Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted March 23 Paid Members Share Posted March 23 31 minutes ago, Snitsky's back acne said: No. It was flippant comment about one specific scenario, not all of wrestling. Even if it was about all of wrestling, surely micro analysing everything as opposed to just watching it, enjoying at and not overthinking it is the more shallow and boring of those two scenarios? Maybe I've been watching it all wrong these past 30 years plus, I dunno.  Nobody was micro-analysing anything. @LaGoosh asked a simple question, he wasn't asking for a thesis or anything. Nobody's advocating a deep-dive on all aspects of wrestling either. It's a wrestling messageboard, we're here to discuss and analyse wrestling. Or most of us are.

Its why the 'so you're saying we can't analyse ANYTHING, then!?' response to my comment seemed so bizarre. Who was saying you couldn't? It was one comment made on a discussion forum. Be narked at the flippancy of it if you want but trying to make it something more than it was is just odd to me. Anyway....  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder whether they could persuade Nigel McGuinness over. What's Timothy Thatcher doing at the moment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Supremo Posted March 28 Paid Members Share Posted March 28 Couldn’t find that thread about bad takes, so I’ll put this here. Turns out wobbling your head back and forth can give CTE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Carbomb Posted March 28 Paid Members Share Posted March 28 I'd tell him to give his head a wobble, but it'd just be playing into his hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members mim731 Posted March 28 Paid Members Share Posted March 28 So we're saying D'Lo failed to recognise Cody's talents? Perhaps someone should tell him he's looking at the real deal now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members air_raid Posted March 28 Paid Members Share Posted March 28 Guy from bygone era in "doesnt understand what today's fans like about current wrestler" shock. Bruno used to have plenty of criticisms for Hogan, for Flair, for Steve Austin for Christ's sake. It's no wonder D'Lo doesn't see top tier in a bloke that's won two Rumbles and main evented two Manias when it's unfathomable that his high profile matches with Mideon and Bull Buchanan didn't get him a top spot.

SwayWays Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Naturally he's going to go against the grain on the character currently in the biggest story in wrestling currently, just to gain some interest. But we won't accept any anti cody statement this close to mania. He's winning that belt or we'll riot... Well not riot, but we'll stop watching.. Well not completely... Anyway shut up dlo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I mean, it doesn't look great but its a fairly self explanatory sequence, they both think their opponent is there for the springboard attack and had the same idea. He went for his cutter and Carmelo wasn't there for it. It was probably a better idea on paper than in execution. But people not taking risks and trying new things is how you get that awful WWE house show style from the mid-2000's that slowly made its way to TV and stunk up all of wrestling and we equally moan about. Think about all the shitty, unkind takes from 'AEW BOTCH' accounts when good wrestlers do things that don't come across perfectly on TV. 99% of the time that's because the guys had an idea and were trusted to execute. Is what it is. Keep trying new things I say. Edited 23 minutes ago by d-d-d-dAz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted 21 minutes ago Paid Members Share Posted 21 minutes ago I think it’s supposed to be like something you’d do in a 2k game. Cody also landing on the side he tore his pec on there, looked rough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
