Can anybody who attended last night's Brandi Carlile show at the Gorge report on how bad traffic was? We're coming today from Seattle and wondering what to expect.

Honestly was not expecting Eric Church to give one of the best commencement speeches of all time.

@allan_cheapshot Austin had power outages in a lot of his matches -- Starrcade '93; In Your House: Beware of Dog. Even one house show I saw in Columbia, SC, where the lights went out on Austin-Sting and so the Flair-Steamboat main event was a "dark match." Austin had his own electricity. :)

Timing is everything. I just happened to be in legendary Lexington, NC BBQ as news broke on expanded March Madness. It took all of 3 minutes for an old dude in a Duke hat to say to a friend in an NC State shirt "So, y'all gonna lose in the First First Four now?"

Fantastic wrestling and storytelling on #AEWDynamite tonight. Take someone who has never watched this company in their lives, show them those two hours and the entire @DarbyAllin journey is right there in front of you.

#Disney friends, this is worthy of comment. Thoughts?

Want to know how Jon Moxley and Renee Paquette split chores at home? Parenting styles? How they handle working together? A great interview and heartwarming read from @smFISHMAN @TVInsider #AEW #AEWDynamite

[Scott Fishman @smFISHMAN]

I got to sit down with @JonMoxley and @ReneePaquette for an exclusive chat as they provide a rare glimpse of their life outside the @AEW ring. Plus, the power couple talks career, what makes them tick, who controls the remote, and more. https://t.co/Rfh60zNikU #AEWDynamite

Pro wrestlers aren't just "characters," they're real people with real jobs -- but so often, online critics get personal. Thea Hail reminds us why that is so hurtful: If you saw a 22-year-old like her at Publix, would you insult her to her face? https://t.co/s7ySPSUv2p

[THEA HA!L @theahail_wwe]

spread positivity. too much hate is in this world, don’t add anymore to it.

@smFISHMAN Fantastic video package for its time (and really for any time).

NEW #WRESTLING POST: I enjoyed "Rough House," the story of a father and son on Georgia indies and that subculture. @AlisonLynMiller was a wrestling newbie before her reporting, and it gives it a smart, unique approach. My talk with her @orlandosentinel: https://t.co/ktwRqyQzUF

[Jay Reddick @runninjay]

I'll be interested to see how this is received. Is it a freakshow fight or will it be competitive? Will you watch?

Brody King was reportedly blocked from appearing on #AEWDynamite by Warner Bros Discovery over fear that his appearance would prompt more “F*** ICE” chants, per @davemeltzerWON via Wrestling Observer Radio

[Jay Reddick @runninjay]

.@Brodyxking, on his earlier protests against ICE which prompted the viral chant: "I look at things in a very human way of what I feel is right and wrong. I like trying to stand up for people who don't have the voice to speak up for themselves." #AEW
