Not sure if the other matches exist on tape, but if they do, I'll add them in above.

The other thing is that even while the "workrate style" has continued to blossom, there's a lot less stuff in matches now. I feel like so many matches would look better with very little changed except maybe mixing in more hiptosses, leapfrogs, and armdrags.

It's tough with this topic in particular, but we've learned that it's not good for the board when we veer too far away from wrestling. There's a lot I've wanted to say that I haven't for that reason. A friendly reminder to color inside the lines. Thank you.

I would agree that it's a good thing. The worst elements of society have always had a platform, even if the one they have now is easier, which was the point I was trying to make. Much like it was always possible to keep up with wrestling everywhere and watch it all whenever you wanted, but it's never been this easy.

This stuff always happened but took on a different form in the past. Wrestlers used to get stabbed and get their transportation destroyed fighting their way back to the dressing room or out of the building. Now they get trolled online.

There's always bad wrestling. I don't dispute that. But if we're comparing best to best, there are things missing. A great shootstyle company (which I realize would be much harder to pull off now). Traditional American, British, and lucha libre wrestling, all of which I think can co-exist with new and exciting things. I don't romanticize the territory days either. The best matches are great and the best promos outclass anything today, but there's a lot of crap. I think the baseline for bad stuff has been raised in some ways, but if the worst wrestling of the past was guys like George "The Animal" Steele doing big oaf gimmicks while doing nothing in the ring, the worst today is "yay-boo" forearm exchanges, spots on the ring apron, and pop-up reactions to big moves followed by delayed selling. The bad stuff was at least better separated from the good stuff in the past, I guess, as those current annoyances can even find their way into otherwise great matches.

I agree the technology is a huge factor for sure.

Probably another topic, but I view wrestling most importantly as a television medium, not a live medium, and that probably fuels a good amount of the disconnect on this issue (and others, for that matter). I should flesh that out at some point, but view obstruction that leads to me just watching the monitor in a crowded venue instead of at home has been my live experience more than it hasn't. I also don't think being part of something happening right now is particularly important. If you've never seen it and it happened 50 years ago, it's new because it's new to you.
