One of the weirdest things about modern WWE is that every match follows the same structure down to the dive to commercial spots and timing of the rest holds etc

It's wild that they not only took away the ability of wrestlers to write their own promos and get good at delivering their own material but they took away their ability to express themselves in the ring and they now have to follow the same cookie cutter pre-rehearsed on the night template for every match they have. I feel like if Vince could replace the entire roster with wrestle robots that all follow the same exact program every night he would.

It's soul-less, void of fun and how can you be excited when you see the same match between the same people nearly spot for spot for weeks at a time?

cues that Shinsuke Nakamura tweet of "I just wanna feel alive"

It's more an indictment against lovely writing and inauthenticity than anything else. AEW has had promos ranging from ok to spectacular and I can't recall them ever getting What'd once because the crowd is way too busy being into the fuckin promo and wanting to hear more

'What' doesn't mean 'gently caress you' it means 'this is boring as hell'

I think I recall it happening to someone during one of the earlier dynamite shows but I haven't heard it since. which is refreshing!
