You were the most optimistic person on these boards pre-launch. Maybe that’s why you are so critical now; it‘a shit when you put stock in something that turns out to be shit.
(Also, I meant to ask you; Top 3 Jacob Fatu matches I need to watch?)

Haha, it's a lot of other places. Not even I would engage with YouTube comments for sadomasochistic fun.
I was one of the more optimistic (maybe most, as you said). I do absolutely feel frustrated by them not living up to what I hoped, but I am honestly more bummed because I think it is actually going to leave things worse. And this is the sort of thing that Bryan Alvarez threatens to block people about. But Vince McMahon has less to fear than ever before, because not only is he far and away the most effective provider of "sports entertainment," but other billionaires are going to see Shad Khan's small returns and think "why bother?" No one is really going to comb through and realize that AEW niches itself by having an underdeveloped person floss and main eventers that teleport.
I'll be honest -- I haven't watched much MLW lately. I feel like I should to shed some light, because I am high on Jacob Fatu. But I've got this thing with products that I could potentially get more hooked on, because I'm worried they'll sour me and I'll have nothing left, haha.
Lately I've been watching some Contra Unit promos though. They're pretty good. Simon Gotch is a good talker, and Jacob Fatu is actually a pretty good promo. I really like the whole vibe he puts out. I was trying to find out how old he was the other day. He's got 6 kids and made his debut in 2012. I can't imagine he's much older than 30, max, but I'm not sure if that information is out there.
