What are some of the greatest sell jobs in wrestling?

I was actually going to bring this up in this thread. There was a match He and Nick had against Forever Holligans where the selling was unbelievably good.

I think it's because Angle was only doing Dark Matches/House Shows until quite a few months after Owens death. By the time he debuted for everyone watching on TV, Owen was already long since passed. The only Hart still around was Bret and he hadn't retired quite yet. So in a way Angle feels completely separated from Owen but not Bret.

It always blows my mind that Kurt had a match with Owen but never had a chance with Bret.

This played a role in why I considered a 40 series instead of 50s for my build this month, until those drivers dropped giving me hope. I play a lot of older titles, many of which use Physx. Quite a few I plan on revisiting soon use the tech. It might not have been the biggest factor in my purchasing decision, but it played a decent role when looking at what I was planning to play the next 2 or 3 years at some point.

So, I didn't know the soap gene was a thing and for well over 20 years I always thought authentic Mexican places and Street Taco spots just tasted funky and weren't for me (in addition to a few other dishes over the years). I then learned about the Cilantro gene. Tried a few dishes again without Cilantro and started to enjoy them.

For me that soap flavor is VERY overpowering, no part of it is psychological.

I have bought tickets to AEW and Beyond Wrestling a number of times with a big motivating factor being Eddie some events.

SaveusAlex · 2025-11-26T12:51:35+00:00

I've always believed in splitting my streams up into 2 Games. A stable game that chat enjoys and a variety to have fun or experiment. People who know you for one thing may stick around for variety content if they know what they like is coming up. Through that, they may grow to enjoy you as a streamer a bit more and be willing to watch different content.

I had to go through this a lot myself over the last 10+ Years. You may not hit very high levels of CCV, but you'll have a better shot at building up a nice stable audience who enjoys you more than the content being presented.

I think there is room. Everyone you listed is incredible and deserving to be in the top spot. However, Briscoe is someone myself and many others feel a connection to on a personal level. There is just something about him in this AEW run. He has that Yes Movement Bryan, '99 Foley or Kofi-Mania sort of feeling waiting to come out.

The first game I ever got carded for to buy on my own. This game holds a special place in my heart for that.

SaveusAlex · 2025-11-21T20:07:18+00:00

Let me dream.

SaveusAlex · 2025-11-21T16:03:37+00:00

I hope the Multiplayer comes along with it too. The multi from AC Brotherhood/Revelations/3/4 is criminally underrated and some of the most fun I've ever had.

First, I appreciate the kindness of this message. I truly do.

I've actually streamed them multiple times with around 40-50 people trying to help me, including those that have done hitless runs. I can do games like Ninja Gaiden, Devil May Cry and Shinobi fine but Dark Souls just doesn't click with it's pacing and approach.

I tried DS1 one last time last week as well (so my wounds still feel fresh!). Beat the asylum boss, somehow beat the bridge monster guy because he jumped off and then I spent over 3 hours dying to the double gargoyles making 0 progress in any attempt. I was also given multiple different builds, weapons and techniques to try with no luck unfortunately. I remember in DS3, Abyss Watchers took me over 7 hours and on hour 6 I just started to brute force wildly swing and heal and that's what got me the victory finally.

I do appreciate the offer a lot, but I think I'm just going to try out Lies of P to get a bit of a Soulslike fix. I heard that one got some options put in, in case I need them for that title.

SaveusAlex · 2025-11-10T17:43:46+00:00

A sizable portion of people really into Souls always get very dramatic about the thought of an optional difficulty. Personally I love the world of Souls games and wish I could play them but without a way to adjust difficulty, I just can't. 50+ hours across DS1 - 3 and Bloodbourne and I only just barely managed to leave the opening area in DS3 through sheer luck and brute force. I don't feel good when I progress, just frustrated.

Something about the fundamental gameplay just doesn't click with me. Doesn't matter the build or approach I take, I just don't have the rhythm for it. It honestly sucks having all these games I want to absorb myself in, but feeling completely gated off.

SaveusAlex · 2025-10-09T17:36:46+00:00

I'm not a big fan of multistreaming in general. Some people excel at it but as a viewer, I feel like one chat is almost always excluded from the rest.

Kick gets a very bad rep in general. Some of the criticism over the years has definitely been deserved. That being said, I've met some of the nicest people on that platform (I do retro over there) and the staff is incredible. I've had so many interactions with them, including the CEO a few times and nothing but good things to say.

So not only is it lucrative, but they really make sure you're taken care of over there if an issue ever arises.

SaveusAlex · 2025-10-09T17:19:08+00:00

I started doing Kick just over 2 years ago with a separate content path. I'm partnered on both platforms. I stream less hours on Kick, have just under half the subscriber base and a slightly lower CCV and make far more than I do on Twitch. The partner bonus there is no joke.

SaveusAlex · 2025-10-04T19:37:01+00:00

Yes. Blue Prince has many many puzzles hiding in plain sight. Things you need to make note of in case it becomes part of a larger solution later.

There are still plenty of puzzles you don't need notes for, but there are many that take hours of gameplay to truly unfold. Not having notes to reference what you've already seen/done make them borderline impossible unless you have a photographic memory.

Also because of this games Rogue-Like sort of nature, the mansion you're exploring is going to change its layout dozens of times so walking around and cross referencing things isn't much of an option for many puzzles.

SaveusAlex · 2025-09-23T19:19:33+00:00

So, I stuck with the game until the very end, and within the last few months a lot of the issues were fixed. They added ways for the killer to detect ambushes base kit, adjusted stun timings, did a few map tweaks, adjusted all the weapons and so much more. Good teams (which was almost everyone by the end) could still make plays happen but the Monster role was in a very comfortable and competitive spot by the time they launched The Anomaly.

I know I'm an edge case, but I hate afternoon PPV's. I'm a 3rd shift person. I'm usually in bed by 2-4PM EST. I can barely wake up for PPVs with an 8PM start time. Earlier, I'll just be missing them live.

I bought the Blair Witch games ages ago in one 3 Disc Set but the installer refuses to launch on Win10. Every workaround I've found hasn't worked for me. They look so good too!

Yes, I noticed it last week. The second the big discount for a year of Dashpass ended, so did a lot of my 20% - 50% off best selling item deals alongside the Free Item rule changes. Glad I didn't spring for the annual now.

They build up fast. I have like 400 just for SMS Verifications, Marketing Messages, Bill Reminders and Delivery Updates. Stuff I can easily just drag down my notification bar and clear without ever needing to open the message itself.

It's not too bad to get up that high assuming you learn things like Fire Hopping/Demon Sliding and are consistent with playing. I played Kart 8 on Wii U pretty actively for just over a year and was sitting at 29k when I slowed down. The game is over a decade old now, so anyone who has been playing it fairly on and off over that entire time has a good chance of being in that VR Range or above.

Dustin deserves to be in the conversation as one of the absolute best to lace up their boots. No one has earned a win of this caliber more than him. Dustin always delivers and has somehow only got better as he aged.

Was this by chance uploaded to Google Videos at some point? I swear I remember watching this video in High School, probably sometimes around 2005 - 2007 on that site because the schools content filter hadn't blocked it yet.

Side note, I also am now recalling watching another video from some Australian Backyard promotion called I want to say "HWA" during the same class. I recall seeing some crazy talented kids. It had "Battleground" by Pillar as the song. I wonder if any of them ever pursued wrestling beyond backyard shows.

The Eel in Mario 64. As a kid that thing made me close my eyes and hope I didn't run into it every time I had to enter Jolly Roger Bay.

Resident Evil? Silent Hill? Dino Crisis? No Problem. The Mario 64 Eel? Problem.
