I love me some mist spots and pretty much any asian wrestler who does it. I always keep trying to spot when they load the capsule and such before the move.
Gangrel is still the shit.

4. Vague/Editorialized Title.
Please keep the titles of any articles you post clear, understandable, and indicative of what the article states within. It's ok to alter the title if the original is clickbait and confusing, or contains a spoiler like a debut that just occurred that day, but do not add your own thoughts to it.
5. Sexualized Content/'Plot'.

When Asuka wiped it in the eyes of Bianca for the win it was beautiful
Such a great use of it!
I'm a sucker for dopey monster gimmicks of all sorts. Love all those weird Memphis monsters, love WWE gimmicks like The Boogeyman, love all of it.
How do you feel about P.C.O.?
Fucking love him.
Hell yeah lol. I don't get it, but if that's what he wants to do I'm not gonna stop him. I love Matt Cardona so I still had a good time with their recent feud
PCO taking the bumps he does at 56 and keep moving is mind boggling. Love my French Canadian Frankenstein!
Somehow I didn't realize he was this old. Did he have any other noteworthy gimmicks?
He was one half of the Quebeccers back in the WWF along with Jacques Rougeau, 3x tag champs, and later was repackaged as Jean-Pierre LaFitte, this pirate kinda character. Later would rehash the Quebeccers with Rougeau in WCW, and a dozen other places and indies all over. By 2018 he came up with PCO (which stands for both Pefect Creation One and Pierre Carl Ouellet) in ROH and it took the fuck off. Has been doing it since.
Ah, I am aware of him then! Didn't really watch, but I know at least one of those characters. Thanks!
At a local show I went to, they had a dragged to hell match.
It was basicay a bunch of extras in masks hiding under the ring. If you fall out of the ring they try to grab you and pull you under. You have to get back in the ring quickly.
The person that gets dragged under the ring loses.
It was fun and they added lots of fog. I wish I could find a video of it.
Edit: I found a fan video but itβs from the worst angle and you donβt see the demons under the ring. But you get the gist of it. I donβt think the company put out the video for it yet.
How has WWE never done this with the Undertaker???
Found a fan video from bad angle. Loud screaming warning
Oh my god. I CANNOT stop laughing at this.
When the video first starts, you get the impression that it will be 50-100 people in the crowd. Then they pan over during the entrance, and there's at least 1000 people, but 90% probably can't see shit.
And it's just a dude with a JC Penny collection towel on his head. Then he takes it off, and it's just a comically bad halloween mask.
Then the other guy comes out, and his face paint actually looks really good. But he's joined by the ensamble cast of extras, straight from your local haunted corn maze attraction.
The whole thing is sponsered by Spirit Halloween. I mean, I assume anyways.
Then a fog machine starts, all of this with the lights ON mind you! And the screaming woman is WAAAAAAAAY more enthusiastic about a guy just standing in the ring doing nothing, than I ever have been for anything in my life.
I was going to make the joke that these people must be COMPLETELY wasted. Then I saw the banner. Bash at the Brew. Sooooo, they actually ARE super wasted.
And then I saw the video title. I was expecting this happened late last October. To go along with the Halloween theme.
Nope. This was August of this year. I can't even make it to the start of the match. I'm just laughing so hard at EVERYTHING. Its all just so great unintentional comedy. I keep expecting the camera to pan over, and Jim Halpert to just look at the camera...
Hey, the promotion finally released the video today. The dragged to hell match, but from the company itself instead of the shitty angle from before
That sounds amazing!
Found a fan video from a bad angle. Would put the volume down a bit since they just scream into the mic most of the match.

Oh hell yeah!!!!
Sounds like a great alternative to the standard lumberjack match!
When it's obviously just a fun gimmick I love the stupid shit. Rey Mysterio and Seth Rollins was dumb as fuck, but I had a good time. A lot of the stuff from the pandemic era if you weren't trying to take it seriously. Pretty much anything Bray Wyatt. The Undertaker and AJ boneyard match was really good
I'm a sucker for NXT's Halloween Havoc. I love spin the wheel things. The Devil's Playground shit was surprisingly good. Wendy Choo and Tiffany Stratton was a banger. That might not have been Halloween, but the lights were out, so we will call it spooky
Hardy Compund matches can be fun, and you know Jeff loves the super natural. Danhausen is always hilarious. Always.
I like to smark out, but I can also just have some goofy fucking fun. Doesn't hurt anybody, and there will be plenty more regular wrestling when it is done
I love all the spooky shit, whether itβs dramatic or comedic. I spent a lot of time during lockdowns watching Rosemary (and Bunny) vlogs and their storyline in TNA. And I was a huge fan of the soap opera rivalry and tag team of Kane and Undertaker.
I'm a sucker for any spooky shit. As a kid I didn't watch wrestling but Undertaker was still my favorite, and the Wyatt Family was partly responsible for finally getting me to watch.
WHERE TO, STEPHANIE??!!!
