Anytime someone tries to make a bad faith argument comparing AEW to WCW, I know immediately they weren’t watching back then and have no idea what they’re talking about. Or they’re flat out grifting.

They get their rocks off humiliating him and they know he’ll gladly accept it, especially this late in his career.

My tail bone hurt after seeing that.

I think he bought into his own hype with people always praising him for reinventing himself and thought he could right the ship. I do think he was somewhat aware as it felt like to me, he was speed running different ideas in the last two years and was just trying to get something to stick.

Boo.

That’s bonkers.

ah fair lol

Did he?

Word salad.

That’s what they did in Lucha Underground and it was awesome.

You could do a video on the 1998 TV title scene easily. Literally the last period where that belt mattered thanks to Booker, Martel, Fit, etc.

I guess i should rephrase, their bid reflected what it was actually worth.

Peacock bowed out for a reason. They had, what? 5-6 years of hard data? They knew exactly how much it was worth and it’s certainly not worth what ESPN paid.

There’s this dude in an action figure group I’m in who’s just the biggest TKO bootlicker. His response, “well they aren’t running house shows so thru have to make that up”

So fewer shows and higher prices. Really family friendly huh?

The kicker? Guy HATES DJT. Talk about cognitive dissonance.

Doesn’t matter when the event is. After 20 years, the gimmick is played out and does more to hurt long term storytelling for a cheap pop.
