How does 4 hour tapings for a 1 hour show work?
They tape multiple weeks at once
They tape the same show 4 times until something sticks
they're monthly tapings that split into 4 episodes

Oh
Angry Grimace
Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Both he and Blake got lost when they split up because their entire gimmick was mostly defined by being managed by Alexa Bliss.
Given that the gimmick was basically them kind of in-fighting to impress Alexa it would have been kinda weird to keep it going now that Murphy is engaged to Alexa.
The hype around Ben K died down, I think mainly due to Dragon Gate being a bit cold overall but now that they are picking it back up again, it's crazy how good this guy is 2 years in. He's got the poise, the presence, the look of a total star and is putting it together in ring frighteningly fast in a very demanding style.
But he's got the Shibata shoot headbutt as one of his signature spots now so COME THE FUCK ON JAPAN.

Sabbatelli and Riddick are seriously the most boring ass wrestlers. It's like 03-04 when they had all these 1 note looking wrestlers.

Can You Feel My Heart is the best Pete Dunne theme
I don't get it, he's been very open about wanting to wrestle
very healthy impulses, normal brain man, nothing to see here

No time for that, we gotta have Ziggler make entrances for 10 minutes with no conclusion!

Not sure what's better: strawberry milk or chocolate
every time this gets brought up, I instantly think of that shit video Vince made that most people call it "the beginning of the Attitude Era" where he says "we don't like to insult the audience's intelligence (as opposed to WCW)"
yet he's been doing that ever since

It was a solid match. NXT is slowly turning into dragongate gate with all the factions
Dragon Gate - Masaaki Mochizuki vs YAMATO (c) Dream Gate Championship

It's free wrestling.
Watch it. Watch it. Watch it. Watch it. Watch it. Watch it. Watch it. Watch it. Watch it.
EDIT: Don't be put off by the video length, the match is 24:20 long, not 40 minutes.

Actual match is like 24~ minutes, don't worry. The extra length is for post-match celebration + promos.

The trouble was never rest holds and always that wrestlers have forgotten how to make holds compelling - or, really, wrestling's changed so drastically that the style isn't useful anymore. Audiences won't react for it like they did 50-60 years ago.
There's an amazing Baba vs Destroyer match from the 70's that's built entirely around a headlock and is generally considered a masterpiece, but most would probably find it boring and lack the patience to appreciate the work they're putting into the hold. Like that infamous Bryan vs Cesaro match in PWG that's all Bryan trying to escape a headlock, lots of people hated it.

DDT Apartment wrestling goes for 40 minutes or so and is better than most of anything anyone will see ever.

It's good. Most people in this thread only watch WWE. That said, sometimes WWE is better than DDT. Conceptually though, DDT is one of the best.
