MoS

fuck the fans, the match was good. As soon as Stat stops doing shit high-flying moves coached in the house style, and just use her incredible power and charisma and likeability to work, she will be a megastar

Okay, HOOK is a star. Dude just gets it

Just an absolutely stacked card, with the exception of the highly underwhelming world title match

The Bryan Danielson interview is absolutely fantastic.

I am actually seriously looking forward to your most-modern thesis that our view of internal narrative and psychology is all misplaced; we should call be solely concerned with "pop the crowd". I know when you articulate it, it will be an excellent point, and as someone who disagrees completely with the point, I really want to read it and learn whatever I can - before I say that is all crap, everyone should still maintain internal consistency

fwiw, I don't think Cena is a good actor per se, but he is extremely likeable, and his charisma in pro wrestling has definitely translated on to the big screen, so he really lifts every product he is involved in

Respectfully, Serena Deeb can, not just step on my neck anytime she wants, she can also finish me off in 2 minutes Just an incredible wrestler

It's genuinely, not a joke, just incredible how EVERY SINGLE women's segment is booked the exact same. Coach Tony K really needs to apply his mind more while booking this division cuz this is just weekly interchangeable crap

CM Punk is really a fantastic professional wrestler. I am so happy to see him back in his element, doing what he has always done best

Don't give a shit how fat Lee is, he is so charismatic, such an effortless superstar, Incredible Hulk come to life. He can be fucking 500 pounds for all I care, he has to be champ in the next year, there really is no one at his level

PENTA really is so fucking charismatic on his own. Genuinely, separate him from Fenix. They are both awesome in extremely different ways, they should not be saddled with each other really. Let them both go out and be themselves!

Also, I have to say, Sammy is really uncomfortable and unsure as to how to behave like a face lol. It just doesn't come to him naturally the way it does to someone like Darby lol

This triple threat on Rampage was certainly something, and very selfishly, I want @Matt D and the Segunda Caida boys to break it down. There were soo many highly co-operative spots but (a) they were actually over, which old-school wrestlers would argue is the only important thing; and (b) the wrestlers also tried hard to shine individually and make a big name......for themselves, not the match. But it made the match hotter and got the crowd going more! So like, what have we become here? What should we prioritise? What should be our goal: to have an internal consistency and in-match narrative, or just do whatever the fans want because let us face it, we are in the "consumer is always right!!" industry?? In thinking of all that, what, truly, is good psychology? I really can't answer this cuz my mind starts spinning just trying to grasp the essence of this point lol.

I first did not get this reference when I read it way back, BUT on this day, I see clearly, everything has come to light!

Sorry for the double post but I rewatched this and I have just been laughing so hard, wtf is this lol

LMAAAOOO some things never change

Austin is my all-time favourite wrestler, I have 15 shirts of him, I got him to wish my mom a happy birthday, but why do we think he is actually against some of the transphobic stuff we are seeing from Texas? Like, he once retweeted Ben Shapiro making a dumb joke about there being more than two genders. It is what it is. It would be hilarious if an actual wrestling battle made Hunter lose a fake wrestling honour and at the risk of me being a terrible person, I would laugh so hard at that.

Sorry, but Cora Jade does nothing for me in the ring, her gimmick is terrible, and I have no idea why she is supposed to be a future star. Then again, I feel that way about Adam Cole too so take my opinion with a full jug of pure salt

Also like, it's a mask. Just fucking wear it. No one is asking you to be in handcuffs! I won't even get into the anti-vax shit

Of course the French guy does not give a shit about the death of one of the most famous cricketers to ever live

Shane Warne imitating 80s pro wrestlers by dying of a heart attack at 52 years old

He probably also does some agenting and helps out the wrestlers.Now we have quite a few hosses on the roster and he probably does something in their matches

The only way we solve this is to have Mark Henry v. Shawn Michaels in 2022 with voting on who carried whom in the match. If Henry wins, Adam Cole gets kicked out of wrestling. If he loses, then Cole can be champ for 500 more days. Stakes are high enough, so we need a good impartial ref. I suggest Shane McMahon, who has previous refereeing experience

I ranted about Good Brothers and now about Matt Hardy cuz they would never leave my screen, they were directly relevant and had nothing to do with other people's perception of them. Unlike Mark Henry and Shawn Michaels. Do you not see that the issue is not about ranting, but about specifically ranting about other people's likes and dislikes? Like you literally just did the same again. No one cares if you rant, we all rant about wrestling. But like, rant about something actually relevant or funny. I mean, when you actually did that, when you ranted the way I did/do for Dork brothers and Matt Hardy, you created one of the greatest, most enduring threads in the history of PWO. Like, surely you should get this, right. And yes, he was the main event star of a brand that got its ass royally kicked by a startup promotion while he was on top. You're not helping your case. It was such a massacre that everyone involved in it got shitcanned, and literal kids are running around on that show now and the ratings are not even that lower than they were the tail end of Cole's run. By the standard of pops, yeah he sometimes looks like a main eventer. So did Road Dogg and Ice Train.

Why do you care so much about what other people think, to the point you feel the need to rant about it every time you share an opinion of your own? Also do you not see the irony of making use of that old jdw line of niche of a niche of a niche while defending *Adam Cole*, the guy who until 3 months ago, was barely a blip on the mainstream US wrestling scene?
