I need at least 3 more hours of sleep before I try and navigate @WillOspreay trying to make logic out of who draws what in New Japan during his wedding weekend. Congrats btw, but it’s noise compared to the important stuff that happened in your real life.

In winning the junior heavyweight title today, YOH hit the grand slam of junior accomplishments: jr title, Best of Super Juniors, jr tag titles, and a junior tag tournament. The only other names I came up with that did this are Liger, Kanemoto, Samurai, KUSHIDA, and El Desperado
Like the true exhausted, jaded, grumpy dude I am, a literal tear ran down my face when this scene played out because for the first time in over a decade I watched a movie about a franchise I love and could say “They Didn’t Fuck it up.”
Thor: Ragnarok has a deleted scene where Hela confronts Odin in a New York alley and kills him in front of Thor and Loki
Test audiences felt too sorry for Odin. Taika Waititi reshot the scene in Norway to make it lighter
The original version is brutal
Marvel cut it

It’s the easiest thing in the world to review things on two metrics: “Was it good” and “Did I like it.” One is objective and one is subjective and you cover all the bases.
Nobody ever said they were objective. But I don't base it on what I like. The one thing that separates people who understand wrestling from those who don't is the recognition that what they personally like is sometimes the right thing and sometimes is not.
