I also really don't like dive spots that don't look painful. When the diver barely touches the guy/guys on the ground and yet the sell it like getting hit by a brick that really makes me roll my eyes.
This is definitely a fair point. It's especially bad when somebody does, say, a throwaway table spot early in the show that is meant to be a major part of the finish to the main.

I realize that most/all matches on Dynamite have their own agent, they usually only have about 5 matches per show so it's good to have an agent dedicated to each match instead of spreading themselves thin. But some sort of pre-show meeting amongst the agents and Tony/Cody or whoever where they can lay out a few key spots to reserve for one match would help tidy things up a bit.
