Basically all the football leagues in the UK from the premier league down to a bunch of lads from your local pub signed up to the local Sunday league team can be in the same pyramid system. My brother plays for a team that if they were to be promoted for something stupid like fifteen years in a row would end up in the Premier League.

The US league system doesn’t relegate, which is a real shame, but it does have a few levels and there is a yearly tournament which the smaller teams can dream about. Doesn’t happen often but the Charleston Battery made the finals in 2008 and the Rochester Rhinos won in 1999. You often have one Cinderella team to cheer for until the disappointment of the quarterfinals.

Someone on reddit is defending it because its taken out of context.

Context

He's defending Rock vs Cena main eventing WM twice.

The context makes it actually worse.

This could be the most one-sided fight since 1973 when Ali faced an eighty-foot tall mechanical Joe Frazier. My memory isn't what it used to be, but I think the entire Earth was destroyed.

He was definitely instructed to talk poo poo about punk, for the same reason they’re putting all of his wwe matches up. Drive seo, get people to see the headline “roman reigns better than cm punk?” When they google his name tomorrow night when he’s trending.

I'll be honest. Even if this guerilla search engine terrorism was working right now. I don't think WWE are smart enough to actually think of that.

It did giant business both times so it was the right WWE move to make. Love Punk but inserting him into that as a third wheel just to get pinned (which he basically says he wanted on the Cabana cast!) was not the right move.


WWE was wrong about basically everything they did with Punk but this was not it.

Rock vs Cena is a fine idea on paper but the build for both matches was dogshit. Furthermore, they probably could have done Punk vs Rock vs Cena and kept the intrigue while protecting Cena, and Punk could have had an even longer reign while still making Rock look good for being the guy to beat him AND you could have run Cena vs Rock again next year. Cena could have won the Rumble, or you could have Cena win at Summerslam and then do it again at WM.

They chose the shittiest, least interesting option.

I don't think Mick Foley should manage anyone in AEW, but I think I'd love it if they just put him backstage during shows and filmed him and showed interactions between him and people who pass by on Dynamite. Just him being genuinely happy to talk to people he's meeting for the first time or has known for a long time.

Punk is a guy Mick Foley saw in early ROH along with Samoa Joe and went to bat for constantly. Dude really wants wrestling to be good and cares about what came after him.

A lot of legends seem to be making overtures towards AEW, and I’m sure AEW is happy to be able to associate with them too. At the very least, the video game is going to have an amazing roster.
