I like how he's talking about WWE "booking" but also acting like Jeff "couldn't" beat Jinder. Is there booking, or do wrestlers win by sheer talent?

Roman is in a warehouse in Florida and nobody cares. Kenny Omega is selling out buildings in DDT. Sounds about right.

I am going to directly compare Kenny Omega to the man widely considered to have been the greatest theatrical actor of the twentieth century. This is a devastating insult, to me.

karmicknight posted:I want to read the thesis before I actually write a rebuttal (he would probably dm it to me if I asked for, poo poo), but like, conceptually it's not a bad idea so much as it missed the point of using licensed tracks. (showcasing cultural cachet/giving the viewer a way to connect with the wrestler in a way that non-licensed music just cannot) Like, there is a reason that walk-up music in other major sports is licensed tracks, and I want to see if that runs counter to the argument. There are theses, and then there are theses where the marker goes 'yeah it's OK, it fulfils the basic requirements on the checklist, I guess you pass'.

There's an argument to be made that with bespoke production music, they can fit the presentation of the character better. Therefore, the best character-specific music is Kaito Ishida because of how accurately it describes him. I JUST KICKBOY I'M JUST A KICKBOY edit: Huh. Apparently it's not production music. I can't imagine a real band writing this song without wrestling in mind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTcSfR1vbWQ sticklefifer fucked around with this message at 08:44 on Jul 20, 2021 |

Whatever it is they do, DG definitely uses music as well as any wrestling company. So many bangers.

The WWF WWE junkie randomly followed me last year so perhaps becomes the Pro Wrestling WAVE junkie and tries to troll the Stardom and TJPW fans. And if he does that I shall sadly have to stand with him

That Kross lost in such a fashion to Jeff Hardy of all people has to be some kind of troll/rib on hammer Paul. Kross sucks but my god, WWE intentionally torpedoing the NXT champion like that has to be a message to Hunner.

Kross sucks but my god, WWE intentionally torpedoing the NXT champion like that has to be a message to Hunner. Remember when they brought in NXT champion Kevin Owens and had him demolish John Cena and has, to this day, been a fixture of the upper mid-card and a main eventer? Yeah none of that, it honestly feels like WWE views NXT as their competitor not that they literally own it and its theirs. WCW-WWF Invasion all over again.

Meanwhile AEW literally bring in wrestlers from other companies and have them win main event matches against their guys, if the story calls for it.

It’s also funny that they had an opportunity to hotshot the title to Gargano as a safe belt pillow last week knowing this was coming and didn’t take it. Kross has been wresting dark matches so they knew the call up was imminent.

https://twitter.com/GokuBlueGod3/status/1417329413566476302?s=20 It's okay. Kross only had a "half debut". Gotta have Scarlett for a "full debut". So his loss doesn't count.

Vince would've had Goldberg lose the streak to Disco Inferno on a random Nitro in 1997. And a thousand Vincels would defend it because "Disco had his foot on the ropes"

https://twitter.com/jermaine611/status/1417436016567373855?s=20 It only makes sense for Kross to win in NXT since he's their champ. It doesn't make sense for him to win on the main roster.
