Then why watch WWE if you hate it? This is the type of mentality that has began running rampant in the wrestling community as of late. People watch things they hate and then bitch about it and it makes no sense to me at all. I hate comedy, hardcore, and deathmatch and therefore don't watch. If you only watch WWE because it is job to do so on here, then I am sure either Reag, Jeffry, or even myself will be fine with doing the RAW rate thread as it is no problem and therefore you can just watch AEW and enjoy what you want to watch.
Well here is the thing.
Im a pretty positive guy lol, i try to find the good in allmost everything! Sure there are plenty of things i dont like about WWE but i dont hate everything! and as the recap guy i have to watch Raw and im okay with that. I signed up to recap Raw every week, im not quitting just because i dont like alot of aspects of the show, im not the quitting type. (did you forget my never ending saga to try and get Jeffry to agree about atleast 1 time WWE screwed up? LOL)
Im not like these other people like you said who just throw nothing but hate and also throw that hate onto others, yeah me and Jeffry dissagree on alot of things related to WWE and AEW but that doesnt mean i hate the guy, i like Jeffry! (And as you will see me confirm, in my response to him in this thread, i was just haiving a little fun ?)
I mean, Raw is actually the one show I literally can't do cuz work lol. But yeah, agreed with the rest of the post.
And no, Insane, this isn't me trying to dissuade you from watching WWE because we don't like you. I always have fun debating and discussing things with you, and I have no issue with you personally, just so that's clear. I'm more doing from the POV that if you don't like something, then why continue to do it? There is wrestling for everyone, dude, and there's plenty of us to discuss things outside of WWE with, man.
Speaking of which like i said, im not the quitting type lol, besides like i said i dont hate everything, and im positive.
For me, my frustation with WWE is i KNOW it can be so much better then it is, atleast to me. My arguements when talking about WWE is never just "It sucks" and i give no reason, i always have one and for me, i remember enjoying WWE every week, and i feel like its gotte worse, less inconsistent and all that. And countless Ex WWE employees have confirmed alot of what i suspected.
But yeah like i said before, i requested to Jacob that i recap Raw, i cant just back out or quit, that goes against who i am as a person, i dont quit, not my thing, even if i hated absolutely everything and i dont! you know that yourself there are plenty of things i enjoy about WWE. But there are alot of things i dont like and think they could improve upon.
Now that the serious stuff is out of the way. Time for more of the fun!
I know we've gone into this discussion before, but I just want to touch on this again for a sec. I feel entirely the opposite way. Let's look at food for a fair comparison. I don't like ambrosia. Also, I've never tried it. And even though minus the pecans I absolutely love every ingredient in it separately, I can safely say that I know that I don't like it. This can be based on the reviews/reactions of others who do eat it, seeing/smelling a preview of said dish, and combining my knowledge of the ingredients involved because, much like wrestling, I have enjoyed and studied food on almost a daily basis for as long as I have memories. Is it fine if other people like it? Yeah, sure. But if people are allowed to express their enjoyment of ambrosia, it should also mean that I have every right to express my dislike for it, and I will definitely fight to express my opinion harder with someone who says it's the best food ever rather than just someone who eats it at Thanksgiving and says "yeah, it wasn't bad."
At least we're in the same boat about not watching or having interest in Game of Thrones, though xD
But again, sure, you have an idea of what that foods gonna taste like, but your never gonna know with absolute certainty what it tastes like, until you actually try it, same with video games movies TV and music. Sure you may see a game and have a pretty good idea what its gonna be like and think you wont like it, but maybe chances are you play it and boom, its different then you thought, maybe better, maybe worse, but still you cant know for certain.
Nobody will take you seriously if you rate something but then say "Oh, i havent seen it but im pretty sure i hate it so yeah!" That just doesnt work as a good enough reason, sure, would you likely hate it? yeah, but you havent seen it, up until you watched Dynamite, it could have been way better then you thought, but it sadly wasnt, but you would have been none the wiser unless you had watched it.
The entire point of a review, is for you to had seen or experienced the product in question before sharing your thoughts, thats always how they worked, its never been a rate the season even if you havent watched it type deal.
Please, feel free to explain then. Because if that's the case, then that's a failure on the production end because how can you draw in casual viewers tuning in for the first time if the most basic of stories is not only not made clear, but is made out to be the complete opposite of what is happening? If anything, Page should be frustrated with Kenny for costing them the match, and in the bigger picture, holding him back. Instead, Kenny is the one who shoved him. Not that any of this mattered, because within a minute they went right back to getting along perfectly fine when whatshisname got kidnapped. Speaking of which, Kenny must be a terrible friend anyway, because within less than an hour, he had completely just given up on searching for his supposed best friend, who got kidnapped, in order to help SCU in their beatdown. So did he find him, and Pac was just all like "ok you got me mate, you can have him back"? Or did Kenny just get to the back and find his friend gone and just say "well fuck it, he's gone. Pac has superpowers and can clearly walk through walls and fly while carrying a 150 pound man"?
Well Adam page left the elite and has struck out on his own and while they did get a win there has been tension between the two with miss ques and page hitting his finsiher on kenny.there are other detaisl but i forgot lol.
Its important to keep in mind, this company has only had 9 epsidoes of TV and a handfull of PPVs, they just started, there is alot they have to learn and are learning, its gonna be awhile before they learn everything.
Nobody else on this planet can say that they were basically handed the entire world on a platter and then failed to deliver so badly that their reign will go down as one of the worst ever and is better off forgotten, either. What's your point? Even if he is one of the all time greats, it doesn't mean he's great now. Flair is arguably the greatest of all time in a lot of people's opinions, it doesn't mean his TNA run produced any good matches. People get old. It happens. And it's fine to bring back guys like this for occasional nostalgia pops and dream matches, imo. It's not fine to sacrifice younger and more able talent in order to make them your biggest star and feature them on your show every week, however.
Do i even need to bring up the amount of times WWE has done that? lol And dude, like it or not Jericho is a star, hes a legend in the business and he is a HUGE draw for AEW, AEW was smart in putting the belt on Jericho because hes a legend, makes the belt more prestigess by having a name like that as part of the belts history, Jericho has done a great job at getting talent over, and thats his job, by being the top star he can and has made talent that more then likely this audience doesnt know much about and turn them into big time stars, thats the goal, and they are doing it well.
Why do the whole 5 more minutes thing then? I mean, aren't you the one who had that huge issue with there not being a winner in the gauntlet on Monday (even though Andrade was later announced as the winner)? Why is this ok to you then?
This is WAY different then that, a draw is a tie, thats a finish, and its something AEW has established in other matches aswell, plus it works with the story they were telling, Draws used to be a big thing back in the day but it faded away, and the thing is, is it worked. Wanna put both guys over but dont want either one to lose? easy, make it a draw.
If by promo ability you mean relying on his past, bashing the WWE, and memes, then sure. And no, definitely not in his prime in the ring. Dude needs to lay off the Waffle House. Not only does he lose his ugly belt, he gets fat and slow xD
Okay you have to be joking about the belt, The AEW World Title is freaken beautiful, say what you will about everything else, but come on man, that world title is pretty, it remidns me a little bit of new japans IWGP heavyweight title which is also a beautiful belt.
I wouldn't say Kris is a star. Not yet, at least. As far as star power, the only name they really have is Awesome Kong, who not only has appeal from her crazy good run in TNA, but has crossover appeal from GLOW fans. Kris definitely is one of the few in AEW who has the potential to be a household name, though, and is by far probably the most talented woman they have.
Absolutely! and admittedly they do have a few others, Shanna has been really good and Hikaru Shida is my favorite woman on the roster.
Well that's no fun, I can't argue if you don't argue back xD. Hey, keep me updated though in the coming weeks as to whether or not they actually add the super-hard-to-miss bright-ass red lock of hair to their trophy collection thing, though. I'm curious how dedicated they are to continuity with this shitty gimmick
Well if you want the answer to that, you better read the recaps
Meh. I disagree on that. Yeah, the WWE tag belts aren't the greatest, but they really don't look awful from a slight distance, and haven't looked bad ever since they switched from that ugly fucking copper color. They're very shiny and bright and contrast nicely with the red/blue straps. AEW tag titles, on the other hand... it looks like someone found the worst cardboard backyard titles they could find, and used them as blueprints for what they wanted when they had the guy make the belts.
, All i can say is its better then WWE having the same damn design for nearly every belt they have, we can atleast agree thats dumb..right? that all the top titles are literately the same belt just a different color?
