Does anyone else get the feeling that some people are like, extremely hypersensitive to all the things that bad wrestling companies have done over the years and so any time there's even a remote whiff of something that might vaguely remind them of something WCW or TNA or WWE did the immediate response is to go into full on "Oh no ITS HAPPENING AGAIN" mode?

This is 100% what is happening. Anyone who watched WWE since like 2005 - 2014 or beyond basically has ptsd.

American Dragon is going to fight Chuck Taylor to avenge the last loss Bryan Danielson took.

That's understandable and reasonable. So let people voice their thoughts and vent their concerns. I don't get why this place is s resistant to that and prefers to just insult people and act above it all.

Agreed and just to be clear the ones being resistant, insulting and above it all are the ones that disagree with me.

You mean WWE since April 1, 2001

Basically when you watch enough WWE there manifests a Judas In Your Mind and some of us are much closer to becoming it and it makes my posts bad because my pattern recognition skills are extremely misaligned with the actual product.

Nah, it's pretty funny when people post about how the Hangman program is dead and Punks getting the title when the actual TV show very obviously shows that's not what's going to happen.

The progenitor seed that birthed the online wrestling fandom was the idea of who was and was not the good kind of wrestling fan and the taint of that original sin cannot be lifted until the one true world champion Bob Backlund holds the AEW title

Feel bad for Upper Deck, getting into business on AEW on the day the company died but I look forward to their Memento Mori line of cards anyway.

Punk is gonna come out on Rampage and roll up Kenny for the title in 3 minutes, but before he can cut a victory promo Bryan Danielson debuts and challenges him next week.

Danielson then rolls up Punk in 3 minutes and his victory celebration is cut off by Brock Lesnar, etc
