It would be okay if every Punk match wasn’t boring

 

Oh fuck yeah. Mystery Vortex is tonight. Love following along with those who are there

 

Fingers crossed they go crazy with it. First show since January. It should end with Super Dragon vs Yuka.

 

how in the absolute fuck has Nemeth not at least gotten a big run in Impact or something?

 

also i find it strange people are getting preemptively mad online about Yuta winning the International Title, i am skeptical as to if Tony would have his winningest champ lose on a Dynamite ahead of three huge shows in a month

 

Beyond Wrestling just put on a brilliant wedding.

 

Card so far for tonight's PWG 20th Anniversary Mystery Vortex show

Takeshita vs Rey Horus
Moxley (PWG debut) vs Titus Alexander
Roderick Strong (making his PWG return) vs Michael Oku

 

Its a Mystery Vortex dawg, spoilers

 

Did Roddy wrestle in the neck brace?

 

He came out in it, but took it off when the match started.

 

Match 4 Maki Itoh, Evil Uno, and Aramis vs Masha Slamovich, Peter Avalon, and Latigo

 

I haven't had a "refreshing Socal Uncensored's Twitter every 20 minutes for PWG results" night in a longgg time.

 

I’m surprised Bronn Breakker is just toiling around the NXT midcard. Would’ve thought he’d be main roster toiling the midcard by now

 

Match 5 Rey Fenix vs Taurus

Match 6 and main event Daniel Garcia (c) vs Speedball Mike Bailey 60 minute Iron Man for the PWG title

 

The main event is crazy

 

Speedball finally winning the PWG title is 8 years coming. He first challenged for the PWG title against Roddy at Mystery Vortex III in 2015 If he wins the building is gonna become unglued

 

Garcia beats Speedball 4-3 in sudden death overtime to retain the PWG title booooooooo

 

My problem is Iron Man matches is they always end one of two ways 1) it's tied up at 59:00 and someone squeeks out a win the very last moment. 2) it's tied up past 60:00 and someone gets a win in sudden death.

Iron Man could be used in so much more interesting ways. Like for example lets say you have a veteran vs a young underdog in a Iron Man, and its a fucking blowout with the veteran getting like 10 pins in, but the underdog doesn't give up and keeps on fighting even though they know they're going to lose. At 59:00 it's 10-0 and then the underdog finally manages to get a pin in. They lose 10-1, but get over huge.

 

I wonder if it’s a case of plans changing because losing to Melo again was the logical end to his run.

 

real roller coaster reading those spoilers speedball (insert sobbing emoji but it still shows over spoiler text)

 

Ignore who the tweet is from

 

i promise that this is not a shot at anyone who follows the dirtsheet stuff, it's a huge part of wrestling, but i wish there was one place on the fucking internet i could go where i didn't hear a word about CM Punk other than

- what he does on my TV
- if he does anything actually terrible that transcends wrestling

otherwise if i could press a button and make it go away i would, and that goes for most of this shit. it's professional nerds vague booking to their journalist nerd friends so we get third hand at best nerd vomit

 

Meltzer is such a cornball

 

Rough day for the “punk is a good guy” contingent lol
