Pro Wrestling - Aew/wwe

Not a bad innings for a wrestler

 

TK is a lunatic, part of me is convinced he’s unwell.

Similar thing happened with Cargill too.

 

Wardlow will be next, and he'll be a huge star for WWE. Had all the momentum in the world last year, massively over with the fans, arguably the best look in the industry and supremely marketable - their own Lesnar/Goldberg/Batista there on a plate for him - and he almost seemed to purposely derail him and piss it all away.

AEW was promising for the first few years but it's on its arse right now. Terrible booking, loads of injuries, lack of interesting stories, and now they're a complete laughing stock because of what's happened with Punk.

 

And with MJF supposedly injured and out for 6 months, it could be the death knell. I’ve stopped watching already, it’s been beyond awful since All In.

Their infantile tweeting about the company after Punk was on Raw was hilarious. They sacrificed the biggest name they’ll ever sign and the only guy to draw a million dollar gate for them for nobodies like Jungle Boy and the Young Bucks. That’s what happens when you let a mark book a promotion.

 

Punk is a liability, they're better without, but AEW is suffering at the moment and I think it's because the roster is too large and title picture confused.
Imho the only reason Wembley did well is because it's the only free unedited wrestling on UK TV.

 

Anyone watching Wrestlemania?

This has the potential to be one of the best shows ever. The build has been top draw, and there are some great matches.

I feel for Bayley though. After carrying the company on her back (with Drew) through the pandemic I think she deserved a bit more of a spotlight.

 

I only watched some fan footage of the final match. Looked awesome. The pop when 'Taker's first bell tolled took me back to being a 13 year old super fan again.

 

It was delightful b*llocks, delivered in the very best way.
