It's a WWE show. A few non-fans probably do know it as a catch-all term, but you're deep, deeper, drowning in the bubble if you think it has anything other than the barest mainstream recognition these days.

sek69 Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 The worst part about it is that Jericho didn't even need to be there, just send out 2.0 to be annoying until Eddie comes out to beat their asses. Jericho's bit seemed shoehorned in a way I don't ever think I recall seeing them do before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 MJF/Jericho/Ten Guy are literally the three wrestlers I can safely say I strongly dislike in the AEW roster. At least Midwell and Ten had Punk and WARDLOW to share the spotlight but man, that Jericho segment fucking made 2.0 look like GOOBERS.

It's you who are deep in the wrestling bubble if you think WrestleMania means anything other than "oh yeah the wrestling thing that happens every year, Hulk Hogan and Austin and Rock used to wrestle there." No one is going to check out WWE because they heard WrestleMania somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyin' Brian Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 Honestly hoping Jade wins. She’s green but I think there’s more potential in her as champ than Ruby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, AEW should probably do way more of it. This AEW fan thinks it's boring and pointless. I don't want to get into a deep argument with the owner of the board we all love, so I'll just say I'm not sure that's the reason why wrestling was at its hottest. Plus, what seemed "cool and edgy" 20 years ago has been done to death. I'm not a WWE stan by any means, but it takes me completely out of the show when they start shoehorning in "Wrestlemania" references and the like when they don't fit at all. It made sense for Punk's first promo back. Time to move on now... 6 minutes ago, MoS said: No one is going to check out WWE because they heard WrestleMania somewhere Probably not, but it's distracting as all hell (IMO). Of course, so is Jericho's faux Attitude Era throwback character, or whatever the hell that's supposed to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loss Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 Nerves seemed to be getting the best of Jade Cargill there. She looked pretty lost in a lot of spots. I still think she has a lot of raw potential, but she needs way more ring time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoS Posted January 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 I don't know how you think it was shoehorned when it is something essential to both Punk's character and MJF threatening to start a "bidding war" every week. That finish looked weird but Jade has really good wrestling instincts. She is very green but she has a lot of potential. I actually hope she isn't pushed too much as a power wrestler cuz while she looks tremendous, she doesn't seem to have a lot of functional power the way Kris Statlander or Bianca Belair have.

sek69 Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 That match was better than I expected tbh, and the right person went over. She's green but she's a star in the making so give her the Lex Luger Florida Push. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.S. Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 Just now, KawadaSmile said: right woman won Agreed. I thought that would be considered a hot take, but it shouldn't be IMO. They've been building up Jade for over a year, and Ruby was - as much as we love her, let's face it - a WWE jabroni. Much better and more compelling story to be told with Ruby falling short in both of her major AEW title matches and seeing how she can come back from that.
