No the boobplex was someone else maybe Candice. It would suck being booked against Joey and not wanting to touch his dick like what would you do?

Actually, Andrew Zarian seems to be the one who gets more information lately. Dave has some insight into the legitimate inner workings of WWE from his years reporting, but his sources have dried up as well.

But what do I know, I only pay to hear Craig give Bryan poo poo. Or Mark's once a year Rumble rant.

promotions as ranked by cagematch user Zo-Zu

On DDT
[1.0] "I don't get it. I REALLY don't get it. You can't tell us this is all a work and a goof and that the stakes don't matter and then try to make us care about matches afterwards. It doesn't work. You don't splice Wile E. Coyote and The Road Runner into No Country For Old Men and expect it to pan out either. Maybe it's cultural, but this is trash. It's not funny, it's not creative and what good wrestling there is is wasted on gimmickry and booking decisions. Hard pass."

On Chikara
2.0 "There's an air of insecurity clinging to Chikara, whose in-ring work is largely pedestrian at best. The booking decisions, the angles, the gimmicks and the general presence of it reeks of New Generation WWF, but made inexplicably even worse by an air of smugness and pop culture oversaturation that clings to it. It could only have been born in the internet age, and like millions of marks around the world, it thinks that subsuming its whole identity into its favourite anime and video games is a passable enough attempt at a personality. It isn't. And when Chikara aren't being patently insulting in the name of comedy, they're putting on sad, lumbering, awkward play-wrestling matches to crowds who will mark out to anything. Dreadful promotion."

on PWG
4.0 PWG is solely responsible for tipping the balance of American indies away from providing a legitimate and authentic alternative to the anodyne WWE and TNA products and into high gimmickry, overabundance of spots and a cheeky, cynical toying with kayfabe that borders on the obnoxious. In 2019 they are the same as they ever were, but the spawn they have influenced have now lapped them. Too bad.

on The WWE
4.0 Were it not buoyed by a rich history with some genuinely pretty good matches, and a genuinely quite good development program, it would be hard to find nice things to say about the current WWE product, legitimately amongst the worst products in wrestling today. If you find that your stomach doesn't turn at the insulting and ridiculous rebranding of wrestling as " sports entertainment" and wrestlers as " superstars" , you may just be able to digest anything. And maybe that includes pitiful, weak and undercooked matches, bizarre and schizophrenic booking decisions and open contempt for the larger audience. WWE in 2019 is a shambles which, for all its scope, budget and oversaturated air time, can't overcome its own egomania. A cancerous presence in the industry and not remotely deserving of its attention.

On Impact
8.0 just a raiting

on SMW
10.0 The short lived SMW was a sentiment so noble and of such warmth and genuineness that it could bring a tear to the eye. Sadly, it was not to be. Cornette's vision for what pro-wrestling is and should be (not all that different from mine) was simply incompatible in the nascent era of sports entertainment, and against the juggernaut size of WWF and WCW or the audacious spectacle of ECW it couldn't compete. The time is right for a revitalisation, with broadcasting easier than ever, the style SMW perfected is needed in wrestling now more than ever.

[7.0] "Rey Fenix has declined as a performer in the past year. His lack of selling, psychology and storytelling that prevent him from becoming one of the top wrestlers in the world has always been there, but his high flying and breath taking offence has also gone down a notch over the past year. Frequent botches are now occurring, which were very rare between 2017 - mid 2020. He's still an entertaining talent, but dropped from the ranks of top performers on a consistent basis."

Damian wrote on 08.03.2021:
[0.0] "Chuck Taylor is what would happen if you took everything I hate about pro wrestling and put them all inside a body. He is the archetype of wrestler I dislike the most. He has an atrocious look, he is a terrible promo, he can't work a character for poo poo and even amongst Indie Darlings he might be one of the absolute worst from an in-ring standpoint. But unfortunately the negatives don't stop there with Chuck. His ironic approach on wrestling devalues everything he touches. He has to do some dumb horseshit attempt of humor in everything he does, like the FTR Weenies or the loving hand grenade, or the hugs etc. Even his Dustin run in Evolve, where he was supposedly a more serious version o him, sucked."

woah a second damian opinion

Damian wrote on 13.05.2020:
[4.0] "When the question is Trent? the answer should be "embarrassing gimmick, zero promo skills, charisma vacuum". He has been the Jannetty in tag teams with Rocky Romero, Chuck Taylor and Caylen Croft."

hmm damian seems like they are gonna have some opinions.

Damian wrote on 20.04.2020:
[5.0] "He (Darby Allen) is the embodiment of "I''m 14 and this is 2007". Tiny, with no muscle in his body, emo-punk skateboarder, truly lives in a society bottom text etc. Edgy dark and moody wannabe Jeff Hardy. His in-ring work is not bad but his character work is trash. He also seems like a very bad human being, so it doesn't help he portrays a babyface."

Damian wrote on
[4.0] "One (Dean Malenko) of the most lethargic, uninteresting, uninspiring nobodies in the history of wrestling. He was solid in the ring. He was like a 7/10. Promos? 0/10. Character work? A solid 2/10. Size? 3/10. Look? 3/10. Yet he has a higher rating than guys like Booker T. What the gently caress wrestling fans."

this person says character work a lot lets check the likes

Damian wrote on 14.06.2021:
[10.0] "It's finally time to revise my rating, and bump it from a 9 to a 10. Roman has improved a lot these past few years. He might even be the best overall package in wrestling today. He looks like a God, he can talk, he can do character work, he is a great babyface and an even better heel and his endless list of classic matches really shows how awesome he is inside the ring."

Damian wrote on 14.01.2020:
[7.0] "My dude's you can't have The Ultimate loving Warrior at 4, 5. He wasn't good in the ring but he could be carried to a good match (but never great) but he was one of the coolest wrestlers around. Great look, great gimmick, great intensity, amazing (but nonsensical) promos, big personality, that dude had everything. If only he could wrestle a bit better he would be an absolute 10."

[0.0] "This is not pro-wrestling, this is a slaughter show. I watched their documentary via YouTube on Vice and yeah mad props for doing that crappy stunt but yeah, still a disgrace of the promotion. Upon watching its highlights on the most gruesome CZW moments, like throwing through pile of glass, light tubes, chainsaw FFS, nails, glass shards, is that even wrestling. The zero rating truly deserve it and only deranged idiots would love this garbage."

His stoicism and longevity created an aura only matched by the murder grandpa Minoru Suzuki, and was a great in-ring performer as his unwavering grim determination let his opponents show amazing emotional depth. The End of An Era hell in cell almost brought me to tears, and his ability to brawl and structure a match were amazing."

People asking why KO didn't come down immediately and help Sami? Firstly, Sami waited and waited to help KO, even when KO was telling him for months what was going to happen. Secondly, KO is not a babyface, he's an anti-heel. Thirdly, they haven't re-established Sami and KO as friends yet. Sami chose the Bloodline over KO at Survivor Series. Just having KO blindly make the save makes no sense, he's just returning the favour for Sami.

I'm looking forward to Roman/Cody and the Usos/SamiKO at Wrestlemania, there's six weeks to build those matches.

I do not believe WWE will sell. Vince selling to the Saudi’s is far fetched imo.

I could actually see WWE merging/acquiring a mid-tier cable channel outright. This would enable WWE to own their means of distribution, sell ads on their content and be mentioned with other big content players that want tv shows and films.

Cable is not dying as fast as people think it will.
