Too much tan?

It looks like it's slowly being removed as the Star of David that was closer to his elbow isn't there anymore.

Jews are not supposed to mark their bodies per the Torah. Maybe he is removing them as per scripture tattoos are outlawed.

I wondered about that when MJF told a particular story about his tattoo on an old shoot he did with Josh Briggs and Anthony Greene.

I wasn't really a fan of this quote:

“We’re literally the ‘E’ in AEW,” says Matt Jackson. “The Elite are the main characters of this company. No matter how different AEW is now from its original inception, we are the DNA. And if you lose the foundation of your home, it eventually collapses.


I get alot of fans agree and feel that way and I know the answer is them sticking around backstage as producers when they all retire but the quote sets things up long term in a bad way where when they’re done fans will prob turn on the product and consider it less than and “not the same”. The company will have to exist one day with them gone is all.

Matt has always come off as a bit of a prick and that statement really furthers that. I'm personally glad they all signed new deals, especially in light of attention being shown on Cody leaving last year (which really makes me wonder if this is more than a coincidence in the timing of the announcement) with his doc released this week. I like the Bucks alright enough but Kenny and Hangman I am more excited about staying on really.

I am glad they all re-signed as well! I just think it is one thing for the fans to feel this way but another thing for them to take that mentality and publically roll with it. There have been so many weeks when they have not been on or featured. The business that is AEW will roll on with or without them. And it will have to one day without them. So to more or less say that AEW needs them to stay AEW is just silly and egotistical.

I like Omega and Hangman fine in the ring, but I'm just tired of the Bucks. It's been the same old shit with them for years now.

Last night's Dynamite made me realize how much I miss the old set. I'm just not a fan of a wall of led screens as a set on a wrestling show. It's especially rough on cable that is over a decade behind on bandwidth and resolution so entrances just look pixelated and takes me out of the experience. It was nice seeing the old entrances again.

I’ve seen no reports so I wonder if its just a Visa thing again?

I feel like Hangman Page is the greatest loose end in AEW right now.

I am beyond sick and tired of this crap. It is over and Meltzer keeps fanning the flame. I call so much bullshit. Punk doesn't have that much power and all of the elite butt buddies are crying to Meltzer and he eats it up.

I don’t know, I was referring to all the drama that blew up after Punk sent him home from Collision.

I have to wonder who within AEW has introduced the loose steel bars into backstage brawls. The loose steel bars are very much a staple in all backstage WWE altercations. If there are loose steel bars backstage....somebody is colliding into them!

Cash Wheeler was arrested today for flashing a gun at a guy during a road rage incident in Florida.
