"Pro-wrestling is a physical art!"

Wrestling is very cringe and therefore the best thing ever. Follows from eaventide.

About Me v2.0!

Hey there! I'm Mel (21+, she/her, GMT +8). Still a lover of the three Ws of (w)reading, writing, and wrestling, along with music and video games and all that, but this blog is going to be almost exclusively focused on prowres. Started watching in earnest in the late 2000s (WWE), fell in love with it thanks to early 2010s AmeriWres indys, only started participating in fandom two years ago. Nowadays I'll watch just about anything and have a lot of faves, but for quick reference here're the active promotions, arranged alphabetically, I check out at least semi-regularly, as well as my favorite roster wrestlers therein (not in order):

AEW: Roderick Strong, Speedball Mike Bailey, Jamie Hayter, Willow Nightingale. I miss you, Chuck Taylor.

CMLL: Templario, Zandokan Jr.

Dragon Gate: U-T, Kzy. Re: classic DG, bow down to the greatness that is Magnum TOKYO. Super Shisa is a really cool wrestler, too.

NJPW: Zack Sabre Jr., Yuya Uemura, Yota Tsuji, Master Wato, Hirooki Goto, YOSHI-HASHI. Of historical members of Nooj, Osamu Nishimura is literally the one guy I know for sure is on my Mt. Rushmore of graps.

Marvelous: Maria, Riko Kawahata, Senka Akatsuki, Sora Ayame.

Sendai Girls: Chihiro Hashimoto, Manami, Mika Iwata.

TJPW: Miu Watanabe, Uta Takami, Shino Suzuki, Arisu Endo, Kira Summer, Shoko Nakajiima. I like literally all of them though bar like 3 names. I miss Yuka Sakazaki in Teej. Also, Sayuri Namba is the GOAT ring announcer.

Specific scene-wise, I also have a fondness for 80s-90s joshi (shoutout Mayumi Ozaki), the modern joshi ecosystem (hi VENY and Chi Chi!), and late 2000s to mid 2010s AmeriWres indy wrestling and history (some things don't change, LOL): PWG, RoH, CHIKARA, all that.

DMs and asks are open. Feel free to say hi/discuss stuff/send recs and GIF requests, even! I like chatting :)

(Oh, and I write fic too! Check out #mel's writing tag to know more.)

Three scenes, two men, one night out. Set at some point in 2024.

So…this is probably the last fic, or Roddam fic at least, I’m writing for a good while. I am at peace with this decision, but it’s still emotional…though, I mean. When you write super non-kayfabe compliant shoot name identity porn, where else can you really go? LOL

[pronoungraps]

they're both so playfully touchy and flirty. kevin calls them 'baby' no less than 4 times in this 45 second backstager. they can't keep their eyes off each other. these things that would maybe be a wedge between them are instead just things they share. everyone telling me they're breaking up soon when this is the text you are all so pessimistic #jetspeedisfine they love eachother so much i think if one of them turns, the other will just be like "guess we're doing evil now" and follow

Character duo where one *remembers I don’t like fitting characters into trope boxes* is a completely fleshed out and realised person *remembers treating characters as real people and not story devices written with intent is bad* who is written by the author and *remembers death of the author* uh. And *fumbles and drops my pile of queue cards* ah fuck wait no *the menacing horse* what was that.
