It bears mentioning that (I'm in the same Discord) that person later stated they liked the match. Not sure how much of that is them walking it back after some backlash. E: And yeah, I'm sometimes tempted to post takes from there here too but I can usually just barely hold myself back. That was one of the most baffling takes there in a while, though.

TV Zombie posted:What’s that persons idea of wrestling then? Catknife posted:Look, my tastes are purely subjective. I grew up watching eighties wrestling. A lot of guys back then weren’t physically able to do the stuff that guys today can. Eighties wrestling, for the most part was more grappling, much less running. Catknife posted:Go watch an old Bob Backlund match if you want to see what 10 minutes of limb work looks like. So yeah, his idea of wrestling is "Specifically what I personally watched as a child." And like IGgy said he eventually said it was a great match but he didn't like Kenny's style so

It's true, I would lose my poo poo if I had to watch Bob Backlund work a limb for 10 minutes. We have ZSJ doing it know and he's way better

I legit loved the NOAH match which had the half hour stare off and also had an extended sequence where the big guy sat on the other guy and tried to force his shoulders down for 10 minutes and the ref had to repeatedly put his fingers under the shoulders to make sure they were touching the ground. Edit: There should be more spots where a big guy sits on a smaller guy fez_machine fucked around with this message at 14:26 on Sep 23, 2021 |

Okada can never be the greatest due to the Ric flair test. Can you get a good match out of a broom. I would extend this to any inanimate object and observe these results: Omega: sex doll Ibushi: sex doll, teddy bear Ishii: Honma Unfortunately for Okada, despite being more closely related to a crab than a human, Marty Scurll is still animate.

Can't wait to see the hot takes from the people who said the Turner Networks hate AEW, which is why they're shipping them off to TBS, since it was just announced TNT will be keeping Rampage next year.

quote:The problem is ithat AEW doesn't seem at all invested in building up any of the other women. Britt didn't magically get over, and it for goddamn sure wasn't organic...they concentrated most of the effort in the division on her since day one. When things weren't working, they circled the wagons and had lots of the top brass / most experienced personal work with her...something that she's admitted continues to this day. Man, I would like Shida back on Dynamite too, but give Britt some goddamn credit.

IGgy IGsen posted:But what about Bray Okada? The talent and skill of pre-pandemic Okada was taken away from him, just like with the basketball players in Space Jam, by Windham Rotunda. Okada must travel to the USA and best his adversary in order to regain what was taken from him, and return to the top of the card. The story writes itself, hire me Coward Gedo.

I'm pretty sure I watched King of the Ring 1998 and I honestly can't remember a thing about it E: OK, that was when Mick Foley got thrown off the top of the HiaC cage. For some reason I thought that happened on a different show.
