    JR is getting horny with his old age. Turning into king. lol

    First he's promoting links to Sunny's onlyfans on twitter....

    Now he's talking about how Christie Jaynes (or whatever her name was) "goes down good too"

    Yes and no.

    He was announced for the NXT cruiserweight tournament like two days before he was cut. He cut a good promo online about how much he loves the business...and instead of just replacing him, they kept him on as a weekly paid competitor. No contract. Paid by appearance for this tournament (in real life and storyline)

    So his storyline in the tournament is that he's fighting to save his career. How they'll have to sign him again if he wins.

    Its looking like he won't. The whole tournament was set up to make Phantasma look good.... butbyiu never know. They might re-sign the guy hoping to get that Bryan/Kofi momentum out of it

    Some people are critical of this story, as it is tasteless to do, when so many people lost their jobs and don't have this kind of opportunity

    Good to see formally known as The Revival arrive, if they can get Gallows and Anderson as well then there really will be no arguing that AEW is the place to go for tag wrestling.

    Can do without the Tyson shit though. There isn't anything that Jericho can't make entertaining, but that's a bit too far into WWE territory for my liking.

    Forgot to put over how good the Baker promo was yesterday, it's bonkers how she has gone from almost unwatchable in the first few months of Dynamite to being one of the best characters on the show. I hope they get her to send in promos like some of the others do, it's too good to be off TV until All Out.

    Another Dark Side of the Ring story can be Mae Young giving Birth to a hand.

    In all seriousness, you could do a Mark Henry episode about racism in the industry (Silverback) and how they purposefully tried to make him quit, to get outbof paying his huge long-term contract, with crap like the Mae Young hand, long jobber runs, and trips to OVW because of weight (like show)

    I'd be curious to delve into more of what happened between Earthquake and Koji Kitao, that time they shot on each other. For that matter, maybe have a whole DSotR episode covering occasions when wrestlers actually end up fighting for real, like Yokozuna or Perry Saturn did against jobbers, and maybe include the Public Enemy vs APA beatdown.
    Actually, they could do an episode about just Saturn. What a strange journey, from wrestler to hero to his disappearance and reappearance.

    Saturn would make a great story.

    I just thought of another one that would be gold: the story of Daniel Puder's foray into the wrestling world, with a focus on the incident with Kurt Angle and the punishment he received in the Royal Rumble.

    The steroids trial and the abuse of the ring boys are the biggest stories for DSOTR to cover, but will there be much left that isn't on the cutting room floor after the lawyers get their hands on the edits ?

    I can see them doing the Abdullah Hep C story, Bill DeMott's bullying in developmental and Heyman's running of ECW. I'd like to see episodes on the Muhammad Hassan storyline, WCW's involvement in Collision in Korea and the Act Yasukawa v Yoshika shoot.
