For what it's worth, Fire Pro World was our licensed NJPW/Stardom game. Even a sequel to the Suda51 game (although that DLC sucked ass, story-wise).

I think the devs for the game also fucked off since they opened up the custom move stuff.

And it looks like Avery Good quit the business finally.

I'm suprised they didnt add more DLC to World such as adding more match types like a royal rumble or a fall counts anywhere

I’ve bitched at length regarding how JR just needs to fucking retire, because when he’s bad he tanks the whole night. I’m not gonna tread old ground, I’m just gonna hope TK quietly lets him go - that or in one of his coke binges pulls a Vince regarding JR. Least that’d be funny to watch the fallout.

Honestly, I feel they should’ve done two things to unfuck the last 30ish minutes of Dynamite - scrap the Varsity Blonds/House of Black bit (this whole Julia Hart thing has long passed the point where I feel most people would’ve given half a shit), and swap theWomen’s Match with Fenix v Dante. Gives both matches a bit more time, and I don’t know about you but I’d rather watch two people who casually tell physics to fuck itself as the Main rather than a heatless women’s match that probably only happened because Purrazzo and her big ass didn’t want to sign.

Silver Lining - Darby vs Jeff should be a car crash, considering between the two of them I don’t think there’s an ounce of self preservation. Even if JR shits the bed and they cut his mic, it should be a fun watch

If someone doesn't get broken in half I'll be disappointed.
One thing they always do with these major matches like the ROH women's title is have the promos, video packages, and vignettes on Youtube. It's not hard to get rid of one piss break segment and cut Jericho to show some of them on television where they belong. Obviously Tony doesn't care about such things. He just wants the meat and cheese, he doesn't want the bread that holds it all together and keeps your hands clean.

Yeah I think fire pro world was a vanity project for one of the original devs from the old games. the steam workshop for downloading custom parts is such a clusterfuck it's so confusing.

Yeah, it seemed more of a "can I do it?" than a "should I do it?".

There was a huge amount of support off the Steam Greenlight and early access, enough to warrant an endorsement from NJPW (I can imagine Kenny had a hand in that too), console releases (it was originally pitched only for PC), and all the other additional DLC as separate deals (Stardom was still a separate entity at the time and not owned by Bushiroad and Suda51 probably wouldn't ask to be attached to the project since he was busy with his own projects at the time like No More Heroes 3).

They built a solid game around simple assets that the fans themselves could edit and everything else was built around that. It's what the AEW game SHOULD be as far as build.

The AEW Rampage fast nationals are in... 319k. The final number will probably be closer to 400k. I know there was a time change, but oof.

Tfw the Friday Night Death Slot still gets you more viewers.

You just know some people are going to spin this and move goalposts, but I’m honestly surprised Rampage is still going. Just nuke one of the Darks, record Rampage after Dynamite, and put it on Youtube/Fite/wherethefuckever. Hell, I expect at least Step 1 of that to happen when/if Khan is able to get RoH a TV slot, if only to cut back on his coke spending…
 
Apparently the Briscoes are gonna be a part of Impact's roster; currently going against VBD for the Tag Titles. Mia Yim also returned to Impact, this time with her Asian wigger gimmick.

ETA: Dem Boys won!

On surely completely unrelated news, someone just bought half of all the available coke in downtown Jacksonville. :story:

Good to see that Impact doesn't care about the Briscoes past. Mia Yim is also back there.
Authors of Pain members have set up a promotion. This seems to be mostly for the Dubai show.
Big E's C1 isn't healing well and may need fusion surgery.
Kaun has also signed with AEW and ROH.
Next week on Rampage we'll have Riho vs Ruby Soho for the quarterfinals. Hard to tell who will win that match. Kenny's favourite Joshi or the woman who came with free music.
Willie Mack and Jonah have left Impact. Those two would do really well on a new ROH.

Eddie Kingston's Bone-Chilling Phone Call to Chris Jericho | AEW Rampage, 5/6/22

This is one of the big problems I have with Kingston, how the guy is presented. He’s presented as this tough NYC street thug type when he is not that at all. He’s not scary, or intimidating in the slightest. He needs to be a cowardly heel, not a tough anti hero face.
The gif of Ryback eating chips is the reaction I’d have if Eddie Kingston called me on the phone and said all that.

TL/DR: Kingston isn’t tough or scary Tony, stop presenting him that way.

Here comes Anonymous “Don’t say anything bad about AEW and especially Eddie Kingston or I’ll spam every post you make with a bad emoji” Fluhre to the rescue.

Let the kid be a little bitch. I watch wrestling to be entertained not to have something masturbate to like he does. He just wants Lance Archer on television more often so he can polish one off every Wednesday night. There's porn for that man.
Eddie Kingston isn't even one of my favourite wrestlers. A guy out in Calgary is and he hasn't done shit in near a decade and he's one of those hardcore Liberal types you see on Twitter.

I’ll give Kingston credit - I believe that he believes what he’s saying on any given night. Is he the best person on the roster, ring work wise, fuck no - hell, I’ve said before it wouldn’t surprise me if he was hired just to make Mox happy.

At the very least, I’ll take an Eddie Promo over a Bucks or Jericho promo, but I wouldn’t be to upset if the guy went to being a Manager.

My point isn’t if he believes it, it’s that I don’t believe it. Now if Wardlow, or W Morissey or Lance Archer made threats like that, I’d be more inclined to believe them. Moxley is another example of someone who is believable, I’d genuinely be concerned if Jon Moxley threatened violence against me. Even a guy on the smaller side like Pac would be intimidating. But Kingston? Dude just ain’t got it in the tough guy department.


I agree that he’s kept because of his friendship with Moxley. I disagree on hearing him talk over Jericho, Jericho is great and I love hearing him say funny things.
Manager position is definitely where Kingston needs to be asap. A Dan Lambert position.
