It's the only plausible explanation for the unhinged insanity I see the past few weeks (basically since AEW's Arthur Ashe show).

Every post on wrestling twitter is FILLED to the brim with accounts that have fake names and fake pictures replying with the most demented ramblings imaginable.

Either actual human beings (who are not being paid) have cracked and gone completely mad, or WWE has contracted a Chinese or Russian bot farm to flood social media with WWE propaganda.

I'm upgrading my current PC from 2009 and want to go with a mini PC. My baseline is the ability to play 4K YouTube at 60fps flawlessly. No dropped frames.

Two cheapest options that are currently available look to be the new Beelink U59 with the Celeron 5095 and the 7th gen NUC with Pentium J5005 CPU.

7th gen NUC is roughly $400 CAD all in. Beelink U59 is roughly $350 all in.

Beelink is 11th gen intel and can run W11 without modifying the ISO. Also should be more powerful than the NUC, though there haven't been many reviews or benchmarks of the 5095.

TLDR: Should I pay more for a much older NUC due to trusting Intel manufacturing more than Beelink? I'd want this PC to last, problem-free,

Watching the YouTube clips of Punk's match from Rampage and I see they did the corny, overused "boo", "yay" spot where both guys stand in the middle of the ring and trade strikes while a bunch of grown adult men go "boo!!!", then "yay!!!" like little kids. It's so cringe and it happens so often in AEW matches. Why?!

The spot itself makes little sense, and the reaction it generates from the crowd makes wrestling seem so uncool. I've always hated the "fight forever" and "this is awesome" and "you deserve it" chants, but this "boo", then "yay" stuff is the dirt worst.

I watched in real time as WCW buckled from oversaturation. I took a while longer, but same happened to WWF (creatively anyway).

4 hours a week of A-show content is just way too much. You burn through too many big matches and burn out all of your angles.

As I'm typing this, the show's been on for 65 minutes and it's already starting to drag a bit, though the timeslot probably has a lot to do with that, plus being a taped show.

By the looks of it, the building was half empty for the main event. Pics are up all over twitter.

Legit feel bad for Eddie Kingston performing in his home town when half the crowd already walked out and didn’t bother staying for his match.

There was no need to tape an hour of Elevation tonight. Show could have ended no later than 11 pm and you’d have a mostly full building to close the show.

The last Elevation was 90 minutes, which could have been split into two 45 minute episodes.

No major event should have people streaming out of the building during the show. Tony needs to learn from this.

Hearing they are taping 5+ hours at tonight’s show. That’s just too much for a weekday evening. And going past midnight?! On a Wednesday? People have work and school.

What’s left of the crowd (75%?) is going to be exhausted by the time of the last match, which is reportedly the Moxley/Kingston tag.

They need to start being more sensitive to people’s time. A non-PPV show should never be more than 3 hours. And nowhere remotely close to 5 hours.

That’s like watching 2 hockey or basketball games back-to-back. Way too much.

I believe this will be their 2nd biggest attendance ever for a Dynamite with roughly 12,000 tickets already sold. There's only 3 matches announced so far. Cole's debut is nice, but Darby-Spears and Cargill-Hirsh are just kinda there.

Dynamite usually has at least 5 matches, so I would have expected some word by this weekend on a main event and possible co-main. I'd assume they'd want to put at least one of Omega, Punk, or Danielson in the main event.

I know we've got Grand Slam the following week, but they shouldn't sleep on 12,000 people for the first time in New Jersey either. Consider that most tickets were bought for Blood and Guts, I was thinking Elite vs. Danielson/Cage/Jurassic Expr
