KiLynn King has been seen on AEW Dark and a few eps of Dynamite, and is currently mostly seen in NWA and CCW. She is the current CCW Women's champ and is currently chasing the title for NWA Women's champ as well.

AEW should have Signed Kilynn King. I watched her from when she debuted on Dark through her entire AEW run But I am glad he has had a lot of great success on the indies.

From what I heard, she doesn't want to be tied down to any one promotion. She wants to appear in as many wrestling promotions as possible. Though to be honest, AEW does allow you to wrestle elsewhere, but I'll be doing my homework this weekend to find out more.

She actually posted about wanting any extra bookings/ wrestling debuts and interviews to be set for the rest of the year, and I was lucky enough to get a response.



Our latest episode is up, just to give you guys an idea of how we get along and all that. Again, I'll post the link here whenever the KiLynn interview goes down.

Just when you think this weekend couldn't get any more dramatic

Johnathan Gresham has asked for his release from AEW & ROH and reportedly 'cussed out' Tony Khan, the full report said he felt disrespected by the company and he will be taking a break from the industry.

Also Tully Enterprises was extremely short lived. Just announced at the previous RoH event, now 'purchased' by Prince Nana and renamed The Embassy.

I haven't heard details of why or what happened to Tully behind the scenes.

[Coola Yagami]

Here we go guys. There were a few stumbles here and there since it being a Zoom meeting means it's all in one take, so to speak, but overall it turned out alright and KiLynn was very nice and patient with us. Really chill, I could feel her excitement.

If it seemed I kinda rushed things near the end, she does have to wake earlier than expected for matches tomorrow, so I didn't want to wear her out longer than she wanted, but at the same time for the crew it was like 'ok guys, now or never time, if you're gonna ask her something, the time is now'.

Overall a fun experience and she thanked us lots after the show was over. I really wish her the best and hope she makes it far in her career.

While it's cool to see Dakota and Io come back, I kinda thought that with Triple H stepping in they were gonna stop with that renaming crap.

My god the Ric Flair match was hard to watch. Legit thought the guy was gonna die in the ring. Most of it looked like he was trying hard not to pass out just standing there. Like I know we need a story and stakes, but my god they should have booked it better so he didn't have to take so many bumps. Who's bright idea was to have Lethal suplex him???

I guess I was expecting it to be more a 'feel good' match where the younger guys did most of the work and Flair would just be tagged in to throw a few chops, strut and say WOOOO a few times. Maybe have Andrade do his finisher and tag Flair in to pin the guy. Badabing, Badaboom, that's a career. But no, they went all-out war for this match, which wouldn't have been so bad if Flair was more in Sting's or even Double J's condition.

Please Ric Flair, just end it here man.

[joe-eyeball]

Yeah his last match was a bit hard to watch but I’m glad he survived it and hopefully he is officially done with in ring action going forward. I think once he really absorbs and rewatches that match it’ll finally be clear to him it’s over for good.

Overall I think that show was pretty good. They assembled a pretty good roster of talent and put on a good show overall!

Sasha and Naomi are on their way back

Becky Lynch has a separated shoulder and will be out of action for a few months

[Leo656]

Let's hope she doesn't lose any more weight between now and then or she's gonna disappear into the Phantom Zone.

As someone who has watched TNA/Impact since its inception Madison Rayne is a fantastic choice as coach for the Women's Division. She has tons of experience.
