Wrestling is bad. Its full of murderers and rapists. Even your childhood faves beat women. Some of them even used language that would later become known derisively as "gamer words" because video gamers love potty mouthed wrestlers.

Gumball Gumption posted:Ignore Stardom and American Joshi fans and you'll probably be safe. Stardom has a bunch of cool wrestlers but they have some aggressively weird poo poo going on in their backroom. Putting 14 year olds in bikini shoots is extremely hosed up. Paying Kris Wolf less than $200/wk when she was one the driving international Stardom World subs and running cameras for a ton of their side content is one of many grievances I have with the promotion. Gaijin Joshi fans tend to run the spectrum from intersectional feminists to registered sex offenders. The less lovely fans tend to be ignored because the bad ones will inevitably make an absolute mess of themselves. No one remembers the foreign fan that came to a show, followed all the rules. But the one hyper weirdo orthodox jew guy that censored all of his selfies with joshis will be talked about for the decade to come.

Like I said in the lovely idiots thread: there are no women wrestlers complaining that they're locked out of NJPW money. That said there are tons of matchups that NJPW could do that would be extremely on brand for them.

davidbix posted:I do think Allan was at least half-trolling, but I also find it amusing how many people completely ignored the actual tweet putting the pay/monetary concerns at the forefront. I agree the money for women just isn't there. It'd be cool if someone with Khan level money threw down on a women's only promotion but the other half of that is draws. Could a show headlined by Gail Kim or <insert your fave here> fill a 10000 seat arena? I think the core of the problem is there isn't graduated levels of exposure for women like there are for men. Its either working 5 minute spots on some show no one remembers, going to japan, doing customs or training at the PC. And even in WWE/TNA/ROH/AEW they're immediately sidelined and only given time to shine for YAY! DIVERSITY! moments. Another major change could be in the offing. If BUSHIROAD is really serious about getting into the joshi game, they have the money and the resources to put together big shows. I'd personally like to see them challenge the social mores within joshi. That is no more under 18 wrestlers. The idea of child fighting is more amusing than the reality of it. The other is the max age. I don't know if its a japan thing or joshi thing but the idea of retiring women early is silly and counterproductive. How do you build houses if you're always working with new faces? Anyway, that's my dumb thoughts about a nonsense twet.

davidbix posted:This is getting some of the most positive feedback I've ever gotten on something I've written, so that's nice? This is a great little 15 minute read with a lot of attribution so there's hours of jump off content. I think what he article misses is that WWE's charity work like all its other programs are designed to "win" in that space. They want to be the best at charity because that's what cool legit rich people do. And the McMahons are desperate for legitimacy.

davidbix posted:I don't think I really missed that, though? Unless you mean just going deeper into the "legitimacy" part. I guess it wasn't spelled out blatantly enough for me. That is a personal failing. The legitimacy quest is central of the McMahon family action. Vince particularly. If he ever talks about a failing, its usually to illustrate a learning experience but you can tell its through gritted teeth. Plus the dumb sneezing thing. Like what the gently caress.

warrior also had systemic heart/cardio problems on top of steroid abuse. if you go back and watch his YouTube stuff, you can watch him turn purple doing basic lift routines. or the Warrior/Orlando Jordan(noted pedophile btw) match in Portugal where he blew up walking to the ring.
