U need to learn intrinsic story telling. He counters moves with his comeback ability while he still has stamina. AEW has longer match length hence the stamina depletes over time until he's unable to keep up with the opponent🤓.

which nonsense is that. Once saw him not selling a pile driver. Received it, jerked up and twisted his neck like it was nothing. I don't want to talk about him.

Oh na story make am dey form base voice e no get? . Who gave him best promo? Daddy Meltzer? U no get flowers. I dn peep your backyard, na devil beans u plant there

he's got a base voice regardless of what you guys say. He shouts a lot, that's all, but whenever he's calm and speaking - like "Cowboy sh!t", like burning Swerve's house, like his promo in Mexico - you can tell that he can talk.
It wasn't Meltzer it was Fightful. And he has been nominated by others in that category.

Do you think Punk and Reigns were legitimately trying to bury the WWE title so they could get to main event Mania?
He went to air his frustration on Busted Open.

Nah, a match between those two was always gonna main event anything Drew is involved in. Funny enough, the world title has always been presented as secondary to the WWE title.

Bronson Reed is injured.

I don't think it's that simple. If the WHC belt has always been secondary, then there probably was panick that they won't get to main event. Also, Cody (potential opponent for Drew) has been presented as a Mania Main event guy in recent memory, so there's that.

Yes, Cody has always been presented as the Mania event working with Reigns X2 (WWE title), Cena (WWE title).
He mainevented with top guys who are all bigger than Drew. There's no way they'd put Cody vs Drew, a match we've gotten like four or five times now over Punk vs Reigns.
We're aren't even sure of Cody vs Drew match as rumors suggest it could be a four or five man match.

I haven't seen World title mainevent any mania since it was reintroduced 2023. It's all been the WWE title, as the bigger guys fought over that belt. Now the bigger guys are fighting for the World title. Mainevent follows the bigger draw.

It doesn't matter what they try to do. You can't bury a man who won't die.
5 years without sniffing a title yet he still delivers when given the assignment and gets reactions.

earned it.
Bet on himself and left when TNA lowballed him and favored ex-WWE talents.
Did good on Indies and NJPW then answered the what if question when he stepped in foot WWE.

Heard Bronson Reed was supposed to win the qualifying match but injury led to change of results.

MJF's wrestling isn't as good as he claims. He wrestles like the Miz, but at least Miz has more action. MJF spends most of the time dramatising, milking everything, being slow and sluggish; it ends up looking like a stage play than a wrestling match. Only time he did a 1 HR iron man match, he left with a crutch (lol). The only reason his matches stand out is because the other guys do the exact opposite (more action, less story).
I'm not taking away the praise for his talents, he does impressive stuff regularly, but his athletism is clearly the weakest part of his presentation.

I disagree with you on this. MJF can definitely go in the ring. Not everyone needsto do the PWG /Meltzer fast paced style. (can't believe I'm defending MJF🙄).

I don't know if he can, I just know his matches are not that impressive. We can't criticize Goldberg, Warrior, Hogan and Jade and let MJF off the hook. I'll say it the way it is. He needs to balance the wrestling with storytelling.

Yeah, it looked like they were surely setting things up for him to win but they should have let El Grande win it instead of Yeet man.

Race is mostly a social concept. That's why the likes of Sol Ruca and Cole Palmer can be 3/4 white and still be called black
