You can't wear face paint or makeup in the UFC because visible damage is one of the criteria used to award points. Pro wrestling doesn't work that way.

oh really? So what about sports where the criteria isn't visible damage, like women's football for instance?

CoolUsername:
It still brings me back to the Jeff Hardy point, though. Do Jeff Hardy, Ultimate Warrior, and Sting also make wrestling look phony to you? It's even funnier that you'd use Bianca Belair as the scapegoat when she's twice as strong and athletic as 90% of the women's roster.

I already answered that question. A face paint for personal reasons isn't same as a makeup for beautification. If guys like Sting may need a face paint for fun or for whatever personal reasons, it's their choice, cos they know the paint will wear out anyway. But you see women being instructed to wear makeup for beautification makes absolutely no sense. It doesn't add anything to them in anyway. And you know it.

This is why our local Kunu remains the best. No one can disprove that.

Women wear make-up. Even to work. Deal with it.

depending on the work. Woman don't wear makeup to go for a hectic engineering work, not to talk of for a fight combat. Don't you see how UFC women look in their matches? No makeup and a short and packed hair; now that's everything different for someone like a Bianca Belair. Those things are excesses and the spoil the show and make wrestling look phony. And I'm sure these women are being told to look so and not of their own will.

Continue dropping your opinions bruh, it's highly welcomed.

And I'm sure you've been ready for pushbacks so there are no issues here.

thanks bro. I appreciate the encouragement.

haba. For a free platform again. I don't see the problem, cos this place is usually silent till Pu7pl3 drops something. I'm dropping opinions on how pro-wrestling can be better, I don't see how that makes me hate entertainment.

Stardust looking at the bolded

stardust is no more though. We got Cody 'get beat up by Brock every week and his gonna fight him with a broken arm' Rhodes. Momentum is just decreasing every day. Chai.

CoolUsername:
To look like superstars on TV.

Are you also going to ask why Sting, Jeff Hardy, and Goldust take the time to paint their faces or do you only have trouble understanding why women do it?

there's difference between face paint and makeup. The first guys wear it out of their own choices for personal reasons, while the other is worn due to an instruction from above and for beautification purposes. Also the first guys don't NEED it while the second do (at least in their mind).
Things like these are why women's wrestling still looks phony. And I respect ladies that don't wear it.

CoolUsername, please explain to me why women wear heavy makeup to wrestle?

CoolUsername:
"Oh no! This makes both shows unwatchable!"

just the women side sha. Because how can?! What ridiculousness.

I need see your medical certificate of mental fitness.

I need to see yours.

Really, calm down. It's not really that hard. Your last APC candidate messed the country up and took it's citizens for a ride. Under his administration innocent protesters were killed and nothing was done about it; so you see, we're just trying to prevent another Buhari from the same party from reincarnating. It's really not that hard. Let the court case be completed and don't take it to heart by calling names here and there, and attempting to instigate violence. The elections were unfair and IF at the end of this Tinubu is still declared winner, then it's fine. At least then we'll know we are our problem as a Nation. So let the processes continue, peacefully. E nu go?

Iceflox:
Can you imagine?

If you try this rubbish with me i will leave the school for you and your parents

Rubbish

why? The intention or the age?

So in WWE the RAW women's champion is on Smackdown, while the Smackdown women's champion is on RAW. Totally not strange guys.

RingRoadMafia:
Guy shut up if you have nothing to say. I'm pretty sure that you didn't even bother to watch the video before spewing this nonsense.

After the Indian chef broke the record, how many Indians quickly sprang up to take the glory from her? She held that record for 4 solid years before Hilda broke it. Hilda broke hers and in less than 48 hours, all manner of human beings started springing up from remote African countries saying that they have decided to bid for the record.

Why not allow the poor girl enjoy the fruits of her hard work before trying to take away her shine? This jealousy and "pull him down" syndrome is the reason why Africa doesn't move forward!

guy forget this talk. If they wan break and make them break am. Are we mediocres? The point of all these is for the challenge of it. Simple

Noise makers should very much remember that Nollywood began in that same Asaba.

Twoclans:
Tobi bakare is a mad man

Congratulations Tobi .

You are killing it . Congratulations.

People that do not see anything good in BBN should come and see two of their own winning congratulations .

did he learn how to act from the said BBN? Una just pack people for inside one house make them dey fornicate, you say na show.

Vj Adams is really enjoying. May it lead to a peaceful home/marriage

her pikin wey she get, na Adams own?

TheSuperX:
If you can't respect their tradition don't travel there, besides jalabia has always been for men, while abaya is for females. don't think because you are lawless here then you can do the same thing in their land, they will treat ur fvck up.

so a woman wearing clothes is lawlessness? Go and check their laws put up against women before you hold a conversation with me. Know the difference between law and wickedness.

ruggedtimi:
Obey their traditional

which kin tradition. Everything descriminating women is tradition to them. Nonsense.

CoolUsername:
This isn't even legit criticism you're just a hater at this point.

fine. I was kidding. Even though we don't know whether its a big or a small role, Rollins still deserves his flowers. But if you still look at it, WWE didn't make him per say. Tyler Black was already made before E picked him. They just gave him a spot light and a place to grow. And what has he done since 2019? Jumping from one gimmick to another like a midcarder. It's really dissapointing.

CoolUsername:
TV ratings have been going down across the board because of streaming. That's a disingenuous argument.

fair enough.

Upon all their education? See what they are wearing during their rites for instance. Africans are truly backward.

CoolUsername:
Wrestling ratings since June 2022

big deal. They used to hit 6 million back.in the day. Meanwhile, do you know how much FOX lost because of Smackdown in 2022 and 2021? Even me I couldn't believe. You won't see that in the news, for some reason.

CoolUsername:
This is a direct shot at "WWE can't create new stars."

whether na 'waka pass' we no even know.
Meanwhile una world champ Romanus is reported as going to be working even lesser dates to pursue Hollywood ambitions. He'll probably show up next year and automatically be a 1000 and whatever days champion.

CoolUsername:
I hope you understand that's the kayfabe reason, right? Just like when CM Punk won the WWE Championship and was about to leave the company—Roman Reigns is not actually holding the title hostage. Creative just wants a dominant heel champion and it is in character for a heel to do whatever is takes to limit the number of times he defends his title.

first off, I hate Hollywood stories in wrestling (I used to love them). It makes it goofy and silly. 2nd, CM Punk's made some sense. He held a title hostage and went away. But in this case Mr Roman holds a title hostage and is still on pay-roll. To add insult injury Mr "I don't wanna wrestle" decides he is going to wrestle, not to defend his world title in the PPV where it should be defended the most, but for a tag belt he has absolutely no business with! It's entertainment doesn't mean it should be silly. Wrestling also can be logical.

CoolUsername:
It's only the month after WrestleMania, Roman Reigns wants to keep his title defences few and far between to prolong his reign.

who calls that shots? Roman or management? If they want him wrestling once every 6 months, that's fine, as long as it's their choice and they accord everyone else who's going to hold that belt same previlege.

CoolUsername:
Ronaldo and Dwayne Johnson were let go because they couldn't deliver. Roman Reigns continues to be a draw for WWE and as long as that keeps happening, they will continue to listen to him.

Also, Roman Reigns isn't disregarding refs during his matches. We are taking about assumed backstage politicking.

Francis Nganou was delivering, yet they still fired him. No one is indispensable bro.

CoolUsername:
I'm starting to question whether you actually understand the difference between kayfabe and reality. I said that, in reality, WWE wants to protect their top guy from potential injury and overexposure which is why he doesn't fight as much as he used to. That doesn't mean he won't fight at all, it just means that when he does, it would be a bigger deal.

and yet they let him participate in a tag match. Why are they so confused. You either let him be or let him wrestle.

CoolUsername:
Also, a few marks complaining about their programming on twitter and Cagematch doesn't change the fact that in reality, the Raw after WrestleMania did over 2 million viewers in ratings, which is above average for Raw. Despite many members of the IWC predicting that there would be a drop off.

what's the current rating?

CoolUsername:
In what reality is a company that is making huge profits off live events and merch sales not doing anything right?

in the long run you'll see. The signs are already there.

CoolUsername:
Don't worry bro, the show that you don't watch isn't insulting your intelligence.

I don't need to watch it. The news is on the net.

.

CoolUsername:
Yeah, like complaining about not understanding the justification for the Bianca Belair vs Iyo Sky match at Backlash, only to mention that you didn't actually watch the build up to said match?

my perspective was that a secondary stable mate shouldn't be wrestling for a world title.

CoolUsername:
Reputation doesn't mean much if your product is consistently bad. Disney has been taking losses from their recent MCU endeavours. We've seen the Star Wars franchise go from one of the most profitable in the world to making box office flops like Solo.

Also, 50+ years of great programming is such a wild statement. Where were you during the anonymous Raw GM era?

my point exactly, and you can see it took several movies to flop before it became obvious that they were losing steam; and still those movies made big money(my point exactly). Star wars isn't exempted, their last trilogy had 2 bad films that still made mega bucks. Reputation matters especially when you've got 50+ years of goodwill.

CoolUsername:
WWE has always brought in celebrity guests. Mr T fought in WrestleMania 1. Denis Rodman had a stint with Hollywood Hogan. Vince McMahon had a feud with Donald Trump ffs. I don't know what you're going on about

marketing is beyond just bringing in celebrities, it's the overall packaging Vince's product has. The business deals behind closed doors, transactions, deals closing, merch, the expensive stages, artificial fan reactions, John Cena John Cena John Cena, Goldberg Goldberg Goldberg, Taker Taker Taker. Notice how WWE's networth compared to UFC's is 43 to 57, and yet Vince was able to negotiate 49 to 51; that's the marketing I'm talking about. Basically every other thing in a business besides the actual value of the product. If they had good quality they would have made stars of the level of Hogan and Cena, but here we are. Asides Roman, every other big name there got their spark and training from another company. And even the Roman sef, take away Heyman especially and Vince's favoritism, and he's not much of a big name.
I hope with this few points of mine I've been to convince you that WWE is seriously flawed.

Remembering also that Charles Inojie almost died, all these happening in the space of 3 days, is scary.

pu7pl3:
When I critique I don't go as deep as you do bro cos at the back of my mind I know it's all Kayfabe and I like it that way.

how deep abeg. Okay would you like it if there wasn't a Royal Rumble match at a Royal Rumble PPV?
