounded. - Wardlow vs Prime was OK. King of TV with an intense promo. - Kip, Seven, Butcher & Blade vs Dustin & Best Friends was very good.
