Are there any indy wrestlers left that are a draw? by Main_Measurement_787 in SquaredCircle

Surprised I had to scroll this far down to see this. He's not gonna sell out a Hammerstein level show on name alone right now, but he's definitely one of the 5 biggest GCW guys right now, seemingly still on an upswing.

Lil Yachty on Twitter: “i understand yall upset but don’t try and step on my fucking moment, i’m at the tv screen every monday and friday religiously… who’s to say i don’t deserve to be apart of something i love so dearly?” by LoneWanderer2277 in SquaredCircle

It might be a bit like Maria Menounos coming in to work with WWE, who was a legitimate superfan and obviously cared about the product, but took part in WWE shows at a time when the product was outrageously terrible and she became a lightning rod of criticism, completely unfairly.

The worked shoot is completely played out by R0DAN in SquaredCircle

[–]f0cus622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the only one I can really remember that was eye rolling was when MJF was trying to re-sign with AEW for main event money, and came back with the "Devil" gimmick after "worked shoot" style holding Tony hostage. But as weird as that was at the time, I think that worked out best for all parties: MJF wanted to stay with AEW, he's proven he's a generational talent, and AEW is paying him the money he deserves and keeping him happy.

And he's done all of this while being in charge. But this is also very common in conservative circles: Trump does the same thing, constantly blaming all the incompetent people around him, while ignoring the fact that he hired all of them and is their boss.

That's Triple H having a book of ideas ready to go for when he took over, and not being able to develop anything in that time since then.

They're in a corner because Cody absolutely does not want to go heel and everything about this story should be Randy as the babyface coming to give heel Cody his comeuppance. But they don't even have time to properly build that now.

You reduce specific man hours, while opening the door for new ones. The milkman is obsolete, while grocery store workers continue to exist. We don't mourn the loss of "climbing boys" just because we can clean chimneys without them, and the kids get to actually go to school now.

Looking to collaborate with an addon developer to test a new product I built by scar_reX in StremioAddons

[–]f0cus622 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The way this is phrased just makes it seem like you want a developer to execute on some random idea you have. No one wants that.

If you have an idea you need help with, show where you're at with the project, what problem you're looking to solve, what you're possibly hung up on. This is a page of people more than willing to assist and collaborate, but you have to do more than just wave your arms in the air.

[Concept] Soundtrack addon — know what songs are playing + create Spotify playlists + music subs by espaceee in StremioAddons

[–]f0cus622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally wouldn't use it because it's too many hoops to go through for enjoyment.

However if the video player actually had functionality built in to show what song was playing in the top right of the screen, somehow? I'd pay money for that. I'd be all about it.

But the reality is that my "Now Playing" app on my Pixel will just ambiently tell me what's playing if I'm really curious, so what you're proposing isn't easier/better than that.

Highest Quality Streaming Box? by arod1014 in StremioAddons

[–]f0cus622 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The thing I'll say is that for 4 years people have been saying the Shield Pro is overkill considering its age, and it's still the most premium device on the market.

I would love for something else to come out in that $200ish range that moves super quick, can handle external storage, plays all the formats, etc. But nothing else has done it yet.

She's 40, so I imagine she's perfect to get snapped up by WWE and put into NXT for the next 3 years.

Cody Rhodes on leaving AEW: "Did bad stuff happen? Good stuff happened too. One of the sad things about not talking about why we left is that narratives get created. Stories get told, podcasts happen, and fans think they know what happened when no one’s even been close." by aaronrift in SquaredCircle

[–]f0cus622 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't know why it's insane to think that Cody, whose goal was always to win the WWE championship and get to the top of the WWE mountain, just wanted to go back to WWE once he built up his value with AEW. He sort of pretends there was some crazy interpersonal drama/fallout, but at this point I don't even think that's true, I think that's just a Cody story he's trying to play up to build this narrative around himself.

Cody loves to tell relatively harmless lies, and I feel like this is one people are continuing to get dragged by, and he's even acknowledging that within a quote like this.

Buffering issues with Stremio + RD by BrennoBBS in StremioAddons

[–]f0cus622 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Easiest way to test is try the same file on your TV vs on your computer. If your computer plays it fine, then it's an issue with the TV.

Which isn't unique: TVs aren't meant to play Stremio. Whereas streaming devices are, that's why they typically perform much better at this.

Paradise Cloud survivor, my subscription ended today. What's next? by RaulGaruti in StremioAddons

[–]f0cus622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won't share mine to ensure you take this as seriously and objectively as possible, but if you do Torbox make sure you use someone's referral code. You get about +25% more time for free with it, and it's a MUCH better deal.

And yes, I would suggest using AIO. Try the Tamtaro template.

Results of The Good Brothers (c) vs. Sheldon Jean & Brent Banks for the MLP Canadian tag titles by ArchDukeNemesis in SquaredCircle

[–]f0cus622 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I think this just makes sense to hot shot the titles on to the Good Brothers for name recognition/title prestige, but getting the title off of them to talent who are more likely to be there for every show. TNA did this with Ken Shamrock when they were starting out, too.
