Collab Video Incoming!
Added 2024-05-20 00:10:16 +0000 UTCCalling all Patrons! I have a collaboration video I'm recording this week with someone I've looked up to in the WWE creator space!
We are going to be reacting to your questions or hot takes, whichever you want to submit. One submission per comment. You CAN send multiple comments.
The ONLY requirement is that you try to submit a question that would be interesting to see the differences in answers between a One Year Fan and a 30 Year Fan.
Not all submissions will be used, but we'll be looking for the ones that seem like they would be the most interesting for those two types of fans to tackle.
Comments
What have been the biggest changes within the WWE in your time watching? Whether that be style of wrestling, production, types of performers, etc.

2024-05-21 18:24:39 +0000 UTCIdk if this is a hot take but aew need to fire all the old wrestlers, there’s no reason Jeff jaret should be wrestling in 2024. People like Jeff jeret, sadly Jeff hardy, ric flar, edge, Paul wight, rvd, and billy gun. Aew roster is so deep with wrestlers like okada, osprey, Kenny, bryan and jay white just to name a few. STOP RELYING ON OLD TALENT.. please

Phillyman!!
2024-05-20 15:30:12 +0000 UTCI think it would be fun to see you try to guess what the other eras of WWE were like, their main players and when they happened just based on the name. Your guest can then catch you up once you have answered.

2024-05-20 07:46:29 +0000 UTCSimply, why do you love wrestling? What led to you getting hooked on it and what keeps you watching after 30 years?

Nate Cruz
2024-05-20 04:19:24 +0000 UTCWhat are both your opinions on the MITB breifcase and the stories theyve done with it? Do you feel like a cash-in champion feels less than one who earned it traditionally?
Finalwolfe
2024-05-20 02:13:57 +0000 UTCWhat is something you miss from the Older Era of wrestling that you want added to the Modern Era? What is something that Modern Pro-Wrestling does better than Old School Wrestling?

2024-05-20 01:59:05 +0000 UTCWhat's your opinion on how wrestling has evolved and looking back at the different pace or storytelling wrestling has had before comparing to now?
Angel Rodriguez
2024-05-20 01:58:46 +0000 UTCGlad you like the AEW product but it’s a business not focused on making money or being successful. The moneys not the issue I’m glad a lot of guys there are getting a check from the money mark. Rihos getting $400k how can you get mad at that she doesn’t have to do anything. But that style of wrestling that is popular with only like 700k people isn’t gonna make money. It’s shown it hasn’t the past few years look at what’s coming up with AEW having to run in Arlington, TX for like 5 events in a smaller building. They wouldn’t be there if the style of wrestling that the people in the elite crowd do was accepted by the mainsteam.

2024-05-20 01:47:21 +0000 UTCI disagree with this. I was a die hard WWE fan until about 2011ish or so.. Personally I have found the product pretty much unwatchable since then. I went years without watching televised wrestling until AEW started up and then it was like 'Thank God, there's good wrestling on TV again.' If AEW isn't your style that's fine. But for a lot of us it is. As for wrestlers trying to 'make money' lets face it... Most AEW top talent would be taking a pay cut to go work for WWE. I don't think you need to worry about wrestlers making money. Tony Khan is making sure his talent is WELLLLLL taken care of.
Zach Faulkner
2024-05-20 01:36:02 +0000 UTCAs a newer fan, after hearing of the tragedy, do you think you can watch matches of Chris Benoint and can an older fan still watch them? I fell I can separate the two but I know a lot that can't.
James Hunter
2024-05-20 01:26:37 +0000 UTCFavorite segment of the bloodline and favorite segment of DX?
Phillyman!!
2024-05-20 01:18:47 +0000 UTCThere's this saying going around "enjoy all wrestling" that needs to be stopped. I feel a lot of wrestling now has storytelling done well and the athletic struggle is beliveable but there's a lot out there that isn't. There's a lot of wrestlers who buy into what the internet marks want which is this super fantasy world of a million moves and kickouts. For example, Orange Cassidy a few weeks ago on AEW got piledriven onto the steel steps outside and was up within 15 seconds. That isn't good storytelling or a beliveable athletic struggle, that's doing fake stuff for the 100 or so marks who'll give you a good comment on twitter. More wrestlers need to start trying to work to become more noticed and make more money not cater to a niche audience who'll give them online praise.
John Coffey
2024-05-20 00:59:57 +0000 UTCI think that the Undertaker was the modern equivalent of keeping kayfabe to the fullest. He did not do any or very limited public appearances, he kept his identity and personal life a complete secret to the average fan, in public would act the gimmick down to always dressing in black, etc. Growing up the 2 and ONLY 2 things I knew about this guy was his name was Mark and he was from Texas. Only when WWE did that 5 part documentary on Peacock did anybody get a peek into what he is like as a person. The fact that he went on Joe Rogan at the time was insane to see and now he's doing his own podcast that's even cooler. You get to hear from him finally about what his life was like.
John Coffey
2024-05-20 00:50:56 +0000 UTCFor you Dporticus. what is your favorite chant? For your collab person. what chant do you miss from the attitude era?
Phillyman!!
2024-05-20 00:34:22 +0000 UTCIf you could repackage any WWE talent with a new gimmick, who would it be and what would you make their new gimmick?
Zach Faulkner
2024-05-20 00:28:46 +0000 UTCAfter winning the WWE Title in 2011, The Miz should have stayed primarily in the main event/world title photo going forward instead of bouncing back down to the mid-card level.
Zach Faulkner
2024-05-20 00:28:08 +0000 UTCNo matter how hard they try, Jey Uso will never be a believable threat to actual main event level talent.
Zach Faulkner
2024-05-20 00:26:52 +0000 UTCIf you could make one change to one current storyline in any WWE show (Raw, NXT, SmackDown), what change would you make and why?
prototype27
2024-05-20 00:22:06 +0000 UTCWhat about wrestling history most interests you? The territory’s, the way business was done in the 60s,70s,80s and onward, or the way different promoters and owners acted like Bill Watts or Jim Crockett?
John Coffey
2024-05-20 00:13:53 +0000 UTCWhat was the match that was the "ah ha" moment for you where you understood what wrestling was, and why people liked it, and would it be a match you recommend for others to watch if they haven't watched wrestling yet?
