Heard I am supposed to repost banger tweets, but the nearest I ever had to a hit was too close to simping for a billionaire, so nope. But if I can *choose* what to be associated with over here, it’s making so many bracelets for AEW that I had to strap them to my clothes…

My favourite wrestler is better than your favourite wrestler.

Hey @wrestlechaps.bsky.social, Your mambo-related wishes are apparently my command…

Quick reminder to the ‘Max Caster so dumb he didn’t see this coming’ crowd…. TNA CLIPPED THE RAP. They put it on two platforms, had it up for hours, and I think RT’d engagement with it. They might not have okayed that line, but I bet he was encouraged to be as out of pocket as possible.

I resent being made to defend an insufferable edgelord AGAIN, but let’s not pretend he is the idiot here. TNA hired a man with a clear pattern of behaviour, told him to resurrect that gimmick and then CELEBRATED WHAT HE SAID. If they hadn’t, there is a chance no one would have even known about it.

Should never have made it onto the show. Or been clipped and put on socials by our own team. Or had positive reactions to it qrt’d for half a day. It was just one single oversight, we promise.

TNA apologizes for Max Caster's line about Riyadh in his rap at Bound for Glory and states that he will no longer be wrestling for the promotion

As tiresome as it is to hear Andy Burnham saying "innovation nation" over and over, it's arguably even worse to hear this talk of industrialisation. We have great, valuable export industries in the arts, TV, the BBC and higher education. All are being filleted; thousands out of work, and what for?

Relying on Tom to make his life miserable 🧡 (or, at least not let his endless lies go unchallenged 😭)

RevPro needed a commentator that was talented, intelligent and quick witted, who could make Andy Quildan’s life easier. They weren’t available, so they’ve booked me instead! SEE YA SUNDAY LONDON!

News for those who have better things to do than watch the RevPro wrap up (i.e. EVERYONE). High Stakes 2027 will be the Saturday night before Dynasty in Liverpool (Olympia?) Arena…

Fun fact, hearing Maffew talk on the classic smackdown review about being a bi wrestling fan in 2000-2001 was a large part of why that podcast clicked so much with me. And a large part of why I got back into wrestling. Feels like a good day to shout that out 🫶

IT'S BI-DAY AND YOU KNOW WHAT MEANS

So, I hear the AI companies are asking for a slow down because something might escape and destroy the world. I wonder if it's just that they've realised they simply can't build the thing they promised, and this feels like a way to make it look like they didn't fuck up?
