The Wrestling Topic

She's the worst for sure, Knox is practically a zombie but at least he's not out there trying to get himself over. I saw the Acclaimed making an entrance a month or so ago and she was reacting to the rap and it was just obnoxious, it's not about her and she shouldn't believe that it is. Her over the top movements and goofy facial expressions make it all worse. I don't know if you've ever seen that podcast or whatever it is that she and Schiavone host together but it's pretty clear she's in it for herself and wants the spotlight on her.
You mean the fact that AEW and wwe had lower numbers last week?

Small drop for Smackdown, embarrassing drop for Rampage.
 
NXT and Rampage basically do the same rating so I guess Rampage is going to die as well right? sad since that's a show featuring AEW's top talent and NXT is WWE on the job training, hell it's a step below that really it's just training lol.

Yes Rampage on that timeslot is likely to die or be moved.

NXT used to have the top stars before it became a joke.
Hopefully it's death is sooner rather than later.
 
NXT is about making stars and Steiner will likely be the biggest one to come out of NXT since it started

NXT is nothing more than a training program for future stars it's NOTHING like a real promotion and acting as if it's going to die is hilarious, even if the tv show goes away at some point they'll still be doing the training. The fact that WWE got USA to pay them to air NXT at all is crazy.

It's doing 600k+ for a developmental program. If anything it would be moved back to just being on The Network but that's not happening.

It was a super indy there for a while and constantly outshined the main roster ppvs. Anyone who disagrees clearly didn't watch. Trips and Co did it right, and I'll try to watch the war games but not expecting much tbh

They are still putting on quality matches.

Just wish they would dim the lights during matches and it could do with another 4-500 or so more fans for better atmosphere (though the crowd yesterday was really into it)

That's the thing it wasn't supposed to be an indie promotion it was supposed to be getting people ready for the main roster, they had people in their thirties there for years and that isn't what it was designed for to begin with.

No it wasn't.
It's super indy(s***) now though.
It outshined the main shows because of how high quality it was.

What the show these days is pathetic.(but that's wwe as a whole)
 
Andrade was hurt and had fire on himself.
You can see it in the clip. He clears the table. You can also see the marks from Cody practicing the move(why not wear a shirt for that)
He has 0 fire on him.
 
Andrade could not take that spot... you cant go face first into fire

the execution wasnt the issue, the move that was selected was. Still you are all just nitpicking, there are many moves in wrestling where the applier of the move gets the worse of it lol it was still an incredible spot and Cody is either trying to be liked by putting his body on the line or he is gonna use this to turn heel ("i put my body through hell for you people and you still boo me", something like that)

The execution and the move selected both sucked so did trying to include his wife that nobody wants to see again, this ego trip is ridiculous. There was no reason for a spot like that, wasn't Cody just in a feud with another guy? why did this need to go to a flaming table already? The reality is Cody just sucks, he's never been much good at anything other than missing moonsaults from cages. A regular superplex would have been so much better than this and it would have been easier to execute and done faster too, they didn't need the fire at all. It's not nitpicking when you see people doing things that make wrestling look more ridiculous than it really is.
