if there is one thing u could change about MODERN wrestling what gets the :camby:

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

what about modern pro wrestling would u give the

me? i'm gettn rid of most finisher 2.9 counts... it's so blatant. Finishers should be way more protected. There's a time and a place. WrestleMania or a blood feud blow off or whatever.. maybe... but u got goofballs such as Sammy Guevara doin 2.9 bullsh-t on random eps. of Velocity. Dumb

Protect finishers. You can wrestle around them.. Omega hasn't had the One Winged Angel kicked out in years.

2 things

Stop leaving so much space between gut kicks

Stop doing leg slaps for fukking chops

Champions coming out first. My biggest pet peeve in wrestling!

Selling is atrocious in almost all companies. There are a lot of moves wrestlers use that should end the match.

Hardcore wrestling needs to be used sparingly. Most of the hardcore wrestling in the indies and in AEW is cringeworthy at best.

Wrestlers kicking out of finishers in regular matches. Finishers used to mean the match was over, unless it was a title match or blood feud. Now people kick out of multiple finishers, which is just a way to make average matches seem epic.

The endless rematches.

Meaningless high spots

Sami gave Owens a brainbuster on the apron…..it had no affect on the match.

 

[SubZeroDegrees]

The lack of leg work. Seems like no one use that in the arsenal anymore.

 

[patscorpio]

More focus on the in ring storytelling..more credible looking offense...selling

 

[JerseyBoy23]

No more headbutts, idc if they are worked or not.

Apron spots are severely overused !

I know that we're only supposed to name one thing, but I've been holding these in for a long time so I'm gonna be on my K-Solo shyt .
Anyway:

• Unnecessary flips & twirling. Rasslin matches are supposed to look like fights, not gymnastics competitions.
• I'd save table breaking for major events/angles. Table spots used to be big deals, now they mean nothing.
• I'd make hosses wrestle like hosses again. Everybody doesn't need to dive.
• I'd make wrestlers stay off of social media. If you're supposed to be a deranged killer from Parts Unknown, I don't need to see your IG posts of your latest Trader Joe's run.
• I'd bring back storyline reasons for wrestlers to want to fight each other. Random, thrown-together "dream matches" without history or context ain't it.
• I'd legalize steroids. Rasslers don't look like rasslers anymore. There's nothing intimidating about a guy who looks like he stocks shoes at Foot Locker.
• Blood has lost all meaning in modern wrestling. I'd save blading for big angles or big matches.
• I'd ban wrestlers from discussing match layouts, planned finishes, etc. Them telling us that the shyt is fake doesn't help the business.
• I'd bring back kid-friendly Saturday morning wrestling. "Wholesome" characters like R-Truth, Reggie, Rey Misterio, Orange Cassidy, Luchasaurus, & Willow Nightengale would be huge with kids!

Blood is overused by AEW. NWA did the same thing in the day. There should be a middle ground. WWE was always the best at when to use blood. Remember that JBL vs. Eddie match? Nobody cared about JBL really but after that match they had a BLOODBATH... totally unexpected and from there JBL was over as a heel and Eddie was already a made man but the feud got a lot bigger..
