easy entry in pro wrestling as a whole video list !
^ a Very good basis into how wrestling Works without condescension using the example of the shield which is how i originally got into wrestling as a kid. very emotionally impactful i think!!!
my all time favorite womens wrestler, her character work is based on golden hollywood and old film history so. you know. gestures at myself.
toni and mariahs two year long feud in aew where they kiss and fuck and murder each other violently and try to wear each others skin. its perfect. wrestling will never get better than this
the two best mens feuds ive ever been witness to watching live. strickpage is blood drinking vampirism, cowboy turning evil and ruining his own life over one hot guy and it haunts him for the rest of his life. cmjf is what happens when wrestling and real life fade into each other, punk bringing real life childhood photos of him and max to the ring to taunt him and their real life idolatry relationship. it fucks. they have probably the most famous dog collar match of all time. exactly what it sounds like.
my personal all timer match. there is currently no supercut of these twos relationship (im working on it.) but their storyline is fucking generational. i have a spreadsheet if anyone is interested in their lore post this match and can answer any and all questions with annotations and links and i mean that.
mainstream singles wrestlers to look into: kenny omega, jon moxley, swerve strickland, chuck taylor, toni storm, willow nightingale, kris statlander, mercedes mone (the mountain goats wrote a song about her), orange cassidy, speedball mike bailey, kevin knight, athena
mainstream tag teams: golden lovers (canon gay couple. probably in real life as well), the young bucks (PELAEPLEASEPLEASE), motor city machine guns, jetspeed, the best friends, divine dominion, babes of wrath, hyan & maya world, any of the blackpool combat club->death riders storyline
indies singles: badger briggs, connor hopkins, darian bengston, david ali, joseline navarro, b3cca, aminah belmont, corinne joy, gabby forza. (i have Way more. narrowed this down a lot already but ask me for more and I Will)
indies tag/stables: G.A.Y (gwen neodonna, the luminary valerie kennedy), mat daddies, tragedy boiz, the curse, pretty empowered, deathmatch royalty, the new guys, those damn coyotes, the hype
Ask me any questions about how things work, different styles of wrestling, feuds, etc PLEASE! I hope this helps a little :-)
Ambrolleigns (Dean Ambrose X Roman Reigns X Seth Rollins)
Mariah May X Mina Shirakawa X Toni Storm
Remaining time: 3 hours 29 minutes
Propaganda:
Ambrolleigns
-Shield remains the most "red string of fate" of all ships, even with Dean absent.
-Along with the time they were all champions within five minutes on one night, there is also the fact that they all gave each other their first world title in WWE which is The Most Soulmate thing of all time. (Seth pinned Roman, Roman pinned Dean, Dean pinned Seth). There's a photo of the night they were all champs in one night of them hugging backstage and it's only available in blurry potato footage because WWE has never released a high def version. Presumably because they fear its power.
MM x MS x TS
-The three of them opted to have their storyline involve kissing and references to them having sex. This is what got me into wrestling.
@phthalomoon I’M SO GLAD YOU ASKED! sorry for the late reply this took a while to type out lol
^^^these are my ocs Eddie aka “Aurora Borealis” (left) and Vino (right) (my account is named after her lol)!!
(some 2022 pre glee era art)^ they used to be side characters (I LOVE ME SOME SIDE CHARACTERS) in me and my friends’ oc story (lots of mafia and drug stuff and exploitation and death and things of that nature) but we started that story back in 2020 and the lore as changed so much that they don’t really fit in the plot anymore
“aurora borealis” was just a drag queen name i came up with based off [inside joke with oomfs] and “eddie” is also based off [inside joke with oomfs] and “vino” translates to wine in spanish, which is very fitting for the story, but it’s actually short for “виноград/vinograd” which translates to grape which is based off [inside joke with oomfs] lmfao.
BUT BASICALLY eddie and vino (previously known as victor), grew up in like this assassin training place in siberia/siberia equivalent place called “маска” (also the name of ukrainian masked singer) ((CAN Y’ALL TELL I MADE THIS DURING MY EASTERN EUROPEAN ERA)) they technically don’t have real names, маска calls them by these ID numbers, eddie’s being 8090 and vino’s being 7718 (those are inside jokes lol) the company like teaches a bunch of orphans how to kill and when they turn 18 they are sent off around the world as freelance assassins with the company taking a cut of their pay. THE CATCH IS that they have to have a boring lowkey job in order to hide the fact that they’re assassins. once they are sent off into the world, they return back to the company every 10 years and essentially debrief and reconnect with old friends.
eddie and vino are yaoi friends to lovers while training awwwwwwww,,, they always watch the northern lights together and drink the wine that they occasionally sneak into the facility PUT A PIN IN THIS… they enjoy each other’s company a LOT, sometimes even acting too drunk at the events so they leave early just to hangout privately with one another..
but when the time comes, THEY MUST PART… no one knows the location they’re staying at until the very moment (they are like. squid games drugged and dropped off LMAO), but vino promises eddie that she’ll find find him one day, that 10 years apart is too long
eddie ends up in fuckin WISCONSIN and vino ends up in like. montana or something idek. eddie works at a laundromat and vino works as a bartender
after like NOT EVEN A YEAR of living in the real world,, the two of them, SEPARATELY, come up with the idea to CROSSDRESS in order to hide their identity even more; eddie has some really dramatic, crazy drag (i believe my inspo was crystal methyd and hoso terra toma) while vino simply starts presenting more feminine, growing her hair out and stuff
eddie comes up with the drag name “aurora borealis”!! in reference to when they used to watch the northern lights together AWW and vino starts going by “vino” instead of “victor” in reference to the wine they used to drinK…
vino has some like Emo moments where she just stares up at the sky, wishing she could see the northern lights from where she is,,,,,,, eddie/aurora lowkey just be getting wine drunk thinking about his eX..
after a couple of years, eddie pretty much stops going by eddie and fully just goes by “aurora”, he starts dressing up in drag WHILE working at the laundromat.,, he doesn’t care if that makes him seem suspicious, he really likes the thrill of almost being caught and stuff
vino completely drops the name “victor”,, and she just starts living life as a woman. SHE EVEN ends up using some of her assassin money to get some shady illegal estrogen eventually LOL she keeps telling herself “i’m not trans i’m just doing all of this to protect my identity” BUT THAT SHIT IS NOT TRUE…..
eddie/aurora starts going a lil Crazy and ends up just straight up PERFORMING in drag, taking small gigs at local bars; vino is still too shy to really express herself and her gender identity
this part is kinda vague but somehow, about 5-7 years of living in the real world, vino ends up moving to wisconsin,, whether it’s because the higher ups directed her to move or that there’s better money there or that maybe someone almost found her out I DON’T KNOW AND I CAN’T REMEMBER SO… YEA
vino ends up WORKING at the bar that eddie/aurora performs at, but she never actually encounters him, they keep just MISSING each other
while working, vino HEARS SOMEONE TALKING ABOUT THIS ONE QUEEN.. “AURORA BOREALIS”…….. they hear that Oh this drag queen always leaves suddenly, lowkey be getting drunk all of the time, doesn’t like getting out of drag,,,,, is very flamboyant but never truly opens up to anyone. she hears that this drag queen works at a laundromat like an hour awaY..
so vino Leaves and getting on her motorcycle (oh yeah they’re also bikers i never mentioned thaT), and goes to the laundromat. she barges in and AURORA IS THERE AND SHE’S LIKE “hey we’re closed-“ and vino just goes “eddie????” AND THEN AURORA PAUSES AND REALIZES WHO IT ISSBJSIISJSJSISJS
AND THEN THEY REUNITE AND CATCH UP AND ITS BEAUTIFULLLLLLLL
they slowly start being in a romantic/sexual relationship againnnn yay,,, they have their first date together and vino’s late because she was out killing someone and she’s like covered in blood and then she goes to eddie’s place and ends up wearing some of his clothes TEE HEE
vino ends up coming out as trans to eddie, and she’s kinda worried it’ll ruin their relationship, but eddie 1000% supports her!! he’s like “why would you even THINK i would view you negatively- you are literally the most beautiful woman i have ever seen in my life—“ and vino’s like “well you are the most beautiful man AND woman i’ve ever seen..”
so yeah! THEY FOUND EACH OTHER AGAIN IN THE END WAAAAA,, vino even ends up performing a little at drag gigs, gaining confidence from eddie/aurora
i had some fuckin plot line about vino being a dominatrix but i don’t think that went anywherE.. LMAO
after a while, the two of them slowly stop taking job offers. they lowkey just like hanging out with each other and living their stupid little wisconsin life… by the ninth year, their feelings towards their assassin jobs end up growing further into just complete hatred, ESPECIALLY for vino. why would she even WANT to kill in the first place? when life is so beautiful as it is?????
so. THE TIME COMES. 10 YEARS. IT’S TIME TO GO BACK TO FUCKIN SIBERIA..
all of the маска assassins are branded with their ID on the backs of their necks on their hairline and there’s like this sweet scene where eddie’s giving vino an undercut so she doesn’t have to shave all her hair off.. WAAA
eddie tries to comfort his girlfriend like “hey,, we’ll be okay. we just need to get through this week and then we can go back to just being us.”
vino gets really ominous and mysterious and starts saying shit like “you are the best thing that’s ever happened to me” and shit like thAT……
the fuckin squid games van comes to pick em up or whatever,, when they get back to the маска headquarters, they get dressed in their uniform and stuff and head on downnnn to the function, their old peers kinda look at vino strange since she’s a woman now and stuff;; eddie tries to comfort her but vino is just Locked tf in, not responding or talking to eddie :(
THE ASSASSIN CEREMONY COMES AND the higher ups congratulate vino for she’s killed the most people aka made them the most money. they’re like “you lowkey Fell Off towards the end but whatever. good job overall. would you like to say a few words?”
so vino gets up to tbe podium and then she simply says “I QUIT”……..
NO ONE HAS EVER QUIT THE COMPANY BEFORE. THIS IS UNHEARD OF…
the higher ups are fuckin FLABBERGASTED and as they begin yelling and protesting against her, and then EDDIE STANDS UP SUDDENLY AND HE’S LIKE “I QUIT TOO.” vino’s in shock that eddie would do such a thinG, the higher ups are like “okay does anyone want to fucking quit too.” and everyone’s silent…
so eddie and vino are beaten up, stripped, and they basically cut off the IDs that they have on their hairlines YEOWCH and they put them in the squid games van and TAKE THEM AWAY…..
when the two of them come to, they are just left in the middle of nowhere, completely naked and bruised and bleeding. they don’t know where they are, it’s cold and dark and they are on the BRINK OF DEATH
vino’s crying and blaming herself for everything that happened, telling eddie that he shouldn’t have left with her, but he basically tells her “i’d kill myself if i had to live my life apart from you.”
so he helps her up and they fuckin SURVIVE SOMEHOW. they eventually make it back home to fuckin wisconsin and they LIVE THEIR LIVESSSSSSSSSSS FOR ONLY YOU CAN CHOOSE WHO YOU WANT TO BE. OR SOMETHING..
so. basically the whole point of the story is Be Yourself!!! yayyy
tldr. listen to i/me/myself by will wood THE FIRST PART IS VINO AND THE SECOND PART IS AURORA AND THEN IT CUTS BACK TO VINO DURING THE BRIDGE AND THEN THEY REUNITE TRUSTTTT FUCKKK I STILL THINK ABOUT THE ANIMATIC IN MY HEAD ALL THE TIME……. one of these days i’ll actually make it
tldr tldr. listen to группа крови by kino.
GOSH I MISS THEM… AND I USED TO PUT THEM IN AUS ALL THE TIMEEEEE…. very b!g core lol. the most memorable ones were my streamer au and my pirate au! it would take a whole other post to explain those ones but fuckkkkk that shit was so good that was like b!g wrestling au pre b!g goshhhh TAKE ME BACK……
The year is 2015, you wake up at 2pm and rush to your computer. Your friends are on skype! You message your skype group and say “dgdjfgdfg GOOD MRONGING I OVERSLEP TGDFG”, all your friends reply with a keysmash. They update you on what happened while you napped, two of your mutuals got called out for kinstealing. Tsh- not like you’re surprised. Even if they tagged as “not kin or id”, you knew they were reblogging too much chrom art for them not to be kin. Your friends quickly send you the callout post link and you scroll through it hastily. Looks like they also stole their mutuals theme layout. You close the callout and open tumblr.com, you recently changed your url from bpdayato to ayato2 (score!) and need to reblog the notice post again for your mutuals who may not have seen. You have one new ask! You open your inbox to read it. It says- “were u tumblr user schizogod.” …you delete the ask. You know if you say yes they will bring up old callouts, but that’s not important- your friends just sent you a rabbit invite and you’re going to watch darkweb videos!
K: You need to call me before you dress yourself.
M: Whatever. Whatever.
K: You look like a technicolor zebra-
M: You’re a hater. That’s what you are.
K: and I look like I’m a part of it.
M: You’re trying to copy me.
K: It looks like I planned it.
M: You know what, if your hair was longer, you’d have curls.
