Hopefully this one will not piss off the booker
I wrote a bit about @actionwrestling.bsky.social's excellent Death Valley Days: Road Report show as a cure for American wrestling's ever-growing problem with Maximalism
proud to announce that I am now a regular host of Violent People Radio, which could be best described as "cumtown but for indie wrestling."
This week's episode is exactly 4 minutes shorter than One Battle After Another & I'm pretty sure I blacked out from exhaustion at the 100 minute mark
Put together some haphazard thoughts on the main event of Revolution (spoiler alert, I hated it)

ugh FINE
hurting myself (watching wXw for a podcast)
if thats a PPV match (or gets 3 more minutes), its a 4. I think my rating will mirror Joe's here.
don't care if you think she hasn't found her gimmick (she has) or that she's boring on the mic (she isn't), her defenses had high ceilings, her spots in the women's B&Gs were beast, the Yuta feud ripped, and she just gave Thekla her best match in years. kris statlander forever champion fuck you.
I'm late on posting this, but:
I wrote a few words about Sabu, his legacy, and honoring the people who have had outside influences on our lives.
And then I wrote many more words about Sabu's children's book.
wrote a few things about Jon Moxley, Chihiro Hashimoto, and (gulp) Blake Monroe

I ended up with ~40 matches that I went **** or higher in 2025. I'm not sure if this is a true representation of my *actual* top matches quite yet, but I wanted to make sure some of these got the love they deserve.
honored & tbh shocked to be invited to vote in the @voicesofwrestling.com MOTY poll, here's what my ballot ended up looking like

WELL IT WAS
Flattered but regular reminder when this occasionally comes up that Kyle is 7000% more jacked and way more handsome.
The Texas Death Match between Jon Moxley & Hangman Adam Page was a big, bad motherfucker of a match, a transcendent AEW moment whose legend will only grow from Saturday, a redemption story so strong it healed some wounds that stretched back to 1997.

Maybe a weird thing to do at 40 years old, but i haven't been motivated since my chapbook came out 4 years ago. So it just feels good to even have the drive to WANT to write something again.
Am going back to school this summer, mostly to put off my loans until this SAVE plan shit is figured out, but putting this into the universe for accountability sake:
I will finish my first feature by Dec 2026 & will eventually take an honest stab at trying to sell it.
