Thread 18742726

Back in the day, you could be a complete bore but have a full career run in wrestling as long as you didn't do a bunch of stupid bullshit. Like a guy who just punched and headlocked his way though his matches was more desirable than a guy who could do all sorts of athletics but had gaps in believability. No one gave a shit if you could flip if in order to get there you had to do a bunch of kayfabe breaking cooperations.
Given the current state of every promotion's in ring product I feel like it was better back then. I'd rather sit though a Greg Valentine house show match than watch guys wait around to get dived on just for the dive to still miss and for them to bump off it regardless.
New bad, old good.

I'd rather watch flips than ultimate warrior being so exhausted from his entrance that he can barely stand

But enough about you, Rovert

just as bad are the cooperative top rope maneuvers like the superplex where they literally get themselves into position for the bump

Different strokes for different folks. Warrior was based back in the day the fact he was gassed didn't matter he could still destroy a dude and get the big pop

>>18742750
That's because you're a retard who has no idea what pro wrestling even is.

When people speak about gate keeping someone out of a fandom, they're talking about you
