Blaise330 posted:Did Lucha Underground have any fireballs? Although I guess if this was LU, Alexa and Randy woulda had 2 matches by now Drago (offscreen) turned into his full dragon form and blew some fire once during a vignette. I can't remember any supernatural fire during a match -- there was normal fire of the lighter fluid plus table plus a match type LU didn't really have much supernatural stuff in-ring. The only things I can think of offhand are Katrina teleporting out of the ring once, and people disappearing after they lost a match to Matanza and were "sacrificed to the gods." Both of which were hilarious to watch live since they involved the lights being turned down low and someone just booking it out of the ring before the lights came back up. The LU crowd were famously good sports and would respond this like "WOW MAGIC" for the benefit of the taped show.

Rick posted:Lucha Underground had the best crowd in wrestling. Partially because at least some of them were extras, whatever Konan claims, but whatever they still got a lot of people to buy in. From going there to a lot of the shows, it wasn't extras. There were occasionally some local wrestling school guys as plants if there was going to be a "wrestler gets thrown into the crowd" spot or something, and sometimes you'd have some celebrities or family of the PAs or whatever, but not paid extras, at least not once you got past the first round of episodes as it got off the ground. The real driver was that they didn't charge anything for tickets and so you had a ton of local people who would go every week. There was a sense of community and also people wanted the promotion to do as well as possible so that it would keep going. LU had one hell of a packed roster for a show you could go to for free. The crowd would enthusiastically go along with basically anything because no one wanted to kill the golden goose of free wrestling shows. They also made sure the regulars in the crowd always got tickets even though it was theoretically a first-come first-serve kind of thing.

Astro7x posted:It's not like Alexa can float in the air and not have her feet touch the floor. She can conjure rocking horses out of thin air, cast fireballs, do a magical girl style instant costume change, and apparently manifest black goo inside Randy Orton's esophagus. I would not rule levitation out as a possibility.

Shard posted:So it was over creative. You know whats crazy. WWE isn't even consistent when it comes to pushing legends over everyone else. Like if they were Big Show wouldn't get pushed around. Hell even Austin had issues with being pushed to the side over younger talent - he even refers to himself as just a cog in the machine. One of the most successful wrestlers of all time who was on top during the most successful time period of wrestling in history. Same happened with Savage and Cena. https://twitter.com/guitarsandvinyl/status/1364618774704517127?s=20 In Big Show's twitter likes today

I think what he's saying is that some of the people who tested positive were there when this unmasked ring crew was doing stuff, but there's also some people who tested positive that weren't around that ring crew. So you can't definitively say that was the source of the outbreak. But yeah, he Meltzered it all up.

Royal Updog posted:I don't think the billionaire is going to start shaking things up on behalf of labour rights. Charitably, AEW does treat its independent contractors as independent contractors. Cynically, it benefits Khan if the WWE remains a lovely place to work. Also he'd probably get countersued for interference with business relations, contract tampering, unfair competition, etc. if he backed a wrestler's contract dispute against WWE and that's a big mess he doesn't need.

It's hard for me to picture the person out there who is like "I'm on the fence about buying Wrestlemania, oh wait, if HOGAN is going to be hosting, I'm in!" He's not going to take a bump or get in a surprise match or do anything interesting, he's just going to give the same Hogan speech he does every time they wheel him out there again. I can't imagine whatever marginal increase in buyrate you get from him is worth both what you have to pay him and the optics of bringing the old racist back, but then again I'm thinking rationally about this and that's not WWE.

That should be a loving crime.

Okay, what if they took everyone from catering and had them go and wrestle some matches after the show, just to get their reps in, and then like, posted it to Youtube. Have less production, maybe just a camera or two, low key announcing, no real storylines... So yeah, WWE Dark would be a thousand times better than their actual shows
