A Fancy Hat posted:I still can't get over Uncle Howdy looking almost exactly like the villain in The Black Phone and being named after a character in The Exorcist. Bray showing creative genius below your average haunted hay ride. And even if you enjoy that kind of poo poo, eventually there's gotta be a match, and that match will always be dogshit because Bray only cares about LORE. Despite being born into a wrestling family he just has no clue how or why wrestling stories are told. The Halloween bullshit only leads to more Halloween bullshit.

Wrestling fandom is a large niche, but it remains a niche because most of the people outside of it aren't even curious. If you were to survey 100 random people to name as many active wrestlers as they could, I'd be deeply surprised if more than like 15 named Roman Reigns. (And I'm estimating high - 15 is a lot for a wrestler who isn't in movies!)

Could anyone who watched both tell me if the Summerslam main event was a better or worse 30-minute match than Chase Owens vs. Toru Yano?

He was a part of some of the stupidest, most embarrassing moments in televised wrestling history over the space of the last decade. But somehow, after each disaster he was able to dust himself off and get a lot of people to care about him again. To believe that THIS time was the time he'd finally live up to the potential they saw in him, right before the football got yanked from them again. Even though it ALWAYS fell apart, he had that special quality that made people forget all about those other times. In this respect he understood the carny hustle better than anyone else, even more than someone like Cody. Thirty-six, man. gently caress. COVID sucks. He should have had decades left to give.

To them Ziggler style WWE was the only wrestling they knew until four years ago. But there were alternatives besides TNA. Specifically, literally anything other than wrestling, which is what I was enjoying for the great majority of this time period.

It's really stunning that you can look back through the history of professional wrestling, a business that started out as a carnival scam and got scummier from there, and still honestly conclude that Vince McMahon is the worst human being ever to be involved in it. He is FAR from the only contender for this title (a list that includes actual murderers), but he is absolutely one of them.

I'm very glad I both a) don't watch WWE, and b) still get to make fun of it here, on Something Awful Dot Com. It's been a very good week. (The Vince revelations are also good - not that the things described in them happened, but that it's been made public and a bunch of assholes are going to get caught).

The reason WWE matches (particularly women's matches) are 3 minutes long is to make room for the dinner theater that its fans are here to see. Anyone who's interested in wrestling centered around wrestling isn't going to give a poo poo about three-minute WWE style matches.
