Wrestling Coverage Whatever #? Who cares: CYN wrestling, Pro Wrestling TV, and Tony Khan era ROH
The CYN gimmick is a cross between Qanon, and Fight Club. This alone kind of puts a limit on how far it’ll go, and whether it’ll last. But I think there’s a way to fix it. I wrote about how to improve Impact Wrestling. #2 & #4 would do wonders for this brand new niche promotion.
Given the theme, and presentation of the brand. It seems to have a conservative but also anarchist vibe to it. I’d recommend getting press coverage from Daily Wire, Russell Brand, and Jimmy Dore. “Counter culture” is your gimmick.
All three present themselves as that as well. Whether or not they actually are is up to you.
CYNW needs to be built around EC3 & Killer Kross. If it’s going to have any longevity at all. Everyone that’s familiar with their work knows their potential. MJF is a hot commodity right now. EC3 could capitalize on this with a promo on Pro Wrestling TV.
“There’d be no Dynasty or Pinnacle without EC3. No MJF, No Richard Holliday, and No Alex Hammerstone! I AM THE REAL 1%er! CM Punk gave you his time because you copied me” – EC3
Wrestling social media does it’s thing. CYNW is suddenly discussed alongside MLW, and AEW. AEW wrestlers love to mention WWE on TV. So, this is free advertising.
Pro Wrestling TV seems to essentially be the same as Pluto TV’s pro wrestling channel, and YouTube. Plenty of free, and on-demand wrestling out there. A lot of vintage wrestling can be watched for free on YouTube.
If Pro Wrestling TV offered remastered versions of what can be found on YouTube that’d be a great selling point. There’s a market for old wrestling.
Try to be the international home for Crash Lucha Libre, and India’s Wrestle Square. This would probably be a MASSIVE money making opportunity for Pro Wrestling TV. Lucha Libre receives less coverage compared to Puroresu. The Indian wrestling scene doesn’t receive coverage at all.
Promotions that Pro Wrestling TV should consider:
1.Crash Lucha Libre
2. Wrestle Square
3. Both old & current XPW (Yes, I’m serious)
4. H2O wrestling
5. Appalachian Mountain Wrestling
6. Chikara
7. Wrestle Circus
8. AIWF Mid Atlantic
9. National Wrestling Conference
10. Herb Abrams UWF
11. USWA
12. Jarrett’s CWA
13. Shimmer
14. Shine
15. CHW Backyard
16. UWFi
17. GLEAT
18. “Wrestling from Chicago” from the Chicago Film Archives
19. South Atlantic Pro Wrestling
20. Singapore Pro Wrestling
A little bit of everything here.
You could advertise CYNW to the free viewers of these promotions during commercial breaks.
I’m just going to go back to what I said earlier. EC3, and Killer Kross are the obvious people to build CYN wrestling around. Killer Kross would be the main villain. Killer Kross, and Scarlett Bordeaux could have a faction. EC3 could be the 1%er anti-hero that cares about the masses.
Plenty of things could be done.
Now for Tony Khan’s ROH. I don’t have too much to say other than I’m happy it was him. But here’s some changes I’d make.
1. Merge ROH world & TV championships
2. Create a Women’s Pure Championship
3. Get rid the six man tag team championship, and create a Women’s tag team division.
ROH would have 4 singles championships, and 2 tag team championships. The Pure Championships would be in equal standing instead of secondary. Because it’s an different approach to the sport.
Women’s tag team wrestling is making a lot of progress. It’d be best for business to get on that train. Billionaire Tony shouldn’t miss this opportunity.
I’m a big fan of wrestling factions. So, if he does go nuts with it that’s cool. Just have the ROH factions invade AEW occasionally. That’d be great.
Bolshevik Baron News: CPUSA-PSL on Ukraine, People’s Party takeover attempt, and more
A Socialist-Monarchist News Segment Brought To You By My Questionable Sanity.
Links to what will be covered: Chechen Troops coming to Ukraine, Liberals attempt to takeover People’s Party, Candace Owens on US-UKR-RUS, Candace Owens 2, CO3, CO4, CO5, PSL on Ukraine, CPUSA on Ukraine, and India’s intent on bypassing sanctions.
Russia’s sending Chechens whose reputation in battle is well known. Both in the Middle East & the MMA octagon. Their ruthless efficiency is well-known. The Ukrainians have the Far Right neo-nazi Azov battalion & “Ghost of Kiev”. The clash should be legendary.
“
The People’s Party is a populist party. These board members wanted to convert it into a more liberal and woke party. They had already begun reorienting the party’s message away from economic populism and towards identity politics, a transformation that alarmed many volunteers. They were supported by contractors who abused their positions of authority in the party to attack our own volunteers, delegates, and even Ralph Nader — who spoke at the opening meeting of the National Organizing Committee — as sexists, racists, and white supremacists for seeking to build class solidarity.
This liberal faction opposed allowing our membership to democratically decide the party’s position on Covid vaccine mandates, going as far as attempting to shut down a party-wide vote and censor and cancel volunteers who discussed it in Slack. They even responded to Rodrigo’s personal story of suffering a vaccine injury, Bell’s palsy, by alleging that it hadn’t actually happened. They sought to replace our universalist message of health care, college, and housing for all with partitioned messages for different identity groups, a staple of Democratic Party campaigns. They were fundamentally reorienting the party away from its populist mission of uniting the left and right against the establishment, a mission they derided as building a “red-brown alliance” and “economic reductionism.” -from the People’s party statement on their attempted liberal coup
There is a common ground between conservatives, and classical leftists that should grow into something more. Disenfranchised populist leaning conservatives should be involved with parties like this. While populism is a rising faction within the GOP & DNC. It’ll never be on the same level as left & right neo-liberalism.
Conservatives should interact with Caleb Maupin , Jackson Hinkle, Infrared HAZ, Jimmy Dore, People’s Party, PSL, CPUSA, and Sameera Khan. There could be an excellent exchange of ideas, and better odds of things being achieved.
I’ve suggested innovative solutions in You want Americans to vote Communist, CPUSA. That could be appealing to people on both sides of the political spectrum. My suggestion on how to fix the economy of Venezuela is something any country could use.
Also conservatives need an actual understanding of leftism. There’s a Marxist archive with works from authors like Daniel DeLeon, and Karl Marx himself. There’s a great YouTube that has a bunch of audiobooks on Marxist theory. It also has a reading of a discussion between HG Wells & Stalin on Marxism versus Liberalism.
Leftists shouldn’t try to appeal to bourgeois liberals. Whether they like it or not they’ve got more in common with the American Right. Conservative Husband, and Communist Wife. What an interesting love story for TV.
The opioid crisis is something both conservatives, and the West Virginia CPUSA care about. More common ground between so-called enemies. The truth is we’re on the same side. We’ve been tricked into being enemies.
The PSL & CPUSA have both rightfully questioned the legitimacy of US actions in Ukraine. As well as stating that Russia does have some valid reasons their actions. Diplomacy is being vigorously promoted by both.
Candace Owens, and some of her notable mutual friends are opposing US involvement. Although it’s from a partisan perspective, it’s still incredible to see. This is evidence that a new ideological movement could be born out of conservatism & real leftism.
Candace Owens brought up Somalia as an example of Western hypocrisy.
United States is SWIFTly damaging dollar dominance. This is quite obvious when a so-called ally is circumventing sanctions. By creating a new payment system in order to do business with Russia. India basically said “Fuck you, Biden administration”
Unipolarity is a rare phenomenon. Multipolarity is more natural. The obvious big four are United States, China, Russia, and India. But I’d also keep an eye on Brazil, Nigeria, and Japan. You never know what could happen.
Thank you for reading!

WCW 6: Demonaltry, Depopulation, WV CPUSA, and Pro Wrestling NOAH! Also some plans for my crypto portfolio
Everyone seems to be concerned about depopulation. Elon Musk, Pope Francis, and Todd the Starbucks sipping reporter guy. Plenty of concern. But this is actually a good thing as long as we have the right mentality.
The easy fix is making movement, and immigration easier. But there’s always a domestic reactionary response. Which means you need to do something else.
Western countries have enough men. We don’t need more men. The men we have are more than enough. But we need a yearly immigration cap for both genders.
100k men who qualify for the H1B visa. Before getting a job in the field that they are qualified for. These men must complete 2 weeks of basic training, and spend 6 months patrolling the Southern border. Sending unauthorized visitors back home, and arresting cartel drug smugglers. Once they’ve completed this, they can apply at SpaceX or something. Men who don’t qualify for the H1B will not be considered.
The yearly immigration cap for women will be 800,000. The immigration offices will help them with housing, and employment. Free English lessons will be given if need be. The ladies will have to cook at the soup kitchen for at least four weeks. As a form of community service. A $500 gift card for Walmart, and $200 UBER gift card will be given to the ladies after completing soup kitchen duty.
Investing in automation, and implementing automation will reduce the need for low skill immigration. Some Westerners will be unemployed because of this. But if we implement universal basic income. It’ll be fine because they’ll have a safety net. They’ll be free to retrain themselves for a new career or business of their own. While that monthly payment of 1,500 is always there.
I personally don’t consider the depopulation issue to be an issue. This great die off will mean cost of living will go down. But we do need to encourage reproduction at some point. My approach is better in my opinion.
Another great thing about universal basic income is that it gives women a choice. They can take a break from working to stay at home until the children are old enough. If that’s something women want to do. The stress about what to do after the baby is born will decrease. This probably would help increase the birthrate slightly.
Look into some of the policies I suggested for the CPUSA. Especially the tower town, and forest preserve part. It’d allow the population to grow without destroying the home of local wildlife.
WV CPUSA’s solution to the opioid epidemic, and more.
The West Virginia CPUSA outlined a very nice solution to the problem. I could be wrong but I don’t see many political groups actually addressing it. But I would do something a little more bold.
The corporations will be given a 3 strike rule. The first strike involves the government owning 25% of the company, and stiff financial penalties. The second strike involves stiff financial penalties, jail time, and all executives must sell their shares of the company stock. The third strike is the revocation of the corporate charter.
This corporation ceases to exist all intellectual property, and other assets will be sold at an auction. Corporate businessmen are an entirely different breed of capitalist. Since they have no ties to most of the communities they deal with. The incentive to do right by them is decreased.
This would be the way to keep them in line. They’re not like Joe that runs the sandwich shop, and fundraises for the kid’s baseball program. These people don’t see people as people just numbers.
Demonaltry by S. Connolly thoughts thus far:
It’s a very easy, and beginner friendly read. An Amazon customer actually posted a negative review because of that. Which is quite silly because it advertises itself as such.
I’m not new to polytheism but infernal worship is definitely something fresh. Well, relatively speaking. I was a Laveyan Satanist in my early teens. When I was obsessed with Rob Zombie & Marilyn Manson. But my interpretation of it was still very theistic.
Now that I’m in my mid twenties. It seems that chthonic & infernal aspects of spirituality are very attractive to me.
I’m under 100 pages in, and it’s a more in-depth version of what the Tiktok occultists give out for free. I’d definitely recommend checking it out. Even if demons are too spooky for you.
Demonaltry is a polytheistic, and syncretic path. It’s heavily influenced by the works of Richard Dukante. Demonaltry believes that most demons are demonized pre-christian divinities.
It’s great that Pro Wrestling NOAH is posting free matches with English commentary. But I feel like they could do something similar to AEW Dark in order to attract international fans. Get them watching Pro Wrestling NOAH every week on YouTube, and watching the big shows on Wrestle Universe. This would have a snowball effect because fans would check out TJPW or DDT as well. CMLL, IWRG, MLW, and NWA also post events on YouTube. There’s nothing wrong with it.
Now let’s focus on the wrestling!
I have to say that I love the commentary. They’re treating it like a sport instead of soap opera. Giving the wrestlers, and the match the respect they deserve.
The former friends Hayata & YO-HEY are in a technical wrestling competition. Both of trying to get the best of the other. The speed & acrobatics is starting to pick up now.
Hayata retains.
The final 6 minutes were absolutely outstanding. Impossible to tell what the end result would be. It’s matches like this that keep people watching.
My 2022 crypto portfolio plans:
Algorand, USDC, Cardano, Avalanche will be the primary four that I acquire this year. I hold a decent amount of Shiba Inu. But I have no desire to purchase more at this time.
The thing I like about Shiba Inu is that it feels like Dogecoin before Elon Musk got into it. Just a fun meme coin to play around with.
I’m also considering buying Polkadot, and Solana. Definitely not buying any Bitcoin. Sorry, Max Keiser. I like cryptos that are fast, and innovative.

Too much hard contact, aggression, and competition! Wrestling is supposed to be fun not painful! They could’ve hurt themselves. Too realistic for me.

Gentleman Jervis versus Orange Cassidy: 5 out of 5 stars!
Fun, playful, and doesn’t take itself too seriously. Lots of funny moments. This is real professional wrestling. Not that painfully competitive crap that Pro NOAH, Ring of Honor, and NJPW produce.

Book The Elite 2: CM Punk versus Nick Aldis part 3
Brief recap: NWA President Billy Corgan announces the rebirth of the territory era. Nick Aldis cuts an excellent promo about his upcoming match with CM Punk. Towards the end of the show, there is a limousine out front. Please read Book The Elite 2 part 2 for more info.
An except from an NWA HQ email to Jim Cornette:
“We’re aware of our past relationship, and it’s unfortunate end. But we’d like to recruit you in our efforts to restore the former glory of the NWA. Your resume speaks for itself. From SMW to OVW to ROH & Impact Wrestling. You’ve been an integral part of this business both as a manager, and a booker.
We’d like to offer 1 million dollar contract with a 25k signing bonus. You’ll be in charge of NWA-OVW, and NWA coverage will be a regular part of your “Drive thru” podcast. Our working relationship with AEW seems to be going South. Will you sit back as Kenny Omega & his outlaw pals destroy the remnants of the business?”
Jim Cornette responded to the email stating that he’d like to do a live phone call on the next edition of NWA power. Billy Corgan agreed to this. Who knows what Jim Cornette could say to Billy? The man is known for holding a grudge. But will he let things go in order to fight a greater enemy?
The start of program:
CM Punk, FTR, Jade Cargill, and Tully Blanchard are in the ring. Tully Blanchard has a microphone.
Tully Blanchard: It’s nice to be back in the NWA, if you can actually call it that! I’m glad that Billy Corgan is finally getting around to rebuilding the National Wrestling Alliance. I guess it took a real champion calling him out for it to happen.
*Tully takes a brief pause to look at CM Punk*
Tully Blanchard: But what would the NWA be without the Four Horsemen? So, I figured that I’d bring it back. Seems like the perfect time too. You’re trying to rebuild, and we want to profit off of that. All the championship gold, money, and power that comes with it.
It belongs to the Four Horsemen.
*Tully Blanchard passes the microphone to CM Punk*
CM Punk: You know I have to admit that Nick Aldis is pretty bold to refer to himself as the “The Man” last week. Meeting Ric Flair must’ve gotten him really excited. But I could’ve held the NWA championship for 16 times too. It’s pretty easy when you’re friends with everyone at the main office. I could even hold the championship for 2,800 days like Bruno did in the WWWF. It’s not that hard with his schedule. But I’ve always been the best in the world. I probably could’ve done it for 5,600 days before vacating it out of boredom.
Quite simply, I’m someone that could’ve been a star in any era. You’re the NWA champion because Billy Corgan met you at the right time. He would’ve had me as his golden goose. If I was willing to lower myself to the point of representing a sad imitation of the original National Wrestling Alliance.
I am the best in the world, and I will save the NWA from itself.
*CM Punk takes a minute to antagonize the NWA crowd like he would in his IWA mid south days*
Nick Aldis comes to the ring by himself, and a member of the ring crew hands him a microphone.
Nick Aldis: I’ve spent more than 1000 days being the man, and representing the NWA honorably. You abandoned professional wrestling for a failed UFC career. Why didn’t you start out on the amateur scene? I think I know why. You’re addicted to the payout, and crowd response that a major company gives.
Mr. BITW is too good to put in his dues. All you got was one loss, and one draw. You’re lucky they didn’t stick to the original decision. Otherwise you’d be 0-2 in the MMA world. All that time with the Gracie’s, and you still got beat.
I will retain the NWA championship, and win your AEW championship.
Because I am…v
*Before he could finish his statement the Four Horsemen attacked him*
Tully Blanchard is directing traffic as the four of them take turns hitting Nick Aldis. Jade Cargill hits Nick Aldis in the berries with the microphone. FTR picks him up to do a double powerbomb onto the NWA championship that’s resting on the canvas. CM Punk gets him up to hit the GTS but that’s stopped as Kamille, JR Kratos, and Aron Stevens come to the rescue.
Tully gets out of the ring, and Billy comes out with a referee. This is officially an 8 man tag team match. The bell is rung but the chaos resumed after a brief exchange between Jade & Kamille. The referee was forced to DQ both sides, and call for security to split them up.
All of them were escorted out of the building.
The second match:
Danhausen & Warhorse versus Bestia 666 & Mecha Wolf aka La Rebelión
Winner is Danhausen & Warhorse.
Due to the chaos at the start of the show, and the impromptu changes to the match card. The original second match has been cut to make time for Billy’s live phone call with Jim Cornette. That match would’ve been James Storm versus Brody King versus Outlandish Zicky Dice.
*Billy Corgan is in the ring*
Billy Corgan: Hello Jim, I’m so glad that you decided to discuss this with me. We’ve been having some issues with those AEW outlaws lately. What’s happened tonight is only a sign of what’s to come I’m sure.
Jim Cornette: Well, it looks like the most hated man in wrestling today is needed once again. I should have my own bat signal at this point. It could be a tennis racket in the night’s sky.
I’m not doing this for the money although that salary is wonderful. This isn’t to help you either. I’ll return to the National Wrestling Alliance to defend the legacy of NWA. I’ve got no problem covering the NWA on Jim Cornette’s Drive Thru, and the experience.
But when I become booker for NWA-OVW after signing that contract. I want full creative control over the promotion, and it’s school. If the Outlaw Four Horsemen come to my territory with gold around their wastes.
They’ll leave without it.
Thank you, Fuck you, Bye !
*Jim Cornette hangs up on Billy Corgan*
Billy Corgan: Well, I guess I’ll have to accept that. Welcome back, Jim Cornette! You haven’t changed a bit.
*The program goes off the air*
Stay tuned for BTE2 part 4!
Learning about Battletech
Stalker mech, and the beginning. My current understanding of Battletech comes from here. Given the recent Games Workshop drama, and 40k players saying they’re interested. I figured that I should have a look too.
Although as someone whose sole interest in anything Warhammer is the story. I don’t have as much skin in the game as a guy with 1000s invested. If I were to play any GW game it’d probably be Necromunda. I think wargaming minis are exceptionally overpriced.
The beginning: Technological breakthrough brings new opportunities, and more problems. A story as old as time itself I like it. The Deimos project was completed in 2108 by the Terran Alliance. Humanity began to expand, and the settlements on other planets weren’t very keen on listening to Earth.
Separatism was building in the early 22nd century. After decades of war the Terran Alliance decided to let plenty of worlds go. Some prosper, and others don’t. Sounds like European colonial imperialism or the decline of any empire really.
The great weakness within the Terran Alliance led to a military coup in 2314. The Terran hegemony took it’s place. The hegemony eventually became a neutral power as five factions fought. But this became quite profitable especially with the birth of the Battlemech.
The Stalker: A very interestingly shaped mech looks slightly inappropriate. It’s not a fancy machine that’s for sure. It was designed in 2594 by triad technologies. Designed for strong defense, and firepower it’s quite slow. But it’s still good in urban areas. The STK-3F has 2 LRM-10, 6 lasers, and 2 SRM-6s .
It seems like a very simple, and useful design kind of like the AK-47. Very nice.
I’ll probably write about it a bit more as I look into it more. Kind of need to make posts about AEW & CMLL too. Probably some Warhammer or SoundCloud reviews too.
