Thread 18236860

This shit is so retarded. I honestly try to give AEW a chance because I like wrestling and want to enjoy different takes on it but All In didn't change my mind from thinking AEW is a secondrate product. I guess i just can't enjoy a show booked by a clinical autist.

What wrestling shows/feds do you enjoy or can you enjoy, then?

I want something like LU again. Why can't Tony be based like Dario. He's like a bizarro Dario where he kinda is creepy like him but not interesting or creative in any way.

>>18236870
>fellow LUchad
Didn't expect that but I fully agree. With Dario at least the booking made more sense.
I still think Tony should become an on-screen GM like Dario but make him completely coked out and when he doesn't like a result he comes out with a mic in hand angry as fuck with white powder still on his mustache and then he screams THIS MATCH NOW RESTARTS IN A NO DQ PERRO RING THE BEEEEEELLLLL

Sadly LU doesn't seem to be that popular in the US, people prefer to have a live show instead of a wrestling-themed tv show. I for one like both

>>18236876
God that would make AEW so good. Have Tony slowly descent into madness and randomly do shit like the wheel of misfortune. He can still do his random dream matches but this way it would give it intrigue and make people actually want to check out the weekly shows. I get the idea of wanting to make in-ring the focus but there is ways of making it much more interesting than they are

They kind of teased that during MJF's reign when he was fucking around with Cole. I can't find it but I recall both of them standing in front of his door and hearing him scream through the phone only to open the door and he's all smiles and "hey guys!" and shit.
He could just as well do it for "the sickos" as well as Dario was doing it for the temple fanatics when booking shit on the go.
AEW unironically needs a proper onscreen GM. Not Christopher Daniels who's not even there most of the time.

Even if you look at yesterday's main event, which was good imo - imagine people interfere on both sides and Mox gets a "fluke", then a completely coked out angry Tony comes out, screams at them, tells everyone to get the fuck out of the ringside and the match restarts, whoever interferes gets FIRED

>>18236914
if Kenny had won, they wouldve used the AEW standard rules as they were used by the AEW International championship, this makes perfect sense and is cool, edrones are just dumb

>>18236860 (OP)
k

>>18236860 (OP)
this is the sort of thing Tony does since he started inverting the booking

>>18236903
too on the nose, hes playing this role right now and everyones getting worked by it thinking its real lmao based TK

>>18236932
this was during MJF's championship reign I believe, a bad time in AEW's history. He has clearly rethought and inverted again, switched back to his original style because brother im thinkin the feeling is restored

>>18236946
Nah, that inverted shit was like 2021/22

>>18236860 (OP)
>the unified rules of AEW explicitly allows outside interference
>the continental rules of AEW are not part of the same rules of the same company

>>18236951
MJF won in late 2022, that news article is from jan 2023

>>18236961
its not allowed youre just not going to get fired for it

>>18236971
So Tony is fine putting the belt on someone who didn't deserve to win it and won't give them any repercussions for it? So is Tony turning heel or is he just retarded

>>18236971
>the same offense in the same company has a two tier punishment system

>>18236981
So everytime theres an interference the match should be restarted? People backstage can see whats going on, whats the difference? this is wrestling 101 youre just dumb i think, im sorry bro im trying to help you here

>>18236989
yeah the continental classic is a more honorable contest with stricter regulations, where was this complaining about the ROH pure title? That had a different ruleset

>>18237012
not restarted but if you are gonna bring it up at the press conference as the owner of the company, wouldn't you condemn the heels for ruining the match with shenanigans and not winning the belt in a legitimate way and maybe set up a rematch where interference isn't allowed? Tony is fine with heels cheating to win and making his company look like a joke in kayfabe?

>>18237041
>Tony is fine with heels cheating to win
yes, as is every other company in the world, as it is at the referee's discretion, if the ref doesnt see it, it doesnt matter, this is literally how wrestling works, Tony mentioned this in the scrum and im failing to see the problem

>>18236876
>>18236903
>>18236923
I loved Lucha Underground too, but you guys are massively overrating Tony's acting and promo abilities. He can't do what you're suggesting. Yeah, it does sound great, but he could never pull it off and it would only come across as awkward and cringe as fuck, just like everytime Tony is on the mic or even just in front of a camera. He's got negative charisma.

>>18237072
worked by tonedog

>>18237076
I got "worked" into believing Tony is a terrible actor that should never appear on TV because he exposes the business just by standing there? Yeah, that makes sense.

>>18237094
yep

>>18237065
The referee's decision is final but it still illegitimized the winner of their new undisputed title. He isn't the undisputed winner because he cheated to win. It was dumb of him to just handwave it away like this in kayfabe.

>>18237102
so are you just complaining about a heel cheating to win now or what

>>18237119
I'm complaining about Tony being a shit owner/booker with retarded explanations that make his booking decisions look worse.

>>18237124
because he got a heel to make you upset? heel is bad guy in wrestling terms btw ;p

>>18237129
So Tony is turning heel? That's the only non-retarded explanation here.

>>18237072
He doesn't need to be perfect at it. And well, you get better once you work on something, usually.
And as I said, it could've just as well be a different ACTUAL ON SCREEM GM (NOT DANIELS) who could be presented as Tony Khan's right hand

>>18236860 (OP)
just turn off you brain bro

>>18237133
how is saying "I would fire you if you did that under a different ruleset" turning heel and handwaving the decision when it was the referee's decison to make? Every time theres an interference the boss should march down to the ring like Vince when he blew his quads and make sure the ref knows whats going on? tell it to aubrey for being a dumb bitch, this is wrestling 101 and youre a worked idiot lol

>>18237145
just turn on your brain bro, it makes perfect sense

>>18236860 (OP)
It's all part of the show brother, Omega Okada 6 at Wembley for Forbidden Door LFG

>>18237140
Daniels could do it, they just need to present it in a more official capacity, better him than Samantha tha bomb and you know Ricochets gonna get her in

I really hate this terrible way Tony tries to maintain kayfabe because you can see the character switch and acting is so bad

>>18236860 (OP)
>I'm too fat and retarded to understand simple rules and need to watch complete watered down slop for children otherwise I get angry and can't enjoy anything

>>18237289
I'm a day one AEW Chad, and even I think it's retarded that Don could pull a referee out of the ring and stomp him unconscious, and then have Aubrey run out and just start calling the match like she didn't see that shit backlstage. Do they keep spare refs blindfolded in a kennel until some red like goes off to release on of them like cattle, and they run down to the ring? What is the deal?

>>18236860 (OP)
I mean, he fucked up but if this is the reason you hate AEW then you probably don't want to like it anyway.
I don't understand this need people have to hold a fake sport to logical standards. It's hilarious how people are willing to suspend disbelief when it comes to companies they watch and completely lean into heavy nitpicking when it comes to companies they've decided they hate.
Yes. It's bullshit. Tony shouldn't do this. But pro-wrestling has always been full of this type of bullshit and, at the end of the day, if perfect logical consistency was what I was tuning in for I probably wouldn't watch pro-wrestling at all there's always going to be stupid shit, there's always going to be botches, some moves are always going to look fake, and there's always going to be something to criticize if you look hard enough.

>>18237140
>you get better once you work on something

But you still need to have a talent for it. Tony clearly does not.

>>18236946
nah if you pay attention to the shows the booking is still inverted for sure. The columns are still where the rows were say back in 2020.
