Yeah, there's times when Domon flies off the handle over the dumbest shit, but where else are you going to see Mexico represented by a giant robot with a sombrero and a cactus shoulder pad?

Not sure if anyone else ever watched G Gundam, but I'm rewatching it for the first time since it was on Toonami a good 20+ years ago. I just got to an episode where two Gundams have an electrified exploding barbed wire cagematch. They could have done more with the cage and spent less time in flashbacks, 2½ stars. The show usually doesn't have any wrestling overtones so it was a bit out of left field.

I can't remember if this was stated as fact or speculation, but I heard Raw won't be locked to three hours on Netflix since they don't have to worry about the show that's on after.

Also, Netflix has a plan that has commercials now so Raw will probably just have ads for WWE merch or whatever they do for PLEs on Peacock.

Same thing applies to the whole entertainment industry. I was hoping the one up side in Disney and WD gobbling up other studios was going to be throwing everything they own on their respective streaming service. Instead they pull stuff to save a couple bucks on residuals and up their prices to butter up shareholders and make their CEOs feel like they have big peepees. I can't wait until my kids are old enough to be trusted to pirate stuff without nuking the computer.

Damn, I love me some lucha. I know it hasn't always gone the best, but I'd be psyched it if one of the promotions would do English commentary.

Usually when a sport needs music the athlete or team plan a routine around a song. Some might choose a song that's well known in their country but not universally known. If it's a folk song it might come off as royalty free.

With the breakdancing they had live DJs cutting songs together and the dancers had to adlib their routines. According to this article the Olympics licensed around 400 songs for the DJs to use. Since each battle used multiple songs you're going to hear more tracks that you know and forget about the ones you don't.

Does that mean he'll be the first person to be officially #blessed?

Any time someone tells you they have an easy trick for some life changing ability ask yourself why everyone doesn't know about it already. Probably because it doesn't do squat.
