By WM30 they were finished.
THE WRESTLING THREAD: BROCK LESNAR HAS ENTERED THE CHAT!!!
- Thread starter ArsenalCannon357
- Start date
You right but the thing is Sting never spent his best years in WWE. Sucks he didn’t get a better run but he probably should’ve been more part time then they had him.
Back in 2016 when he was apart of New Japan's "Best Of The Super Juniors" tournament I knew he was gonna be special. He use to do these crazy Darby spots in his matches until Jericho called him up and told him to tone that shit down and work smarter. Once he started doing that his work went to another level. Now that he's in AEW and is gonna be working on a weekly tv show they'll tell him to tone it down even more and only go super hard on the ppvs. They need to preserve him the best way they can.
Why would a WWF/WWE guy, a wrestling icon of Undertaker's stature lose his remarkable WrestleMania win streak to a WCW/TNA guy in his first WrestleMania match? Especially when that WCW/TNA guy is 6 years older than the Undertaker himself?
The win over Taker helped Brock become the "unstoppable force" he was from 2014 through 2020.....The same unstoppable force who helped Roman get to where he is today.
Lolz Sting wasn't going to do all that with a Taker win. I know hindsight is 20/20, but Sting beating Taker would have been a bad move.

Never would ever think Flair would put over Darby.
That’s some dumb ass shit to praise him for too. You don’t want to be the guy known for doing crazy spots.
That's pretty much Mick Foley though. I use to call Foley the "Bump God" because he would take some insane bumps throughout his career. Hell, Terry Funk took some crazy bumps too. His exploding barbed wire death matches in Japan are legendary. Darby is like the new generation of that shit. Dude truly doesn't give a fuck. He's talking about climbing Mount Everest in 3 weeks. Insane shit. If Sting can't get through to him then nobody can.
Yeah Mick had some legendary matches too though as well as was great on the mic but there’s probably a argument for him too.
Finally got a chance to watch the TV coverage of 'Revolution' and it's good to see that the crowd came across well on TV.
A couple of things though:
That's fine and all, but they've got to have coherent storylines moving forward because there will be new viewers watching for the first time tonight I'm sure.
A couple of things though:
- I had no idea JR called the last two matches. They made no mention of it in the arena. They should have had an introduction for JR especially to call Sting's last match.
- I also had no idea Magnum TA and Nikita Kolof were there as well sitting ringside. No mention of Jake the Snake being there as well. That's something that should be mentioned by the announcer in the building.
- I went back and watched some of the matches, especially the Ospreay/Takeshita match. I would say that match is currently leading for Match of the Year. Ospreay will definitely have to tone things down now on a weekly basis in order to avoid injury.
- The Sting match was almost impossible to keep up with in-person and wasn't much easier to keep up with on TV. That Darby spot looks dumber and dumber each time I see it.

One of the goats. Her All Japan run was legendary. Her WWE run was just okay but that was mainly due to Vince not really putting any effort into the women's division at that time. Bull's rivalry fued in WWE was with Medusa (Alundra Blayze). It's cool that they're acknowledging her for the Hall Of Fame. Honestly, I would have Medusa induce her considering she's from Bull's peer group.
Interesting. I need to see it from a different angle and a wider shot. I like the color scheme and the tunnels are back but it looks very basic. I need to see more.
It's very important that they hit a home run tonight.
1. Consitent storylines
2. Good booking
3. Good presentation
Looks like it was a smart move to send Jack Perry to New Japan. There he can work on his craft and come back to AEW a better wrestler.

Enjoy yourself!
It definitely looks good seeing it in motion.
Let him walk. Matt Hardy's AEW run has been weak.
Two of the goats going at it!
This I actually like. Keep JR to PPV's only.
What's crazy about Darby is for all the crazy bumps he takes he manages to never be out for any lengthy time due to injury whereas other wrestlers seem to get hurt and be out for months on stuff that doesn't look that bad.
It's not the best but it's up there. The 1995 match between Aja Kong and Manami Tokyo for WWWA Title in my opinion is the number one women's match of all-time. Aja and Bull had an absolute war in this cage match though. Great stuff. I think I still have the VHS tape of this somewhere in my basement.
