Happy cake day, @GeekFTW@lemmy.zip

i don't know whether or not to make this it's whole thread or not but it's got be thinking; with all the talk about rights deals expiring for nxt, smackdown, and raw on various streaming services can we talk about how bad it is that one company owns close to the entirety of pro wrestling history, at least in america.

not even about the current shows but the whole wealth of history from nwa and the territories now at the whim of media companies and wwe who will pull it for cost reasons but also issue takedown notices for those who put clips up on youtube. it's sad how much we have lost from this when digitisation should have been great for wrestling nostalgia.

i was bored so i asked copilot to make a wrestling angle. i don't hate them.

Absolutely! Here’s a fun and engaging wrestling angle featuring Andy Kaufman and Lulu Pencil in AEW 2024:

Title: “The Comedy Clash”

Setting: AEW Dynamite, November 2024

Segment 1: Kaufman’s Return The show kicks off with a surprise appearance by Andy Kaufman. He enters the ring, boasting about his legendary status and how he revolutionized wrestling with his comedic antics. Kaufman claims that no one in AEW can match his wit and charisma.

Segment 2: Lulu Pencil’s Challenge As Kaufman continues to brag, Lulu Pencil’s music hits. She walks out to the ring with her signature pencil and notepad, looking determined. Lulu grabs a mic and tells Kaufman that while he may be a legend, he hasn’t faced anyone like her. She challenges Kaufman to a match, promising to show him the true spirit of wrestling.

Segment 3: The Setup Tony Khan appears on the screen and announces that Kaufman and Lulu Pencil will face off in a special “Comedy Wrestling Match” at the next AEW pay-per-view, Full Gear. The match will have unique rules, allowing both competitors to use their comedic skills to outwit each other.

Main Event: Full Gear - Comedy Wrestling Match The match is filled with hilarious moments and clever spots. Kaufman tries to use his old tricks, but Lulu Pencil counters with her own brand of humor and resilience. The crowd is thoroughly entertained as the two engage in a battle of wits and wrestling.

Climax: The Surprise Just as Kaufman thinks he has the upper hand, Lulu pulls out a giant pencil from under the ring and uses it to trip Kaufman. She then rolls him up for a quick pin, securing the victory. The crowd erupts in cheers as Lulu Pencil celebrates her win.

Aftermath: The Respect After the match, Kaufman, initially furious, eventually smiles and extends his hand to Lulu. He acknowledges her talent and declares that she has earned his respect. The two shake hands, and Kaufman raises Lulu’s hand in victory, marking the beginning of an unlikely alliance.

WWE Hall of Famer Pete Rose passes away at age 83

He doesn't deserve a thread. Rest in piss.

can you believe that jim cornette and eric bischoff were 100% wrong about aew's tv deal?

Well that was a wonderful 3+ hours of my brand new 31 day old router taking a shit, refusing to respond, not allow any data transfer at all, refusal to properly reset, refusing to properly set up once I did, giving me numerous false positive results when troubleshooting and then after giving up hope and cosigning myself to heading out and buying a new one again before it suddenly, randomly starts working with zero issues and is as good as new.

Guess I'll go post those 800 things I wanted to earlier now lmao

For anyone who really loves to watch a ton of shit, this weekend seems to be loaded as fuck my dudes.
