Lead Pipe Cinch posted:Yeah, I am not nearly as into Abadon as others are, but I am very much enjoying this feud already. The “it’s just cosplay”/“I am clearly still afraid” dynamic is a fun inversion on the normal supernatural wrestling angles. I like the implication that Abadon is one of the three * a zombie * a madwoman that thinks she's a zombie * a woman that is cosplaying as a zombie to gently caress with people and is just completely terrifying.

"TNA will be used as a weapon to help defeat the villain WWE" is a plot twist too surreal for even anime I'm just picturing that image of sad Billy Corgan riding the Universal Studios train except enhanced to a million times its usual size

The more I'm thinking about it, the more I think the cut off Kingston promo at the end of last was on purpose. It will give something for him to go Apeshit about next week. He comes out and starts bitching about how he was supposed to have time on the mic following the match, but the company wasted it following kenny, and this will lead to Kingston beefing with Kenny. Or beefing with Trillionaire Tony.

I'm surprised there's not more talk about AEW's number in the demo being 100k under NXT's total number. Unless that's not an apples-to-apples comparison.

Gonzo McFee posted:TNA holds a very special place of contempt for me because it basically behaved like a mix of late WCW and current WWE for the vast majority of its time and absolutely hosed the career of a huge number of the best wrestlers in the world. To be fair, all of the people involved in that are long gone and it's basically being run by Callis and D'Amore, as far as I'm aware They're not really answerable for the time they put the world title on Mick Foley ten years after WWE forcibly retired him; or for the time they hired Bubba The Love Sponge as a Hoganfriend and he racially abused the talent; or the time they wrote Foley off TV by having him punch Bubba on his way out the door except Foley just legit punched the fucker (bang bang) Good TNA times, great TNA memories

cauliflower jones posted:Holy poo poo, MJF made the NY Times Best Performances of 2020 that's awesome on its own, but also a sign of AEW quite quickly getting something that WWE have hunted for and failed to get for years: mainstream media acceptance. It's been more than 20 years since anything WWE did was "cool". AEW - by being alt-mainstream - are managing it quite quickly.

Andrast posted:hire scott steiner to do promos and bury people every week imo You know they say that all men are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Luchasaurus and you can see that statement is not true. See, Luchasaurus is 65 million years old. But I'm a genetic freak and I'm not normal! So you got 30 million years AT BEST. Then you add Brian Cage to the mix, your subjective age drastically goes down. Brian Cage is Wolverine, and Wolverine doesn't age, so he could be millions of years old and not even know it! So Luchasaurus, you take your 30 million years, minus Brian Cage's millions of years, and you're the same age as the rest of us. But then you take my years in the business, and you haven't even been born yet! See Luchasaurus, the numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you at Revolution.

Rarity posted:They've already done it which is generate a ton of buzz and noise. I think anyone expecting this to be a major long-term crossover or Impact becoming a full on second show is nuts but AEW is getting all the attention from this. And with WWE having been an essential monopoly for the last 20 years it also plays into AEW's hands to make other promotions stronger because if more promotions get a bit of flex then that weakens WWE's grip on the industry Yeah, I think AEW has too many moving parts to shift the entire roster into an interpromotional war. It makes more sense that it would just involve the World Title and the members of the Elite/Hangman (probably even Dark Order). Like Sting has only just returned as the avatar of TNT to watch over the title that represents his lineage so it wouldn't make much sense to get him involved. Team Taz, Death Triangle, Inner Circle, etc... they don't need an Impact crossover I was an avid ROH fan in the mid-2000's but completely lost interest when the CZW feud kicked off because I thought that garbage-rear end promotion was so far beneath them that it made ROH look bad. And I missed a whole bunch of great matches, angles and character development. If you'd asked me back then I would have just said "well what can CZW do for ROH?" so I hope anyone repeating that sentiment now will at least give it a chance because there could be some very cool poo poo on the cards.
