Irish guy who is unsure about a lot of things. Rarely has an original thought in his head. Loves pro wrestling and other nerd stuff. Nerd stuff like sports.

Don’t care about the booster packs, I just wanted the tin.

Never even considered the acrylic stand craze for nerdy merchandise in Japan means a lot of unique tabletop stuff is available over there. Akihabara’s going to have stuff I want after all.

The entire day today has looked like a storm will begin any minute now.

These last few years for Xbox have felt like a waste of time and money for everyone.

Slept well after all of the NFL I experienced yesterday. Now today I’m switching over to see how the Mets screwed up their season in the MLB.

Hello from the nosebleeds.

What's gotten into the Ryder Cup crowd to be this rowdy? It can't be the score, there's been previous times it's been one sided like this and fans didn't get aggravated this much.

We’re approaching a week since the show and still no press release from either WWE or ESPN about the viewership.

I got an NFL ticket for Dublin after all. Stoked for this!

It exposes that veterans don’t really understand much storytelling outside their wheelhouse. Riho’s style is she moves 3 steps ahead and uses death by a thousand cuts to wear down the opponent which then makes her dives and double stomps deal effective damage. But who else in USA ever did that? Rey?

I keep forgetting how often they run shows out of there. I think they’re early in the day too so that’s a good suggestion.

JamieOD @jamieod.bsky.social · 19d

Probably going to get hyped up for the Dublin NFL game this week even though I don’t have a ticket yet.

JamieOD @jamieod.bsky.social · 19d

Got my ticket sorted for Stardom at Sumo Hall at the end of the year. Wrestle Kingdom ticket is next on the list once that’s available. DDT and TJPW for that week is in my schedule too.

This is hot stuff. Sets up the match and motivations for everyone involved within two minutes.

AEW All Out is this Saturday—and let’s just say my love for Cowboy Bebop finally found its moment. This Toni Storm story fit perfectly with that vibe, so after a ton of rotoscoping, mattes, and late-night creativity,“4 Ways to Die” was born.

This might honestly be my favorite package Ive done! #AEW

€64 for a ticket to a big arena wrestling show at the end of the year feels like a bargain now.

The Virtual Boy news from today’s Nintendo Direct was the hardest I’ve laughed in ages.

This isn’t going to delay the PWI 500 will it?

If it’s the ones I had (black singlets instead of green) then no, no hats or accessories.

American wrestling companies relying on the UK for successful TV tapings. TNA were genuinely ahead of their time for that.

Kind of amazed the inside of The O2 in London is a gigantic shopping centre that just so happens to have an arena slap bang in the middle of it. Makes it way more relaxing to relax and eat a meal in there while waiting for a show to start.

Solved a mystery with my parents tonight over how their latest phone bill went through the roof. A phone number from one of my Mom’s friends accidentally had the wrong international prefix selected so the company thought she’s been calling somebody in Iraq instead of Ireland.

Dances With Dudley did a tour in Big Japan’s early years with Bull Pain.

There are times watching Dropout shows where it’s like I’ve been introduced to a friend’s other social group and I end up feeling out of place. As if the parasocial nature of the company is actually having the opposite effect on me. But they nailed the chaotic comedy for the Game Changer finale.

Had a quick look around Dublin Comic Con earlier.
