Did anything happen on Raw last night

they apparently broke up one of the only entertaining acts in the company and one of the only like, 4 womens' tag teams in the company with zero build, while they're also on the way to breaking up one of the only other entertaining acts & womens' tag teams, with admittedly quite a bit of build (most of it i suspect accidental)

Comparing Sean Waltman to loving Dolph Ziggler is one of the meanest things I've ever read.

nic nemeth and sean waltman are both very talented wrestlers who, as characters, long outstayed their welcome. i don't think that's an unfair comparison at all. the main difference is syxx/x-pac was never pushed as anything beyond a lower card guy who could occasionally hang with midcarders, while dolph got main event level over and nabbed a couple of, in hindsight now viewed as flukey, WHC runs before getting stop-started into oblivion and becoming the "has a boring feud that goes on way too long with every new guy" guy.

also he revealed himself to be an unlikable dickweed on social media (which i guarantee waltman would've done in the 90s if given the opportunity)

That wasn't a turn, Punk was already a heel when he did that promo, I think he was just staying in character while also saying what he really felt. But a charismatic guy speaking his mind and airing his grievances with a terrible company is, 99 times out of 100, going to make someone a babyface.

comedy doesn't draw, says man who put corpse loving skit on television because he thinks it's the funniest thing in the world

edit: actually that probably explains it. vince thinks comedy doesn't draw because the poo poo HE thinks is funny literally nobody else in the world does, so when he tries to put his idea of comedy on tv it bombs and nobody likes it. thus, comedy doesn't draw.

Like, dude, you're one of the best wrestlers in the world. You've put in the work to succeed. Any success not coming your way is success denied, not undeserved.

unrelated to trevmann insisting that no, he really REALLY enjoys the taste of boot polish, nothing will ever make me roll my eyes as quickly or as aggressively as wrestlers constantly shooting down fans who say the word "deserve." like nobody loving means it the way you're interpreting it you loving idiots holy poo poo, just accept the compliment that people like your goddamn wrestling and hope you succeed. gently caress's sake.

Why are all WWE themes horrible now that they got rid of CFO$?

This just showed up on my YouTube Feed
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SU5jvRmjOvQ

Everything sounds like an action movie score. It takes 15 seconds to get into the song. And then goes into 4 different musical phrases before repeating. What is the hook of the song? What is the recognizable part that you hear and instantly know who it is that is coming out? Why are these themes so horrible? You're 45 second in and you've heard 5 different melodies

kushida's NJPW theme was like super middle tier for me in that company but holy poo poo i'll take a WCW-rear end knockoff of the BTTF theme any day over this trite

so i stopped watching wrestling as a kid near the end of the invasion. it was probably a smart move, looking back. i eventually got back into it in high school at the start of 2007, and from that point until about 2015 i'd dip in and out for a year or two at a time. watch for 2 years, stop watching for a year and a half, watch for another year, stop watching for a year after that, etc. 2015 is when i finally had enough and decided "this show isn't getting better, and i can't keep watching this trash." seth's awful title run and the authority in charge yet again broke me. but i still kept up with the company. i needed to know what the biggest wrestling company on the planet was doing, because i still cared about wrestling. i needed to know how the wrestlers were doing. i would get happy for the ones i liked if they were getting pushes, and bemoan the underutilization of others (mostly the latter tbh). i followed what was going on through twitter and youtube videos and written recaps and podcasts for the next 5 years, even after i found a new love when i got into new japan in 2018. i still felt the need to keep up with wwe.

there are pay per views and episodes of raw that i've been more upset about than this one. multiple of them, really. but like. hearing people talking about this episode as they were watching it and trying to keep track of what was happening.... my brain is melting. i can't deal. i think i've hit the point where i need to just stop looking at wwe entirely. it's so bad. it's so unbelievably terrible.

why the gently caress do the anarchist rebels who want to do nothing but cause chaos think being signed to world wrestling entertainment contracts will enable them to commit more destruction and mayhem. how is WORKING for vince mcmahon going to give you MORE leverage against vince mcmahon.

gently caress this company.
