Saturday night is alright for fighting! Double trios actions with witches, sapphic friends, fists and flips and more. Maybe Stokely coming to the ring on Megan Bayne's shoulders like Jungle Boy. Who knows but here's a preview for #AEW Collision #wrestlesky🤼‍♂️

Played the Fallout #ttrpg tonight and played a ghoul that combined 2 of my favourite horror influences.

Derry, who was a teenager from Maine when the bombs dropped is caught in state of arrested development. With their glasses were destroyed and unable to read for 50 years, he's pissed

Congrats to Mercedes Mone for winning her 10th championship.

Expect criticism and revisionism on how the belts are meaningless. Spoiler- this isn't new. What is is how the belt collector trope is being utilized compared to the past.

Definetly have a love/hate relationship with my dyslexia right now. Without it, I wouldn't have my work ethics, my determination, my creativity and insights. Yet, I would love not to have to spend double or more of the time and effort proof reading and adulting only to realise I've missed something

I like to be transparent and honest when I make mistakes, regardless of the size or impact. I genuinely thought AEW Collision aired yesterday and made a mistake in stating Wednesday night in this week's preview. Doubly disappointed this evening to realise I was wrong. I will try to do better

The says something about the myth and idea that WWE is the dream place to work given Steel is a huge WWE fan girl and her gimmick/character is tailored for WWE. Wish her the best because she's awesome

#AEW have a range of options for their inaugural Women's World Tag Team champions. Beyind various teams there are stories and new creative avenues to explore but also risks. So here's an evaluation:

Evaluating AEW’s Options for the Inaugural AEW Women’s World Tag Team Champions

AEW Women's Tag Team Titles are finally here. Here, we evaluate the best options for the inaugural team to win the coveted gold.

James Writes Wrestling @writejameswrite.bsky.social · 2d

There's options, room and desire from fans and the wrestlers but not the will it seems to consistently do it

James Writes Wrestling @writejameswrite.bsky.social · 2d

Interesting idea for the #AEW... Many of us have wanted a women's C2... so, what about doing a women's tag C2 to crown the inaugural Women's World Tag Team champions?

More chances for storytelling, match-ups, and two similar but slightly different round robins simultaneously? #wrestlesky 🤼

The wider issue with the Death Riders for plenty of fans wasn't about Mox but story consistency and the desire to move away from the repetitive concept that #AEW, in a kayfabe, was stuck in a fake identity crisis caused by CM Punk's exits and comments. 🤼‍♂️

#AEW Dynamite done I'm glad Kyle won and that TK learned from history and stuck a Time Cop reference in. PAC remains a sexy bastard and his chemistry with Cassidy means I will never get bored of their matches and combine genius. Felt this week had elements the Anniversary show sometimes missed 🤼‍♂️

James Writes Wrestling @writejameswrite.bsky.social · 3d

Moxley is such a clear character that he cuts both ways. When creative is strong and his actions and words align, no one else feels like 80s enigmatic action hero hard man and it's incredibly believable. Yet it doesn't, he and the character feel out of place and time and he feels unbelievable

No creative writing meeting and no more tutoring. Time to catch up on #AEW Dynamite 🤼‍♂️

After reaching the brim of my mental and emotional bucket yesterday evening, rewatching last week's Dynamite six man tag match with The Opps and Page allowed me to decompress enough to talk about the day. Graps help formulate thoughts into words 🤼‍♂️

I'd love to see Santos Escobar, formerly El Hijo del Fantasma and King Cuerno in #AEW eventually. Right now, I'd rather AEW focus on the wrestlers they have, and that Escobar/Cuerno readjusts to wrestling outside of WWE. Also, still needs to diversify how luchadores are booked/presented
