They went public and kneel to sponsors and stockholders so you'll never see wacko shit like Otis doing the stinkface to Kairi

Creative team got filled with writers who do all the thinking for the booker but have no experience as pro wrestlers.
It's why Austin quit wrestling. They were writing shit for him that absolutely would've ruined his career over how un-Austin those ideas were.
It was like the people writing the show both never watched it, and hated wrestling. And then the talent was required to act like they're on a soap opera.

Trashy television is just more entertaining. People have always been addicted to it like a drug. Still are, it's just in the form of tiktok and other social medias now. Unfortunately after Benoit, Vince decided to take the boring corpo slop pill and never looked back.

I didn't get chills when I watched it just now but I felt how fucking good that was. It completely sold you the context of the belt - it is everything. It is your life, it is your wealth, it is everything you WANT as a wrestler. This feud isn't just about two men, it's two hardened, battle hungry warriors willing to go all out just to stand on top. It makes it feel so big, so fantastical, engaging. Even when they brawl in the end it just feels so natural. And when I think back to recent WWE, I can only wonder why they can't seem to redo it. And don't say some shit like they're too soft or some dumb boomer shit, there has to be SOMETHING tangible to change this. Is it the cameras they use now? The lighting? The aggression? I can't put my finger on it. I'm sure I could if I feverishly watched a lot of videos and compared though.

Wrestling IS trashy TV. Trying to present it as a legit sport or something less trashy simply doesn't fit it at all.

Yep, before Benoit and after Benoit are two very different eras

WWF first went public in 1999
