After saying you meant main event talent you still turn around to say shiiit like this just for the purpose of arguing blindly.
Some one like Jey was a midcard level talent and he beat Roman and its been up from there since. There are many more examples. No dey argue rubbish.
If you have plans to elevate that midcard talent like Fletcher who beat Ospreay, Tiffany who beat Becky then went on to win MITB/World title no issues. However, in a scenario like Maxxine who beat Becky, but got squashed by boring nattie(who isn't going anywhere herself ) it becomes a waste of time.

in rankings they may be midcarders in that moment, but they'd have main event in TALENT or performance for them to be allowed to beat a main eventer. Hence I said backstage judges should be instituted. Back in the day, they'd hurt you for real to see if you were fit to.
Isn't it booking(wins,feuds and promos) that make those maineventers seem like a big deal? A guy like Drew can have all the tools but the booking may not be on his side.
Also, What's your take on the continental classic where maineventers lose to midcarders?

ValeeLove:
"main eventer" in this context is not in rankings but in talent. You have to be a main event talent to beat a main event talent.
How will the midcard talent get to mainevent talent to beat a mainevent if the midcard talent isn't allowed to beat a mainevent talent grin. He can't become a mainevent talent if he beats up only midcard talent.
See Fletcher/Ospreay, Swerve/Joe, Drew/Lesnar etc

my argument was not about a possibility of a bad business, but your CERTAINTY that it was bad business that fueled them. Forget about Triller, the original quote was Paramount. I said "or it is innovative", and you replied "innovative indeed" claiming CERTAINTY that it was due to bad business. The very act was innovative regardless whether that was the original reason or not, let's know that.

Again, "innovative" can be used to define a personal growth and major change, regardless whether it's been done before elsewhere. I think that's where the problem in your arguement lies.
There was nowhere in my argument that I cited bad business as reason for AEW losing its TV deal . You can read my comments again. Innovation was related to your comment about Tony launching the app.
I cited TNA which also had an app for years.

Nowhere in my argument was directed to Paramount striking them off for bad business.

As regards the airstrike statement.
Can you blame me if I point to new ownership reneging their deal?

AEW has a TV deal with WB.
WB(saddled with debt) is being bought by paramount (which will incite 79bn usd debt).
There'd be a merger and acquisition.
Many programmes and brands will be casualties.
Isn't it dejavu as the WCW deal?

I didn't say praise her, give her her accolades by admitting you misjudged her by calling her proud and saying she won't put anyone over. Will you do that?
I will not because she didn't put those wrestlers over. They merely reclaimed what was lost in the first place.

no dey lie again, you dey hear me so? Abi no be you be Samistry?👇🏿 "Airstrikes his TV deal", in other words insinuating that AEW is doing bad business and it won't be profitable for Paramount to continue to promote the show. When I countered that argument you immediately swooped in with Triller forgetting that argument has holes in it as it didn't concern TK. Now you're acting as if you were just critiquing the streaming site and not actually AEW. If it had nothing to do with TK why did you bring it up? I caught you right?
When they call you guys AEW cultists, you pick offence but you reason as one. I never declared Jihad against your favourite promotion.

I said Tony had the app as a backup in case Paramount airstrikes their deal.
(Similar happened to WCW when AOL/Time Warner merged). The new leadership didn't care for wrestling.

Did I mention it was about AEW doing badly or lack of profitability in our argument?

You never countered any argument about AEW losing it's TV deal. All you said was the app was innovative.
I questioned what was innovative about a streaming app coming out when competitors had theirs out for years.
I brought up the reason for innovating(launching the app) as you call it was tied to Triller having issues.

Isn't Triller issue related to the topic of discourse which is the app?

The bulk of that argument was centred on this innovation you claim was being brought.
There's a chain of flow and logic in that argument.

At the end of the day.
AEW can lose afford to lose its WB TV deal and shop for another network as Tony has enough funds to support it. No one said it's going to die. Rivalry is good for the business and wrestlers.

AJ losing to Steen, okay. Though he wasn't a mega star then. Ospreay gave that loss as his effort for the company before leaving them (it's a wrestling tradition). Punk and Guerrero, now that's close (he wasn't in WWE at that time). That being said, that doesn't mean they should have done it and they didn't do it multiple times as Mercedes.
I don't want to know the reasons but they all lost to indy talents abi they no lose? So why should we praise Mone like it's a new thing?
Like I said they're many of such instances but you won't know as you never make efforts to research. Your ignorance illuminates beautifully.

bro, you've not made any strong point. A main-eventer should never lose to a midcarder, Mercedes did it. A megastar should never lose to an indy wrestler, Mercedes did that! And still you all (her antagonizers) have blatantly refused to give her her accolades, instead you all choose to continually shift the goal post and give shallow points to try to buttress your claim that she is proud.
I'm not doing back and forth. I have made my point, if you have yours, let's hear it.
What has she done that other wrestlers haven't which demand accolades ?
AJ Styles lost to an indy wrestler Kevin Steen in 2005.
Will Ospreay lost to an indy wrestler, Michael Oku in 2024.
Eddie Guerrero lost to an indy wrestler, CM Punk in 2002.
There are many more cases if you do the research. Those wrestlers didn't go on a vanity spree, requiring supporters like you shamefully glazing it as a novel concept.

their streaming partner not TK. Triller not AEW. If Triller is going out of business how is it TK's (a customer) fault. This is grasping at straws abeg.
I can't shout.
It was a reaction to their streaming partner going out of business. Meaning if Triller was doing fine, they wouldn't have launched their app.
They were already streaming on Triller, what they're going to do on the app is nothing new(streaming).
How is it hard to comprehend? Go practice some Eddie chops against the wall until you get the point.

you take your biggest star and give them an 80/20 loss against midcard talent, then you can critique this.
Nobody forced her to have those matches and belts. TK also paid her for those appearances.
Those belts were nothing more than a prop for her image. The wrestlers were nothing more than a footnote in her quest to be Ultimo Dragon reborn.
What you're doing is blindworship without any room for criticism at the end of the day.
You've gone full APC bro.

it is innovative to them, it hasn't happened before for them. Why will I say it's the first of it's kind when the WWE network came in 2014. My gripe with your argument is you seem to believe this initiative in inspired by bad business or low success in AEW when there's no evidence to back up whatsoever. Grasping at straws, being unnecessarily antagonistic, whatever; this is a good initiative and there's nothing wrong with it.
I'm being antagonistic because you gauffed when by terming it innovative. The news source said it came about as a reaction to their streaming partner having financial troubles. Abi is Meltzer who reported it also antagonistic towards AEW? Never go full sicko.

She is just dropping the titles she unnecessarily picked up
If she wants to put them over, she can lose to them flat without the 50-50 title wins.

fine replace the word 'innovative' with 'improvement', 'success'; same point. Triller isn't owned by Tony Khan is it? Why are you placing that baggage on TK? Stop grasping at straws.
Nobody is placing baggage on TK. You were the one blindly worshipping the streaming app, terming it as innovation. Without looking up what the word meant or the circumstances that led to it.
Last I checked, AEW isn't Pyongyang, criticisms are welcome.

Ilja doesn't do rapid chop, at least I haven't seen it. Show me a video.
An extra point to buttress; do you know that the chops are the only move that wrestlers legitimately do. They hurt you for real with a chop. As it is now, Kingston might be the only one doing it the way wrestling moves should be done. Think about that.
Ilja doesn't do rapid chop. Wetin come be this?
Compare his and Kingston chops in the
vid. If Eddie is the only one doing moves as they should be done then it's a terrible thing to have eyesight. Nuff said.

it's not her fault though. She did her job. You guys said she doesn't put people over and she proved otherwise. Now you want to still blame her for them not being over? You want her to give them an arm and leg in the process or what?
That's why I said the whole belts winning gimmick was a vanity exercise to make Mercedes look good with 69 belts.
Is Red Velvet any more over than before she lost her title Mercedes?
What about Willow and
Mrs. BRUV, Alex Windsor? They are still in tag team purgatory.

The only one whose popularity peaked a little bit over the weekend is Persephone winning back her belt.

Ilya Dragunov and before you change the goalpost stating he works stiff. Nobody has gotten time out or hospitalised from being chopped in the chest.
The casual viewer, you want to accept wrestling as a real sport doesn't believe Eddie's chops have any more effect than a gentle tiddy massage.

if it's not innovative then why is everyone doing it, you can't answer that. At least find something legitimate to critique them and not something that is obviously a good idea and everyone else is doing.
So you expect me to clap like a seal and praise Tony, the billionaire for launching his own streaming app?
Do you even understand what innovative is? Introducing new original methods or ideas.

There's nothing innovative in them launching a streaming app when companies like WWE, NJPW, TNA, MLW have had theirs for many years at this point. That's playing catchup.
It's like saying one praises Glo for launching 5G when MTN and Airtel did it years ago.

News making the rounds cites reason for launching the app is because their streaming partner is financially moribund. This catchup "innovation" was necessitated by duress.

one thing I loved about my argument is it's practical. I tried it, bro it was hard. I dare you to also try it and show me a video of someone who did it better than Eddie. Send me a link and I'll change my stance. Before you say Japan, remember that Eddie has to make sure he doesn't injure anyone - it's not really the priority in Japan.
What manner of warped logic is this? If you can't do a move that looks as good as what someone else does then don't do it. Simple.
