AEW Dynamite (May 27th, 2020): What’s FTR Doing In The Impact Zone?!

So it’s the aftermath of Double Or Nothing… the stadium stampede has come and gone… and I’m going to buy the replay since I’ve heard good things about the show. If all goes well, expect a write-up on said show in a couple weeks.

In the meantime, we have the aftermath on Dynamite and it starts with…

Random Thoughts On Double Or Nothing, Hana Kimura, TNA

In case anyone was wondering – god knows why – no, I will not be watching the Double Or Nothing PPV event taking place tonight. Under a different set of circumstances, I probably would jump at the chance… but the prevailing circumstances of the world we live in (as well as – let’s be honest – the rather hefty price tag) means I won’t be watching this show. Maybe somewhere down the line, when things are better, I might order the replay, but for the moment, I can only wish AEW the best in trying to put together the most kick-ass show possible.

Too bad, too… I was actually looking forward to that Stampede Stadium event or whatever it was called.
Also, sad to hear about the passing of Stardom star Hana Kimura and the circumstances surrounding it. It’s… pretty dreadful that we go online to share our love and passion for something, only for some unruly folks to ruin it. Folks, if you’re at a point where things look bleak, it’s okay to seek help. There are options… and Twitter isn’t one of them.
To end this on a somewhat happy note, I’ve been watching some terrible old TNA PPVs for the purposes of posting terrible PPV musings. I clearly missed out on some grade-ASS quality sports bullshit.
Thank you, Shoulders Torelli, for coining a new thing that I’m going to stick with until the end of time.

Shad Gaspard

For those who haven’t heard, former WWE Superstar Shad Gaspard (he of Cryme Time fame with JTG) and his ten-year-old son were caught in a rip current while swimming this past Sunday. He directed lifeguards to save his son first, but was unfortunately caught in a wave. His body was found a couple days later.

I remember Cryme Tyme being a pretty entertaining duo and both guys did good stuff. Those who knew Shad have said that he was a good man… and knowing that he sacrificed his life so that his son could be saved more than solidifies that claim.

Thoughts and prayers to the family.
