I saw the Snob had a Ric Flair's Last Match poster up and had to see if he was one of the people who bought a custom 3D printed action figure. Sadly he couldn't get off work to go, but he did post this: https://twitter.com/ALeavelle/status/1552925172608401409

Why are wrestling fans so loving weird?

If there's one thing I've learned over the last year and a half since getting back into pro wrestling, it's that a ton of people who don't actually watch wrestling have some very strong opinions about things they have not actually seen personally and in their entirety. A truly remarkable phenomenon

Wrestling fans are weird because all people who obsess over entertainment are weird, and wrestling is designed to get you obsessed in ways other forms of entertainment aren't.

The whole "my personal identity as a human consists solely of the brands I consume" thing is so hosed up because one of the cool things about this PWI is that it will hopefully encourage people who have never seen Stardom before to give it a try, and hopefully some people do. These weirdos are taking Bianca being #2 like a personal insult and it almost feels kinda like the console wars all over again

I unironically think that Colt Cabana vs Jericho would slap, more so with a DO vs JAS brawl outside then Hangman comes out so we get Hangman vs Jericho later on.

colt cabana should just wrestle more, anyway. he's always fun as hell and can pull out some solidly impressive moves when he wants to i do also want to see a matt classic match even if it's just a one-off

also the angle leading into Flair's match was built around legitimate animosities and the work was projected by everyone's greed. No real lore building or storytelling required.

While he's oftten funny it's like cmon man why you getting into this Anyways cause of that he's's prob revered as a deity by the folks who are MCs of this thread, moreso than Jokic and Giannis etc

https://twitter.com/Adamrolston4/status/1585770706486165504 I don't get why people are so resistant to having to go to YouTube or even Google to look someone up if they don't know who they are. Bianca not taking the #1 spot this year has broken so many brains and I hope it happens again next year. Also there is some irony in a huge fan of anime saying that you shouldn't have to look up characters on a wiki if you want to understand them.

It is amazing seeing the people who endlessly whine about having to google wrestlers from AAA or NJPW who show up in AEW cause they don't want to learn about anything outside the show they're watching but have no problem scrounging through HTML and scanning QR codes just to watch a 3 second clip from a youtube video to find answers to a mystery that's already been solved for them

This is the natural continuation of wrestling internet confused about top talents from Japan this summer, with such great hits as: "Who is Okada? I shouldn't have to look him up, AEW should've told me about him on Dynamite with a video package even though it was a huge surprise when he showed up." and "Who is Shibata? I shouldn't have to look him up, AEW should've told me about him on this NJPW crossover PPV they've promoted for weeks even though it was a huge surprise when he showed up."

The funnier thing about the KD analogy is its quite appropriate given the average basketball fan too. Syuri is closer to a Jokic in not being in the biggest market but being far and away the best player whereas KD is a guy whose not even in the top 10 of mvp for this season (only five games in but still). So it is purely name recognition and big market rather than current talent.
