I think it's very valid to wonder if she's going to go the same way as Punk. There's a lot of similarities. I doubt she'll flame out as spectacularly as Punk, but the ingredients are there.

Who are the people on the roster that Mercedes absolutely cannot be in the same building as?

Saraya, it’s really sad actually

It just boiled over and Mercedes freaked the gently caress out and got into a fight with Ryo mizunami and pushed over a stack of monitors onto Tony khan

The long and short of it is it's extremely weird to post real life fanfiction about someone having a professional meltdown and I would advise you to not continue the conversation.

There's a reason that wrestling in pop culture always without fail contains a chairshot and the simple reason is that chairshots are the coolest wrestling thing ever

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
Meanwhile one of WWE fans biggest stories that they adore is Gunther v Chad Gable over who is the better wrestler to the point they booed Sami Zayn.

She mentioned the person who took her out of action for months and then came in at the end of the night to save her from a beatdown.

Yup. Do you consider that a strong or coherent angle?

rotinaj posted:

Oh god my stoned rear end forgot that I dug that article up because I wanted to see what the deal is with the guy overanalyzing every mention will ospreay has ever made of injuries and his body being beaten up, almost as if njpw is notorious for that

the issue isn't that he says any one thing that is particularly out there by itself, but that there is a pattern emerging of this guy being a dorkus malorkus

Maybe I just miss Babinsack and his New York Times level inane articles.

I think the story is that she wants to fight Willow to try and get her win back but sees Willow has a chance to become a champion first so why not help her and keep her healthy until she wins a belt so she can challenge her for it

It's almost as though professional wrestling was built around fan interaction and reaction until one company found this inconvenient.

I was at my local show today, wearing the newest shirt the guy I support had, and he saw me with it at the second row and reached out to do a handshake, it made me pop big.

He won the match too, going for the Greek Championship, he was on fire.

Because these people can only conceptualize wrestling through the lens of the Vince McMahon and Vince Russo, both men who hated "professional wrestling" and spent 20+ years pounding it into their fans heads that matches are worthless unless one of the competitors spilled coffee on the other before the match or whatever other dumbass car-crash bullshit they could think up.

It doesn't help that even when WWE had "good stories", they were always at the whim of Vince McMahon or his flunkies who would happily rip up months of storytelling if they woke up one morning on the wrong side of bed.

Like, seriously, what was in the lockbox that had Vince so spooked he sicced the Undertaker on Shane?

American Badass Taker would have been Raw Underground champion if it happened in the 00's. That would have been the shits and I kinda wish it happened.

I'd like to see how the haters would respond to "Maybe it's just not for you." Like forget the casual fan. Day time soap operas could change their story to get the casual day time tv fan. Or they could put on a great show that the fans watching want to see and if the station airing it is happy that's cool. It's not always about the casual fan.

Edit: i mean rhetorically if that's the right word. They would just come up with another excuse.
