April 2025 Wrestling Discussion
Technico Support replied to The Natural's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
My friend, they’re already pushing the narrative that Vince’s only crime was using company money to cover up a consensual relationship. Once it settles out of court, they’re free to tell any story they want to and bring him right back. -

All the PR “missteps” this week feel like something out of the current administration’s playbook — say and do awful things to 1) see how much you can get away with and 2) normalize horrible shit. This combined with HHH getting a pop by glazing Vince last night gives me the impression Vince will be back in the company in some form before the year is out. -

Honestly, because I’m a pedantic dick… “stadium” is bigger, like where a football or baseball team plays. Can be outdoors or indoors. “Arena” is smaller, like basketball or hockey, and indoors. -

Loooool of course I spend the week defending AEW’s JTTS booking style…and then broke ass Lance Archer dogwalks up and comer Kevin Knight, takes 90% of the match, and Knight wins with a finish out of nowhere. -

They should go smaller with it. Doom in the room. Brawl in the hall. -
It was a house show business back then. TV was just infomercials for house shows. Shit, SNME typically only had title matches after they’d been exhausted on houses first. Aside from the main events, I’d even say their early big cards (closed circuit and PPV) protected house show programs for the most part. Off the top of my head, SummerSlam 88 had a lot of undercard matches that didn’t reflect current programs.

Yeah, Punk’s intellectually-dishonest mental gymnastics to explain his lessened political messaging now that he works for Triple K and Pro Wrestling MAGA is low key giving Cena a run for his money. Dude went from showing up on AEW TV in women’s rights and “protect trans kids” shirts to saying shit like, “I do my charitible and political work privately!” -

Alvarez to Dave: "Let's talk about these ratings!" Me: sprinting across the house to grab my phone off the charger to just +10 the fuck out of it (Actually, I just switched to Apple Podcasts and I can now +10 from my watch, which rules) -

Loooool I’m the opposite in that I don’t mind Alvarez at all, and I find Dave and Garrett incredibly dry. Also, they don’t give timestamps. Finally, I can’t stand the FM radio DJ way Garrett pronounces “both” as “bowl-th.” -

You’re exactly right, and I’m aware enough to know it feels like a Bix take, making “PC” mountains out of boneheaded booking molehills, but god damn. Maybe using women as a payoff for a wrestler shouldn’t be angle fodder after Vince legit tried that IRL. -
Gah! You’re right. My bad.

It’s WWE. There’s always room for another blonde woman. You laid out the whole top of women’s division and the prospects, and no mention of Jade Cargill. That’s sad and hilarious.

What a fucking show! I need to rewatch Ospreay/Takeshita. I’d rather Hangman win the tournament and then the title, but Ospreay is at the same level of overness and it seems that’s where we’re going. The only bad part of the show for me was MJF/Hurt Syndicate. Their segments feel like the worst McMahon/Russo shit. “Ply the big strong black guys with women and gold” is pretty offensive. Everyone involved in this is a classless buffoon. Any word on what happened to Hook? -

PHM was amazing to angsty me at 16. Looking back, it’s uneven and Trent sounds whiny when he actually tries to sing. “Well you got me working so hard lateleeeeeeeeee” he just sounds like a nasal little weenie. Yet the 1 2 3 punch of Head Like a Hold, Terrible Lie, and Down In It (throw Sin in there, too!) are just unfuckwithable. Broken, OTOH, just goes hard as fuck start to finish, including the bonus tracks. -
She did have a bunch of matches while Toni was out and never showed any personality or charisma outside of “I’m mean!” EDIT: I replied before I read @RazorbladeKiss87’s reply saying essentially the same thing

And then regret it two weeks later and establish a new new world title.

Iron Man, but he has PTSD and spends 90% of the movie not as Iron Man, is awful despite the kid from Insidious doing his best. I fully agree that Thor 2 is better. Iron Man 3 and Eternals are the bottom of the Marvel films for me. -
Yeah, outside of the Toni angle, I have no idea what Mariah was supposed to be. “I am the woman from hell” is so edgelord (edgelass?) and r/iamverybadass. Lame.

It’s a tough call, but Cody (like fascism! Shouts to Sinclair Lewis) drapes himself in the flag, so I think he’d know who the good guy is supposed to be. Maybe Cena could cut a promo in Mandarin, just to be sure. -

I enjoyed harder Pumpkins stuff like Zero and Bullet with Butterfly Wings more than morose songs like Today and Disarm. Then again, I thought Broken was worlds better than Pretty Hate Machine, if we’re talking 90s alternative hot takes. -

Oh sure. But at the same time, aside from the McMahon family/Trump pic taken in the Oval Office, WWE was conspicuously politically agnostic for the first term despite Orange Julius Caesar being a WWE hall of famer. Contrast that with TKO’s behavior. On the other hand, you can definitely see far-right coding in Vince’s booking, and I’m not even talking about Apollo Crews being reborn as modern Saba Simba.
