Watching some Crockett/WCW stuff on the Network as I've never seen a lot of it. Not watching every weekly TV show just going through each one and following some of the storylines and then the Great American Bash/Starrcades.
Up to the Road Warriors/Midnight Scaffold match now.

Did you also notice, with the exception of Sin Cara, that everyone was over in that match? Vince really knows how to fuck things up.
Good point. When was the last time WWE paid big $ to create a video package like this for a wrestler? Bray Wyatt?
I getcha, though oddly I was thinking about this more for NXT and thinking that there's no real rush to give Dream the belt when Cole can just hold it until they can actually fight with a crowd behind them.
I guess it's a bit different with Drew though as it still carries the whole WRESTLEMANIA naming convention with the whole rumble win build, his loss would look a bit more like a choke in kayfabe or something.
Perhaps Lesnar could finally dispense the dick kicks for a change, ultimate loss protection right there.
They brought back the olds for a nostalgia pop while poorly booking the new guys, part Russo, part Vinny Mac, all disappointing!This new Star Wars movie was booked by Russo
Thought it was the real Io LOL. I don't spend much time on twitter so the the fan accounts get me confused sometimes.
It's great to do that. Being able to go weekly on that old stuff is so great.
it started off ironic but i've seen plenty of dorks saying Urrrh Actually I Liked It
Definitely, only bad thing so far is having to fish around for some of the title changes because they are only in highlight clips.
Tully/Magnum I Quit was my favorite thing so far.
Also loved some of the goofy shit like the Jimmy Valiant/Paul Jones hair shaving saga.
I mean if your only exposure to DDT is gifs from Twitter/Reddit, sure.
plenty of 10/10 ratings on cagematch
"Utilized 50 minutes better than an okada main event ever has"
"a minimalist masterclass of tension building, squeezing the most out of as little as could possibly be done"
The lengths we go to to be seen as cultured and ahead of the curve
It's in the zeitgeist now. 10/10 or 0/10, pick a side, be a Cornette manbaby or a puro mouthbreather.
"This was more than wrestling, it was art it went beyond the bounds of what is normally thought of as a prowrestling match by using the situation faced by the world and of the empty arena to tell a story of defiance and mental and physical toughness."
"What a strange, unique, experimental, yet invaluable experience this match was. without doubt, it'll be one of the most important and influential Japanese title matches in the coming decade."

Taker thought he was special just because LeBron wore his shirt lol.
I would put the other Sasha vs Bayley match in there and Asuka vs Nikki Last Woman Standing.
Judging by the poster, this was Mania 25 which was in Texas so Punk was probably like hey Cowboys and their hats LOL
It should not surprise me that we have people unironically stanning for a Fujita match in 2020 where literally nothing happens for 30 mins while making dumb jokes about long matches thinking they are clever. This is what Robert and the rest of the "pro-wrestling conoisseur" shit-take machines have propagated over the last few years.
There is shitposting and then there is shit posting.

He walked into the pit of danger but never walked out.
Dave blocked him, good to see he still can't take any sort of rib even when it's not one.
I thought they were just trying to remain compliant with Shidaposting ERA rules. No Shida Twitter quoting unless you include one creepy reply. In this case, the RP account.
The reality of this statement makes me want to throw myself in the fucking sea.
The existence of this match and the reaction to it are The Monkey's Paw for wrestling fans wishing for graps back at any cost in the pandemic. (That and teleporting Matt Hardy)
Interestingly enough while I have no interest in the match I have an interest in watching watchalongs from funny and clever people of the match.
