I am so totally mark(o)ing out over the announcement that Marko Stunt has been booked for All In today. He's the champion of my local independent and until JJLINY last night was pretty much just mid south based. He went freaking viral in the last 24 hours and more than doubled his Twitter following all because of his appearance on that show last night. It has made me finally accept that we are living in a golden age of wrestling outside of WWE.

Marko is The Guy. I saw him a couple weeks ago at the SCI tournament in Tennessee and at SUP in Nashville. He has been wrestling at PWF for the past few shows and has been an absolute star each time I’ve seen him.

Dude is insanely talented. You look at his size and would just dismiss him as a punchline wrestler but he is a freaking workhorse.

Maybe they'll use the fact that he has a pin over Flip Gordon to justify him being booked on BTE.

Thinking one of the femal talents wins the Battle Royal. Can't have a modern independent show without an intergender match on the card somewhere. Lethal defending against one of the women would be interesting.

Jay Lethal vs Jordynne Grace would be awesome.

Have there been other female talents announced for the Battle Royal yet?
(I guess the Zombie Princess doesn't count.)

One of the Young Bucks posted a video on Twitter of Brandon Cutler and said he was in.

I'd be pretty surprised if the person who wins the battle royal isn't connected to some longlasting BTE skit like Flip Gordon or Chico.

I've been thinking of a scenario where Flip wins under the guise of Chico and unmasks directly after winning.

What you need is some sort of masked guy for Flip to knockout backstage before the match then tie up and lock in a broom closet to take his place. Then you can even do match coming out of it on an ROH show.

I don't know if this is exactly the best idea, but it's definitely something that sounds accurate to the spirit of BTE. (I can imagine a staredown between the two getting a pop in that crowd.)

But they could just have a legitimate veteran/friend of Dusty win the battle royal to challenge Jay as Machismo.

Whoever wins should have a mirror image match of Savage vs. Steamboat at WM 3 with Lethal. Lethal morphs into Mach after someone backstage sets off that tick with his shoulder. He finds "Elizabeth" backstage maybe Brandi, Tenille, or that Alicia Atout. I think that would probably work best as Chuck or Trent winning that way the other could be his George Steele.

Nick Jackson has a serious case of the flu days before All In. My reaction? Vince is going to great lengths to sabotage this show. The narrative is the flu... but is it really food poisoning? The truth lies with the billionaire dinosaur in Connecticut.
