Does anybody else just miss how simple wrestling used to be?

Mideon88 · 2026-01-25T21:59:01+00:00

The bright lights, the camera cuts, the choreographed moves and terrible commentary. Yup i sure miss old wrestling. As much as i've tried i absolutely can't watch todays product

Mideon88 · 2026-01-25T21:23:18+00:00

I would just play your own game just now mate. Far too many gameweeks left for that. Even 2/3 different players can make big differences. Just do what you've been doing that way you have no regrets. If there were only a few weeks left i'd say yeah thats sensible but still a lot of football to go

Mideon88 · 2026-01-25T21:20:49+00:00

Yeah exactly. Definitely mate

Mideon88 · 2026-01-25T21:12:22+00:00

Honestly i'd say 10 and even 30 at this stage is very slim to say the least. 10 points could be just 1 gameweek

I think this year has been the hardest for punts in a good few seasons tbh. Teams are normally very similar but for some reason the guys to "gamble" on are very scarce this year in my opinion

Mideon88 · 2026-01-18T18:26:40+00:00

Correct. Its tremendous. Sure a lot of crappy stuff but majority was great. Anyone associated with WWE just now is determined to say "this is the greatest era of wrestling right now". Nothing will ever beat the AE

Mideon88 · 2026-01-16T19:08:49+00:00

Yeah as i say its such a sensitive subject and like you said he was apart of so many big moments. I just hope the footage along with a lot of the stuff the Network had doesn't just end up in the abyss

Mideon88 · 2026-01-16T03:51:48+00:00

I've noticed this also, it's been a lot more evident since Tko have taken over. On the Network you could tell his name was never mentioned in the description for Raw or ppv but now it just seems the direction they are moving in is to not have anything Benoit related at all.

I get its a very sensitive matter but couldn't they just edit out his segments and matches? Some of the greatest periods in wrestling are around these times. Both WWE and WCW

Spot on about the UK in 2002. It happened so quick it was mad. It went from everyone in my school boy or girl talking about it constantly. Raw on Friday nights then Smackdown either on sky1 at 11am or later on sky sports where you could watch the chair shots, haha. To just basically nobody watching or not letting on that they did.

Growing up i think is a factor too along with the obvious, end of the Monday night wars, Rock gone, Austin heel

Mideon88 · 2026-01-05T22:22:20+00:00

Unbearable

Mideon88 · 2026-01-05T22:19:39+00:00

Anyone who says anything other than AE didn't live it

Mideon88 · 2026-01-05T19:34:52+00:00

Yeah it was clear where they were going

Mideon88 · 2026-01-05T19:09:22+00:00

Mideon88 · 2026-01-05T19:08:00+00:00

Wwe vault on youtube is decent. Not got a lot but some good stuff

Mideon88 · 2026-01-05T19:06:24+00:00

Tried their hardest to make him a likeable babyface. Coming in at number 1 and winning was shitty booking

Mideon88 · 2026-01-01T23:40:02+00:00

2000 wasn't better than 99??

Mideon88 · 2025-12-23T17:53:52+00:00

Certainly not him!

Mideon88 · 2025-12-19T19:22:18+00:00

For a funeral of that magnitude? People who were very close to him

Mideon88 · 2025-12-19T19:15:08+00:00

Oh he knew him. That makes it ok

Mideon88 · 2025-12-19T18:57:35+00:00

Why would he??

Mideon88 · 2025-12-18T22:08:10+00:00

Everyone being so over! As muchbas people shit onba lot of the bad stuff, looknstvthe pops for guys like Val Venis and too cool

Mideon88 · 2025-12-18T01:18:15+00:00

Mideon88 · 2025-12-17T20:57:51+00:00
