KingofSports Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 (edited) Stuff in wrestling that has you literally scrambling for the remote (current or historic). It's a wide field & can be for any reason, with or without justification. A few examples, with doubtless more to follow: (I) In terms of verbals, I give '2 warnings'. Third time, you're so fucking gone. Vicky Guerrero - "Excuse me!" Matt Riddle - "Bro" Steve Austin or any crowd repeating "What?" (II) The very sight of you is sufficient in itself. Baron Corbin - who the actual fuck are you?...in your cunting crown. Eddie Edwards - uuuuuuuugghh Don West - Daffy Duck bastard Danshoku Dino - No. I don't wanna see your arse, son.

simonworden Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 An odd one I admit but 20-30 minute main events, not big well promoted matches on TV but when it's things like thrown together tag matches. I can sit though snappier mid-card stuff but when I've got little investment in the story lines or it seems pretty obvious what's going to happen. I'll say to myself "right, that's it ill skim to the last minute of Raw and have look if I missed anything." but most of the time I haven't and saved around half an hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingofSports Posted July 19, 2020 Author Share Posted July 19, 2020 There's plenty of stuff I couldn't care less about, but I'm talking, get the hell off my screen this very second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Egg Shen Posted July 19, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted July 19, 2020 those huge multi-man pyramid/cooperation spots, just the worst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members JNLister Posted July 19, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted July 19, 2020 No so much "switch off", but the moment there's a ref bump in a New Japan main event I'm hitting the fast forward button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikey Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 i) Justin Credible's "It's not the coolest, it's not the best" catchphrase - fucking die, bag-carrier. Any Jeff Jarrett catchphrase (spelling out his name, slapnuts, etc) - just because I hate it, doesn't mean I want to tune in to see you beaten. Paul Heyman's "Brrrrrrrock" schtick - it was stale before Lesnar retired to try out for the Vikings. Â ii) WWE in general - it's like watching dreadful wrestling whilst having somebody whack you over the head with a drum beater. Mad Mikey Nichols - a disgrace to the name Mikey Guerillas of Destiny Jake Hager Jake Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every once in a while, I'll give it another try but it's less tolerable than the time before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRooster Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Shows that are packed with meaningless wrestling matches. AEW often does this, churning out admittedly good matches that mean nothing at all. It’s rare that I’ll actually switch off (although it has happened) but I’ll skip through them. Fyter Fest and Fight For the Fallen we’re both packed with matches that were of no consequence whatsoever. If I’m not invested in a wider story arch or a particular character, I’m not invested in the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
