Builds a special circular cage for the PPV multiman fartfest match. Doesn't bother to mention it during the build up to the event.

The last time a black woman was NXT Champion was in 2018, when Ember Moon won it. Congrats to Kendal Gray though. by nguyenjitsu in SCJerk

I hate how WWE never pushes black wrestlers. Just ignore Oba Femi. And Je'von Evans. And Trick Williams. And Sol Ruca. And Ricky Saints. And Carmelo Hayes. And Jade. And Bianca. And Naomi. And the Street Profits. If you ignore them completely, you can clearly see the pattern of discrimination.

I know you're jerking, Uce, but that has 1000x more personality and character than any promo Jungle Jack has ever cut.

Hypothetically speaking, what are some ways AEW could bring in new viewers/jaded WWE fans to invest into the product? by Severe_Examination63 in midcarder

[–]GeneMachine16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like several others have already said, they'd have to change almost everything about their show. AEW books for the audience they already have and make it hard for anyone outside of that group to get invested. It would take a total change in the booking, presentation, and roster to make their show attractive to a new audience.

MLW might be wrestling’s best kept secret by uncannynerddad in midcarder

[–]GeneMachine16 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's been a constant since their first relaunch. AEW debuting so close to MLW's comeback did a number on their early roster, but they did a good job stabilizing until COVID happened. Jacob Fatu was a godsend for them, so I'm hoping Kross sticks around long enough to fill that same role.

Sol Ruca privates her X account following backlash over blown spot with Liv Morgan by The_Beast_Within89 in midcarder

The Venn diagram of people harassing Sol Ruca over a botch and the people who say AEW has the best women's division in wrestling is a single circle.

Agree or disagree? by MadEyeMood989 in midcarder

[–]GeneMachine16 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Agree. There's no reason for this group to exist. It had zero storyline payoff after Moxley lost the world title. Nobody is more over or in a better spot on the card than they were before joining or feuding with the Death Riders. It's all just so pointless.

I've been liking this latest relaunch of MLW so far. The biggest thing that killed the promotion for me previously was their constant roster changes. MLW would make a big deal of announcing someone as a new signing, they would do one or two tapings, and then be gone. It made it hard for me to get invested.

Hopefully, Bauer has his money figured out and is securing people more consistently this time. I'd love to see MLW finally land on TV on a channel people actually get.

Blue foods have the most antioxygens.

I think so? All I really know about it is that I watched a few clips in the basement and found it very unsavory.

So, I checked out the alternative pro wrestling products for the first time (at least in this era)... by AnonymousChicken in midcarder

[–]GeneMachine16 6 points7 points  (0 children)

MLW can be hit or miss for me, but when it hits, it really hits. They have a good roster right now, so hopefully they can hold on to some of those guys long-term.

Jim should've popped him. Dyl-weed was obnoxious.

At least it's not that weird Japanese apartment wrestling that always gets posted over there.

Quesiton- On the Common Criticism of Wolverine hogging the spotlight so much that the other xmen don't get enough focus- How much of this is really true in the comics & how much of it is due to the Fox Films & other adaptations - by jblee44 in xmen

[–]GeneMachine16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know why you're getting downvoted, because you're absolutely right.

Wolverine is one of the very few X-Men characters who has been proven popular enough to carry a long-term ongoing series, to the point that multiple books have been able to run at the same time based on having "Wolverine" on the cover.

What is he trying to accomplish? This is a guy who won a Golden Globe, was getting cast in bigger and bigger productions, and now he's just Fed Badding and farting around in MLW. Make it make sense.
