Fresh Like Zafo posted:It's not enough to have some kind of shame when the widow calls you out for reporting false poo poo, you have to respond to her like an rear end in a top hat. The gently caress is wrong with these people? A large part of wrestling journalism, really any fandom journalism, is essentially fan non-fiction. (Except sometimes it's also fiction because they're not so good at the little things like 'research' or 'citing evidence' or 'gathering quotes.')

Serious wrestler Hyper Misao had a match the other day where she and her opponent, the littlest kaiju Shoko Nakajima, hit each other with Godzilla toys from gacha machines because wrestling Japan is serious, you see.

Seams posted:Mick Foley by himself had three different gimmicks that are better than the Undetaker, four if you count “Mick Foley” as a gimmick. The Mankind sit-down with JR is better character work than anything Taker did in any of his various iterations. Undertaker’s most famous promo is that cringe one about driving to the desert with Big Show. The more he said something other than ‘rest in peace’ the more people should have known he still really needed a manager.

The 'how can you run down Jax but not joshi!?' sure is ramping up. I've been watching a lot of TJPW and Stardom recently and some stuff is stiff like it is anywhere, and sometimes somebody makes a mistake especially in TJPW where they're all younger workers, but I don't recall anything like this and if it's out there, by all means let me know.

No less than D-Von and JR have added their voices to the 'wrestlers today aren't tough enough' chorus. Now I imagine JR going backstage at AEW and grimly musing on how nobody is coked up and fighting in bars. He kisses the small picture of Dr. Death he keeps around his neck and sheds a single tear.

RenegadeStyle1 posted:Yeah I never understood that argument. It has nothing to do with ability anyway but most wrestlers today look like they live in the gym and most wrestlers from the 80s look like the stereotypical dad that falls asleep in front of the TV in their la z boy. That said I do miss stuff like Earthquake giving us the gun show when he'd do a power move.

JUNGLE BOY posted:There’s a subsection of English speaking NJPW fans that are gatekeepers. The NJPW subreddit has some, but not really a majority. There was a recent thread with some praise for Harold because he was the only thing holding back the bad western influence and the wrong kind of US fans. The ingredients for that type of fan to exist are all there, it’s a much less accessible product and it presents itself differently from the “mainstream” product. That was certainly a roadblock into me getting into Japanese stuff, particularly joshi being a subset of the thing which can be even worse. "Lookit the maroon asking about WAVE when he hasn't sat outside the arena all night watching through opera glasses waiting for Yumi Ohka to come out like a REAL fan, amirite fellers?"

Vince MechMahon posted:To be fair, the comic market has just changed more than dropped through lack of interest. It's mostly turned to trade sales. Though the most vocal weirdos are for sure pirating if they're reading at all. Yeah. When they say comics are dying what they actually mean are direct market specialty stores and, you know, good, but a lot of the people complaining comics are dying stopped adding any money to the hobby ages ago so who cares.

It is funny that if you'd told a younger me that Raw would have longer matches but also he'd hate it, he would have thought you were a crazy visitor from the future.
