  1. My main problem with the WWE is that is seems way too rigid and scripted, so I'd like to see more emotion in the promos, etc.  Less usage of forced buzzwords and nicknames and catch phrases.  I get that this sort of thing is part of wrestling but not to the degree Vince has the made the WWE into.  I need to feel like this is some sort of competition and not just a bunch of actors.

    I think they should just encourage everyone to just go out and try to have the best match on the card, every show maybe.  Workrate won't sell nearly as many tickets as stories and characters but it certainly helps.

    I think it was much easier to differentiate a product from the WWE around 10 years ago but now it seems a little hard.  The WWE routinely puts out decent matches across all their major shows.  They also have the women's division more pronounced than ever.  I'm not sure there is too much they can do to completely differentiate themselves.  What is the opposite of WWE exactly?  Maybe they need Russo.

  2. I'm very excited about AEW starting but investing $100 million+ into a wrestling promotion in 2019 is not something I would do.  Wrestling, as a whole, has no momentum but I do wonder if AEW can fill the national void that TNA left open from 10 years ago. 

    Two things I hope they consider would be creating the World "On a Pole" Championship, and signing the real and true biggest free agent in the game, and that's Haku.  If they accomplish those two things, they have a fan for life in me.

    What was up with Demolition Ax in New Japan in 1991? There's a random Ax/Keiji Muto match on New Japan World from February 1991.

    Because of your post, I watched it and it's pretty boring and shitty.  Ax was just going through the motions but he was doing that towards the last half of 90 anyways.  I just imagined what it must've been like as a Japanese fan who knew nothing of Demolition to see this average looking man dressed in paint and bdsm gear trying to be a tough wrestler.  He wasn't doing any of the mannerisms of Ax either.  Sad, really.
