Just checking up on some news about midfielders in the top five league in Europe and i can see Kroos has the highest pass completion percentage. This is impressive for a player that attempt so many passes in a match.

Kroos has really spoiled some Madrid fans with his accurate passes that if he misplaced 2 or 3 passes in a match they will start saying he is misplacing passes anyhow.

The Champions League final comes to mind. In the first half, Kroos misplaced three passes out of many passes.
1. He over hit the pass to Carvajal. Carvajal couldn't get to the ball (height) and it went out for throw-in.
2. His pass to Carvajal was intercepted in the opponent half. 3. He wanted to release Benzema on goal but the pass was blocked by the opponent defender.

These are the passes misplaced in the first half and i don't think he misplaced any pass in the second half. It broke my heart that at half time, some Madrid fans were saying he was misplacing passes anyhow.

He was forced to turn down BP 2 role due to scheduling conflicts with a film he was working on at the time.

I don't see the lies, bro. Perhaps you simply do not understand basic English, or maybe your idiot brain got fvcked by stupid?

On the point of choosing to be deceived, I'd like to point out that some of us simply transitioned from viewing WWE as a sport to viewing it as live theatre.

Kaycee7:
I've never felt so called out in my life and, to make matter worse, I've actually said those things he pointed out in real life.

Ah, thank God.
I'm glad you feel the same way I do about that post.
Atleast now I know I'm normal

AnfieldFan:
He's a phenomenal actor, but considering his personal issues, portraying some one like St. Padre just seems like a weird decision..Will people be able to excuse his real life issues and enmesh themselves into this movie...

I guess how good he acts will make or Mar this story...

I don't know how I feel about Shia portraying him, man's a phenomenal actor but I wonder if people will be able to separate the man from the craft for this particular movie...

Shia Labeouf in Abel Ferrara's "Padre Pio"

St. Padre Pio's story is an interesting one...

We had Father Stu, now this....

As for Shia, he's slowly shedding the persona non grata cloud around him in Hollywood after Honey boy and Abel no too send shaa, he's kinda outside of the whole Hollywood bubble/circle...

I never did. You're misinterpreting the message. The point is enlightenment and education.

You said Jean Grey/the phoenix can defeat Wanda. But i just read on screentrantdotcom that she's resistant to the phoenix force.

ValeeLove:
I laughed a bit while reading this. My intention over the last months was not to make anybody feel bad, but to educate and enlighten wrestling fans and customers. And no, I am not some wrestling expert. I'm not a sport or entertainment guru, I'm even yet to own a business of my own. But in this dispensation those are irrelevant because the things I speak of ONLY require a brain to know and understand. They are commonsensical matters. People say prowrestling is entertainment hence the shinanegans are excused, I say prowrestling is sports and entertainment so the 2 elements shouldn't be neglected. But today there is little to less sport in it, the guys are mainly actors and choreographers; but when we surprisingly see sport(reality/shoot), our attention is gotten in a way that it hasn't over the long times of our viewing. And for many of us, we watch for the shoot angles only. People like Reigns' character because they feel he's real. It might be for a show, but maybe he's somewhat that backstage. It's the same reason CM Punk's pipe bomb blew up in popularity.

What Should WWE Look Like?

Since everyone in that company wants entertainment over sport, I propose 70% of entertainment and 30% of sport. Have a show that tells a movie-like story and ends up as a match in an arena. The story is not restricted to backstage areas alone and the camera is not acknowledged, like a movie. Not the perfect example, but see Adam Page's rise to prominence as an example. The only issue was the stories were told on a YouTube show and not on TV. The Attitude Era did a bit of this, it's no wonder why people liked it. Do this and you'll have your entertainment over sport and it will be ENJOYABLE, unlike the current product. The only downside is that your workers will be referred to as actors or mostly actors since it's more of entertainment.
If you want a real pro-wrestling product of equal emphasis on sport and entertainment without one going over the other, then what you need is a sports-based product(a slang though). What it means is that the story is between a good character and a bad character that is developed in a sports based form i.e like a real sport. There are no movie-like storylines here. No scripts. No choreography. Only predetermination which is based on who draws more money or who is a better performer. That way there is real sport competition going on there and the better performer not only goes over, but makes more money. Imagine how guys will work with this setting.
Yes I know, it wasn't like this in the past, but the truth is:
1. Pro-wrestling was built on the deceit that it was 100% real. So when you viewed trash, you didn't know it was so cos you had been coarsed to think it was a 100% real. That's why it grew and grows less popular as people are discovering the truth. It was also the reason why the movie-like story telling sold, cos if you thought it was 100% real and you saw a bad guy attack a good guy from behind or cheat to win or the Dusty finish or a brawl or anyother movie-like storyline we have grown to accept as normal which back then was a big deal, you were bound to give huge attention to it and their profit would skyrocket. These were the reason for the strict laws of kayfabe, cos if people knew the truth, people's source of livelyhood was threatened. You get it now? Let's give them a fake product, hotshot it, make tons of money quickly, keep our mouths shut and we'll keep on making money; if only they knew the internet was coming. So what happened after the hotshotting, the same thing that happens to anything hotshotted, people get bored of it and eventually see through it. But the funniest part and the irony is that the hotshotting which was used as a scam in the early days of Pro-wrestling is what we've grown to normalize today. It's what you Purpl3 refer to as "shenanigans". It's real shenanigans, it's also trash. That's like saying "we know you deceived us in the past when we didn't know the truth, now we know the truth and we oblidge to being continuously deceived because we never want to stop living in the illusion you created for us and we want to keep on having the same feeling we did back then" and that feeling will NEVER come no matter how many times you watch. Also that example is likened to drug addiction.
It's the reason why my proposal to the wrestling world seems boring. They've been used to hotshotted stuffs so much so that when they eventually hear of simple, true, real and effective methods they are quick to rebuke it and see such as boring. Back then when I used to watch the Ruthless Aggression era and I would watch matches with blood, hardcore and gimmick. And when it was time to watch a regular wrestling match, it felt boring and downright unwatchable. That's a serious problem. You claim to be a wrestling fan and yet can't do without gimmicks, can't do without the movie-like stories, can't do without gimmick matches even though you are well aware that you'll see good wrestling. It shows nothing else, but indoctrination into a wrong mindset about wrestling and only a re-learning and reorientation will enable people to know the truth.
2. Like every other part of life, we simply have to move on.
I'm not saying all about the old-timers was bad. They knew how to work, they knew how to talk, they could act. They were just a bit greedy and maybe confused. "Confused" is the word to describe modern wrestling. Confusion is not just relative to fans alone, even to the promoters. In where you work Purpl3, what does it take to get to the top? I'm sure you're not confused about that or about any other course of venture in life. Professional wrestling is the only venture where it isn't known what makes wrestlers successful, what 'gets them over'. In WWE they even had to make a word for it to show their cluelessness; they call it the "It" factor. What a load of trash. They are as confused as the fans, either that or they are scammers themselves. And that's why I strongly believe the business will go down or be sold in the long run and the signs are showing.
At the end of the day I can't tell you what to watch, but I hope I've if nothing else, demonstrated common sense.

100naira:
abeg I need correct horror movies to watch

Baddestguyp:
I've seen comments on twitter about it...

And what's this about everyone in the world hyped
As if everyone watches it...stop exaggerating...


Anyway I can't wait for HOTD...
But I'm keeping my expectations low cos the last few seasons of GOT disappointed me and I haven't read the books...
Have you read the books?

IbrahimMav:
Bro stay away from my mention please.
Based on what i've seen of you in this thread and the series thread, you're not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed.
I don't like to engage with idiots, no offense.

I support this vawulence even though it was uncalled for
The movie was trash tho
The vawulence is legendary.

Baddestguyp:
yeah...going to GOT subreddit is the perfect place to find objective opinion about what percentage care or don't care about GOT anymore...

Regardless of whatever you think, GOT lost quite a huge fanbase after the last few seasons...
Still it has many fans...afterall it's one of the best series ever made



And those numbers you're bringing...pretty sure most joined at its peak and not recently

Devvy4:
Gabriel Jesus - €52m
Raphina - €75m

only to come and flop in the best league itw

Devvy4:
I’m quite bothered as to why we haven’t signed any attacker as of now, looks like we are about to have another season of total dependence on Benz and Vini for goals, considering the fact that Carlo won’t give the likes of Arribas a chance

swiftz:
Kinda. I used o2tvseries in the past though.

Na man be this
