You
Fucks Need To Stop Whining
That's
probably the best way to describe what I'm about to write, the title
of this thing.. I've watched on Facebook and Twitter all the back and
forth and back and forth and back and forth between NXT and AEW,
which is better, how they're better, why they're better, etc etc
etc.. Yet here's the thing that really stands out with me when it
comes to a lot of current era marks.. They whine, cry, bitch and
scream they want something different, but when they DO get something
different, they go and complain about the different they get.
You
fucks need to stop whining, period.
My
God, you have more wrestling available on TV, YouTube, streaming
services than you'll ever be able to watch in your lifetime, almost
every week if you know where to look.
Now
me, I don't hold an opinion on who's better, I just go on what
appeals to me and I fully admit I'm not an NXY fan.. I don't slam
them or say they're weaker than AEW, the way they present their
talent which is in effect, the "WWE Way", has always been a
turn off for me. Which is why I haven't watched anything WWE on a
regular basis in over nine years and counting, and just glancing at
part of last night's NXT show on USA reminded me why that is.
The
whole "WWE way" of how they present their product, talent,
etc.. just doesn't flow with me.. Presentation , especially when I've
seen a lot of their talent elsewhere before, they got the "WWE
Polish" so to speak, is what makes me different than a lot of
other people. The whole 'WWE spin" of things doesn't jive with
me and I know many who'll disagree but that's fine.. Go ahead.. I at
least seen some of the behind the scenes "WWE spin and polish"
by working for an indy group in the 90's that had the WWE'S training
dojo on their shows. So I saw first hand alot more than a lot of
fans, marks, critics have seen. So my opinion is based on what I
like, look for and have seen.
One
thing I noticed is that people who have been disenfranchised with WWE
clamor and state they want something different. well, they got
something different in AEW. Hell there's something different for them
in Impact Wrestling, ROH, Indy groups all over the fucking world, do
the footwork and find them if you REALLY want something different.
If
you're like me, and most aren't, in that Impact's way of presenting
their product and talent (along with Don Callis's claims he was gonna
rid Impact of the silliness that's plagued them but has in fact added
his own silliness since he writes and books that silliness now)
doesn't give me what I'm looking for and seeing old ECW veterans
there it seems like there's 'something missing' (Oh yeah, that would
be Paul Heyman and how he helped make ECW over this Impact in a way
trying to emulate ECW in a way and coming up short?) Along with the
fact most of what made Impact worth watching talent wise, is now gone
thanks to Anthem Sports just letting them walk on out without even
trying to keep them,.. leaves me with what.. Other than Tessa
Blanchard? Not much to like here.. ROH isn't much better since
they're so high spot heavy in many ways, the level of 'selling' in a
lot of their matches is horribly bad and yes, I'm a stickler for
'selling'. if you no sell a lot, i hit fast forward or go watch
something else.. No selling is an insult to the fan's intelligence
and if you weren't trained correctly in HOW to sell, then you should
go learn how to sell. Selling, makes a fucking difference, hate to be
the bearer of bad news to you, but it makes a lot of difference.
So
now we have AEW, the 'thing' that people wanted to see, that
'something different' that they whined and cried and bitched so much
about.. It's here.. But now that it's here, what do i see? The same
bitching about this as they did on WWE.
"They
should've done this", "they could've done that", "they
should've booked it this way" booking wise.. "Why didn't so
and so win", I mean seriously, you wanted something different,
you got it and now you're gonna complain about the different that you
got? Maybe you fucks should just stop watching if nothing makes you
happy. Or.. iIf you think you can do it better, as I tell every
person who thinks they're the armchair expert.. "You think you
can do it better, create your own promotion and do it better then".
99% of the time when i say that? I get, silence, or excuses.. Mostly
silence.. because the excuses just show that they know they got
called out on their BS rant and are now back stepping..
While
there was stuff that rubbed me wrong, there was enough for me to want
to check em out next week.. To see the one big answer to my question,
Where, do they go from here?
The
only gripe from all the bitching complaining and whatnot I can agree
on, is the commercials.. The picture in picture thing for commercials
and having to endure six to seven of those commercials was indeed
nauseating.. BUT as I said to more than one person, maybe that was a
TNT call and not an AEW.. I've seen some blame AEW for that but it's
not AEW'S TV Network, so how can you blame them? TNT is the one
airing the show and (I assume) getting paid by AEW to have the show
air on their network.. So in the end it's TNT that makes the call on
how the pacing and placing of commercials will be.
Pin
the blame where it belongs, not on AEW but on the network that has
allowed AEW to be aired on that network..
Also,
another note.. While those picture in picture commercials and other
commercial breaks are irritating to you and in some ways, me.. I can
assure you than ANY owner of ANY Indy company anywhere in this
country would be happy as hell, to have them commercial breaks if
they could get the air time and exposure that AEW has with TNT..
Another thought that many have been lost on as well.
It's
only their debut week on TV and people have bombed AEW with bitching
and whining.. Well let's see YOU do better then, do so or shut up..
That simple.. You wanted something different, you got it but yet you
still bitching.. Some fans/marks are really unbelievable, seriously..
In
the end you don't HAVE TO choose between either or, watch both if
you're a fan of both, watch whichever one you like more or, there's
option C which I go for every time and that's.. WATCH SOMETHING ELSE!
For
the idiot and ass clown that's gonna say "A duh, there isn't
anything else", I can surely say, BULLSHIT! I subscribe to over
100 different YouTube channels and there's ALWAYS SOMETHING ELSE! DDT
out of Japan posts videos almost every day, there's a ton of Indy
groups that have channels and post content, do the fucking footwork
and find it if you really want something different. It's not that
freaking hard so why be that lazy?
The
one company I AM, looking forward to seeing? Seeing how THEIR TV is
gonna go? is Billy Corgan's NWA TV Studio Wrestling.. THAT has me the
most excited as their presentation to me has been off the charts
good.. They have ALOT of talent that I like on the roster and it
preserves the history and heritage of, the NWA while bringing it to
the present. There's the option C right there along with the many
channels on YouTube I can access at any given time.. Capitol
Wrestling has a weekly show, AMW out of Kentucky, OVW that Al Snow
now owns, I can go on and on naming groups I can watch on Wednesdays
if i really want to.
So
in the end, the answer is the same as the beginning of this, you
fucks need to stop whining. You have more wrestling than you can ever
dream of having.. Go watch it, and shut the fuck up.
