Norton wins via Powerbomb in 30 seconds. This is Norton's return from Japan and thus signifies the Summer of Powerbombs and Scott Norton's push

Lol, I’m going to check out that Thunder. It’s weird that Thunder then completely smokes most modern wrestling now. The inconsequential nature of Thunder makes it contemporarily competitive.

Without even looking at any of that show, my guess is that this is "hobby horse" Chavo (Pepe, was it)? Because inanimate objects are USUALLY a way of getting over pretty hot, see: Head, Moppy, Undertaker's urn, Cody's mustache, Hacksaw's 2x4, Mitch the Potted Plant.
The only person I don't remember it working for in any way was "Disqo" Inferno when he had the duck, his "visual aid". Nobody gave a shit. |

These vintage wrestling Twitter accounts keep posting Manami Toyota matches and I didn’t know anything about her but in all the clips it looks like she fucking ruled? Seems like a massive hole in my wrasslin appreciation |

Probably having something to do with my knowledge on 90s joshi wrestling was “oh I saw that lady wrestle Alundra Blayze once on Superstars”

Dude that move where she had Dynamite up like an electric chair and was holding her arms in an X and then went back into a pin was fucking sweet.

Dick Beyer coached wrestling at a rival high school where I grew up. Back then I had never even heard of the destroyer, butI still find it pretty cool. I also became friends with someone from that school in college and it turned out Beyer was one of the most beloved members of that community and a genuinely awesome human being. |

Maven's YouTube channel is fantastic. Tells lots of good stories, super transparent about his struggles, how much he was making, which guys he had good experiences with etc.

Didn’t most of their shows go to about 5 or 6 matches over the past year or so?

7 seems to be about the average they’ve gone for for the “b” shows, with the odd 6. I think there was a recent show that had 5 advertised and an “impromptu” match on the night.

As for the lack of straight one-on-one matches: Eh, with so few matches, I can see it being totally accidental. But maybe their thinking is to really emphasize the Rollins/Nakamura match? |

What a great way for young talent to learn their craft in a variety of ways and gain vital experience before it's beaten out of them in the Performance Center.

May have been true at one point, but now people actually get better at the Performance Center. Look at Julius Creed for example. Dude wrestles like Kenny Omega on crack, but somehow tries to make it make sense. Wrestling outside WWE isn’t very good.

Always wondered how Bret would have been in that. I was a big Bret fan but even as a youngling I thought that was the weirdest thing ever and that he was probably just weird and awkward in it
