Marina Shafir wins that easily. She’s on a different level of bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

69MeDon Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 This show was not great. That opening segment and folllowing match had minus heat. God damn. I skipped a lot of the Saraya stuff because it was so bad. But I will say, those of you waiting for Tony Khan to suddenly book a compelling women's divison might as well be waiting for Godot. I guess I can't complain that AEW TV shows are SUDDENLY ROH when ROH is all over every show, although I am mildly intrigued with Jericho holding that belt.

I watched it on YouTube to find out how bad it was. Lots of views is not necessarily a mark of quality content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snitsky's back acne Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 6 hours ago, HarmonicGenerator said: I also woke up this morning to a message from a friend who has had zero interest in any wrestling since 1999, and the message said “Luigi Primo is back!” How to hook in new viewers? Pizza, no matter how problematic the pizza guy is. I think the issue nowadays is that it's the stupid shit that gets traction on social media ('Michael Jackson' wrestling, Super Humman and previously Joey Ryan etc) and gets passed around by non fans as a way to laugh at wrestling. I'm not saying wrestling has ever done itself any favours in not being laughed at before but I have non fan friends who send me this stuff with a 'lol' as if to go 'You're a 40 year old man and you like this shit?'. It's embarrassing, and if its more embarrassing than being a 40 year old wrestling fan in the first place then you know it is REALLY embarrassing.

WyattSheepMask Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) Despite Tony Sniff’s supposed stop to requested releases, it would appear as though Andrade is on his way out the door and not giving a single shot about it Or he’s just pissing about and not actually going anywhere, you decide Edited September 30, 2022 by WyattSheepMask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with her talent and experience, and her unique look? If you watch her pre wwe stuff she is carny as fnck, wrestling in front of 50 people in community centers, remember this was long before the 'britwrest' revolution. I'll accept her look being a factor but lets not pretend she was any good. I'm pretty sure there are some shoot interviews kicking around where they more or less admit most of the new recruits were 'barbies' so they needed roughing up a little.

I’m saying that your assertion she got pushed due to a Channel 4 documentary is patently bollocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted September 30, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted September 30, 2022 Saraya's always been an awful promo and so I'd say she's right back on form, on the basis of this effort. Nobody will care about her within a month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's well aware of what he's doing. Which is taking care of himself. Stirring the pot and setting up a profile to profit from it is top notch. Unlike Erich Bischoff or Jim Cornette he ain't stuck doing horrible ad reads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
