quote:I saw the whole fight and all the ballyhoo before it. May vs Pac did not live up to any of its hype. Casual fans wanted to see someone lose by a KO, what they got was 12 rounds of hugs with both men acting super proud at the end. I love WWE because 9 times out of 10 someone is going to lose after one man/ woman hits their opponent with a finishing move and loses. The decision is actually decisive and the loser doesn't stand tall after. It may be predetermined and scripted, but the action of WWE is unmatched and I am normally thoroughly entertained by at least 1 match on any given night.

I dunno what "sports entertainment" they watch, because "I didn't lose clean" is a storyline they revisit like 20 times a year.

They obviously don't watch Raw where 9 times of 10 the match ends in a DQ/double countout/other bullshit

Not only that, but these are essentially both top 5 fighters, the chances it would end by KO or even TKO were pretty drat slim.

The tag title match. I mean, it's about the most subjective thing in the world, but you asked.

I guess I'm the stupid fan then . Match bored the poo poo out of me. Some of the spots were cool but it just went on forever and a day.

That's...hmmm Isn't one of Dave's criteria how well a match flows from start to finish, as well as telling a story? Possibly how well the story of the match flows from start to finish?

TNAsylum is straight up posting JSO's fanfics nowquote:The decor here is overtly feminine, even girlish in a childlike manner. Everywhere you look are bright pinks and sky blues, soft lighting and toys... lots of toys. In normal circumstances you can call it cute, but I find it oddly unsettling as I stand alone in its surroundings, waiting for my hostesses to come for me. Soon, the rhythmic click of high heel shoes approach and I become more nervous. http://www.tnasylum.com/2015/05/the-valley-of-dolls.html

dsriggs posted:Isn't the point of pro wrestling to make money? Yes, this is why Kevin Nash is the greatest wrestler of all time. This is also why I get such a laugh out of Al Snow, since he has the same philosophy about wrestling as Nash, that it's an artless business existing only to make money, but Al Snow never really drew a dime even in the heyday of Head, and as far as I know was never really a particularly well paid guy.

The Ringside Confessions tumblr really should be posted in this thead multiple times a day. I honestly do not know what show those people are watching, because you get countless posts about how Kane is underrated and Nikki Bella is the best technical wrestler on the roster.

The amount of hate TNAMecca has for Dave's dry reporting of the facts is just adorable. Reality has an anti-TNA bias!

Does TNAMecca think that, if we lived in a world where Meltzer didn't exist, TNA would be a big success? Do they just not like the mean man telling people bad TNA numberes?

Also I'm pretty sure that Meltzer would love nothing more than if there were multiple promotions in the U.S. that were flourishing.

I caught the last Impact and it was pretty good but I can't help but feel a morbid curiosity about a company putting out a good product at its lowest point of relevance ever and teetering ever closer on death's door.
