Never found a sport I didn’t like or a hairline that liked me.
Oh that’s at best misguided. Although at least Mean Street Posse 2025 haven’t workshopped camera left and right yet so are swiping the correct way for the audience at the end of the promo.

Please no NJPW for Gallows. Anderson coming back could be a shot as a founding member of BC with all the division of House of Torture etc. With Gallows it’s dick jokes and no momentum and placeholder tag title run.

I do not like Dune

Fair play. It’s strange I got really turned off Netflix by the constant thanking. Reminded me of Riyadh Season in boxing but it seems to have calmed down. Awesome you got hooked though!

Haha it’s not turn it off heat then but maybe I’ve got this entirely wrong which I’m happy to admit. If new viewers are reticent because he’s there it’s not a net positive for viewership.

Yeah it’s far too much. I think everyone in AEW is too willing to bleed so it loses it’s shock value in big matches. You’re just waiting for it. I worry for Yuta. I really like him but he’s always the bottom ring of stables.

I like the Ospreay/Fletcher dynamic not sure how much Omega adds unless it leads to match 3. I dunno if they’d made a massive deal of Okada I reckon he’d be huge already. I’m torn on the Moxley Desth Rider thing. Sometimes it’s Horsemen level and other times it’s really bad. No consistency

I’m unsure how signing big names from NJPW and then not really using them is sustainable. I get they have to make their own big names but you’ve got the most decorated NJPW champion nowhere near the title and Jay White hasn’t been a good guy in a decade. Your right the venues are half empty.

Was it I want him to see him get battered or I’ll just turn it off off putting? Out of curiosity
January 25, 2025 at 7:43 AM
Oh of course he wouldn’t. I was letting hyperbolic whimsy entertain me. Which I’m pretty sure is the point. As it’s all meant to be fun
January 25, 2025 at 7:22 AM
Yeah you might be right. I’m not massively passionate on the subject. Just had a subjective opinion. 😁

Hands up I don’t know the rating spikes or troughs so I’ll concede that. My point was more eyeballs on WWE is only a good thing and he doesn’t need to do the in ring stuff he does which I find impressive. But yeah he’ll never do a regular schedule. Imagine him in a G1 though haha

AR Fox is a fantastic wrestler. Would a mass audience pay to see him currently?
January 25, 2025 at 7:05 AM
He absolutely gets more time to practice that’s not in doubt. My argument is, as an event of seeing him does it get more eyeballs on WWE. And by that what is the definition of a ‘good’ wrestler?
January 25, 2025 at 7:02 AM
Absolutely did my bad. Leaned on the historic argument there without thinking. Still reckon the Logan Paul fan thing is valid though.
January 25, 2025 at 6:59 AM
So by the metric of selling an event, it works.
January 25, 2025 at 6:56 AM
Dunno, I reckon even if the product was shit, I’d still watch until it got better because I’m a wrestling fan. They’re Logan Paul fans who watch for him and him alone. Yeah he’s never gonna be the house show every week guy but I’m tuning in to see him lose the belt.
January 25, 2025 at 6:55 AM
I agree but also nobody else on the roster brings the audience he does. Not to compare apples and oranges but look at the views of the turgid Tyson vs Jake Paul fight. Unfortunately he can dictate his schedule because he brings the numbers. He launched Prime and everyone under 20 lost their mind.

I dunno, their hair is so luscious, I’d blind rage book too 😂

Also kinda terrifying that an opening sentence from an 1859 novel is more relevant now than ever.
January 25, 2025 at 5:25 AM
We are a jealous people.
