I’m a hardcore wrestling fan, by which I mean I’m a hardcore fan of wrestling... but I also have nothing against hardcore wrestling! I’ve been watching since 2006, back when I was 12 years old. In that time I’ve fervently followed WWE, TNA, ROH, Lucha Underground and others. Today I’m most passionate about NXT, New Japan and especially AEW! You could call me a modern wrestling savant but I know my old school stuff as well... I’ll be your huckleberry all night long.

AEW Dark begins, Taz and Excalibur are back in action for this one, it’s being called a Supersized edition of Dark and that seems about right to me. We’ve got nine matches on tap tonight, the show comes out to an hour and 13 minutes.

Before the match, Colt takes his time carefully folding his shirt before callously throwing it out of the ring. Colt Cabana vs. Shawn Dean Colt fakes high but then gets…

So it didn’t make a lot of sense to put much spotlight on them in that form. Tonight’s a little different though… tonight we’ve got nine matches to look forward to! That’s a lot! Granted aside from the main event…

Edge says he knows WrestleMania is not the end for Edge. If you watched the video last week, you saw the video package promoting that Edge would be back hunting for the Viper. But they didn’t come to him first. Edge says he got his pound of flesh, and he and his family are ready to move on. Randy Orton interrupts. Randy…

WWE Monday Night Raw continues. The Street Profits are celebrating their basketball victory over the Viking Raiders only for Erik and Ivar to correct them and state that they let them win. To demonstrate this, we see Ivar hitting several 3 pointers, and finally we end with a dunk! Just when I thought there was no dunk to be found, here it is. Absolutely incredible. Still I’m not adjusting the previous article, they chose to wait until the game was over to do this so it’s gonna go down as a loss in the Overtimer’s official record books. Sorry but…

WWE Monday Night Raw continues. Rey is being checked on at the doctor’s table backstage, his eye still covered in blood as Aleister Black stands above him.

WWE Monday Night Raw rolls on. Shayna Baszler backstage is interviewed about Becky Lynch’s pregnancy announcement for some silly reason. This is a pretty big series of burns here.

Claims that the baby will for sure be a loser, just…
