Pretty much every single signature move. The only times the pin goes to 3 is roll ups or finishers, I can't remember last time someone got pinned from something else. :patrice:

So yeah, I cringe whenever a signature move is a near fall and the comms/crowd scream like they thought it was going to go to 3 :comeon: We know if it ain't a finisher or roll up, it ain't going to 3 :martin:

Even when matches do try to have psychology, it gets fukked up by no selling and superman comeback sequences.

*Work Roman's arm and shoulder the whole match so that it hurts him when he goes for the spear, then he does it with no problem and raises the same arm after the match* :francis:

*Nikki works Charlotte's midsection the whole match to make it painful for her to apply the Figure Eight, then she locks it in with ease and Nikki taps out in seconds* :francis:

I remember that :mjlol:

Everything is meaningless, on top of finishers being irrelevant, rarely is a story even told in the ring, just moving from one high spot to another, a circus show

When I was your age, even the wrist lock was a damaging move, would be held for 5-10 minutes straight to build the tension:wow:


They do all this extra bullshyt to build to nothing but a broken down roster. Stupid spots on throwaway shows got your whole roster gutted. Watching HitGOAT wrestle everything he did had a purpose shyt seemed legit real these new bucks now can't tell stories or build to shyt these days not all but 90 percent of the roster.
