Cut back and pick which few feds to follow. I mean I basically just watch NXT and WWE PPvs, and Lucha Underground. I'll watch Raw/SD on hulu if I'm bored one day, but yeah. Just cut back to the essentials. I honestly don't know how some people watch all that indie shyt.

Eh its no different from watching indie movies. Some of it is good, while others are trash:scust:. I tried watching Powerbomb TV because it had a 20 day free trial and yuck:picard:. I had to question why I even watch wrestling because majority of those promotions man:camby:

Yeah. It's like this whole "MMA" I'm real follow my social media bullshyt is killing my interest to be honest. It's a fake sport trying to be legit:gucci:. That's why I be hoping Braun bring back the feeling because I miss it just being about whose going to be the top bad ass and "I'm going to kill the wrestler Gene" vs this twitter beef=storyline shyt:scust:

Very few people on the WWE roster look threatening, Vince McMahon's writing and presentation sucks, and they don't really give time to people who can talk.

I saw part of the Club/Shield/Jason Jordan segment and NOBODY in that segment looked any good. Then I saw some segment with the Club amongst themselves later and it was fukking awful. Some of the corniest shyt I've seen all year. I couldn't even get through 5 mins of RAW. How do they manage to hook people week in and week out at this point, I don't understand

I'm saying though:dwillhuh:. I swear when I read Raw threads from here to other wrestling forums it the same shyt:

  • Balor looks like shyt:scust:
  • This segment is terrible:gucci:
  • Stephanie again:snoop:
  • Bayley WTF:why:
  • WALK WITH ME ELIAS:blessed::dame:
While there's a Meltz in all of us, honestly it's not even worth the energy to bytch about something that won't change. Shoot, I keep forgetting there's a Rumble coming up:manny:. Like it hurts. If I would tell a 13 year old mark (me) many years ago that this wrestling shyt is going to fall off hard because WWE, I would have been gave up once Vince ended up on Nitro:to:.

To be fair even Meltz is tired of this, he's just getting paid for it. He only covers WWE because people who pay for his newsletter expect it. I've been listening to leaked WOR shows on YouTube and dude will talk about Japan and MMA for half the show.

I don't even think Meltz covered WWE on the level of NJPW since the PWI 100th magazine edition:wow:. I looked on the Wiki and seen a shyt load of UFC and NJPW promotion of the year awards :mjlol:.

WWE does not advertise the Network well enough. They had so many subs if they could get former fans to realize they have a big ass catalog.

They are so obtuse to marketing the Network, that they conned folks into buying Survivor Series for a discounted PPV price on the Network, than promoting the 9.99 deal:mindblown:.


They need to rehire whoever did this promo because :whew:I wanted to cop on impulse.

Have you considered watching some old stuff from when your interest in wrestling was at peak levels? Sweetheart will completely go off modern wrestling every now and again, and watch nothing but old NWA stuff until it looks like all the mullets run together. I don't get it, but it's a little like hybernation for him.

Alternately, you could take a break until the Rumble?

Right! They should've dropped a 30 second cut of that advertisement during the Super Bowl before the launch. Would've caught the eyes of so many people. I still think they should drop the cash for it, they're really lucky that the international audience picked up the slack cause those subscribers numbers were looking :flabbynsick: at first.

I love this wrestling thing of ours. I grew up on it. The guys in charge suck but there are people who got trained to be in this and who died in the game who deserve respect.

The WWE's push Roman at all costs measure is horrible but the talent surrounding it is very good on a historical level.

I tried watching some old NJPW and AJPW matches, but I got to be in a mood to watch the classics. Yeah, most likely, I need a break because as I stated in this thread I love wrestling, I really do, but my heart is not into it like it used to be. When I had buyer's remorse over friggin Wrestle Kingdom, I knew it was time to just fall back a bit because Jericho/Omega should have had me losing my shyt:lupe:, but I ended up more hyped about Suzuki strangling Goto from the top rope:damn:.
