Vegan heel Bryan was based and led to the crowd pleasing Kofimania. But that same run gave us the goofy โ€œwho killed Roman?โ€ story where Bryan found a bald man with a bushy red beard to stare at Rowan and it was never mentioned again, and the LOLBROCKWINS shit that followed Kofimania put a lot of people off WWE for some time

You know WWE is bad right not because rather than make fun of other companies for having less hype storylines fed drones have been focusing only on how WWE is the "real deal" and everyone else are just "knockoffs". Most of you may already not remember but it was like this back in 2014-2015 or so too when WWE had an undeniably inferior product to New Japan at the time, it's a sign that when the quality of the product just isn't there drones just hang on to the brand name.

LMAO. WWE went from getting Mike Tyson when he was a cultural icon, to two garbage rappers that are niche and only liked by cringe fags. The ICP back in the late 90s were a better known act than Scott or Jellyroll are today, and even ICP were only involved in midcard angles, not plastered all over the shows with supposedly top stars. This is just pathetic.

>inb4 AEW whataboutism
AEW sucks. WWE sucks. Pro wrestling is dead and Steph and Cunter killed it. Tony can do nothing to revive what is already dead.

It's really fucking bad.
I haven't really watched wrestling since around the wcw / nwo invasion thing, last show I saw live was the raw following wrestlemani 18.
Wrestling is really bad now. The talent sucks. Boring stories, botched moves, zero stars. If Roman reigns and cody rhodes are the biggest draws for wwe things are really bad. I think AEW is no better. Probably more botched moves, idk i just watched a little bit of both of them. Okada is cool I guess but I don't really see him being a draw in US. And I hate that gay loser Kenny Omega.

You don't have to like him but he is a rap megastar. Currently sitting at 62.7 million monthly listeners and 27th most listened artist in the world on Spotify.
Jelly Roll however, despite being a rising star, is less popular and to my ears quite trash. Another face-tatted pop/country/rap hybrid wanna-be Post Malone.

It literally wasn't. I would say they were 40%-50% and bad stuff was so bad that it cast a dark shadow over everything else.
> Let's not rose color it too much.
I'm not you or the other anon said New Generation was worse than the current era and that is completely untrue. People still talk about the great (and the hilariously bad) of the New Generation. Nobody will be talking about this era because it's so bland, corporate and forgettable.
