It's from the music industry. An artist would be scouted by a major label through a connection or referral, but the artist would present themselves as an unsigned independent to get street cred. Once they had gotten some name recognition, they then would actually sign with that same major label. It's gets more complicated but thats the gist.

Maybe WWE should put all their golden boys & girls to work in the indies for 3 years.

CommonShore posted:what does this mean In music it's a term for a performer who's a front for a group of song writers, producers, or the record company at large. A record execs daughter who can sing and has the connections to easily get into the business. I'm not really sure what it means in wrestling outside of Theory being in WWE's ecosystem for most of his career. He's always been one of their guys.

seems very odd for vince to care about hardcore indie wrestling fans, but then again, it's vince mcmahon, who created that bigoted gimmick for ilja dragunov

CommonShore posted:what does this mean More specifically, it means that WWE had him wrestle in indie feds they have a good relationship with to get experience while giving him a verbal agreement that they'll sign him later. If I remember correctly, Kris Statlander had a similar agreement. WWE just never called her back, so she signed with AEW instead. And honestly, it's only shady because WWE does the whole thing under-the-table and otherwise ignores the existence of other promotions entirely. You can definitely do something like this without being a sketchy weirdo about it in theory. EDIT: Other people explained it better already. Just look up in the thread.

The complaints about the Bucks are just baffling. They put people over just as much as they win and they're only tag champs now because of Jeff Hardy's gently caress up They also consistently put on incredible matches. Like I can't even recall a mediocre match they've had in the past couple years

the self-proclaimed casual fans are always exactly the opposite. like yea i only watch wrestling sometimes but i hate The Mark Booker Tony Khan, The Balding EVP Bucks and the Wrestler-Run Creative, things someone who is not completely immersed and obsessed with online wrestling discourse definitely knows and cares about.

I just spoke to my barber, who's a casual fan. He said, and I quote: "Push Wardlow and fire the mark Tony Khan." When I asked how he knew those names, he simply directed me to a large poster of the Young Bucks on the wall, upon which he had scrawled "THE BALDING BUCKS!" Appeal to fans like this and AEW will easily get 80 million viewers every Wednesday, just like the Attitude Era!

everything has to be a grudge match, whether the grudge be shooting someone with a fireball or spilling their coffee- there MUST be a grudge or else why would they have a match, because of rankings? Psh

They're also tag champs because they're the best choice to lose the belts to FTR "Casuals hate the Young Bucks" has been among the weirdest shibboleths I've seen the fedbrained guys repeat though because legit every person I've gotten to watch AEW even for one show had immediately taken to them without needing any additional context

Austin Theory is clearly a psyop. All the worst people on the Internet are now suddenly say he’s amazing when he’s never been better than “acceptable.” A four pushed like a nine.

Whose audience is older these days, NXT or Impact? IIRC they used to be neck and neck with the mega-olds.
