After the match, they gave Tyrus a commemorative belt so he still has something to carry while on Fox News.

I am asking this without a hint of exaggeration. Is Tyrus the shittiest wrestler to ever have held a title OF ANY KIND in anything that wasn't a bumblefuck indy? I'm talking, I think you could probably go WWE, WCW, ECW, NWA, TNA, ROH, PWG, AEW, NJPW, AJPW, DDT, FMA, WAR, you name it....I think VINCE RUSSO was probably a better wrestler than this, and again, not joking. Judy Bagwell was a WCW Tag Champ, but I bet she'd cook more than Tyrus.

Tyrus looks like he was moving with all the speed of a glacier. If you're reading this post 10+ years in the future, a glacier was a giant block of ice that moved very slowly across the land, like how turtles used to move before they were all obliterated by the climate wars of 2030

haunted bong posted:Tyrus looks like he was moving with all the speed of a glacier. Yeah, I was thinking of how Tyrus did that 747 splash like One Man Gang used to do but it looked like at quarter speed. (Not that OMG wouldn't half-heartedly do it now and then, but he'd probably have put some pep in his step for a title match.)

There was at least a period in which Tyrus looked decent, Khali was always awful.

"Creatively, Billy Corgan and I, both Pisces, both out of our minds creatively," EC3 said. "Kind of like very eccentric and esoteric in a way. I mean, [we're] super-geniuses at a creative level. So I think that's why it's a good fit. I think the industry of wrestling has found itself in a complacent creative bubble. I think it's a lot of replication of [things] people are already seeing, or have seen. I think very few have the courage or the boldness to stand out and be themselves, and that's in every company, ours included."

I would very much like to know the actual circumstances behind why tyrus is like this Is it long covid? He can’t do any cardio or any working out because of that? Did his heart take a hit and he just doesnt have any power to his motor? Is he just fat and lazy?

Also if your boss is convinced you're the best champion in wrestling history, despite presumably watching you wrestle, why try harder?

Because one can see the houses they are drawing and see the matches you are having and go “nobody cares and i am gassed and lying on the ground for half the match, something isn’t right here” Like, if he really thinks he is doing great work here, i would like to know that. I have my doubts that he does, and would like to know what is really to blame. Is it just delusion? It would be interesting to get a legit tell-all book by someone about NWA since Billy Corgan took over

This is not a person with any sort of pride or self-respect. It's all about the money.

This sounds more like you want to dehumanize the guy and turn him into a cartoon character because you have spent entirely too much time in the trump lol thread Yes he super sucks as a human being, and yes he is a sex pest, but saying he is incapable of having pride in himself or self-respect without knowing the guy and digging into his brain is exactly why psychologists have a standing policy of “don’t psychoanalyze people you have only seen on tv”.

The last time I looked at cage match out of curiosity for Tyrus, nearly all his matches since winning the title were tags. The ones that were singles matches rarely went more then 5 minutes. I would argue that Tyrus & Billy both know he can't go anymore and are doing their best to hide that. But even in limited doses he looks awful.

But even in limited doses he looks awful. If you watch these matches you will see they are designed around this. Meaning beyond the booking they will be agented in way where Tyrus can either just stand in the middle of the ring doing nothing or lay on the ground "selling" for awkward stretches.

You have gone too far the other direction and now are reducing a human being to being an evil villain People don’t sit around rubbing their hands and cackling about how evil they are, everybody thinks they are right and they are justified. I am gonna guess that he and billy corgan dont sit down before the show and say “gently caress it, just lie on the mat for ten minutes and then do a bad splash, itll have to do” Just writing off someone and saying “they’re evil and do not have an inner monologue” is dumb as gently caress I do believe i have not said he is a good person who deserves love and affection, i simply want to know what’s going on to make him think these absolutely pathetic matches are actually good

This upcoming EC3 vs. Tom Latimer feud will at least lead to "watchable" title matches going forward. And I'm someone who actually really dug Trevor Murdoch and Tim Storm.
