THE WRESTLING THREAD: BROCK LESNAR HAS ENTERED THE CHAT!!!

This was around the time when I fell in love with Mina. This was in 2022 when Mina faced off against Saya Kamitani for the white belt. Saya botched a Phoenix Splash spot off the top rope and landed on Mina's face busting out her teeth leaving her mouth a bloody mess. Mina was helped to the back then cut a promo with her mouth fucked up. She was out for two months then came back and challenged Saya again winning in the rematch. The incident with Saya was looked at as a breakout point in Mina's career as she came back stronger and greatly improved in the ring. Now she's in the upper midcard of Stardom on the doorstep of entering the main event scene. She's come a long way in two years.

I've NEVER been one to get wrapped up in a wrestler's physique. I grew up watching Dusty Rhodes. Did he have a great physique? Of course not but he knew how to cut a promo and work in the ring and is one of the all-time greats in the business. If we're gonna make the argument that Eddie Kingston could very well be fixing a kitchen sink you can also say Dusty could very well be working at General Motors. People need to get past the whole "Vince McMahon every wrestler has to have a steroid looking physique" narrow minded nonsense and enjoy the show. Kingston is over with the AEW fanbase because the average person can relate to him. His realness comes across in his promos. He's probably one the best promo guys in AEW and as a workrate guy I would definitely say his ring work has improved since he first came to AEW. He's adopted the All Japan Kings Road style which suits him perfectly.




There's some good to the Performance Center but it's definitely not the end all be all. If anything indy talent (especially women) should take tours to Japan to really learn how to work in the ring. The Performance Center will help get you TV ready but won't make you a well rounded wrestler.




Not only that but Lucha Libre is a legit style of pro wrestling with an history dating back to the 1800's. This whole idea that every wrestler has to fit into one particular style or else it's not pro wrestling is retarded. There are many different styles of wrestling. There is no one way to do it. If everybody did the same style that shit would be boring as fuck. Variety is the spice of life. Also, this narrative that it has to look like an actual fight is bullshit! Nobody is doing Irish whips in a real fight. Wrestling is a performance not a fight. It requires cooperation and choreography from both parties involved. To really make wrestling look like an actual fight you would have to book it to look like MMA/UFC and nobody is gonna pay to watch a fake version of that when you can watch the real thing.

Very cringe, but at least she's trying to evolve her character. Not unlike when Earthquake showed as Avalanche or Big Boss Man showed up as Guardian Angel both on WCW TV lolz.

She lost me when she says "if you watch. every single week on Dynamite, you are not going to like, want to miss anything...." though. You can tell she didn't even believe the words coming out of her mouth when she said that.

Yeah, OK.

Yeah I Ain't believing shit that came out of her mouth they really should have her stop stalking for some time because between shitting on WWE and talking about wanting to go back this shit ain't a good look.

and to me low-key its coming off as Earthwake/Avalanche. I Think it could work out at some point but to be she's emulating a character that WWE built. Might as well go back to WWE to do that shit lol.

Remember last week when you asked me if TK would fumble Mercedes and I said you'll get your answer next week? Well, it's next week and already the luster has worn off. Who exactly is Mercedes feuding with here? Julia Hart, Skye Blue or Willow? No direction whatsoever. Consider the ball fumbled.

I saw one guy named Eddie Kingston who looked like the dude who trims my hedges throwing slaps and knees so awkward and slow that the people I was watching with literally walked out of the room. All while the audience goes wild like they're watching one of the all time great matches, this is awesome!...not it's not!

I love me some Sasha Moné but she still fuckin' sucks on the mic. That was atrocious. To be the highest paid women female wrestler and fumble over other sentence. Unacceptable. Her wrestling is top notch but her promos are still bad.

She's never been good on the mic and always sounds hella nervous when cutting a promo.
Her words always comes off as fake and disingenuous.
She clearly needs to be scripted at all times and keep the promos to a minimum and just wrestle.
