Just got hot in here for some reason...

"I won the G1 Climax 35. This 13 years whether it was AEW or NJPW, I put alot of the teen years I've spent in DDT into this main event. And I take pride in showing my Dramatic Dream in that match. I'm thankful to all the fans for the support.

Come November 3rd at Ryogoku Sumo Hall, I'm excited to team with Kaisei Takechi as the G1 Winner. Takechi! Let's show them an amazing team!"

My main blog started as an LDH blog, mainly about The Rampage from Exile Tribe. That's Kaisei's group. My worlds have collided 😅

For everyone whining about politics, Hulk Hogan was a horrible person long before he endorsed the orange man.

He's the reason wrestlers don't have unions today. Jesse Ventura was organizing the boys to start a union. Hulk found out and ran straight to Vince. Now, decades later, wrestlers are still feeling the impact. Next time you see a legendary wrestler having to start a gofundme to cover the treatment for the horrific injuries he got in the business (that were made worse because he couldn't take time off), thank Hulk.

He's also a racist. He's been recorded throwing slurs around. He's on tape hurling racial slurs at his daughter's boyfriend. He said he wouldn't want to be reincarnated black. Those are just the ones I remember off the top of my head.

He tried to pull strings to get his son off the hook for a drunk driving accident that left his passenger critically injured. That passenger was a war vet who got brain damage in the crash and after required 24 hour care. (The same son was also arrested AGAIN for DUI in 2023 and Hulk showed up at the scene while he was being arrested, asking the cops if there was anything he could do about it.)

He has ALWAYS been known as one of the most selfish people in the business. The stories are out there. Look up all the people he wouldn't put over or times he whined to get a storyline changed to benefit himself. His locker-room politics are well-known. I can not type them all here. I would have carpal tunnel before we got to 1985.

His lies are also legendary. Always self-serving. Always painted himself as a God among men. Always stole credit. Always threw everyone around him under the bus. Everyone who was in wrestling in his day has a story.

So no, it isn't about Trump.

I'm honestly just surprised Hulk put the Grim Reaper over.

DDT... A "Woof Woof Paradise Match..."

Just going to point out something that won't be obvious to non-gamers...

Take's wearing the red leather now. Kenny's always borrowed elements of Sephiroth for his character. In FF7 lore, Sephiroth has one rival. One other SOLDIER member who was considered his equal. That was Genesis Rhapsodos. He wears a red leather trenchcoat. His fanclub was also called "Red Leather."

I'm not going to deep-dive into the other story similarities I see, just thought I'd point out that most obvious one.

If you want the full story, they recently remade FF7: Crisis Core on new gen consoles. Most of Genesis's story is there, and it continues in FF7: Dirge of Cerberus

(And yes, Take-chan is also a FF7 fanboy, and streamed the remake on his old gaming channel years ago)

There's a lot to unpack here...

...but I kinda don't want to unpack it. Just give me Take-chan and leave the other 2 in the package.

And then ship that package to Abu Dhabi.

Not sure if I ever talked much about CM Punk on here, but he's officially been fired by AEW.

As a performer, I had nothing against the guy, but he just doesn't play well with others and it creates a toxic workplace for everyone on the roster. I personally thought TK was stupid to give him another chance after we spent a year talking about the fight where someone got bit and it wasn't by the dog who was there.

Y'all, why TF is Tony Khan wearing a straw hat and running around with pirates? 😐

[thesoupson]

Take-chan and Shunma

[thesoupson]

Legends.

Someone asked why I wasn't posting as much.

I got a lot of my stuff from Twitter, and kept up with most of the Japan stuff there, too, but now that Twitter is irrevocably fucked...

I don't even like notifications from that app now. Just turned them off because they look like this now.

The band splitting up...
