He'd start the show with a segment, there would be backstage stuff and then eventually he'd have his match or interfere in the main event. He was the through line to the show.

Hangman is lucky to get one segment a week and it's always with Adam Cole. Adam Cole is not a fucking main guy, this has to stop. Adam Cole is not going to bring fans to the product. He's a good wrestler and promo yes but he look's like a fucking shrunken man, this is ridiculous. Almost all of the main stories are more compelling than the Champions story and I am sick of it!

Adam Page has been horrendously pushed. You only get one first time with a guy. You could see it coming a mile away and it was a bad idea then too. The approach that all your ideas are good makes it easy to stick to bad plans.

Think about how over Page could be if he was having meaningful feuds in the middle of the card, with his own corner of the show. Instead they had to stick to the plan and tell their “masterpiece.”

Page will probably be a heel by the end of the year. Some people will be very forgiving, but imagine what could have been.

Mr. Nerfect 03-26-2022 11:48 AM

Adam Cole is the drizzling shits. I managed to warm up to him as a scheming character in NXT, but without someone cracking the whip and getting him into the gym, he doesn’t even come off like a Ryan O’Reilly in OZ anymore. He looks like a piss-take of professional wrestling.

I have more interest in seeing Bobby Fish and Kyle O’Reilly as singles guys. Get them the fuck away from Cole.

They closed it because it wasnt getting a high enough veiwership to justify maintaining the cost. Yahoo news didnt call them racist. You did.

Are you legally retarded?

Fignuts 03-26-2022 12:09 PM

Fuckin' muties

Mr. Nerfect 03-26-2022 12:10 PM

I wouldn’t call it racist. Does seem to be shitty though. People assume that Tony Khan is a good businessman because he has money. This is another exhibit to submit into evidence that not everything the Khans touch is viable, sustainable or something they’re going to continue supporting.

Yeah that too I guess. Even if they did build him up properly, he still looks like an enhancement talent. And not even Shotgun Saturday Night enhancement talent. More like someone youd see on Jakked.

xrod isn’t the mutie, lol. People called the WWE racist because Brock beat Big E. I’m pretty sure xrod is just applying the same frivolity to the Khans closing down their black news network and putting a lot of people out of jobs.

Of course the reality is that it wasn’t financially viable for whatever reason, and how the network was run has got to wear that. But at the same time, the Khans may have been more involved in it than that too.

I think he looks shittier than that now. It’s been a while since I’ve watched Jakked though.

Mr. Nerfect 03-26-2022 12:17 PM

Fuck, now I’m craving some Jakked.

No, he is. He doesnt have to be, as hes capable of making well thought out posts. But most of the time he makes criticisms that are as cringe as meltzer's denials of aew's flaws. They're two sides of the same coin. They should get coffee together sometime.

Yeah, followed by laughing out loud, clearly a fucking joke. Somehow to you that justifies getting so upset you go full Nerfect name calling? Its cool to give him shit for getting upset, but you are what, righteous enough that it makes it alright?

Christ this place, its like everybody takes turns getting upset over nothing.

I think people take xrod’s extreme points way too seriously. For people that aren’t in the pro-AEW camp, it’s annoying to see the double standards that are applied. I sometimes do the same thing, where I’m not actually intending to defend WWE, but the point is to show those arguments to the people who would make them one way.

At least, that’s what I think xrod’s doing. I might be wrong. The dude can speak for himself. Just trying to offer some perspective that I think might be relevant, lol.

Hey now, I don’t use that word. I will call someone a cunt if they’re being a cunt though. But it’s just colorful language, I don’t mean it to actually damage anyone’s psyche or anything.

Who's upset? I just said its a dumb post.

Who exactly is this joke for? Most well thought out jokes make sense by the way. My advice is to stick to ratings talk which you seem passionate enough about to make competent posts, and leave the jokes to people who are capable of making them.

Mr. Nerfect 03-26-2022 12:48 PM

Just so people know this important news story: Tony Khan has secured the rights to Captain Insano and Paul Wight will be using the gimmick in AEW. This is NOT a joke.

Mr. Nerfect 03-26-2022 12:50 PM

He will have a cape though.

Fignuts 03-26-2022 12:53 PM

Jesus wept

Jordan 03-26-2022 12:55 PM

Sad that that's the only way Wight will get a real pop in AEW.

Funny enough I actually have buyers remorse from Revolution. I could have streamed she show but I paid for it through Sling. I got my money's worth no doubt but it's the weeks afterwards that are making me feel like it was a waste of money.

The conversation spun out from a comment about AEW being able to make stars and WWE being incapable of doing so. With that pretense I think it’s important that we established what we were talking about when discussing what a star is. Besides, there was no discussion on the semantics; you set the definition that we were working with. Then offered examples (baring in mind you could have used anyone on WWE’s roster as an example) that didn’t meet the definition.

I don’t know how to keep this going with you. I am not being an asshole, I just genuinely don’t. I will just say it again: I think Austin Theory is a bigger star than Adam Page. Because being in the WWE means you are getting more exposure. Being prominent there means you’re going to be more famous than someone in AEW.

It is sad to see you sad on AEW, Jordan. Don’t lose faith, buddy. Tony Khan is a creative and financial genius after all.

Mr. Nerfect 03-26-2022 01:08 PM

I wonder how many times Captain Insano has been World Champion in this universe?

Fignuts 03-26-2022 01:12 PM

Probably a lot, sonce Captain Insano shows no mercy.

Not doing anywhere NEAR as good as WWE does, but doing better than OTHER wrestling companies, means AEW is doing better than WWE?!? It is illogical, annoying, and asinined.

That’s your weird interpretation so that you can make up an “AEW BAD” out of nowhere.

Again, literally anybody that can speak/read English can follow the conversation. I left the conversation feeling the way I did; I don’t believe that conversation ended in “good faith”. No amount of trying to explain that the plain words that you wrote meant something different will change that opinion.

It’s not a problem. It’s just my opinion, and something that I’ll be aware of when conversing with you in future.

That “I was just overplaying a fictitious take” thing is straight out of the Noid backtracking handbook, by the way. What a skeevy, dishonest little shit. You are gross. There’s a stench that comes from your posts somehow.

Who is backtracking? Sounds like once you got offended over nothing, you tried to flip it back on me and for some reason Nerfect.

Its not like there are thousands of posts here of me being sarcastic and snarky or anything. Nope, dead serious posts only and ever!

“LOL @ people getting offended! I was totally not being serious!”
