:pogba is the problem they paired him with Dolph or that they were in the low card
At that point of Dolph's career? Both, and I have been a fan of Dolph's for 15 years.

I'm a workrate guy but when I'm less into wrestling I like my stories too. Lately I've been sighty more into stories but it's cuz watched 5 years of straight bangers lol
Don’t get me wrong. If I’m watching the show already and two guys I don’t know well or two guys I do know well, but don’t have a story put on a banger. They can pull me in through the work and make me go. wow that was a good match. But it won’t be the same level of enjoyment if I went in already invested in the story and then they also put on a fucking banger.

I’m literally putting him over but let’s be clear a good chunk of the world says he sucks. At least in 2024.
I'll have you know OSW Review has shown people the light of divine revelation on Lex Luger's greatness.

It's symbiotic. A great match is enhanced by a great story and set up to draw interest. A great story ends well with a top tier match n no one wants to watch a stinker (mostly no one). Ppl will cheer a dumb spot if they like the ppl involved. Ppl might sleep through a great match if they are expecting stars. U need both n u need to know your audience

Hangman and Swerve is a feud with the best of both worlds

Like I’m never going to watch a show and complain about seeing a good match. But if I’m watching a weekly television show the thing I’m probably going to remember most and will talk about most is if I saw a really good story segment. The emotional payoffs and promos or fights, that take place or a twist to the story, like what happened with Jack Perry attacking Tony Khan.

But then that story means nothing if it doesn’t lead to a proper pay-per-view, where we see that story told in the ring. So I like both. Which is why I said earlier I probably prefer WWE television but I prefer AEW pay-per-view, and again it’s not a knock on AEW television or WWE pay-per-view but I do prefer having more storyline segments on the weekly TV but more matches on and a longer pay-per-view.

Of course you can enjoy n have them separately n be good. But u need both to stand the test of time. Omega Okada 4 is some ppls goat because the work AND the stakes/story. It was a culmination

Unfortunately, wrestling bios is doing the opposite and undoing that good work.

I mean, sometimes he’ll put a thing over that Luger does, but most of the time he shits on his matches.

Wrestling with Wregret is also pretty harsh on Luger. :pour
