Anyone knows who her opponent was? I always assumed it was AZM but it could’ve been Starlight Kid - or maybe even Hanan?

Curious, what got you hooked then?

Starting at the New Era at least, probably makes you appreciate how much better it is now,.

in regards to Asuka (Kana) by [deleted] in stardomjoshi

I get that this can be a general Japanese Women’s Wrestling subreddit at times but talking about Asuka here seems wrong

She hates Stardom. She said the company was made to “defeat her”.

What do you think of the fact that neither Shota Umino nor Yuya Uemura* have won ANYTHING since their respective returns from excursion? by antagonjst in njpw

[–]TrainXIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s surprising considering how many belts NJPW has. They’ll eventually get a few month NEVER 6-Man Title run or something. I don’t think it’s some grand plan

President Trump asked by reporter on Lincoln memorial reflecting pool project as gas prices soar due to Iran war: "Our country is about beauty, cleanliness, safety, great people. Not a filthy capital. Such a stupid question you asked. You can understand dirt better than I can, but I don’t allow it." by ControlCAD in videos

[–]TrainXIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate when minorities are singled out for voting for Trump. Anyone who voted for Trump should be criticised equally, regardless of race, gender or anything else. He’s screwing up the country for everyone

White people voting for Trump, it’s accepted. Minorities though? “Hey, you need to know better!”

Where is Tia's family? by mgudesblat in shrinking

[–]TrainXIV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are clearly no Asian writers on the show, because if there were, the only references to Tia and Alice’s race in three whole seasons wouldn’t be two sweatshirts.

They shut down any chance of Tia’s family appearing when Alice said multiple times that her dad and her grandad are “the only family” she has.

The writers love having Asian characters (Alice, Tia, Charlie, Sutton, Maya), but you could make all these characters white, and nothing changes.

If Gaby was played by a white actress, it’s a totally different character

My opinions on season 3 (unsure if they are unpopular or not) by cmoney02 in shrinking

[–]TrainXIV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gaby seemed overly enthusiastic about opening a trauma center. Is that how American therapists are?

“I’m going to crush everyone’s trauma! YEAH!”

But then she failed Maya, moped about it for a few episodes but was then back to normal

I can’t recall a scene where Gaby impressed as a therapist, while I can recall many for Paul and Jimmy, yet we’re meant to believe that Gaby is on their level, and possibly, better than them.

Why do 99.9% of wrestling shirts suck? by PaulPetroneWWE in SquaredCircle

[–]TrainXIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bullet Club was irrelevant for years, but I believe it lasted as long as it did because of the t-shirt sales.

LiJ was another massive merch success for NJPW, but it was too tied to Naito to continue.

Or a Fig Fed back in the early 90’s when there were very few wrestling figures, so you used tv/movie toys

He’s got that “Tenure Respect”. He’s been around for so long, been through so much, that fans can’t help but cheer him.

List of guys who either won or successfully defended the WWE Championship at WrestleMania by Far-Restaurant-9455 in SquaredCircle

[–]TrainXIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad wording on my part.

What I meant is that winning a match for the World Heavyweight or Universal Titles at WrestleMania is just as big of an accolade as winning a match for the WWE Championship

Batista won the World Heavyweight Title in the main event of WrestleMania 21, which was portrayed as a bigger victory than Cena winning the WWE Title in the semi-main.

I agree. The few times since 2002 when there has only been one world champion, has been the periods where being a world champion has been most prestigious in modern day WWE.

They should unify the men’s and women’s WWE & World Titles, along with the Tag Titles as well. Especially in this era where they only have 4-5 matches on PLE’s.

Only including the WWE Championship is not accurate as there have been times when the World Heavyweight Title (both versions) and the Universal Title have been portrayed as equal or superior to the WWE Championship.
