    When do you think things will go back to "Normal" (2019 standards)?

    Since 2020, things have generally been shitty on a global scale. I don't think I need to elaborate. And there's talk of a looming recession as a response to the current rampant inflation. When do you think things will go back to "Normal", by 2019 standards?

    Sports entrance themes

    It's most well known in wrestling, but there are plenty of other sports which use entrance themes. That said, pro-wrestling is one of the few where they have custom themes & entrance videos, and it's a big part of getting the crowd excited for them. Xia's is still one of my favourites. I...
