  1. WCW was handed Bret with the best possible position to be a player the screw job could have been used for him to either come in as a top face or heel and help wcw break away from being solely nWo focused which it needed to start doing because well we all saw why. bring him in as a walking tall baby face who wanta to fix wrestling after what happened to him in Montreal or have him go even further into the anti us character and be another top heel, but wcw was far too full of egos to let either thing happen and it got them out of business
  2. Danielson coming back for a staggered entrance battle royal with a title shot on the line? I know the prefect joker to debut and win
  3. Make someone come out to some cocomelon tunes
  4. Hulk Hogan, the character, is tan. Terry Bollea, the person, uses sunscreen religiously and has never been tan, brother.
  5. I think 53 years old move was like a northern lights bomb/brainbuster thimg
  6. Danielson has said he had trained on how to work a match without using his arms, I think this was in his time between being active in WWE and going to AEW
  7. I think that book would likely, how do I put this,……..RULE THE MOTHERFUCKING THE WORLD!!!!!~
  8. If Danielson came back and joined the group that took his title after trying to murder him I’d probably be done with AEW.
  9. This post was a great example of what some of us are trying to say. I was coming to say something similar which is: compare the moment ms between the Pitbulls vs Raven/Stevie Richards dog collar match and the main event of last years Mania. One had a bunch of run ins that all made sense and paid off or advanced multiple storylines company wide. The other (as far as I can tell from reading about it I’ve never watched it) had a bunch of run ins by legends to pop the crowd but didn’t really lend a pro the story of the match or angle.
  10. Honestly I watch less and less wrestling every year and it’s because of the trend away from wrestling being a story to it being mindless action movie be in North America. AEw isn’t as bad as WWE was )and I’m assuming has gotten worse I haven’t watched it in a very long time at least 6-7 years now) It’s all moments it doesn’t matter what and that’s been being baked into fans for a long time. The dopamine hit of seeing something “historical” or shocking is all that matters now. I don’t hate AEW and they’re not as bad as WWE in booking this way but they fall into their own problems with being a classic or masterpiece. Most of their matches go 5-10 minutes too long and have so much overkill it can be exhausting but they’re fans want to see the “best” matches.
  11. If the word is out that someone is leaving the company there’s no real reason to put them on tv. The fans will know they’re leaving and some amount of them will just shrug when they put someone over on their way out. It’s part of the problem with everything being online you can’t really put someone over on your way out when everyone knows that you’re leaving plus the promotions will catch flak from fans for “burying them” and shit (often from the same fans who will post online about how they miss the old days)
  12. I know his body is breaking down but he’s my favorite wrestler of the past 15 years at least. Hopefully he can work as a freelancer around Japan and maybe on a more limited schedule to keep his body rested and in better condition. Buuuuut dude has shown little regard for his health so I wouldn’t be surprised if he works and insane schedule. Maybe he can find a Minoru Suzuki like formula to make matches work as he gets older
  13. Swerve should have won off of Pages Deadeye cause Swerve succeeding due to Hangman’s help would be interesting storytelling. Instead we get …… something
  14. Chaos should have been disbanded/merged as soon as Okada left at the latest. Really should have been done years ago they stopped feeling like a unit a long time ago
  15. Some one book a triple threat match of the three Justin Sane’s winner gets to keep the name the losers get admitted to a proper care facility to treat their mental illness
  16. One counts are fantastic and help build story into matches. They have been pushed out in favor of the “drama” or two counts and it’s silly. every time a boxer gets knocked down he doesn’t lay there til an 8 or 9 count (I don’t think so anyway I haven’t watched a boxing match since the 90s) why aren’t wrestlers getting out of pinning predicaments quicker anymore?
  17. You get to make Vince Russo finally see his dream of a wrestling show that has no ring action a reality. He’d pass out from the rush of blood to his pants
  18. That’s probable, I had a lot of professor who preferred APA, but I had to use MLA a lot as well and one professor (who was also my advisor) was strictly Chicago.
  19. Courier saved my ass on hitting a page number in college once. I have no idea why I wasn’t called out on it cause in New Times Roman I was only like halfway to the right amount
  20. Leapfrogs and dropkicks are strange metrics cause I have it in good authority that this is an upper body business
  21. Punk is one of my favorite wrestlers of the century but as a person he needs to better himself. He’s messy and full of contradictions, like most of us. But he also has an overly abrasive personality and has serious trust issues. the guy cut Hornswoggle out of his life for asking for a phone number that’s not normal
  22. I don’t think his punk rock kid act is performative at all he’s just one of the worst kinds of punks. First off he’s one who was still loudly straight edge into his adult hood which is never a good sign, he strikes me as one of the militant types who’d go to punk shows to start fights with people who smoked. He’s probably a “if you’re not now, you never were” type straight edgers who hate on Ian Mckaye cause he had a glass of wine in Italy. overall he’s a person who really needs therapy but is either too much of a narcissist to think he does or is so damaged that he is scared or unwilling to deal with his shit, or both
  23. Kenny and Will are new growth that grew above those two branches. They both took a lot from both branches added some more stuff. Also I’d rather watch any of Kenny’s NjPW epics over any of Angle, Shawn, Trips, or tamer did post 2001-2ish (or just ever in Kurt’s case)
  24. Angle is one piece of the puzzle that also includes Shawn Michaels, Triple H and The Undertaker (at least his Mania matches) they all feed into the forced epic formula that has come to be as well. WWE became too reliant on trying to force Steamboat/Savage mania matches onto ppvs (especially mania but eventually pretty much all of them) and those four drove it, guys like Cena and Edge were involved too
  25. O-Khan and a partner vs The Bucks for the IWGP tag titles will happen at Wrestle Dynasty
