Ron Garvin & Barry Windham vs The Midnight Express - 1987

[blueonwrestling]

Now I can’t be 100% here about this scoop, but the Midnight Express maybe inducted into the hall of fame this year.

They’ve contacted an absolute ton of people for the hall of fame, and even tho everything feels very last second, they still might be doing them.

Stacey Keibler is also absolutely going in.

Top Five Teams that changed members-Which version was better?

Rob Faint In the world of pro wrestling, it’s not uncommon for a tag team with the same name to have interchangeable members.  Injuries, expiring contracts, or relationship problems can cause teams to break up and recruit new members.  When a team changes members the question becomes Which version was better?

i think that in small tightknit communities, all residents should receive a coupon book on their bday that allows them to commit [x] number of nonviolent crimes per year

i really hope mcr5 does not come out before this is scheduled or else it would be really awkward

why have I started detailing their goofy narumitsu-y faces when the rest of the piece isn't even linearted yet? Truly baffling. But well, I suppose the answer may be along the lines of: because I utterly adore them too incredibly flabbergastingly much,,,

Jim Cornette, Big Bubba and The Midnight Express Promo - 1987

[fruitsofhell]

I used to be one of those guys when I first joined the Kirby fandom, but everytime I hear a discussion of the series writing that starts with "So the Lore is InSaNe-" and not like, "Kirby has a fun writing style that takes advantage of its cute exterior to tell cool stories that reward player's curiosity and leave lots of room for imagination-" I cringe so goddamn hard.

I kinda just hate that people approach things that encourage investment when they don't expect it as inherently absurd. Like it is fun to joke about how absurd Kirby lore can be, but it really often comes with an air of disrespect or exhaustion rather than like, appreciation that these games are made by people who want to tell interesting stories when they could easily make as much money just making polished enough fluffy kiddy platformers. And when it's not met with exhaustion, it's met with - like I said before - that tone that it's stupid for a series like this TO have devs who care about writing stuff for it. Which is a whole other thing about people not respecting things made to appeal to kiddie aesthetic or tone.

Maybe the state of low-stakes YouTube video essays just blows cause people play up ignorance and disbelief for engagement, but like I STG I hear people use this tone for like actual narrative based games sometimes. Some people don't like... appreciate when a game is made by people who care a shitton in ways that aren't direct gameplay feedback. And they especially don't appreciate it when it comes from something with any sense of tonal dissonance intentional or not.

Anyways, I love games made by insane people. I love games made by teams who feel like they wanna make something work or say something so bad. I love that energy, especially when invested into something that could easily rest on its laurels or which obviously won't be taken seriously. I love this in a lot of classic campy 2000s games, I love this in insanely niche yet passionate fanworks, and I love it in the Kirby series and its writing. Can we please stop talking about it like it's an annoyance or complete joke?
