Just Dave

I mean, I’m not gonna stop watching AEW. I also think it’s telling that Phragile Philliam waited until Jack Perry threw his hair back. Having said that… I probably would’ve opted not to show the footage.

@harryarchiegus my GF also only watches wrestling with me, so she's only seen AEW and some AAA. She was like "why are they moving so slow?" I had to explain to her that WWE audiences have been trained for 50 years to believe that half speed grimacing and selling every move like a shotgun blast has been the norm, ant that athleticism has by and large been kicked aside for "storytelling."

When I was a student at Kennesaw State some years back, my whole house (5 guys) ordered that massive carnivore pizza from down the street. I'll remain shocked until the day I say that Adam finished his half of that.

I would love to never talk to that dude again.

They have gone from "this is why I don't watch this shitty company anymore" to being one of the only things I'll check out on youtube...

Same. For reasons I won’t get into.

It wasn't a person. It was you. The guy who took six months off and then showed up Wrestlemania weekend to take shots. Whoever's alter you are, I'd invite you to go fuck yourself. You come here and make these bizarre speeches hoping to rally the troops against me, for whatever reason. Then, when that doesn't work, because you, and only you, are a fucking idiot, you ratchet up the allegations to a level that no one takes seriously. I also don't recall saying you smell like anything. Only a fucking idiot would infer that. You are a bag of unwashed dicks, but that doesn't mean you smell like that. I imagine you actually smell like flat Mountain Dew Code Red, stale Funyuns, and the unmistakable stench of manufactured outrage and complete irrelevance. Fuck off, dork. Burlap. You forgot burlap, you fucking idiot. Also, Adam Cole sucks. Go cry about it. Burlap. You forgot burlap. Bu

Depends on the neighborhood.

WWE relying on shitty human beings to drive engagement? Perish the thought...

Has anyone specified which All Out the backstage footage is from?

I haven’t stopped hating him…

I… didn’t hate most of this. Again, I just don’t think I have much of an appetite for “sports entertainment.” Why did no one tell me how fucking good Logan Paul is at this? I probably actively enjoyed Iyo/Bayley the most. I don’t think Bayley has ever gotten the credit she deserves for being as good as she is. Happy for her. The Drew stuff popped me. Seth Rollins has to be on his way out. Completely bitchmade tonight. Holy shit is Cody over. That main event was a big stupid overbooked mess, but Cody is so earnest that it still kind of works. That finishing stretch was some shit I would’ve booked with action figures when I was ten, but I’m not sure that’s a bad thing. I’ll never watch wwe regularly again. They shit on guys I like way too many times. But I’ll be browsing the clips of raw on YouTube tomorrow. Also, and I mean this from the bottom of my curmudgeon heart; fuck cm punk. That narcissistic hypocrite grinned like the king of bootlickers while exchanging polite greetings with the “doofus son in law” and the king of the “nonsensical, glad handing, douche bag yes men.” Fuck that pretentious, grifting crybaby.

Baron Corbin on Jinder Mahal

Hey, I was minding my own business, and that burlap sack full of unwashed dicks came back after six months to talk shit.

I am the hardest on the things I love the most: the Atlanta raves, pro wrestling, batman movies. I’ve been that way since I was a kid.

There seem to be fewer midmatch camera cuts. The TD is missing fewer big moves & moments. I don’t watch regularly, but I watched last night & during the Dunn era and there were some stark differences. I’d be interested to see what you think…

I missed you, buddy. I figured you’d hate wwe as much as anyone, seeing as how they knew early on that adam Cole was never going to amount to anything on a show people were actually paying for. Idk why you would say I don’t like AEW. I love AEW. I just get upset sometimes with the glut of skinnyfat dorks with shitty hair and third rate cosplay ring gear throwing too many super kicks who have no idea how to sell. Whoever you think I’m talking about, you’re right.

I’ve talked about the shit I didn’t like, but in the interest of good faith discussion, I’ll say that someone should win an Emmy for that continuous shot of Sami Zayn backstage where he was running into his family and Gable & Owens. As someone who’s done camera work & production, that’s not easy and deserves kudos.

I think they’re gonna do something silly. Like the young bucks doing something in character, or having the whole screen blurred out or something. It would pop me, but I’m to the point where it’s AEW or nothing as far as regular wrestling consumption goes, so I’m probably not the target audience…

That’s probably fair. For whatever reason, I NEED everyone to know how bad this show was. Also, I did say from the top that wwe’s product has never been less “for me.” If I want a concert, I’ll watch a concert. If I want an action movie, I’ll watch an action movie. If I want to watch pretty people emote poorly, I’ll watch “Outer Banks” on Netflix. For months all I’ve heard about is how good the in ring product has gotten in wwe. I saw the same overproduced, overcommercialized nonsense as when Vince was in charge, only now brought to you by DudeWipes.

Right. The problem is us being “oppositional nerds” and not the show being dogshit. Gtfoh with that…

Ehh. Have her squash people on tv every couple weeks until she’s ready for longer matches. This idea that she HAS to be a great worker is nonsense, especially when you’re dripping with “it factor” the way she is. There’s a mile of difference between her and Maxxine Dupri, who I literally couldn’t pick out of a police lineup full of fitness models.

I agree with what you've said about her ability, but you don't hire Jade to have good matches. You hire her to be a star. The fact that Triple H couldn't get her in the ring on day 1 is a pretty blistering indictment of him, IMO. I think Tony's booking of her is one of his strongest examples of his prowess. She looks, talks, and acts like a star. Who gives a fuck if she can bump? She doesn't need to.

It makes me happy that y'all aren't shamelessly fellating this steaming pile of prison ass like they are other corners of the internet. I love you all. Fuck this company, and fuck the people running it who covered up human trafficking.
