What went wrong this week:
There’s been better Virusfernales matches to than this one. Main event was good, but nothing you need to go out of you way to see by a long shot. The most interesting thing was the Out Of Costume (but only seen from behind) Monito. He’s treated like a human cartoon, even on the relative lucha libre scale, and so it was just distracting to see him as a normal person (that I really couldn’t focus on what he said this week, or next.)
The second most interesting thing was Ultimo Dragon out right stealing Alex’s Stop sign bit. I’m sure Alex is okay with it.
This is as good place to mention as any that if anyone wanted to figure out regular finishing holds to update Trademark Moves field on the wiki, the easiest thing to do would be to go thru these recaps and just look at the stats for each match. The data is all there, and easy to extract since it’s just looking at the finish listings, it’s just a matter of collating it for each wrestler. It’s not a lot of work, it’s just another idea I have with a bunch of other ideas stacked in front of it.
Worst newest great idea: mimic fantasy sports player trackers, so that all the wcard pages have a list of recent news items attached to them. It’s just take twice the work of what I’m doing now + a bunch of time for set up, but it’d be so useful when it’s up and running and would help fill the hole of lack of profile updates on the wiki. I’d totally blow off everything to start doing it, if there weren’t 20 other projects I’ve got in various states of unfinished-ness. It’s kinda frustrating.
