It was bad enough when they gave Brodus Clay's gimmick idea to Mark Henry, but now they're giving Austin Aries' gimmick to Big E?

I think the problem with Stardust is that they haven't gone further. Everyone knows that there is an undercard, so why not have fun with it? Give wrestlers powers, let there be maniacal villains bent on taking over and heroes to stop them. Let them fight for the safety of the planet. Kids will eat it up and probably a lot of parents. Put some fun back in the show.

Focus Group Guy: So you want a realistic down-to-earth show that's completely off the wall and swarming with magic robots?

tbh this is literally Lucha Underground and they already have Aerostar who is an ancient magic Aztec spaceship.

Don't exaggerate. He's not an ancient Aztec, he's an alien time traveller.

It seems to be universally an American thing, I don't think i've ever heard an American say couldn't care less. TV, film, music, in person, it's all wrong.

If you're setting your foot somewhere you're stepping with it so it's really just semantics.

This isn't pedantry. The two phrases just about mean the opposite thing. It would be like saying "let's stay inside, it's nice out" then walking out of your house to take advantage of the weather. I know people say things without thinking about it but also THINK ABOUT IT.
