Don't know what to say, I use ad and script blockers and dont have any issues with seeing the unread posts counts, not sure what could be causing the issue for you.

Perry Saturn used a Death Valley Driver in WCW. I don't think I've ever loved a move more until Fat Guys doing senton bombs.

He’s a performance fighting enthusiast, as noted in his profile, he’s not setting that bar too high.

It was interesting to see Dave Meltzer maxing out the Takeover ratings at 4.25 stars this week after years of giving out 5-star ratings like candy. I wonder what changed. Surely it couldn't be the word that NXT would be competing directly with AEW.

TNA fan forum moderator who faked his death (from cancer no less) and came back on those forums as his brother. I believe he was caught.

i wonder if it could possibly be because NXT is a stale product and Takeover was a mediocre, boring show

Apart from all the other problems, "AEW doesn't do cosplay" is literally factually wrong. Like, 3 of the office guys literally did cosplay in a main event match.

OFFICIAL RACIST

Women’s wrestling shouldn’t have to look like men’s wrestling to be good posted:

A lot of the criticism against women’s wrestling is based on the presumption that their best matches should look like the men’s best matches. That’s a completely unfair standard.

Most women won’t be able to hit the mat as hard as the men. They won’t be able to leap off the top rope with much power outside of Charlotte and Ember. They won’t be able to run the ropes as fast, or hit their strikes with as much power.

But still wrestlers like Alexa Bliss and the Iconics are graded on an unfair scale meant for an entirely different gender than them.

It’s a similar thing to the fan perception of women during the Divas Era. Yeah, there are some particularly egregious gifs out there, but for the most part, the women could work, just not with the speed, power, or precision of the men. For most of the women on the roster, that’s still the case, and it should be acceptable for them to work the kind of match they’re physically capable of working without being compared to the men.

Maybe people don't like watching the IIconics or Alexa wrestle because they loving suck in the ring. Just a hunch though.

It's so confusing that there are people who want to go back to the Divas era. I don't care how horny you are, you can go 3 hours without looking at underwear models and tugging at your willie.

They've got charisma and are quite entertaining from the bits I've seen of them on UpUpDownDown and I'm sure a smart booker could find a role for them as an undercard act but yeah, none of that actually makes me want to watch them wrestle.
