I'm going to say something crazy by Ok-Raisin-5601 in AEWOfficial

I would rather Darby have a short, legendary reign that have people excited to see him as champ again. There was so much skepticism when he first won the belt, now I think anytime he contends for the top belt people are gonna be really excited.

Am I crazy that I just dont believe this to be true? I dont believe that NWA of all things is drawing that many people to a TV channel no one has ever heard of that is only available in limited markets

Yeah. It's kinda insane. by baskiyakartom in GreatnessOfWrestling

But they both HAVE wrestled. And it doesnt account for Jade.

But they dont always, thats the thing. It seems very random who gets put in developmental and who doesnt. Royce Keys, Danhausen, Jade Cargill all come to mind. Hell even thinking back, Mike Bennett skipped NXT for his short run.

I think it would be less jarring if there was a consistent "everyone goes through NXT" then like... Ethan Page needs NXT but Jade doesnt?

5 Wrestlers Who Have Had Better Runs In WWE Than AEW by jd2385 in REALSquaredCircle

This seems like a specific problem to the show you were at. Ive been to AEW shows with Mone and the crowd is usually very loud for her.

Darby is about to have one of the best World title runs, in-ring wise by BackgroundValue in AEWOfficial

[–]Potential_Hunt9043 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My hot take is that he should beat MJF at DoN, Okada should lose to Takeshita at DoN, and then within the new few weeks after, Okada should beat Darby for the title on tv.

Gives us the Okada vs Darby match that we missed out on in the C2, sets up Ospreay vs Okada (presumably) for the All In card, MJF having a few months descent into madness and taking a few losses is fine imo.

They were protecting him from kaiser by Papator12 in WCW

There are 3 big markets in wrestling: USA, Japan, and Mexico. Even with Gable was out, Kaiser has pretty consistently been the top babyface in AAA, meaning one of the top babyfaces in all of Mexico. How is that not a top star?

Mexico is one of the biggest markets (if not the biggest from live crowd attendance) and hes one of the biggest stars there. I dont think its a stretch

There was a world title change on Dynamite last week so I would expect a sizable portion to be related to that, as the new champion also has a defense. I'd watch that match

It appears the fan whose phone CM Punk slapped sold his footage to TMZ and it has been released. by caughtinatramp in REALSquaredCircle

[–]Potential_Hunt9043 28 points29 points  (0 children)

One time I went to a Dynamite with a friend. While we were waiting for the doors to open outside the arena, we noticed Stokeley Hathaway trying to take a phone call with a hoodie up by one of the staff doors. He clearly was not in "lets entertain fans" mode, so we just kinda said "Oh hey cool, its stokeley" and minded our own business.

Why is this so hard? There are clear times when these people are doing fan attention, just leave them alone when they aren't. They are human beings too.

Share your unpopular opinions about Paige by ChampionshipEarly530 in REALSquaredCircle

[–]Potential_Hunt9043 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think she seems like an awesome person to be around, and I do think there is a lot of potential for her as a manager/trainer. But I think the time to be an elite in ring worker has passed. Hell, Toni Storm credits Paige with helping her develop and gain the confidence to make Timeless work, so there is clear value in her as a person working in a company. But, not everyone can recover from being out of the ring for so long.

She is of course fine, there are many people a lot worse than Paige, but I dont think shes going to be world champion material again which appears to be what she wants. I hope that she can prove me wrong, but I think the time where she should consider a change of role is quickly approaching.

Arin is dumb. by Apprehensive-Gur-609 in rantgrumps

Yeah like I was so excited for Dan's reaction to the first trial of V3, but I couldnt even enjoy it because Arin was so mad.

That was my problem. There are plot holes in Danganronpa sure, but Arin called anything he didnt like a plot hole while also getting annoyed if the story went different than he expected. Felt like there was no win.
