Remember when the Acclaimed came out and rapped "Young Cucks you can't beat us you're laughable, Trump really won we gotta storm the capital". Disgusting.

How can it be all heel champs when the greatest role model in wrestling is winning the women's title?

those sound like some terrible odds for a plucky underdog to overcome, he can’t possibly win, this simply isn’t a story that works in pro wrestling

darby ought to lose and then disappear for 3 months. when he returns, he can be wearing full face paint instead of only half, and his evolved form is named The Hateboarder or the Fateboarder if that's too mean. don't know

Lots of people in this thread have expressed not liking The Acclaimed. People have agreed and disagreed reasonably in the main.

Not a lot of people in this thread have called them "pretty much Trump"
Is this why everybody's freaking out and overreacting to the point that I got a custom title of the man who's probably going to be responsible for somebody murdering me soon?

I super don't think they're Trump.

I don't like their act because there are things I don't want in my escapist fantasy and calling people cucks and doing gay panic poo poo reminds me both of Trump and the younger parts of myself I don't like to think about.

I think it's hosed one of you decided me not liking a homophobic tag team who uses the word "cuck" as a pejorative was justification to remind me of how I'm going to die every loving time I post until I can afford to change my title again.

I get up to check on dinner when The Acclaimed are on. I just can't begin to enjoy their work and they come across as the kids whose parents don't pay enough attention so they scream curse words until everybody's looking at them.

So, pretty much Trump. Which you'd think would make me want to see them get beat, but I just can't begin to care beyond wanting the edgelord teenagers who don't know poo poo to stop reminding me of being an edgelord teenager who didn't know poo poo.

You live in a paranoid fantasy nightmare where, alongside all the undeniably real and non-trivial things that impact you and other people in your shoes, every minor thing that you don’t like isn’t just ‘something you don’t like’ but is instead inflated and overstated to join those very real concerns as the absolute pinnacle of awful and terrible.

Get help.

So they are hard pedaling the "Darby is really busted up" stuff. Which lends credence to Miro winning.

why?

Cody setting the initial defense record in the first place is what wore him down to the point that he just got trainwrecked by Brodie

Miro gets the belt from a weakened Darby, Miro runs through the big hoss dudes for a few weeks/months, a healed Darby returns to reclaim his title for a huge rating

it's easy peasy!

Because this is literally just the Cody/Brodie story again if that’s what they do but with a bigger size difference.

I've really enjoyed the slow burn storytelling of the latter part of Darby's reign as TNT champ. The first part was a bit unspecial because it got eaten up with Sting and Team Taz and lurking, but everything from Revolution onwards has been great as the story of a guy doing too much and pushing too hard. He's had seven title defenses in two months, including a falls count anywhere match and a stretch where he did five defenses in four weeks. He's flown really close to the sun. And it's all been environmental storytelling. They've shown us Darby burning himself out, they haven't just told us it was happening. And now entropy, in the form of Miro, is coming to collect.

I'm not gonna read into the whole Young Cucks thing to any deep degree but I will say I found it super goddamn lame and cringe worthy and all of a sudden people are saying they're supposed to be lame but I don't really think the live audience is in on that joke given the way they typically react to the punchlines. They react to them largely like crowds did to Thuganomics Cena's poo poo which is largely why I made the comparison in the first place.

I realize this is a Cavauro post and thus a joke but it's almost distressing how accurately this describes my general feelings on Max Caster but I literally never would have thought of it
