Hulk Hogan is the most over rated wrestler of all time. Even my grandma can do a leg drop and wave her finger at people....not sure she could slam Andre The Giant but since he's dead it's a moot point...

King and JR are NOT the greatest commentary team ever in wrestling

That honor goes to Joey Styles and Cyrus. And no I'm not kidding.

Wrestling fans who think moves make a wrestler good or great, don't know any about this business.

To add on to this, I know Cole gets a lot of shit (and rightfully so) but I lowkey think Michael Cole and Tazz were one of my favourite commentary teams of all-time. Usually I can't stand Cole, but I thought he was a lot more bearable back in the day. I always enjoyed the way they bounced off each other.

Hell in a Cell matches without blood are not hell at all. Extreme Rules without blood being spilled is not extreme at all

This is probably not that unpopular. Especially Extreme Rules. I see a lot of people saying that PPV isn't really 'extreme' enough. They obviously can't go that far because of the PG rating. One of my favourite PPV's of the modern era was the time Extreme Rules actually lived up to the name in 2012. Brock came back and basically just treated his Cena match like it was UFC with stiff shots

WWF tag team wrestling wasn't all THAT bad in 1995. Pro Wrestling Illustrated criticized the WWF during that period for its weak tag teams but there were good teams like the Headshrinkers, Smokin' Gunns, The Heavenly Bodies, and Well Dunn. Heavenly Bodies were job guys to Tekno Team 2000. Well Dunn were losing to The Bushwhackers even though they were athletic, solid workers.

WWF were pushing makeshift teams Tatanka & Bam Bam Bigelow, Bob Holly & 1-2-3 Kid, and Owen Hart & Yokozuna. Heavenly Bodies and Well Dunn should've gotten pushed instead. Bodies feuded with The Smokin' Gunns in 1994. WWF should've rekindled their rivalry in 1995, considering the Gunns were the champs.

I don't get the meme love for Hook, lol.

To me, MJF's promos aren't that great, he relies on cheap heat and some of the 'shocking' things he's said just make him sound like a teenager trying to be edgy.

I want Roman vs Seth to main event Wrestlemania.

Can confirm these got me :souness~1: Nice job.

I'm guessing you didn't care for Hook's debut much then as it has morphed in to real love. I'd agree it was quite meme love before he debuted (I had no idea what to expect, just knew of him) but I was surprised by how good he was, and I loved the swagger about him.

I thought of more, lol.

I don't want Bray Wyatt in AEW.

I hope that when Mox comes back, he gets used better. AEW didn't use him that well in 2021, after the Kenny feud ended, he was floating around and only had one proper storyline with Eddie when they had the tag title match. In the second half of the year, he wasn't doing much. I hope for a better 2022 for my boy.

I find Tony Khan really annoying, especially on Twitter.

I agree on Tony Khan and Fattie the Clown.

The more TK talks, the more I don't like him.
