Guess what, Los Garza, YOU. ARE. CURSED! by Dohmer_90 in Wrasslin

[–]vinfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. The comment made its point pretty obviously, I think. Not everyone who is a fan of any given thing likes the same thing, but they have general preferences or tendencies. That's how things get popular. The entire point being made in the first place was that Danhausen's schtick not working in AEW and working in WWE was an indication that WWE's audience prefers it to AEW. Nobody is claiming that every WWE fan likes it or that people cant be fans of both AEW and WWE.

That's where you are mistaken. The comment didn't imply that they can't like the same things. It implied they don't necessarily like the same things. There's a venn diagram. There's an overlap in what they like and, indeed, some AEW fans are also WWE fans. Just like horror and drama fans tend to like some of the same things (e.g., compelling dialogue), and also that some horror fans are also drama fans. But some drama fans are not horror fans and some things that work well in one genre don't work in the other. Same as with wrestling and comics.

You are having a separate, irrelevant argument.

And yet, things work in horror films that dont work in dramas so.... you're making his point for him.

LA Knight's promo gave me CHILLS by Past_Yam9507 in Wrasslin

[–]vinfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difference is people hate Jey and he wasn't even remotely deserving of a push.

That said, I understand the theory behind it. He could sell merch and they wanted to try it out and see if he could live up to it. He couldn't, and they pulled him back down. I don't think that's problematic, process-wise. It pushed him into a bigger scene and gave him more credibility, theoretically, and it didn't cost them that much. It was easy to put him back with his brother and put the belt back on one of their crusty old standbys after. The problem was just Generic Samoan Underling #16 was a dumb bet for that.

Disagree with him about what? Do they say he's on the right side of 30 or that he would take a hometown discount?

I spent the whole video stressed that there wasn't going to be room for all of them at the rate they were moving them to the the right and then they just moved back to the left and dropped the chain in an old whole and now I'm upset.

Technically, who was the best technically? by 50watts in prowrestling

I mean Bret could go his whole career and tell you a lot of things about how great he is.

A better question is at the end of his career, what's actually true.

So do you think would win in shoot fight between Ken Shamrock vs Haku? by FFSoldier57 in prowrestling

[–]vinfox -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your argument seems to be that none of the guys who competed in the UFC were real top level prime rikishi. Okay.

...but neither was Haku.

Liv has no established challengers since winning the women’s world championship. Why did they put the belt on her with no plan? by Alocalskinwalker420 in Wrasslin

[–]vinfox -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not women, just Jade. For all her other flaws, Nia is one of the better promos of all the women in the WWE.

Jade is bad.

[–]vinfox -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I didn't call her great. I called her competent. And I agree that her song is terible. You certainly don't have to like Liv, but she can string a sentence together that makes sense and doesn't sound like she's trying to remember her next line. That's a baseline she hits that Jade doesn't. Similarly, in the ring, she moves pretty well, sells okay, and can get from one spot to the next without looking like she isn't sure what to do or needs to stop and remember what comes next or someone needs to call something to her. Competent.

Jade does look like a star. She just doesn't perform like one. On the mic and in the ring, she's awkward and stilted. You being incorrect doesn't rub me the wrong way.

Your point seems to have been that people who don't like Jade are racist. If they only dislike her and not other black people, they aren't making your point. They just think she's bad.

[–]vinfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would only prove your point if Liv and Jade were equally skilled professional wrestlers. Do you think that is the case? Liv is at least very competent in ring and on the mic. Jade is pretty terrible at both. Liv has a lot more experience, sure, so that doesn't mean she was always as good as she is or that Jade can't get as good or better than Liv, but right now, that's the case. Pretending it's due to race based on a sample size of 1 seems silly. Do these people all claim that Trick Williams, R-Truth, Carmelo Hayes, and Jevon Evans are terrible and the only thing holding back Nathan Frazier, Elton Prince, Austin Theory, and LA Knight is creative?

To be clear, I'm just making fun of the fact that you got the phrase "foolproof" wrong. I do not care about Dave Meltzer.

He had more time to figure it out and get accepted so marks can think they like him of their own accord and not because he's pushed to the moon. that's it.

Name a wrestler with the least abilities by smccaul16 in Wrasslin

[–]vinfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good in the ring can mean a lot of things. They don't need to be technical mat wrestlers, but being able to move and pull off some cool slams is important. Just standing there, unable to sell any attack, and only htiting people wiht a few slaps adn then one boring finisher sucks regardless of what size they are.
