PROGRESS went to quite a bit of effort to reveal their new championship...

 

Should definitely make things more interesting there* as with this title, the champion gets to choose what kind of match they defend it in.

 

*God knows PROGRESS needs a proverbial kick up the rear; it's been fairly dull for the past year or so, pretty much when Travis Banks became their pre-late-2018 Roman Reigns during his world title reign.

So, a week in wrestling (at least in America) is soon gonna look like...

  • Monday: WWE RAW
  • Tuesday: Impact Wrestling
  • Wednesday: NXT + AEW Dynamite
  • Thursday: Catch up on whichever one you didn't watch live on Wednesday
  • Friday: WWE SmackDown & 205 Live (according to the latest rumours)
  • Saturday: MLW Fusion + New Japan Pro Wrestling + WOW - Women of Wrestling + AEW PPVs
  • Sunday: WWE/Impact PPVs

God help us all. 😝 That doesn't even include Ring of Honor - which is all over the place, depending on where you live - and the NWA's upcoming TV show.

I know right, its nuts. I saw someone post about this the other day when the 205 Live rumor started going the rounds. I know plenty of people who say wrestling is dead or on the way to its death etc due to the low ratings and what not - but the fact that we are going to have wrestling on every single day of the week except for Thursdays (for now lol) says a lot. And some of those days of wrestling we are getting, is non-WWE stuff now. Which is great imo considering not even 10 years ago it was WWE or bust basically (I know TNA was around!). A lot of people also say its a great time to be a wrestling fan now, and I'd agree with that statement. I just wish NJPW was on a national TV deal here in the US somehow. 😛

They are, aren't they? Last I heard, they still have a weekly show that airs Saturdays on AXS (the channel that Impact's owners Anthem just bought).

Whattttttt? When did this happen, and why wasn't I told about this? Why am I the last person to find out about these things??! Well, that figures. I could have been watching NJPW for god knows how long now it seems. Bleh I say, bleh!

It's been since January 2015! 😆 It started out as just a best of show, but this year, they started doing same-week broadcasts of their events. Apparently, it's on Fight Network in Canada, too. I don't think it airs here in the UK, though.

Wow, either I heard about this awhile back and completely blanked on it for years now, or I never heard of it until now and boy have I missed some good wrestling over the years. 😛

Meanwhile in the UK...

 

Maybe Theresa May was right when she kept saying "no deal is better than a bad deal". Those teleshopping things ITV run overnight must be too valuable to them.

 

Either way, a 4-day delay + a pre-watershed edited version is a recipe for disaster, probably on a similar scale to WOS Wrestling; most of us will just pirate it rather than wait. Hell, even TNA never had a deal that bad.

 

As for the eventual "live viewing solution" I'm gonna guess it'll be simply letting us stream it on either FITE or B/R Live.

Well, I was right...

...didn't expect it to be paid, though. Bad move, and Tony's lying about the ad break schedules, as anyone here who watches live WWE or NFL on Sky Sports will know.

    • On Tuesday, Microsoft drilled another hole in the duo's sinking relationship with the debut of its MAI-Thinking-1 AI model, a midsize model that the company said is intended for high-efficiency, low-token-cost situations...... https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/article/microsoft-and-openais-relationship-continues-to-crumble-183330195.html  
    • Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI by David Uzondu The Ladybird Browser Project has announced it will no longer accept public pull requests and will limit changes to those made by its maintainers as it works towards its first alpha release. According to Ladybird's creator Andreas Kling, this is "not a change we make lightly," but the rapid shift in AI capabilities forced their hand. Previously, a massive PR implied that the person behind it put a lot of care into the code and is ready to "answer for the consequences." Now with AI, anyone can generate a PR without even understanding the bug fix or feature they want merged. The blog post goes on to say that the team is closing all open public pull requests immediately, and that maintainers will not treat external forks as a review queue for upstream Ladybird. Instead, the team wants outside contributors to focus on reporting bugs and running tests. Kling started Ladybird back in 2019 as LibHTML, a simple HTML viewer for his hobby operating system, SerenityOS, but by September 2022, it had turned into a full-fledged browser project. What sets Ladybird apart from the likes of Google Chrome, Apple Safari, or Mozilla Firefox is its totally independent engine, which does not rely on pre-existing codebases. The project maintains a strict policy against default search engine deals or user data monetization, keeping development funded entirely by donations and sponsorships. Generative AI is forcing open source project maintainers to rethink how they handle public code contributions (and the whole open-source thing in general). One month ago, a leak about the National Health Service (NHS) suggested the organization was planning to take all of its public repositories private ahead of a May 11 deadline, thanks to Mythos (an AI model that Anthropic believes is too dangerous to be released to the public) and its ability to find and write exploits for zero-day vulnerabilities. Thankfully, the Government Digital Service (GDS) issued a counter-report titled "AI, open code and vulnerability risk in the public sector" that stopped the shutdown by pointing out that hiding code does not improve security.

    • I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.
    • I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣
