THERE it is

#1-norm-fan 05-04-2022 02:43 PM

To be fair though, no stable with Dean Ambrose could ever amount to anything…

Yuta's ascension was ridiculously contrived and forced.

It's cute that Moxley gets to play a big fish in a small pond but everything he's done since walking away from a stable WWE job has been pretentious and over hyped. His brand of hardcore violence is third rate at best.

tickets secured for forbidden door baby woooooooooooooo

300 level again. i was in the "waiting room" 30 mins early and once the queue started there were STILL 2000+ people ahead of me. took another like 20 minutes of waiting to finally pick seats. sat 300 level at the UC for punk's return and it was fine. the atmosphere there is gonna be wild again, so i don't think it really matters.

TPWWDrave sign at the event, or it didn't happen.

a "what" and or "yeah" sign will also suffice.

Lock Jaw 05-07-2022 12:22 PM

"Who specifically did I throw under the bus?" *proceeds to throw everyone else in the room under the bus too, in an attempt to be loved*

Damian Rey 2.0 05-07-2022 04:58 PM

He flat out says he picked the wrong one abs made a mistake. What more does he need to say? And the fans were right, that segment was shit.

XL 05-07-2022 05:22 PM

That’s the issue; he didn’t need to say anything all.

Failing that he could have just said the bit about he picked the wrong one. That’s humility. It’s the “everybody else got it wrong too” bit that he whiffs on, there’s no need for it. In fact by pointing that out even if it is true he’s actively diminishing his responsibility for it. Therefore he gets no credit for trying - and ultimately failing - to be humble.

Mr. Nerfect 05-07-2022 05:45 PM

TK wanks dogs because he is a needy bitch.

I can agree with that. If he was adamant about making it clear he was given ideas, saying “I was told by a 30 year vet to do this, but it’s ultimately my decision and I decided that was the best option and I was wrong “ would’ve been a better way to word it.

Andrade was good for about half a minute in NXT with Zelina. Outside of that he has been less exciting than Del Rio.

Lock Jaw 05-07-2022 10:24 PM

He also had a brief shining moment in a feud with Rey Mysterio on RAW or Smackdown.... think they just dropped it without a PPV match and then tried to pick it up again months later by which time no one cared anymore...

That’s true. Those were good matches.

That is v. weird.

XL 05-08-2022 02:14 PM

I think Impact tend to sign quite short-term deals (Jonah seems to have been signed for ~6 months) so it might just be a stop-gap until AEW have something for her. The last thing they need to be doing is bringing in more talent to float around.

i am loving the short deals with impact bring wrestlers in new good fueds then go somewhere else before they get old. on aew i want to see if tony starts a womans show.

XL 05-08-2022 03:16 PM

Oh Jesus no. Just give them Rampage, the ratings can barely get worse.

#1-norm-fan 05-08-2022 04:31 PM

I love that idea but people would never allow the women getting a show at a lesser time slot.

That whole “women’s revolution” PR bullshit years ago has really fucked wrestling up more than it was before.

screech 05-08-2022 07:27 PM

This has probably been pointed out but is there a logistical reason from the network that Rampage can't air at 7pm every week?

screech 05-08-2022 07:39 PM

I like Rampage a lot, mainly because I'm all in on the hour-long format. I have no impact on the ratings though because I watch everything via DVR.

Someone suggested WWE do a women's show years ago on the network. I'd be into that and I'd be into an AEW women's show. An hour for them to actually get their stories over would help a ton (WWE or AEW).

Destor 05-08-2022 10:57 PM

if you segregated the content from either company by gender the viewership would be 1/10. there isnt an organic demand

#1-norm-fan 05-08-2022 11:18 PM

Which is all the more reason it shouldn’t be getting equal time period. But like I said, the “women’s revolution” has forced the need for a timeshare that is ultimately terrible for wrestling.

If it weren’t for the bad PR it would cause now, a women’s show in a lesser time slot would be fine. Hell, the cruiser weight division had (has?) its own show.

Lock Jaw 05-08-2022 11:27 PM

I'd watch a WWE all women show. For awhile.

Mr. Nerfect 05-09-2022 07:35 AM

It would depend on how it was booked. I’m not watching women’s matches that are there to prove they can do exactly what the men can do in terms of “workrate.”

Mr. Nerfect 05-09-2022 07:36 AM

The problem is I’m pretty sure most networks would want a female presence on their shows, so you’d need to have women on Raw and SmackDown anyway, which means they’d be getting exposed across them too.
