A face wrestler: *breathes* Corbin: I FEEL THREATENED YOU'RE GOING ONE ON ONE WITH BRAUN STROWMAN Unpopular Opinion (May be popular): I don't like when companies use real world issues for cheap heat (Taz cutting the promo on Jon Moxley last night is an example) (Renee did confirm she has Covid-19) yeah that’s a big yikes from me |

Unpopular Opinion: Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks are, in fact, some of the WORST wrestlers to ever make it big, although they are incredible athletes. I agree, Kenny and the Bucks don’t always put on the best matches but they really are incredible athletic. |

Although AEW is great, I think they should’ve just stuck with big supershows like they did with ALL IN. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy AEW as much as the next AEW fan but I feel like if they just put on Mega shows every month or every other month while building the card from matches from other promotions like in NJPW or ROH then they could have been more special.

WWE (and to a lesser extent AEW) is too hard to keep up with and requires too much of a time investment.
WWE asks of its fans/The WWE Universe 7 hours of weekly network programming, a four hour PPV each month, quarterly Takeovers, podcasts, Twitter and Instagram feeds, and they’re all necessary if you want to know why people are fighting.
AEW asks two hours weekly for Dynamite, another 1 1/2 hours for Dark, 20-30 minutes for BTE, plus Twitter and Instagram, and Jericho’s and Schiavone/Edwards podcast.
It’s a damn part-time job being a fan anymore.

I don't have much of a problem with Taz's promo, as it can be easily rebutted by Mox, I do however hate it when they bring in things that can be actually hurtful for the wrestlers involved, like:
- the recent Sheamus vs. Jeff Hardy feud. Jeff has had multiple relapses, so I have to imagine it's a touchy subject for him
- The Edge, Lita & Matt cheating angle
- Last Call Scott Hall
- That Road Warriors angle
All in poor taste IMO

You can be a fan of both AEW & WWE without putting one as better than the other.

Also I agree on the Cm Punk one Brian Pillman Jr is the best wrestler to be unsigned by the big 3 (nwa, wwe, aew) His dad is underrated [br There’s a big 3? |

I'd say NJPW is bigger than NWA. Far bigger tbh.
You could argue that TNA is too.
NWA has the history of course.

What I mean is the big three in the US I think there’s just a big one in the US. And then a fight for a legitimate number 2. I’ve seen this play before. I certainly don’t believe any will come close to what wcw did during the wars-it was more superstar driven then.. I actually think WWE by having soo many wrestlers and dividing itself up ,then combining and then the nxt stuff(sorry to say stuff, I only watch rumbles and manias at this point, but I read up n watch classic stuff daily) and the network make it unbeatable. WWE actually does better when they have legitimate competition- it both creates real drama and they can grab guys from other promotions who are ready, lets say on their foil cards when they arrive and don’t need brand new push and pop. |

In the mid-late 2000s TNA (for the most part) was better than WWE

You can be a fan of both AEW & WWE without putting one as better than the other. the funny thing is that this is clearly right (even if it's not just between these 2) but it still manages to be unpopular |
