Now that AEW put on another stellar show and is on the eve of debuting on TNT, he crawls out from under his rock to shyt on a product he doesn’t watch
Jesus I don’t understand, I mean I know it’s a trolling gimmick and all but it’s an a lot of effort for something you say you haven’t watched in a decade every thread
Here in this thread you put in effort to support one of the most “play fighter” gimmicks of that time
CAWdy is the poster child of nepotism while DisGOAT was the gimmick of the year in the golden era play fighting .
My only issue with the character is the face turn on Meltzer by citing WON twice, positively, to make their case. Flagrant disregard of an established character’s history? Russo would never.
I hate when people try to deny Disco Inferno's impact on the wrestling business, and the legacy he left behind. I remember when both Stone Cold and The Rock were campaigning to get him into WWF, but Vince couldn't afford him at the time. I also remember when he was going to be a presenter at The Source Awards, but he had Make A Wish commitments the same night.
Disco had an actual gimmick, got over, and stayed over for his entire tenure in WCW. Had white women awkwardly dancing every week. Folks didn't even trip about him using the Stunner as his finisher. The streets rocked with Disco as well. That's why he blended in with The Filthy Animals so easily.
He’s got to be around 50 and you still expect him play fighting in 2019

With the Monday Night ratings war still being the hot topic of discussion and comparisons within the industry, at least in the United States, a secondary set of question which hasn't been answered has come up. Who draws what ratings and why?
Wrestlers have tried to talk about who individually draws what to prove who is over, and who isn't, bookers have done the same, and management theoretically pores over the quarter-hours trying to figure out what lesson exactly the viewing patterns of the public is telling them about which individual wrestlers.
Like most of pro wrestling, lots of talk. Lots of figures quoted without understanding. Almost no research.
With the start of the fall season at the beginning of September, we've been compiling all the quarter hours and who was in them in a key position. There are many ways you can do ratings for individuals, but the decision was made that the best is to judge based on how the ratings went up or down as compared with the previous quarter. Obviously if there is a huge audience watching, getting a big rating for a quarter is easier than if you start out. The quarter hour differences, pluses and minuses, tell if more people were tuning on then tuning out when this personality, and this is a personality driven business, was the key part of the show.
With any system, there are flaws. The two key ones right now are the 9 p.m. to 9:15 p.m. quarter hour on Nitro. With the start of the NFL and the start of Raw, you are almost guaranteed to drop at least a few rating points. The other key position is on Raw, during that unpredictable period somewhere between 10 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. when Nitro finally goes off the air. In theory, Raw should pick up viewers during that quarter, although as we've discussed, the reality is that isn't always the case, but in theory that should be a good period for Raw. Aside from that, this system is pretty well fair and fool-proof. Wrestlers in the first quarter hour, since the show is just starting and there is no plus or minus to figure from, aren't figured into the equation, although the pattern right now for both shows has been to start the show with interviews with the biggest stars.
And before getting into anymore analysis, we'll just present the data as it exists. The only names listed are those who since the start of September, have contributed to at least a .5 plus or minus rating. Wrestlers who aren't listed, and these are the majority, are basically ones that over the course of between 9/1 and 10/13 (the 10/20 shows aren't included in these numbers) have really made no ratings difference.

He quoting Meltzer and using aliases to back up his ramblings when not too long ago he was calling him a racist for backing Flair.Stellar according to whom? The marks that watch a 100 hours of fake fights a week anyway?
He’s only doing this because of AEW. He needed attention today because he’s a miserable loser."DisGOAT"
Your nicknames have become worse than your pathetic attempts at trolling lately
Oh how the mighty hath fallen
