What a fucking retard. Also you're wrong anyway because I watch AEW every week and saw all three of these guys in NJPW as well which is why I'm able to say what I did in the first place. If you want to talk about people's understanding of things, go have a chat with Okada about ring psychology and how much of a fucking retard he looked like every time he would hit a tombstone on a guy just to pick them back up off the mat immediately after without even trying to go for a pin

Okada doesn't even try anymore.
Kenny is broken down and terrible on the mic.
Assplay can only do flippy no psychology style of wrestling and his voice is grating and his promos are awful as well.

None of them are good enough for WWE at this point and assplay likely never will be.

ospreay in WWE would be a smash hit if paul presented him as a big deal, which he is. not sure if people on here say ospreay wouldn't work in WWE just out of console warring or what. he'd succeed.
i'm mixed on kenny - he's not totally washed but he's 40 and beyond sawdusted, i'm not really sure what they'd do with him. it would be so weird if he just got sent to fight for like the US title or something. i think he'd fail because i don't believe paul would treat him like the star he is.
okada would fail, 100%. lazy. near 40. japanese. too good at the little bits of comedy they let him do. his peak would be a poorly booked IC run and a 3.5 star match with shinsuke.

Ospreay is too terminally online to be successful in WWE, he actually buys into what his biggest retard superfans say instead of reading the pulse of what 90-95% of fans in attendance say and feel. They only chant his name during his entrance, and "THIS IS AWESOME" during the match, because that's all he's given them. He's a tweaker with tunnel vision, it's like he's disconnected from reality after his entrance theme stops playing and the bell rings.

Okada is a bum and can't even be a success in AEW.
Ospreay is just a generic flippy shitter like Evan Bourne or Ricochet and wouldn't move the needle much
Kenny would have the best shot at being successful, but you'd have to never ever let him cut promos, so he'd need Heyman, or to just be a upper mid jobber to the real stars kinda guy like Nakamura

Cheering is distinct from chanting. You have to be a complete retard to not understand that.

Acclaimed, Keith Lee, MJF, Danielson all used to get lots of singing and chanting during their matches. It also happened to coincide with AEW ratings being frequently over 850k/.30 demo. Now AEW fans do victory laps for a one-off 730k/.21 special episode live from Mexico, and now they'll go right back to 625k with 3k fans in attendance.

Going to a show with wrestling matches isn't enough of a draw for anything but die-hards. Ask anyone who doesn't care much for soccer, but LOVES going to soccer games because of the constant chanting and songs and fun, and you'll understand the distinction.

>>18083691
You didn't recognize an Ospreay quote because nobody marked it as such and did the work for you. Are you even a real AEW fan or do you just come on here to talk shit?

- 850k/.30 were the 2023 numbers. AEW has dropped much faster than the rate of cord-cutting in large part because the shows aren't fun any more
- I was mocking Ospreay for trying to get over this retard phrase. Accusing Rollins of "stealing" makes no sense whatsoever

You're just a low-effort loser, that's all it boils down to. It would be one thing to put in high effort and be seen as a gifted malcontent, but you're just a pussy ass bitch who stares at every single post looking for typos or someone who ends their post in an insult so you can say "We don't sign our posts here KEK" or another of your faggy one-liners.

Makes no sense whatsoever as a response no matter how much you spin in circles

I'm 100.0% certain I'm far more educated and capable than you are, despite the occasional typo. What I'm frequently uncertain about is just how much effort others are putting in, and if they're not putting in effort because they're incapable of it (which is not the case here) or because they're massive fucking faggots who care more about their dogshit agenda than they do having any ethics or doctrine they follow (which is the case here)

It all boils down to the fact that you are not an honest person. If you were an honest person who hated WWE and WWE fans, I could respect that, but nothing about you is respectable. There are many WWE haters on Twitter who will shit on WWE all day and night, and do it in a truthful (if highly offensive) way. You are incapable of doing what they do because you are unwilling to put in the work and to give even 1 inch, temporarily, if it means taking back an entire foot moments later.

You cause some casualties every once in a while with an offensive volley, but completely ignore the battle and the war. I could never be as despicable as you because I see larger picture in everything I do.

You talk a big game about how I don't actually watch wrestling, but how about I show you incontrovertible proof that I not only do, but have since long before you initially stumbled on r/squaredcirclejerkoffs or whatever the fuck?

That doesn't make any sense retard, I started watching in the 1990s. My argument has been (and continues to be) that you google everything on the fly but don't actually know/recall much of anything in the moment. I've said random quotes here and other places that nobody bothers to look up because they don't register, but when I say them to you?
>KEK you're quoting 20 year old movies
Literally nobody who isn't a retarded faggot would bitch about someone quoting a popular movie from the 2000s, but when you're a faggot who bitches about everything, that somehow becomes a point of contention: not quoting recent enough movies and TV shows.

It's this kind of fag behavior that points to someone who is perpetually online, but not really DOING much of anything other than being a dickhead. Certainly not learning, committing anything to memory. Nobody (including me) gives a shit how long you've been watching wrestling for, the point is that the amount of effort you put in is indicative of someone who doesn't know shit.

Effort. Try effortposting for once in your miserable existence.

Kenny would have succeeded. He has an undeniable it factor. They'd start with AJ Styles and build out feuds from there.
Like Nakamura, Okada would get lazy, like he is in AEW, when he realized other people are allowed to be stars.
Ospreay would want to work his current style, instead of pacing himself, and saving big spots for big matches. Creative would give up and use him like they did Ricochet, midcard entertainer.

I never once offered or dared or intimated that I would leave /pw/ if [fill in the blank] happened.

You on the other hand openly disparage new platforms like TikTok, aimed at the 18-35 crowd, while ALSO disparaging wrestlers like Cody Rhodes, Drew McIntyre, CM Punk, etc, who are in their late 30s/40s and still being pushed by WWE.

You want to have it all ways because you're a bitch like that. You make fun of the boomer for being a boomer, the zoomer for being a zoomer, and make fun of everyone in-between for not being a boomer/zoomer. That's what's tiresome, the absolute faggotry of it all. You can't just pick one game plan and stick to it.

This is more accurate than you'd think. He does everything he can to avoid being seen.
