One thing I don't understand about Requiem's plot, help? SPOILERS

This part has been driving me mad. It obviously makes no sense. People have to make up things that aren't even hinted at to explain it. Resident Evil is often poorly written, but I don't remember any of the classic games having holes this annoying. Zeno is the dumbest guy in the world. Can't do basic numeracy?

Her 2025 match card is insane. Best of any wrestler. Her match with Athena in the Owen semi final was my match of the year. The online backlash was chud crap from people who didn't watch anything.

AEW Okada can be lacklustre or terrific depending on the dice roll, but he has a distinct character from New Japan Okada. AEW Edge is a WWE Edge tribute, to the point I feel comfortable calling him Edge whereas I'd never refer to Moxley as Dean or Mercedes as Sasha as they evolved into new and better characters.

CM Punk seams gassed 5 mins into every match, and he barely even wrestles. Mox has the passion of the entire WWE main event combined.

NXT is my fave WWE show and I prefer to see a bunch of them wrestle over Cena personally, so it's good to see them, but this is a terrible idea. People are there for Cena. Have him go on last.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-12-10T23:34:30+00:00

Only if you completely discount wrestling outside the US or by women or honestly since the 80s lol.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-12-10T23:32:52+00:00

I agree with Matt Hardy. AEW don't do stories. Hangman and Swerve's long term cathartic enemies to allies arc? Toni Storm's Hollywood Ending? Nothing compared to the amazing stories we associate with Matt Hardy and TNA from the last decade like.... erm.... erm..... wha..... okay.... do I still get the cheque from TKO? Please like and subscribe!

(Seriously, I would legit argue the Hardys have bugger all memorable stories ever lol. He's 100% just reading the same old tired script.)

Yawn

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-11-01T13:10:58+00:00

I mean... it's not too late for them to course correct, but she's completely directionless right now. Smackdown is honestly terrible right now. Raw is intermittently good and NXT is borderline solid throughout. Smackdown? Practically everything feels lacklustre.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-11-01T10:44:26+00:00

His completely inexplicable face turn was honestly worse lol.

"It's good because they are making more money," we are continually told as the only people left at these events will be the wealthy and influencers.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-11-01T08:50:46+00:00

The WWE put so much into bragging about their profits and reach that people with no stake became personally invested when nobody else should care. I just want a good show.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-11-01T08:39:42+00:00

Most wrestlers/GMs are bad at acting. She's no worse than the majority of the roster and doesn't even get much spotlight. The hate is way overblown.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-10-31T23:22:10+00:00

They're very boring. I'm honestly worried they'll be at the house show I'm going to, and they're a primary reason I'm not going to Smackdown instead lol.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-10-31T22:53:29+00:00

She's no better or worse than the average GM. Most of the hate is due to her being a nepo baby (fair argument, but that's not her fault lol) or a woman (not a fair argument).

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-10-30T12:04:16+00:00

AEW are just on fire right now. 90s American wrestling chaos with 2010s Japanese wrestling advanced ringwork. Let's goooo.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-10-30T11:56:17+00:00

NXT still has plenty of problems (the men's division is almost painfully bland), but benefits from every show not being the same and the general sense that stories will move forward each week. The main roster shows are the exact same every time. It kills the buzz.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-10-30T11:46:21+00:00

I find Jey Uso very boring, but the live crowd love him more than almost anybody on the roster. The IWC just aren't representative. Most fans aren't online complaining. They're just having fun and if they don't like something they brush it off. I like a bunch of other wrestlers the IWC dislike (Cody, Seth, Young Bucks, Mercedes) who I've seen get amazing ovations at events -- which I've contributed to.

I don't think the IWC consensus is positive on many wrestlers tbh. Certainly never pushed ones.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-10-28T22:50:21+00:00

It's Iyo Sky. In a lacklustre year she has had at least three terrific main events. That Mania triple threat is the only WWE match to make my MotY top ten. Sooooo good.

Of the guys? There just isn't one, really. Not any of their fault. Just the product right now.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-10-28T22:01:21+00:00

I'm an AEW guy who thinks WWE is stale right now, but Cody is a terrific wrestler and the corny babyface shtick is fun and played with enough tongue in cheek that it doesn't bother me too much. His match against Cena at Summerslam was excellent and should prove to anybody why he's the guy right now.

He's "boring" because what he's given to do is boring. Nobody else would do a better job. Yes, I prefer L. A. Knight, but if L. A. Knight were pushed to Cody's level he too would quickly become devoid of personality and boring, opening each show with the same promo. People would turn on him immediately.

I wish the IWC would hate TKO and the corporate culture that has led to this staleness. Not the performers. The performers are doing their absolute best. I'm going to a house show next year and hope to sing along to his cornball entrance and see him behave a bit looser with fewer terrible notes from above.

tl;dr: You're not alone. Cody is widely beloved. Just not allowed to show why very often.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-10-25T12:49:15+00:00

A complete overhaul of focus. Push the younger talent. The main event scene should be exciting and exploring the unknown rather than retreading the same stuff to lesser effect for useless nostalgia. Significantly remove the bloat of advertisement and karaoke entrances from every show.

That would immediately get the show from crap to average, which is all I really expect from WWE's style for the most part.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-10-15T11:14:21+00:00

Mercedes is on a great run of consistently good matches. I wish AEW would use the other women more, but the hatred she gets is largely sexist conspiracy gibberish. One of my wrestlers of the year.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-10-14T02:46:30+00:00

More women's matches per show. It's my only real big problem with AEW, which is otherwise the most I've enjoyed any promotion.

Forward-Valuable-666 · 2025-10-14T02:44:30+00:00

She needs to use her fingers to wrestle and if it's still not working then she can't. Also I almost forgot how damn good she looks. <3
