but did you mention the story. Was it good?
So purple doesn't care about the story and I don't care about the matches? I'm starting to see this as a 'you' problem. Whatever it is you're going through, hang in there buddy.

"pigeonholed" indeed fgs...This brother is so funny. Like he and his team vetted, and accepted roles and the massive paychecks that came with them, that actually made him one of the highest paid actors, to ever touch this industry, did he think filmmakers doling that much cash didn't know what they were doing?. They quite knew bro, had the acting range of a snail, but they knew the had a certain "aura" that was a massive BO draw, till unfortunately it wasn't, so coupled with other self destructing factors, the industry quietly eased him back into a premature oblivion...Nobody "pigeonholed" you, Big man...They quite knew, yous was only good as a "brawler" and were happy to give you that role over and over again, and any other role that required any sort of technical acting was reserved for actors with actual talent...I mean this MF, might actually be the least talented, of all the actors that pivoted from the WWE.

Now i seem to be engaging more of "The Critical Drinker's" post these days , and he did a fantastic piece on him last week or so, that succinctly encapsulates the whole thing.

"The Smashing Machine" (2025) is actually one of my most anticipated movies, the trailer looks decent, and easily looks like a script that a good actor can flex plus Benny Safdie is such an underrated indie gem filmmaker, that knows how to bring the best in actors, I mean look at what Robert Pattison did in "Good Time" (2017) and Adams Sandler in "Uncut Gems" (2019)...norm bending all timer performances from both actors in both so if DJ can't smash this, then he might be actually cooked in this industry 😩😩

who's talking about work rate. The inring action is everything combined, combat and storylines. But since it's less your thing, maybe just maybe my postulation about wrestling matches being boring to fans is true.
So you want me to give a breakdown of all these things for you when Meltzer, YouTube and wrestling forums dey there? Am I getting paid for them? How many of such recaps have you posted here in recent times to demand one from me?
Please continue postulate your postinor.

I'm saying if you want to rate a show, it'll be appropriate (since you claim you care about matches) at least mention all the matches. But again, you're not Dave Meltzer. That being said, if what you notice and mention more are the angles, it simply means the matches aren't exciting or aa important. Am I warm?
I never professed to be a Glorious nippon workrate purist, Sir. That na your thing.

how come I don't hear of anyone mentioning the story though. It wasn't good? A good story has to be involved for the match to have impact right? At least that's what the E fans say.
Tell me how much story all these great matches have? You go read comments elsewhere come generalise am include us as WWE fans. It's same way you accused us of saying Tyra Mae Steel sucks.

Nakamura vs Sami Zayn NXT
AJ Styles vs Finn Balor 2017 TLC
Stephanie Vaquer vs Iyo sky Raw
Jordynne Grace vs Guilia NXT
Mike Santana vs Tavion Heights NXT
Fraxiom vs Street Profits SmackDown

You enjoyed a match without a story? How is that even possible? I thought we always needed a story for a match? The E fans on the social media say to criticize AEW - "there's no story. Why are they even fighting?".
AEW contacted the WWE virus, it's about storylines now. So I'm not surprised - still rooting for them. Also I notice you're only talking angles, what about the matches? They don't matter?
This one want rage bait this morning.
Please find the quote where I said every match must have a story behind it.
The Bandido vs Hechichero match was for the ROH championship. They dey fight for belt.

As regards your thoughts about AEW being all about storylines now.
I even think WWE and AEW introduced many championships to avoid storylines.
Look at their PPV. You find more matches about championships than personal beef or exhibition match on the card.

In case you missed it, I mentioned liking the Darby vs Claudio match in the last show.
I didn't care for Garcia vs Moxley. I find Garcia pretty bland, that includes his wrestling style too.
I didn't care for the women tag match nor the Don Callis family vs Bandido and friends.
You say we don't discuss AEW here. I gave my thoughts on last week's show. You dey ask for matches🙄. I'm not Dave Meltzer, I don't get paid to give you match details.

no one cares about matches, it's all about storylines.
Lmao,i find this statement funny as I enjoyed Bandido vs Hechichero match yesterday without any storyline. I'm just done with anything main roster WWE. It's NXT for me and a bit of AEW.

AEW last week wasn't that exciting.
it was Copeland/Christian vs FTR buildup and Darby vs Claudio match that were interesting.
Garcia is boring and so are the Deathriders. Mercedes came to gloat about 9 belts but flower decoration cover one of the belts, so the viewers saw only 8🤦.
Hook returned with a theme song that doesn't fit him.
Don Callis family is way too populated right now, Wardlow goes from associating with MJF /Pinnacle group, Undisputed kingdom and now Don Callis family.
No Ospreay, No Swerve. OMEGA isn't in top shape. It's just Hangman and Darby as the top faces on a heel heavy roster.

and so? That's my point. They demoted her to Evolve, they didn't do same to Jasper Troy. They probably thought she sucked or at least wasn't ready. Someone that's miles ahead of Jade Cargill.
She and Jasper Troy all na rookies who don't have (Pro) wrestling experience. Hence, they work LFG,LEVEL UP and House shows. The only difference is that she had a 2mins piss break match on NXT two months ago.
Compare their cagematch history, you'll see it's similar.

Jade Cargill was already a top free agent coming from a rival company. They pushed her to main roster same way they put Lucha brothers, MCMG, samoans and their former guys who left AEW.
Is Jade at their level? No. Perhaps, she should have gone the NXT route. I would say Jordynne Grace is more than ready for main roster but she can't cut long promos in the WWE way (maybe that's why she's still on NXT).

She was on LVLUP and houseshows throughout last year.
The beginning of this year Na LFG and more houseshows.
She even had a houseshow match with Ariana Grace before the NXT match.
Then came the NXT Debut which was a SQUASH MATCH (2.56 seconds) with Arianna TWO MONTHS AGO.
She worked only two matches in EVOLVE, that you're shouting that she was relegated to.

After EVOLVE, it was more houseshows and TV appearances in backstage and ring segments where she didn't WRESTLE.
Her next match was on HEATWAVE PPV last Sunday and this last NXT episode.
That brings her main NXT Matches to 3.

am I seeing things? This is from my YouTube downloads and I just screenshotted it. There's no Level Up anywhere there, in the title or in the videos. The commentators don't mention Level Up, just NXT.
Asides the one with Ariana Grace, Heatwave PPV on Sunday and this week NXT episode.
Rest are ring/ backstage segments.

No be EVOLVE match dey there so? Look up Cagematch and her Wikipedia

no it's not. She's been on NXT before, months ago, wrestling. Did they show the same courtesy to her male counterpart?
NXT LEVEL UP isn't same as main NXT. It's a show for upcoming talents which was replaced with Evolve. Male wrestlers also wrestled on LEVEL UP.

WWE definitely thinks she sucks for demoting her. Olympic gold medalist ties to her wrestling so I wouldn't call that a gimmick.
Looking at cagematch, this is her first match on NXT main show. She was on house shows, LEVEL UP, LFG, Evolve. They do that for fresh talents before putting them on NXT. it's same with AEW using ROH for upcoming talents.

Who said she sucks? She is good but she is doing the Kurt Angle gimmick.
She's not a gimmick but they're doing the USA good guys Vs Foreign Heels thing.
WWE gives the ankle lock to every olympian since Angle as part of their moveset.

I read someone's comment here saying she sucks hence they pushed her to Evolve (I know she's back on NXT), so I had to watch her matches. My question is why and how does she suck? She's big, strong, knows how to wrestle (literally an Olympic gold medalist and knows how to act (this one even surprised me). Or is it because she has a natural look, packs her hair (imagine that) and doesn't have a gimmick? I'm confused. Well Tyra Mae Steele is a star and if you can't see that, I don't know what you're watching.
Please can we see the comment criticising her? I don't remember any such comment about her.

I saw Peacemaker S2 E1 and you could easily tell why this sub-genre is perhaps James Gunn's bread and better. It is just so so stellar... it's a superhero show, but it encompasses everything else, comedy, crime, drama, you just name it....I don't want to jump the Gunn, but this has a strong potential of being this year's "Penguin".

I can't wait to see it all unfold... special special show 💐
The episode was fine and okay but I didn't see anything stellar to compare the quality with dark knight or Penguin.

True, Jordynne looks ordinary rn just like Zaria.
I don't think Ricky has been fumbked yet tho.

The women's division there is very stacked, I wouldn't want HBK's Job tbh.
HBK fumbled when he booked Ricky to return from injury then lose against the Heel( Ethan Page) who sent him out of action.
He then lost his next match against an LFG rookie, Jasper Troy. The same Jasper Troy that Je'von and Inamura both defeated before Ricky.
Not every babyface is an underdog that can take repeated losses and still be over like Je'von and Sami Zayn.

Having Dana Brooke at the top of your division isn't a good look. I've also seen enough to say HBK fumbled Jordynne Grace and Ricky Saints badly.
