Psychoblue Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Real shame about that Saudi hold-up, that was far and beyond their best show of that series. Ah well, MBS has KOF now to play with. I stopped giving a shit about what people think about wrestling a long time ago. That's why I'll always keep it real and say what I say and whoever balks at that can step back and think about it some more if they wish. It's why I'm glad NWA is back because discussions about that show are tempered and objective since there's no expectations about it other than being a fun alternative with no higher ambitions than that.

scorp Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 haha I cancelled my WWE network and stopped watching completely during this event in 2018 Khashoggi had just been cut up by the Saudi's, people like Cena and Bryan refused to go and this event was absolute dogshit. It was at that time that I realized I need to stop complaining every Tuesday morning about how shitty RAW was and how absolute ass the entire company was. It's been a better life ever since.

scorp Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 And this caught me by surprise I actually thought that WWE was booking women better. Maybe that's just Smackdown tho, RAW seems to be doing everything terribly Quote Link to comment

I just tell people, don't torture yourself by watching something you will complain about weekly or bi-weekly, cause that shit is self-torture and stupid lol Watching a bad show that you don't enjoy for the sake of watching it will never make sense to me. I’m just glad I’ve met enough people in the wrestling community that I can actually talk to as a person and not just bitch about whatever weekly program Edited March 30, 2021 by iStu X scorp, Psychoblue and Hawkingbird 3 Quote Link to comment

That's where both parties fall off hard in the last few years: people about one life are allied with people who aren't necessarily about theirs just because they have a common enemy in the other side with the same issues.

Vince basically had a weird rule where if it was in the USA he didn't care. Hence Jericho initial run with njpw, basically wouldn't do any show in the US because of Vince.

That's good and hopefully a triple h influence. He's cares so much about prowrestling lineage and history.

I don't think it matters from what country because they are all important to him Vince will allow it because NJPW had a long history with him and his father, and a lot of how WWE models their professionalism expectations and even the drills they run for trainees are modeled after NJPW etiquette and the Dojo. But anyway, we're talking about this rather shocking situation. I'm halfway expecting the version we watch to dance around AEW, but at the same time it's pretty clear Vince stopped worrying about AEW encroaching given how many guys have been cut and even recently cut with no 90 day clause attached, so maybe they'll just let Jericho talk about it as much as he wants and it all shows up unless NBC gets mad that a show on TNT is getting promoted so heavily.
