Isn't AEW just suffering from what every wrestling show does? The one thing which strikes me is that what's exciting about wresting is what ever is new/interesting. Once the roster has all fueded what else can they really do? I have definitely dropped off in my viewing due to fueds being recycled or just overall not making any sense. Also the sacking or leaving of my favourite talents. Just feels like there was alot of hype about AEW because it had newer things to see rather than it being any cultural shift from WWE. Maybe wrong but it's how i see it.

100% agree

I think Wyatt as the fiend could've been the next taker but they burnt him. Should've kept alexa out of it too.

The real bet is whether Mania 40 will be a Vince McMahon WWE production or an NBC WWE production...

Current thoughts are that Nick Khan (wwe president) was brought in to help sell the company hence why there has been so many cuts of late. The move of the wwe network to nbcs peacock streaming service seems to indicate that they might be the most likely company to but wwe.

Poor Walter. He finally makes the move to the states and now he's a former nazi u boat captain called Gunther

I know but every single time they do something like this it's still baffling despite the entirety of their history.

Good lord, I thought you were joking! Why do they do this?? He was known as Walter on your own TV show! It's like Spike turning up in an episode of Angel and saying "my names sir lord white hair..."

Can't wait to hear Jim cornette rant on this. Walter was one of his few wwe high points.

I just watched the GCW show. US indie promotion manger to sell out the Hammerstein. Mox is champ, Janella, Nick Gage, Jeff Jarrett, Matt Cardona are all the big name regulars. It was well hyped. Outside an awesome lucha match which was cooit was an utter fucking abomination.

Yeah kind of. It’s going for that ECW feel of a great deal of garbage stuff with some pure wrestling and lucha thrown in there. They occasionally do reasonably decent stuff and cardona has been an absolute riot, show was terrible though. They are probably bigger draws than impact and ROH In it’s final days though.

The best GCW thing ever was Matt Cardona dressing up as Vince McMahon for a deathmatch, winning their world title, and calling himself the GCW Universal champion, and referring to the fans, as the GCW Universe.

The match itself was obviously garbage, hardcore shite, but he was a fucking heat magnet.

I can tolerate plunder/harcore matches on odd occasions. But it has to feel like a fight and not a contrived series of spots to get pops. That's the same reason I hate multi-person ladder matches.

There was a class hardcore match at the last ROH PPV between Shane Tayor and Kenny King. That's the only one in recent memory I've enjoyed.

Garbage wrestling is the hardcore bollocks with little to no wrestling component. Usually employed by people who can't actually wrestle, but some of the ECW era guys did have a solid wrestling base. Foley, Funk and Sabu were some of the best hardcore wrestlers because they were genuinely talented, and had a firm grasp of the psychology of wrestling. Then on the other end of the scale are talentless dickheads like New Jack.

Terminology varies because wrestling, but deathmatches tend to be the more extreme side. Light tubes, barbed wire ropes, broken glass, staples to the forehead, all that bollocks. Hardcore matches are generally the sort of thing WWE would term an Extreme Rules match, but like I say, wrestling, so you might still find hardcore matches that are reckless bloodbaths.

Cody v Sammy ladder match is a banger. Loved it.

I've only just caught up with Rampage so will be trying to watch some Dynamite tonight.

Only spoiler I have is

Interested to see how that goes.
