Good to have Rosa back but I'm not sure about the new theme music.

Her old music was definitely better and more unique.
I'm of the opinion that good wrestler intro music should instantly tell you who's coming out. Such as Stone Cold's breaking glass or Mankind's car crash.

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

Completely agree. Music is so important to presentation, and it should always get the crowd hyped.

ItsWizardTime,

It’s underwhelming and her old one was great!

I’m glad Garcia didn’t finish the tourney scoreless. He is too good for that.

Why'd it have to be my boy Brodie though

TellumSiege,

I'm so happy he got some points. I'm a big fan of Garcia.

is it really a christmas wrestling episode if santa doesn’t get beat up or turn evil and beat up a good guy?

Travon333,

Lol the 2 signs are a great touch

Travon333,

So are we gonna ignore KKs question

Did we see Max pull the tights?

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

Kinda looked like it.

Travon333,

😂😂 Scissoring is so stupid but the Acclaimed is a vibe

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

I missed the heck out of them. Kinda hope they help Max in the devil storyline...and don't just let that whole ass kicking slide.

Montagge,

They better not!

TellumSiege,

No mention of it so far. But hopefully we get something on Wednesday/Saturday.

i hope they continue the continental classic next year but make it even bigger, world cup style, with more from other leagues/promotions across the whole summer leading to all out :D

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

That would be awesome! If not All Out, I could see the finals being a nice addition for All In too.

ImADifferentBird,
@ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Do the league finals at All In, and then the tournament final at All Out.

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

Yep. I like that too.

cupcakezealot,
@cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

yes! i was thinking at all in but that’s usually in the summer but yeah group or league finals at all in makes sense plus you could feature more uk and european people

cupcakezealot,
@cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

also a womens version pls 🙏

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

Yes! And throw in some joshi's like that tourny they did back in the pandemic era. I'd love to see Veny again.

cupcakezealot,
@cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

yesss

ImADifferentBird,
@ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Yeah, this tournament has been rad. The format is a little confusing (as round robin tournaments often are), but it has delivered that big match feel in every match. Would love to see it go even bigger next year.

cupcakezealot,
@cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

definitely! they could do group stages next year too beyond blue and orange!

ImADifferentBird,
@ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

This match fucks

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

For sure. Great match to open the show.

Travon333,

I liked it. It felt like two friends sparring before Claudio realizing it's a must win for him and turning up the heat

Travon333,

5 minutes left and I feel like they haven't even gotten started yet

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

Any chance we get a draw here?

Travon333,

Feels like we have to be pacing wise

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

Yep. And there it is.

ImADifferentBird,
@ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

God damn, I forgot how good Thunder Rosa was.

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

Great to have her back. The women's division needs her.

Montagge,
Montagge avatar

For sure! Not only can she go with anyone she can help elevate greener talent.

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

Exactly! With Hayter, Britt, and others out they need more top-of-the-card talents.

I know Britt's no Okada in the ring but her promo work still puts her up there for me.

ItsWizardTime,

Thunderosa’s …“pants” can’t be comfortable it looks like a massive wedgie.

Montagge,
Montagge avatar

Can't get swamp ass if there's no room for it

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

lmao

Montagge,

You know what would be fun? HoB promos read by Daddy Magic

TellumSiege,
TellumSiege avatar

"Dju wanna know what makes House of Black's nipples hard?!?!"

cupcakezealot,

Holy shit! Atta boy Garcia!

Travon333,
