I'm Drea. I fangirl, therefore I am. I also promise to stop misquoting Descartes. My tags are epic, my fandoms are small, there be half-naked wrestling dudes in these posts. Your local English teacher who abuses the thesaurus for fun and profit. Old enough to be your mom, now get off my lawn.
“I know Japanese wrestling history, that’s why I give a kiss to the logo in the middle of the ring. Take my hand, put a little kiss on it out of respect.” // “To wrestle in that New Japan Pro Wrestling mat, that logo with the lion face, that means something to me.”
Eddie Kingston and Jon Moxley on wrestling for NJPW
NJPW:CapitalCollision(2022)
May 10, 2022: The NXT women’s division made history on this episode as it was the first one in NXT history to have featured all women’s matches on the show (aside from the two men in the mixed tag) and not a single man vs man or tag.
Nominations are open for this year’s round of Extreme Deadline! Please be sure to disambiguate your nominations!!
If you tried to nominate last night, there was a tag set glitch that prevented me from setting fandom/pairing/character limits correctly and I didn’t learn about it until this afternoon. Should be all right now, please come resubmit!
Extreme Deadline is a fic exchange for wrestling, open to any/all companies and wrestlers/pairings. You’ll submit the wrestlers/pairings/scenarios you’d like to receive and you’ll be matched with an author who will fill that request, and you do the same for your recipient. There are so many new wrestling fans I’ve seen here on Tumblr, and I’d love to make ExD a bigger fest. Join us! Have fun, get fic, find new authors, profit!
The first step is going to the AO3 link above and adding your nominations for wrestlers and pairings. The mods have asked that you disambiguate your noms. That means IGNORING the AO3 pre-sets and typing the person/pairing in manually, including which company you’re requesting.
Example:
“Kenny Omega (AEW)” and/or “Kenny Omega (NJPW)”, not the pre-set of “Kenny Omega” (because that is included in SO MANY tags).
“Jon Moxley/Bryan Danielson (AEW)”, not the pre-set of “Dean Ambrose | Jon Moxley/Daniel Bryan”, because that’s linked to WWE.
Nominating people will help later when it’s time to submit your requests and offers of what you’d like and what you can write. I’ve sadly had to pick a different pairing or wrestler because I’ve forgotten to nominate my faves. Nominating is like calling dibs - it lets the mods know which pairings to include as options, because without options, they can’t match offers and recipients.
Updated as BCF is no longer taking donations and asking for donations to other groups such as Black Love Resists in the Rust (I fundraised for them through 2020 Bakers Against Racism) and Rooted In Love.
“One of the most loved pairings in Doctor Who’s history have reunited and are filming scenes that are due to air in 2023 to coincide with the show’s 60th anniversary celebrations.“
