Love that too. It feels weird to say this, but I like it when the crowd is genuinely funny, when they're engrossed in the action and there's a sense of play to their chants.

"Like" if you similarly suffer from millennial age dysmorphia.
When my book is published, I want to go to a wrestling event and hand out free copies.

NEW Facebook Post on why I don't enjoy criticizing WWE:
www.facebook.com/workofwrestl...
Contrary to the norm of our community I honestly don't enjoy criticizing WWE. Like the act of dismantling their less than good content doesn't bring me joy. WWE being good and telling interesting stories brings me joy. They're just not telling good stories right now.
We've got to get you on the pod, Rob! Would be great to catch up and get your take on the lay of the land.
Before each of his matches I honestly don't think much of Speedball Mike Bailey (his whole gimmick just doesn't resonate with me) but then he inevitably does something amazing in the match and I'm like, "Wow! I get it."
#AEWDynamite
Thanks, Rob. That reassures me ๐
I feel like I'm the only wrestling fan alive who isn't a fan of FTR.
#AEWDynamite
First saw Thunder Rosa in NWA Powerrr several years ago. I loved her from the first moment I saw her work. Glad to see she's had success.

Jon Moxley has put together an impressive body of work over the years. Watching him work on #AEWDynamite every week feels like a privilege.
Orange & Darby vs The Dogs was just delightful. The way it began, with such chaos and fighting outside the ring pre-bell made what could've been a bathroom break feel distinct and meaningful. I love how #AEWDynamite makes every moment feel important.
Orange's pitiful little pyro is one of many small details that make him my favorite character in #ProWrestling today.
#AEWDynamite
Solid match between Kevin Knight and MJF.
Nice way to start off #AEWDynamite.

Psyched for #AEWDynamite!
This one is an oldie but a goodie. Check out my remastered and re-released episode from The #WorkOfWrestling archive. This is the origin of the phrase "Moment Of Pop". I also examine #TripleH being interviewed by Steve Austin and I define The Reality Era.

Goodnight, one and all. May the Moment of Pop be with you. ๐ด
Looking for more #followers, preferably good humans who are kind, funny, and talented. I dig #ProWrestling and will post mostly about that (hey #WrestleSky!) and other things that make me happy to be on this planet.
If you like the sound of that give me a follow and I'll follow back.
It was like a weird dream lol
There's something off about Punk v Roman in their current incarnations. I can't quite pinpoint what it is yet. But that promo exchange felt labored and the "I'm gonna bury you next to your father" line felt very scripted.
I don't know what their fight could be about.
#WWERaw
If this doesn't end with Finn beating the shit out of Dom then I don't understand wrestling in the slightest. #WWERaw
Excellent match out of nowhere by Dragon Lee and Gunther. I was engaged from start to finish. Well done.

Hello #WrestleSky friends watching #WWERaw. My name is Tim and I host The #WorkOfWrestling #podcast where I analyze wrestling as an art form. New, free eps every Monday. Check it out!

Good overall start to #WWERaw. Simple things like that quick scene in the parking lot and Dragon attacking Gunther before the match make the show feel alive and like anything can happen. I hope they weave that energy throughout the show.
Should I watch #WWERaw tonight or the Real Housewives of Potomac?
I'd like to check in on what #WWE is doing, but I also want to be rewarded for my emotional investment.
Decisions, decisions.
