The Official Pro Wrestling Thread

[Majin Blaze]

This can be used to talk anything from WWE, AEW, TNA, NJPW, or even the classic stuff like WCW and ECW, NWA, whatever. I just like to see who all here is a fan, or use to be a fan, or whatever.

I currently watch wrestling like every day of the week lmao. Monday-Saturday lol, and Sunday whenever a PPV is on Sunday.

My current favorite is Will Ospreay, all time favorite Chris Jericho. I been watching wrestling like my whole life lol.

I stopped watching WWE shortly after Punk quit. I have watched the last few Wrestlemanias though. Cody's big moment this summer was great.

Don't know if you know, but hell froze over and he's back in the WWE. He went to AEW for a bit but, some uh stuff happened and he got fired lmao.

Yeah I know he went back. Seems like AEW fell apart considering Cody left too.

I mean, I personally still love it and feel like it's bounced back from the problems lately imo anyway haha.

I never watched/followed it. I mean they must be doing okay to still have some big names but WWE is able to throw more money around.

Now throwing more money around I don't know, Tony and his dad do own an NFL Team. So both companies got plenty of money to just fuck around with

He wrestled around here for awhile, and was a top guy at the indie company I would go to all the time, four time Champion there.

Indy veteran Micah Taylor dead at 47 - Slam Wrestling

Michael Sharrer, who wrestled primarily as Micah Taylor, has died. He was 47. He was a mainstay of the independent scene, and spent time in WWE-developmental territories Ohio Valley Wrestling and Deep South Wrestling. The 5-foot-10, 242-pounder was born on May 21, 1977, in Kaneohe, Hawaii, and...

Yeah, but something needs to give. Tony can't do this nilly willy.

You should see a video by Stevie Richards, on how much money Tony spends on... rentals. Yes, rentals. Everything you see on AEW TV is rented equipment. WWE buys equipment and will use them in liquidation.

AEW goes bankrupt, guess what? Tony has to pay entirely out of pocket. What an idiot.

Well considering they are probably about to do two or three times their original tv deal, they should be good. Rumors are like 170 million a year for 3 years.

Anyone here watch the Mr. McMahon doc on Netflix?

I just did. That last episode shouldn't have been released. He said WAY, WAAYY too much without saying anything. People can imply more than what they say. I can infer a lot from what he said.

Most of the episodes are history lessons of WWE, but that last episode...? Ooof. Too much.

Now there's more access to AEW. I don't have traditional cable anymore, so this is good.

Even with me having it, I’ll probably still use Max, because if it’s like the international version that’s on Triller, it will be commercial free on Max, and I would love that.

Anyone in this thread familiar with ECW ?

I vaguely remember it. WCW seemed more prominent next to WWF/E when I watched in the '90s.

I watched a few episodes here, and there. Taz was pretty cool.

Perfectly said here. I switched from WWE, to WCW. ECW is sparse here and there.

I watched WWE for Stone Cold Steve Austin. Huge fan. Love the art, even. Austin's mascot is actually the skull. Sometimes cartoon-y in art, sometimes serious in art.

WCW is basically a nWo show. I watched because of it. It was basically a syndicated show every week.

But WWE's Attitude Era had almost everything, every story, every gimmick, every roadmap. I think that's why WWE beat WCW, finally. It was just right place, right time.
