Red Shoes v. Bullet Club is an ongoing storyline that has never failed to entertain me.

Sting vs HHH was extremely overbooked

I don't know the actual answer but I bet part of it is that Davey is incredibly unlikeable in general

I assume that Yuna Manase was not meant to win the TJPW International title but they audibled to it when Natsumi Maki tore her knee to shreds.

WWE wants the prestige of having "good" writers but they don't listen to any of their ideas, routinely jerk them around at all hours day and night on Vince's maniacal whims, and let them go when they need a scapegoat for an angle not working that they had no input on. And if they luck into a fan of the product they just call them marks and humiliate them or make them big fat oiled up joke characters on screen or whatever.

Juice also entered the dojo system voluntarily so he's considered one of their own moreso than your average gaijin.

There was a period of time where Jarrett would take some unreal amount of punishment and then win with a single Stroke so all of those

Mayu Iwatani recently had something like that come up where she was saying something to the effect of "Even though Arisa had to retire, I know STARS (her faction) will be in good hands for a long time" and it got translated as if she was nearing the end of her career when really she's just a clumsy dork who was trying to put over the young talent in STARDOM.

Yeah that period seemed like they couldn't find something they liked the look of on TV or wasn't instantly recognizable. Winged Eagle obviously was.

Jay also has a great ability to get way over his own skis striking with someone like ZSJ does. Any time you put him with Ibushi or Tanahashi he really shows it off.

I reckon they are all extremely confused when they are never nominated for an emmy

Aesop Poprock posted:What is good wrestling to watch recently? I’m so out of the loop. AEW and NXT both seem to suck Depending on how you feel about joshi wrestling TJPW and Gatoh Move are both running shows that are super fun. Gatoh Move's is free on Youtube just about every day.

As I understand it, nobody has any idea who's wrestling who until they get to the venue and see it written on a big white board. And of course, nobody has any idea what the show's format is going to be until the drat thing goes live, because Vince McMahon is a crazy person. With that knowledge, how can anyone do anything other than keep showing up day after day, hoping to see their name on that stupid white board?

I made a joke in a different thread that how has me curious How often has WWE used a Wrestlemania match as the inexplicable middle of a feud instead of the start or end?

One of the things WWE 1995 had going for it is that Bret Hart was putting on ridiculously good matches basically every time out, despite how bad the rest of the company was. Every so often I'll see an old match and be reminded just how unbelievably great he was.

Jinder was extremely terrible. They strapped a rocket to him and had him beat a bunch of names in about a month after a lifetime of jobbing, and then never had him win anything clean. Then when they decided they didn't need him anymore, he lost the belt and went right back to extreme jobberhood, including losing to HHH in India and bowing to him after.
