the more AEW, NJPW, Impact and AAA work together, the more WWE seems like a weird hermit federation in isolation from the rest of the world

like I get that roh's undercard is bad and the booking is stale to the point of rotting, but nwa is just so much worse in every way lol

Turned up at ringside? He did way more than that. He got into a chop-off with Andrade el Idolo with Kenny as their chop-ee and then put Konnan in the Figure Four.

Nah. MLW has a bunch of cool guys like King (Mil) Muertes, Myron Reed, Rivera (Danny Limelight), and like 3 versions of La Parka.

gently caress no, ROH with World Champion Bandido, TV Champion Dragon Lee, Tag Champs Chris Dickinson & Homicide, Pure Champion Jonathan Gresham against Nick Aldis, Tyrus, Aron Stevens & JR Kratos, the former Chris Masters?

It's not even close. NWA could run 50 big PPV shows & not put on as many great matches as were on the last ROH PPV.

Christ, I'd take Flamita on his own over basically the entire NWA roster. I know it's funny to rag on ROH for being lifeless but they've caught my interest.

I certainly don't mind Andrade in AEW but I still say that would've been cool.

NWA is a feeder system for the rest of the FORBIDDEN DOOR promotions. That's fine. That's valuable. Ricky Starks came from NWA. I like Ricky Starks. Do you like Ricky Starks? gently caress them for putting a belt on Tyrus, though.

My question is, RoH or MLW?

I say RoH, because they have Slex comma The Business.

NWA is the worst of the C-Tier promotions. Between ROH and MLW, I'm not sure which is better. The last time I looked at ROH it was unwatchable, but the roster has gotten better since that time. The both seem perfectly fine and if I had more hours and energy I'd watch both tbh.

I think Ricky Starks would have been a pretty good wrestler without the NWA.

Remember when the forbidden door was opened and everyone was so stoked that it would help the women's division by letting Impacts more established stars come over and have big matches and so and so? And then that just never happened cause it turns out the whole deal only exists to put the belt on Kenny and have a runaround to get the Good Brothers in AEW?

I don’t think it’s perfect either but you manage to to complain about it in every thread you post in, including the *checks title* WWF thread

yea ok

I like Drakkel's brand of posting in particular because they tend to talk about repetitive discourse in a negative light, "Oh can't wait to talk about this again", that kind of stuff. But then you read their posts and it's just the same thing over and over. Really beautiful dedication to the craft.

It was really funny to see people talk about how amazing the Knockouts division was and then it to suddenly become clear as people actually watched that it was really poorly booked and TNA wasn't utilizing their talent at all.
