And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

It is kinda hilarious to think how many camera cuts there would be during a segment where a guy stands still and just says the same thing the same way over and over again for like 5 minutes though.

I don't think anyone's ever been allowed the time to do this, but I always wanted to see the person cutting the promo act like the audience just can't hear what he said, and repeat it until they get bored.

"I'm gonna take his title at Summerslam!"
"WHAT"
"I'm gonna take his title at Summerslam!"
"WHAT"
"I'm gonna take his title at Summerslam!"
"WHAT"
"I'm gonna take his title at Summerslam!"

And not escalating either, do it with the exact same cadence and tone of voice. If the crowd leans into it, you've got a new gimmick that's really over until it gets super annoying and dies. If they get bored, it dies sooner.

How does McIntyre evade criticism here

Smack down ratings up the same time Raw ratings plummet

Dead storylines left and right on Raw

Can’t name a single heel that has been elevated by feuding with McIntyre

It’s been a year of feeding everyone and their mom to Drew with zero return on investment, yet the Drew police on SC come out hard any time anyone even begins to question why this guy has been given so much rope to hang the show with.

You really mean to tell me Miz, Bray, Braun, Kofi, AJ, or gasp someone new to the top of the card can’t do better than this?

Hasn't like 90% of Drew's time as champ been spent feuding with Orton?

I think the thing I despise the most about when people use Hana Kimura to defend this kind of poo poo they always make it super clear that they knew nothing about her situation beyond the fact that she committed suicide

Honestly, it speaks to how booking Maki at all was very much a double edged sword. She clearly drew attention and had a banger of an introduction match, but she was never going past round one and that isn't the best thing for anyone who was most interested in her. Hope that the extra attention was worth it in the end.

They're pretty much pushing as hard as possible "Yeah, you're gonna see all of these people in AEW when there's not a loving pandemic.", but, whatever. People have WWE brainrot and can't handle it when someone loses a match, this is a genre of complaint that's just not going away any time soon.

I'm old enough to remember when people complained that Brodie Lee got "buried" when Moxley beat him. He then went on to murder Cody for the TNT title and was set to be a top heel going forward before, well ... real life unfortunately got in the way.

At any rate, we're far enough into AEW's existence now to see that they're very patient with their booking and long-term plans -- a single loss doesn't derail people because it usually plays into a larger story or their general place on the totem pole, and plot points that seem minor today end up paying off huge a few months later.

People are so hung up on WWE's hair-on-fire booking, and Vince's infamous last-minute changes, that they just assume every other promotion works like that despite AEW's obvious evidence of a clear plan and vision.
