Yo, a new Brawl For All would slap. Ironically obviously, but ironic enjoyment is more than WWE usually manages.

Eat My Fuc posted:Who the gently caress besides Riddle can even fight in real life? Punk is going to come back to still lose in the first round to a guy who has never fought or trained to fight before maybe. Undertaker very excited for his chance to break out a shoot gogoplata.

Lid posted:the thing about Riddle is that in the UFC he loving sucked which kind of gets overlooked He wasn't great in MMA but a mediocre professional fighter is still going merk anyone else in the field. Anyway, I hope instead of Brawl For All they decide to do a Cruiserweight Classic but it's worked shoot, GCW Bloodsport style. Hideki Suzuki comes in, breaks some limbs, goes home after losing in the semi-final.

Today they came in and I asked how the show was - they sat silently at their chair for a few minutes and then said "I just can't watch it anymore, man" Hope you convinced them to sub to Wrestle Universe as a substitute

There's a lot of words I'd use to describe McMahon and I'm not sure self loathing would be one. There's an element of him that is embarrassed to be associated with something as southern as wrestling which is why he insists he does sports entertainment, but I think that's separate from self loathing. I can't imagine Vince being one for self-reflection and that seems necessary for self loathing

Vagabundo posted:Yeah, in the US maybe. Not where I live. You might be surprised to learn that most of the world isn't actually the USA. You might be surprised to learn that the WWE is an American company & makes most of its revenue from US TV deals so they are mostly concerned about American fame when it comes to their celebrities.

Red posted:I love Kidd, but he’s making a comeback to do, what, exactly? Job to Corbin and work B-Shows? To wrestle which apparently he really misses. He started wrestling at the age of 15, he clearly just misses it. Defiance Industries posted:That is what all short people will be forced to play. This erasure of Darren Sproles will not stand. Seth can gently caress off. I've no problems with a slow build, but the WWE don't get the benefit of the doubt because of *checks notes* 2 decades of dreck. forkboy84 fucked around with this message at 18:55 on Aug 9, 2020 |

Rarity posted:Another quote from Seth's appearance on the Gorilla Position I just watched Go Shiozaki vs Kenoh & it's been stuck in my brain for 24 hours & I keep thinking about it & that is a match that simultaneously had a week's build & a build that goes back to at least when Kenoh came to NOAH 5 or 6 years ago & it's probably my MOTY so far. All the tension is both in the match in a way that never happens in the WWE and in the wrestling backgrounds of the two men & how it shaped them & their characters, which are both simple to understand but also clear & well defined. And you know what? It worked! It worked extremely well. If WWE did storytelling like that, that was clear, subtle, easy to understand & effective, people might like it! But if you shovel them poo poo you can't just go "oh well, you see, it's long-form & you just don't have the patience for it to pay off, these younger kids today", gently caress off Seth, your core audience is born in the 1970s & are 20 years older than you are.

Eat My Fuc posted:If Roman went to NJPW i'd cry with joy. I know in my heart Okada Vs. Reigns is a 6 star match. I dunno if Roman is really a great fit for New Japan. TBH I think it'd go about as well as Cody did (& I'm not a big Cody fan). But at least he could wrestle bare-chested & not have to wear the silly body armour.

And honestly, if you looked at a random NJPW show I doubt there will be a huge difference, even a guy who feels young like SHO is in his 30s. The only non Young Lions under 30 on the recent tour would be DOUKI and Wato

https://twitter.com/WWENXT/status/1300588818056253440?s=20 Is this a thing that excites anyone? A 60 minute iron match that is also a 4-way? Be as well throwing a ladder in there for good measure.
