It always comes down to odd timing, or "stutter-steps" in the ring. Seems to always be the same thing. Bouncing off the ropes too, looks funny. Almost like they need to loosen the tension so the women can actually bounce into them rather than just right-off them.

Charlotte really should have spent a couple more weeks training and getting used to being in a ring again since she's somehow managed to get worse after returning from her break and not simply because of ring rust issues.

Glory days of my fandom. Had to convince my mom to let me stay up to watch Raw in these days. Sometimes I had to film it and watch it before school the next day. I mean what's the difference if I go to sleep at 10pm or if I wake up at 5am to watch Raw? Either way I'm missing an hour of sleep.

There’s a difference between having fetishes and hiring people based on it to do problematic shit no one wants to see. Quote:
These wrestlers ARE obscure. There’s no way around it. About 300k people in the WORLD have New Japan World. In the WWE he appeared almost exclusively on WWE Network shows, which means under 1 million people. Who would even know how to see Maki Itoh? I don’t fucking know and I am OBSESSED with wrestling. But yes, all 850k people who were watching basic cable and saw a purple-haired Japanese dude do a shitty version of CM Punk’s finisher know the history and origin behind the move. It certainly didn’t make any of them think “Man, I miss CM Punk.” You. Fucking. Idiot. Quote:
But I’m sure Omega just thinks they’re all neato workers. I REALLY noticing the pacing thing with Riho. She was so tiny that it would take her more steps to get across the ring than other people. I can only imagine how that would throw off someone’s timing in the ring, but it just sounded weird. |

I mean, think of how squick it is when folks bring up stuff like Cuties. Or Child Beauty Pageants. Or Dance Moms. Think about the backlash when Izzy the Superfan got chokeslammed by Effy in a match.
Now, just imagine if there were all female promotions in the US that featured girls Izzy's age in under card matches. And the Audience watching these contests were primarily men. The moral outrage would be through the roof. Unless TLC got a hold of the TV rights, then it'd be a ratings smash for them. The thing I just described? That's Joshi Wrestling. It's also why the fanbase of New Japan has resisted efforts to bring Joshi stars into the company, because there are a great number of female fans that don't want to be around perverts. And Japan didn't really have much of a "Me Too" movement, let alone a "Speaking Out" movement. Imagine the things that would have come out if it did. |

That's one thing that's always bugged the shit out of me about women's matches the ropes hardly move when they hit them yet they act like they're being catapulted off them. The 2 exceptions being Jax and Tamina for obvious reason.

The best thing Nia Jax has done is yell about her hole. That's what she'll be remembered for.... and being incredibly unsafe.
Hope it turns into a weekly spot where she yells about it. |

Jim Ross was using the term Sports Entertainment well before 1989 in the NWA, and the WWF was using it in 84 before the Championship Wrestling credits..
Here's them using it in 1985 |

Always liked Sids version of the chokeslam before he transitioned to the more standard version. That version made it less obvious the opponent was jumping due to to how it was done. He's also seen the Paige videos |

State of New York is going to start allowing big indoor events to be possible again starting later this month.
Only requirements are no more than 10% venue capacity allowed for attendance and strict COVID-19 protocols have to be followed. Quote:

Big rumor going around the television & media industry hints that a potential merger between NBCU (main home of WWE) and WarnerMedia (home of AEW) might be more likely than previously assumed.
Rumors of this potential merger date back to early 2020 but NBC has been shopping their Peacock streaming service to other notable players in the streaming market in hopes of forging a deal that would make Peacock a lot more competitive against Disney+ and Netflix. They already tried to pitch a deal with ViacomCBS but got rejected. Also NBC's Peacock sub base is supposedly very deceptive since out of the 33 million total subs, only about a third of them are monthly pay subs that use the service regularly. Only issue is any potential merger deal between NBC and WarnerMedia likely wouldn't happen until next year at the earliest according to industry experts. https://www.theinformation.com/artic...ermedia-merger |

Was Cena nicer about it for you nerds while still saying the same thing Undertaker said but he's trying not to hurt feelings again?
