I watched a tag match from early WCW 90s and it was Iizuka and somebody who I can't recall vs The Steiner Brothers. The match slapped.

The IC title is a completely meaningless title. It's like The Simpsons where it was good in the 90s/early 00s but is meaningless now and should have been retired at least fifteen years ago.

E defenders use it whenever something hilariously lovely happens on their program and act like WWE has a habit of course correcting, which it does not.

If FTR returned to WWE I would be pretty bummed. They're in their career prime, I'd hate to see their momentum killed by returning to the bad company.

Roman's run as champion started off okay, despite those Uso matches being praised as epic storytelling when they absolutely sucked. The Bryan, Owens and Edge matches were all pretty good. But since then, everyone he's wrestled has ended up in a much worse position and he's stuck in the endless mire of yet another Brock feud.

My take is that sometimes WWE puts on Women's wrestling that is good (Bianca/Sasha, Bianca/Becky II, every Asuka match) and sometimes they put on Women's wrestling that is bad (Bianca/Becky I, every Charlotte match). Likewise AEW sometimes puts on Women's wrestling that is good (Rosa/Britt I and II, every Serena Deeb match) and sometimes AEW puts on Women's wrestling that is bad (Jade/Ruby, Marina/Blue).

I haven't seen any live wrestling since January 2020 so I would be tempted to go to this if I knew it wasn't going to be complete and utter garbage like all WWE shows.

Hoss Corncave posted:Did they at least give a storyline reason for Theory losing his first name? I'd assume Vince was so angry at being beaten up by Stone Cold at WM that he didn't want any references to him and thus took away Theory's first name because it reminded him of it, but this is WWE so I'm guessing nothing actually happened. What does your gut tell you? You've put more thought into it with this post than WWE have.

MITB would be fine as a concept anywhere else than WWE where the writing is lazy. It worked for Edge because he was a slimy dirtbag. It worked for RVD because he announced his cash in weeks in advance and thus One Night Stand drew about 304,000 buys during a period the average was in the 250,000s for a b-ppv. It worked for Punk because people loved him and it was the first face cash in IIRC and it worked for Punk the second time because it kick started that slow burn heel turn from 2009. Everything after that has sucked. Jack Swagger, The Miz, Alberto Del Rio, Daniel Bryan and Dean Ambrose all won their first world titles by using sneaky cash ins which hurt them. Imagine Austin, Rock, Batista or Cena winning their first title like this. Ziggler's was good because people were primed for his face turn. Just lol if you don't maximize your payday and cash in at the WrestleMania main event.

Where else can Bray Wyatt go? He's above appearing in Impact because they likely wouldn't meet his price tag and his wrestling skill would prevent him from appearing in New Japan because he's not great and hasn't been since that big injury in 2012/2013. He's going to appear at Hell In A Cell isn't he.

El Gallinero Gros posted:Whereas with Cody, the only reason to show up is to put Seth over. Which didn't happen. And in fairness, I doubt who went over was his call, but it dies underline the stupidity of choosing to wrestle . We must have been watching completely different matches because I thought Seth was doing his absolute best to put Cody over and succeeded. If Cody or Kenny or whoever feel that they can wrestle while injured, then that is their choice. They know the risks and would have to accept the consequences if they became further injured.

I enjoyed super indy NXT because I had never seen a lot of those wrestlers before and they were putting on some amazing matches and the taped nature of the episodes allowed for decent pacing and plotting. Every Takeover until mid 2019 was absolutely must see.

Anyway, he's a talented wrestler who aught to do well in the bottomless pit of rainbow that is NXT. What happened in regards to the allegations that were made against him during Speaking Out? Likely nothing because WWE.

There was WrestleMania XXX which ruled. Then there was WrestleMania Brock vs Roman. Then I can't remember the next few until the one before the empty arena Mania. Which was lol the worst WrestleMania of all time in terms of wasted potential (Baron Corbin retires Kurt Angle). Covid Mania was actually pretty fun. Come to think of it,, I can barely remember any of the 20s WrestleManias either .

There's nothing that could make me watch a three hour wrestling show every week followed by another two hours on a Friday. Even if they were good. So I'm glad WWE is bad, I know I'm not missing anything.

Kross at least had an aura on NXT. But I can't tell if his matches were bad because of him, or because every NXT match was horribly produced once the show went on network TV. NXT from 2019-2021 was such an awful awful wrestling show.

I bought that. I honestly thought he was doing some kind of meta-John Cena act and it was all going to pay off with a spectacular heel turn. The solving racism promo, beating Anthony Ogogo, the gender reveal, the angelic imagery he used when feuding with Malakai Black, everything Brandi said or did. I was horrified to learn he was not doing any of these things ironically.
