Wrestlers work hard for your entertainment. More in-ring product than during the attitude era. Everybody is a top-tier athlete.

Lots of people work hard. The Kardashians work hard. Hitler worked hard. That doesn’t mean they’re entertaining. Which part of “they’re trying their best” is supposed to entice viewers to watch Raw?

This is the stupidest fucking argument I’ve ever heard.

And I’ve engaged in conversations with Droford, FFS.

More in-ring product doesn't automatically mean good TV.

For example, Baron Corbin is a featured act on RAW and he fucking sucks. More Baron Corbin matches means the show is objectively worse.

See also: Lashley.

I give 0 shits about more in-ring product if there’s no stories being told or the stories being told are shit. And I’m pretty sure I’m in the vast majority of potential viewers.

What’s this? You don’t find wrestlers wrestling to build momentum a compelling storyline? What about wrestlers trying to get on a roll? What about wrestlers trying to make a statement? No? Jesus, you’re tough. You should be more grateful that these wrestlers are working hard for your entertainment.

I’d accept just building momentum or wrestling simply because winning matches is important as a story. Even pre-2000s squash matches told a story. Doesn’t have to be too complex.

I have no idea why most matches in WWE nowadays happen. They drill the point home that the outcomes don’t mean anything. So fuck the in-ring product.
