It actually seems like quite a progressive idea. I’ve no idea, do other live forms of entertainment use it? I don’t know if it’s commonplace, but they do it in the stadium at Alabama college football games - the stadium announcer is closed captioned, as are all the videos shown on the screens. There are dedicated CC screens for it, which I’m pretty sure is what is going on in that photo. Edited September 25, 2018 by Statto Correction.

Paid Members WeeAl Posted September 25, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 25, 2018 I thought that was a good Raw on the whole. I skipped all the parts that I expected to be bad, which seem to be what most of the talk has been about after the show (The Bella's match, the charity carry on with well known babyface Stephanie McMahon. . .) However the main stuff of what I didn't fast forward, was good. A show long storyline that resulted in intrigue being added to the six man in Australia gets a big plus from me for adding a bit of drama and soap opera and uncertainty to what might happen. It's much better than if one of Drew/Ambrose just turns out of the blue. That McIntyre/Ziggler tag match with The Revival was way better than I expected it to be. I was thinking it'd be an extended squash but what a lovely match it turned out to be! Those double team moves were like music to the soul. Great stuff.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 The original kick was bad enough but then stiffing Ruby adds to the awfulness that is Brie Bella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Factotum Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I'm....liking Ziggler. This has been his best run in god knows how long (ever?) I can only assume this is purely down to McIntyre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love-Wilcox Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) As if the Brie botch wasn’t bad enough by itself now we have legions of neckbeards on Twitter rushing to defend her. Its wrestling and accidents happen, I get it but it was hardly a fucking moonsault to the outside or a piledrive or some mad table spot... just basic kicks to the chest, bloody rookie stuff and she goes and knocks somebody out! Jesus Christ. Edited September 26, 2018 by Love-Wilcox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dopper Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 In addition to those pesky *sigh* neckbeards, pretty much every professional wrestler past or present who has commented about it on Twitter have defended her too. But what do they know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members air_raid Posted September 26, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 26, 2018 In case anyone hasn't seen already, it's been confirmed on WWE.com "Liv Morgan has a concussion and is going through the proper protocol under WWE’s comprehensive wellness program." Yes, it's a dangerous sport. Yes, accidents happen. Yes, something innocuous like taking a hiptoss can leave you paralyzed if something goes wrong. But this isn't a co-operative move gone wrong, it's one athlete aiming strikes at another, on her knees and defenseless by the nature of the spot and having to trust her opponent to kick her in the chest, not the head. Unfortunately her opponent is either reckless or useless depending on how kind you are. 10 hours ago, dopper said: In addition to those pesky *sigh* neckbeards, pretty much every professional wrestler past or present who has commented about it on Twitter have defended her too.

Paid Members Fatty Facesitter Posted September 26, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 26, 2018 I can totally understand wrestlers closing ranks and protecting their own - we'd all do the same for one of our own, especially someone who is seems relatively well liked backstage. We'd do the same for our co-workers in a similar situation. People fuck up, it happens. I think the biggest issue here and where the majority of fans are coming from is that it isn't just one fuck up, it's multiple fuck ups from the same person. It's multiple fuck ups across several weeks, and it's multiple fuckups in the same match to boot. Where do you draw the line? No one actively wants to see her fail, but for all the concern and defending people are doing for Brie, there's precious few who are wishing Liv well publicly in her recovery, just chalking it up as 'part of the business' and how it isn't ballet. She should absolutely be held accountable for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The King Of Swing Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 DA MELTZ! awkwardly repeating "she's ok" in between mentions of a concussion and even possible memory loss, is some of the most awkward crap I've ever heard. I'm sure everyone would jump to Alicia Fox's defense if she caved one of the Bella's faces in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
