Fans of wrestling thread

Anyone else watching "Heels"?

I'm loving the writing; it seems pretty realistic & consistent with how I would imagine wrestlers talk outside of the ring. Sort of like Young Rock, but much, much darker.
meaning to watch but not seen it.

Also how are people finding CM punk in AEW atm?

I found All out a pretty neat PPV

I have to admit when I first saw "Heels" I though you subscribed to the Brandi Rhodes deal where she humbly and graciously supplies a safe space empowerment zone that is both micro-aggression and condescension free for female fans of the male dominated wrestling industry.

Then I remembered seeing a commercial for the show you watched. Good, huh? I may have to check it out once I get through the wrestling I already have DVR'd.
 
Fair warning, while you will see some nice titties of a main character, there is some middle-aged male full-frontal as well.

made a Cameo last episode of Heels. He fit right into the episode (but as a different character - not himself). Hopefully It's a sign of more Cameos to come.


In PPV news, it's pretty cool that half of the announced matches for this weekend are womens matches. Particularly impressive considering it's a "hardcore" PPV.
 
Yet hardly any stipulations on most of the matches
Fair enough, you'd think there'd be more than 1 hardcore match at PPV names "Extreme rules". I appreciate when the matches follow the theme of the PPV.
Then again, maybe they're testing out a less gimmicky version and just focusing on solid matches?
 
Thoughts on the drafts?
I'm happy to see Aliyah, Yim and Xia (li) get called up. I've seen Aliyah in the indies, Yim is a veteran and Xia's non-wrestling photos are HOT. I wouldn't mind seeing the other Xia get called up sometime.

Anyone know why they insist on putting on Crown jewel on a weekday? Just move it by one day and make it a Friday night event.

I think alot of it is due to the fact that Friday is a holy day

Do you know if there is any reason they don't have it on the weekend like a regular PPV?

Will be interesting to see what outfits the ladies will be wearing tonight.
