They are being paid to sit out out of Wrestlemania weekend to my understanding. Have posted this on before and before AEW was launched. The Bucks could have made crazy money just signing at Wrestlecon.

Hopefully we get something funny out of them like Heyman after Brock settled with WWE. "Brock can work anywhere he wants." "Can he work for TNA?" "He doesn't want to work for TNA!"davidbix posted:...did they just not post any of this until now? Or was it only IPPV and they've just started posting free clips?

Both Meltzer and Bryan were effusive over the Ronda/Travis segment. Bryan was kind of right though. Ronda would probably just get over as a babyface if they made her do that a lot. Angry Grimace fucked around with this message at 11:22 on Mar 19, 2019 |

So is the new conspiracy theory, Dave Meltzer someone who has openly said he doesn't like Ronda personally is pretending she is good and astroturfed all of the crowd interest in her?

Dave Meltzer is biased against everything I like, and biased for everything I dislike.

What is the deeper meaning when jeongyeon appears to pet herself on the head in the "Heart Shaker" video? is she trying to become calmed down from the nervousness of attempting to confess her feelings? She is very cool

The only way WOR should end is while Dave is going for seven minutes about an unrelated topic, the show slowly fades out without a send-off.

I don't get how you figure that they're pretending or how either you or they are qualified to speak for "anyone in the audience." I thought it was really good, and I even thought it was less good than Dave and Bryan did.

Not everything is some elaborate behind-the-scenes political ploy. It's just a TV show. Meltzer and Bryan just liked the angle, which in fact lots of people like. I mean, okay I guess it is at least possible in theory that Dave Meltzer is working an angle to put over Ronda Rousey to his podcast subscribers for some kind of nefarious behind-the-scenes reason but that sounds like working yourself into a shoot because it's just a TV show. If you actually believe Meltzer is taking your money to lie to you about the quality of a TV show he rips on multiple times a week, you should probably not subscribe to his podcast.

long-rear end nips Diane posted:lol nobody pushing meltzer conspiracy theories subscribes or even listens to the podcast The problem is that the people who tend to subscribe to Meltzer are also people who don't watch wrestling as a TV show and instead focus intently on the backstage meaning of everything, even things Meltzer says. MassRafTer posted:Said a couple of times he did not like dealing with her during her time in UFC and was a little more blunt about it after her signing with WWE when people were predicting she'd flop. I mean, I don't know Rousey whatsoever, and Meltzer seems to buy that she's rattled by getting negative reactions, but having clicked on a couple of her video blog things she looks like she's having the time of her life, which you would imagine to be the case when they book you to be the biggest asskicker in wrestling and to never lose in your first year and also to main event WrestleMania. Sure, that could easily just be window dressing, but as far as I know she actually likes wrestling and liked it well ahead of signing, so I would think she understands the concept of getting heat when you get booked against a totally-over-the-top babyface like Becky Lynch.

davidbix posted:I don't think anyone thinks that, but there's no way he'd be defending the "scripted" stuff he excoriated Russo for if his friend of 30+ years wasn't involved. I don't think his take on it is unreasonable though. I think there's a point to be made that what Rousey is doing isn't of the same character as "Goldberg is going off script!" I don't think kayfabe itself is inherently an invalid subject for an angle, it's more that the only real experience we have with doing any kind of storyline involving it is WCW when it was plummeting off a cliff. They're pretty carefully managing that they don't have Ronda cut anything close to her blog stuff on TV. She makes references to the stuff, but when you think about it, those references only make sense if you have external context. I watch the show with my roommate who is a regular watcher, but also just a casual fan and he didn't understand any of the stuff she was saying when she was calling it a carny sideshow or whatever. He just figured she was saying nobody can beat her and that it's a joke to suggest they could.

The only way the ronda angle could end in a satisfying way for me is if she shoot kicks Vince in the face and then leaves to start a shoot style promotion with most of the NXT wrestlers Call it the Ultimate Wrestling Foundation

Wow, thanks so much for sharing that vid. I hosted a wrestling night and had a friend comment that switching from NJPW matches to WWE made him nauseous. I have to send that to him. Why do they still insist on doing that?! It's just terrible. Half the moves you miss because they are too busy zooming in and out. There was a Daniel Bryan flying knee for the finish I watched recently, you never even get to see his knee. W...T... F? Why??

I'm positive I remember that WWE's camerawork/cutting used to be pretty good and even impressive at times way back when, but now I'm worried I just didn't notice how bad it was. It does feel like it has gotten noticably worse the last few years.
