PREMIERING on LNG Productions tomorrow:
“A Conversation With @The_MJF”
With #AEWDynasty fast approaching, the @AEW World Champion joins me for a chat about his favourite wrestlers, the most underrated pros, Beyond the Mat and so much more!
Matt Cardona isn’t signed to WWE, and for now the appearance on SmackDown is a one off.
WWE sources confirmed that there is a merchandise deal, which is why Ryder merchandise hit the website.

On Saturday, Samoa Joe served as The Navajo Warrior’s final opponent, returning to the indies after a decade away.
Fittingly, he entered in familiar fashion….
“It’s an entire era embodied, a Golden Generation who changed Wrestling and after all these years, somehow remain as relevant as ever."

Just saw an OTC shirt in the wild.
Naturally, I drove my (untaped, sadly) thumb into the brother’s throat, which admittedly seemed drastic without context.
Bryan Danielson named who he views as his wrestling soulmates:
• Hangman Adam Page
• Jon Moxley
• Nigel McGuinness
• Claudio Castagnoli
• Randy Orton
• AJ Styles
(Interview w/ Nick Stav)
Cena’s urgency at capitalising on Rollins’ interference last night set the stage beautifully.
A desperate man that knows he’s running out of time and will do absolutely anything to secure that elusive #17.
I am rewatching The FTR vs. The Young Bucks and would like to reiterate that these fellas are insane
Legacy-defining shift from two teams that haven’t needed to sweat that shit for years
For all the bullying & physicality, Athena takes absolute pride in getting her comeuppance in the most colourful fashion imaginable.
It’s a special trait that allows pure babyfaces to really flourish against her, as she has no intention of blurring the lines. She’s a heel.
Gotta be honest brothers, if I was banged up & hurting I’d absolutely opt for the “10-man lights out cage match” over a feature singles with no bells & whistles lol.
In theory, it’ll allow ample opportunity to lay around, bleed, play the hits and swing a trash can on occasion.
In a time where so many top guys seemingly exist in their own universe, the value of Samoa Joe increases by the day.
He was in Zero Hour tags on the last two PPVs, yet needs just one angle and promo to be an enticing World Title challenger.
46 years young, remarkable.
Look at Bradshaw here.
Goes from assuming $1500 is a bit to realising it’s not, then doing the maths on that and momentarily, getting quite mad about a 2008 NJPW payout.
Art.
It is very unfortunate that people are reading this as an AEW hint or promotional push when obviously, it is instead a simple reminder of how fucking funny this shirt and era were.
NWA’s relationship with AEDub seemingly extends to Rosa and the Women’s Title only.
If I was Big Bill however, I’d be desperate to make Dustin Rhodes the NWA Champion.
That angle would fucking rule, tremendous tale that AEW are unable to tell.
Things can feel so formulaic and rigid at times, very refreshing to see something different and distinct.
They wrestled the perfect match for this slot too, hectic in the most fitting fashion.
WWE will make its debut at Paris La Défense Arena on August 31 for Clash in Paris, followed by Raw the next night. The venue, which has a 40,000-seat capacity for concerts and 32,000 for rugby, is the largest multimodal arena in Europe. It also features one of the world’s largest indoor screens, taking up one entire side, with the other three sides dedicated to reserved seating.
Am all for TKO burials but can’t wrap my head around it resulting in “it used to be better” posts about of all things, WWE’s prior corporate strategy and treatment of talent lol
That was magnificent, an extraordinary spectacle.
My favourite thing on the show by a distance tbh, an all-time great Jon Moxley performance in particular.
Daniel Garcia’s performance last night was the epitome of wrestling to your role.
Never once traded bombs with Brody, didn’t undercut his menace a single time. Bailed, set traps to mixed results and scattered some shtick throughout.
24 years old, wrestling like a grizzled vet.
It remains very funny to me that Drew is THE Punk rival in WWE.
Wouldn’t have made my top ten predictions going in, but he’s done a helluva job with this entire deal.
Obviously Joe is a legend in general but there’s something to his stature in AEW rn
Kinda feels like Taker’s presentation in ‘02 WWF but with much less patriotism
Know the match has become a heated debate on here but man, it’s so fucking cool that these two fellas wrestled each other at Wembley Stadium lol
An all-time live experience for me personally, just wonderful
