Your Wrestling Pet Peeves?

[DaylitoJames]

When wrestlers wear jackets/coats but decided to take it off on stage instead of waiting until they get inside the ring to disrobe

Heel wrestlers as guest referees following the rules and using normal counts for most of the match instead of IMMEDIATELY screwing over the face with a fast count.

NOT ENOUGH CANADIAN DESTROYERS, THERE NEEDS TO BE ONE PER MATCH fukk IT LETS DO 2 PER MATCH /sarcasm


- Sick of THIS IS AWESOME, FIGHT FOREVER chants, one of the reasons why Puro crowds are the GOAT

-Only one person did a suicide dive in WWF back in the day and it was Bret Hart on rare occacasion, and now everyone does it every match, corny

 

[Love Sosa]

- WWE’s modern camera work. Ever since they upgraded to HD, they do a quick zoom anytime someone does any move. Every. Single. fukking. Time. Every punch, every slam, I can’t stand it.

- Matches looking like choreography. Only dude who looks like he even remotely listens to the crowd is Brock.

- Slapping the leg 500 times in one match.

- overuse of false finishes

- bad commentary

 

[luckyse7enz]

-Beat the champ to get a shot. No...that’s not how that works

-Excessive finishers (Why 2-3 Crossrhodes in a row on a regular Wednesday?)

-People doing front ninja rolls to change direction (ex. Darby) and get momentum before running into a corner.

Same for people who run all the way from one corner to another to spam dropkicks, forearms, etc. (Roddy, D-Bry, Miz, Bayley)

-Crowd cutting during spots

-Kind if tired of that spot where someone gets caught telegraphing a back body drop in the middle of the ring. Opponent kicks them and runs to the ropes to get momentum for a follow-up but SURPRISE, the telegrapher that just got kicked runs to the ropes first to cut them off and clothesline THEM.

It was cool at first, but it happens so often now that it’s almost as common as the tope suicida

 

[Slic Ric]

where do I begin?

The "wrestler is on the outside looking like a dumb ass looking around while wrestler B jumps out the ring onto him"
wrestlers getting punched in the face 10x straight without putting any hands up

 

[Dog Based Gremlin]

when people come out in their ring gear and they don't have a match scheduled

I hated Randy Orton for this for years. His whole career he would wear only a shirt during promos making it seems like he talking with his dikk out.

I miss the days when every main star had unique street clothes for promos

A few more...

• Clearing the announce table of jagged egdes and tv's before u throw your opponent thru it
• When people get hit with a move but slowly move into that angled position for the opponent's top rope finisher
• The way Seth Rollins moves sometimes. If you pay attention, he moves like a ballerina like he running on his tip toes especially on his suicide dive.

I remember those spots happing with the wcw cruiserweights . Not excessive like today tho.

 

[luckyse7enz]

I'm remembering a couple.

- I guess they go hand-in-hand but the thing some wrestlers do (usually guys that have been in Japan or the indies recently) where they have cheesy karate movie/cartoonish lines during offense...

Like Ricochet may call out his opponent's name and the opponent will charge. Ricochet evades as he goes "See ya!" or "I don't think so!" as he blocks and attacks.



I'm almost borderline on Omega's "YOU. CANNOT ESCAPE", but I accept that he's all about video games and is kind of goofy anyway...

 

[Doctor Doom]

Using kickpads and your strike offense is dogshyt

Miz should be banned from using kickpads, ruined the whole point of them.

I always thought Omega did that because he's pretty much been the strongest guy in the ring since like 2017.

Honestly had no clue

 

[FooFighters]

Everywrestlerever has got to the top of the cage and has both feet on the other side. Opponent grabs a single hand and Everywrestlerever decides it's a better idea to fully clamber back over the top of the cage and inside than it is to just drop to the fukking floor and win.

Ok that's been done forever

 

[stro]

People selling Benoit's especially diving headbutt like a KO shot instead of a fukking headbutt to the shoulder that it always was. It was never a head to head move, it was always to the shoulder to set up the crossface, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone sell it other than a knock out move.

Maybe you "made it seem" that way.
