Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted February 11, 2018 Awards Moderator Share Posted February 11, 2018 You have God-like powers. Or just God powers, actually. And you can use them to force wrestling to give up one part of itself. What do you get rid of? It can be anything at all - a wrestler, a booking style, a production tic, a move, audience behaviour, a show, promotion, wrestling style, creative direction, type of angle, move sequence... anything at all. (note: this is meant to be light hearted and fun though - obviously the right answer is âthe perverts and weirdosâ - that goes without saying). So what do you pick? Whoâs going to walk with Elias/Jesus in the desert for 40 days? I choose to make wrestling give up those hideous â2... sweeeeeet!â crowd calls after every two count in a match. I could just about stand the â10â stuff, because countouts arenât really that important, but this â2 sweetâ guff just ruins match atmosphere completely for me. It says something when it takes a match of the quality of Gargano-Almas to get these crowds to react normally to a near fall. Itâs awful so Iâm fucking it off. 40 days without that would be... it would be too sweet, as a matter of fact! Your turn! Best answers will receive a picture of a pancake shaped like Otis Dozovic.

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted February 11, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 11, 2018 I think you've nailed it.40 days without those fans is where it's at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members TheBurningRed Posted February 11, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 11, 2018 Youâve picked what I wouldâve gone for. At one point during that show, I said fuck off out loud because itâs just become too irritating now. So with that, Iâll pick the fans shouting âone fallâ. Itâs worse at UK shows. But it happens a lot on wwe now. Except Smackdown. Greg Hamilton doesnât give them a chance to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnB Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Kicks to the head. In the 80s and 90s it used to be the clothesline that was overused. Nowadays for me the superkick/enziguri is overused a lot by wrestlers in WWE and the indies and gets quite repetitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Two hours of RAW, I want to see how the WWE handle only having a single hour of Monday night TV to book for a few weeks. I'm not saying this is the way the show should be but it'll sure be an interesting experiment, things will have to be kept short and snappy and those overlong meaningless matches will be thrown out for a while.

Guest Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Give up that everyone is pals after a match. Need more acting like a loss matters and not stalling around waiting for the roh/ufc handshake and cuddle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon-Carr_92 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Ah, the days a Superkick actually ended matches. I miss Shawn Michaels wrestling. I'd get rid of heel authority figure characters. They've been done to death and a break from that would be refreshing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members marc2j Posted February 11, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 11, 2018 Dolph Ziggler is obviously one of my main answers. The weird thing where an interview just ends with say Renee Young and theres silence that needs to be filled before something else jumps on to the screen. The term 'championship opportunity'. Three man commentary booths. Percy Watson in general actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted February 11, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 11, 2018 The 3rd hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Nick Soapdish Posted February 11, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 11, 2018 The constant pans to the crowd/wrong camera angles where you miss the match due to them focusing on the non key stuff. Camera work in the WWE nowadays is shocking! Itâs as if Paul Greengrass is in charge of cameras and vision mixing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Kennedy Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Definitely the smark fans in attendance. Like the bellends who thought the best way to show support for Michelle McCool during the womenâs Rumble match was to chant her husbandâs name.

Callum1993 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Those âsuper fansâ that can somehow afford tickets in the front row for every show. The Clown, The Brock Lesnar Guy and that âSuperâ Bayley fan come to mind. Ban them and their annoying, over the top, fake reactions from ringside please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted February 11, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 11, 2018 Michael Cole. "For the win..." "Oh my!" and the same boring soundbytes every fucking show. Saying "its Boss time!" every single fucking time Sasha comes out is really doing my nut. I really despised his heel act on comms way back, but I'd have that back in a heartbeat over the bland, disinterested repetitive bore he's become.

LEGIT Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Too may near falls. Near falls used to be a good thing, now you know a match isn't going to end until 50 amazing/hard-hitting moves, both men hitting finishers, someone getting their face blown off with a bazooka and an ISIS bomb being dropped and disintegrating one of the wrestlers. It's all OTT. If a move looks devastating it should generally be sold as such and end a match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
