The fact that Jack Swagger debuted in AEW shows how lame they are

Lmao at his MMA excursion. He wasn't fighting people like Brock Lesnar did. He literally fought a fat guy who worked at a meat factory as his day job. The mental gymnastics used are hilarious.
Gotta start somewhere. No mental gymnastics. I'm obviously not as invested as you are. And definitely less mad about it :ehh:

I still don't see the negative in this. He's gonna be Jericho's muscle not the world champ.

And if he ever is the world champion, it'll be because they built him up to be one not because he was an ex-WWE guy.

Swagger even when he was tailing off at the end of his run in WWE still got pops. And stop with he revisionist history on Luger. Outside 97 he was always mid at best, especially if Flair wasn't carrying him. People acting like he wasn't the Reigns of his time period. Swagger will be fine. And he's a solid wrestler which Luger never was

Good lord. Pretending Swagger was getting pops and having the nerve to shyt on Luger :hhh:

Luger was a star during his WCW days and early WWF days. Comparing Swagger to him is a fukin joke lol

And who cares about being a better wrestler? What are you 8? :lolbron:

Let's not act like if TNA did this people wouldnt be laughing at it :yeshrug:

Depends on the circumstances though.

For Hager so far he is undefeated in MMA

And his last televised wrestling appearance (which coincidentally too was on a Wednesday this year) he was a champion and literally if that company today announced they coming back in 2020, he’s the reigning champ:manny:

Not like they debuting someone that got his ass whooped and banished months ago:ld:

People here exaggerate the importance of coming from a "legit" background. Jack Swagger could be 20-0 in MMA and he'd still be a bland goofball with a lisp. Most fans only are concerned with whether someone is entertaining and what they do in the ring.

I mean, overall, you are right. Rock and Austin and Hogan are the biggest stars ever and none of them had credibility so can't say you are wrong but it definitely doesn't hurt to have a legit reputation also

Swagger was getting pops. Like I said, Luger was only hot when Flair carried him. Who cared about his mid card title runs before he switched. And he flamed out on top just like swagger. Both when Flair left and with the lex express shyt where fans outright rejected him twice. Only legit moment he had was that august in 97 when he beat Hogan. So if you gonna shyt on Swagger and revisionisize Luger its not gonna happen. And yes it does matter he was the better wrestler. Cause that why we watch this shyt. For the good workers. Or are you one of those who prioritizes gimmicks and promos over all?
