WRESTLEKING

Kofi has a nearly similar career track as Jey Uso. Are ya’ll going to call Jey Uso the greatest midcarder of all time when he’s gone too? There’s a lot of recency bias in the IWC right now.

How did Keph know 🤯

Brock Lesnar went out the best way possible: with humility and grace. Nobody knew or expected it. He didn’t ask for a retirement tour. He went quietly. He silenced his enemies. I truly hope he doesn’t come back to lose to Gunther. Brock Lesnar is one of the greatest of all time. Be grateful you were able to witness his career. Thank you, Brock!

Roman Reigns is beating Jacob Fatu with the stipulation that Jacob Fatu acknowledges Roman as Tribal Chief. Jacob’s going to be the Solo Sikoa replacement for this new Bloodline.

Feels like we’re back in 2023 again. Just feels right.

FYI - “No selling” isn’t exclusively popping right back up after a finisher or other move (that’s what we see in AEW regularly). It can also be a mild stagger, temporary disorientation, etc. It can be a comeback spot, a sign of disrespect, a storyline/gimmick enhancement, etc. No selling is used to tell a story. Oba did pop back up within seconds of eating Brock’s F5, and it was quick enough for Oba to counter with a choke slam. I understand why WWE booked it this way, but it’s something I personally disagree with because it sets an unrealistic tone for future matchups.

Here’s the thing with Oba Femi that nobody wants to talk about. For full disclosure, I’m a fan of Oba. I think he’s the future of WWE. People are talking about Oba dethroning Roman Reigns and becoming world champion already. I think this is short sighted and will actually hurt Oba in the long term. This isn’t a Brock Lesnar situation. There aren’t a lot of big guys on the roster like during Brock’s debut and tenure that Oba can run through. If he goes on to dethrone Roman already, what’s next? Roman is the biggest star on the roster already, so anyone below him is a downgrade and not as impactful in terms of booking. Then what? Squashes everyone for the rest of his 20 year career? The IWC will turn on him faster than their SSRI’s kick in during their mental episodes. This is a 100% GUARANTEE. I think WWE needs to slow down on Oba. Give him a long IC title run and have him demolish the midcard. It’ll be fun to watch. Then, slowly work him into the main title picture strategically. Those calling for him to “squash everyone” and get “pushed to the moon” will also be the ones that complain when it becomes redundant.

This is why Roman Reigns is the top guy. It’s also why Brock Lesnar and Randy Orton are top guys. They don’t care about the hate they get—no mental breakdowns, no victim mentality. They have nothing to prove to anyone.

Love this ☝🏽

Help me understand why Pat McAfee saying what many of us have been saying for years about the WWE and the IWC is bad all of the sudden? The product has been dogshit for years. And it’s not just me saying it….. It’s also YOU saying it. All of YOU.

Most of me firmly believes everything going on right now is a work. But part of me believes there is a lot of desperation brewing within WWE/TKO. Not tension, but desperation. The Cody Rhodes/CM Punk experiment isn’t doing much for the product overall, and the product has continued to struggle despite them being the current world champions. Fans are cheering Roman during Punk segments, and Orton during Cody segments, and I bet this confuses the shit out of Creative. The product is now reliant on a select few, like Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns, and Randy Orton it seems. It’s not John Cena’s responsibility to continuously try to repair this broken product.

CM Punk returned to WWE in 2023, and there hasn’t been a single talent that he has “buried” yet. He could hardly keep up with Drew McIntyre, John Cena, and now Pat McAfee in terms of promo work. Remember he did the whole thuganomics bit that was extremely cringe? I honestly don’t see what a lot of the IWC sees in CM Punk.

It’s crazy what WWE Creative has done to try and put their “goldenboy” Cody Rhodes over. -Podcast with HHH over-complimenting Cody and his legacy -Brought in Pat McAfee because fans refused to boo Randy Orton over Cody -Turned Cena heel, but fans still refused to cheer Cody over Cena -Introduced The Rock’s “Final Boss” gimmick to bring sympathy for Cody, but fans kept cheering The Rock -Ran a “real champion” angle with Kevin Owens, but fans kept cheering Kevin Owens -Stripped Drew McIntyre of the WWE title a few weeks before WM42 with record dislikes on YouTube -Gave Cody a full-blown coronation at WrestleMania 40 and built an entire “new era” around him -Had Randy Orton cut a promo about how Cody is better than him, after Cody won the title at WM40, along with numerous other talent -Had Cody win 2 back to back Rumbles, Crown Jewel, etc. If you critically think on the failures of the overall WWE product over the last few years, many of the issues center around having to do Creative gymnastics around getting Cody over even when his opponents were already heelish. I’m not blaming Cody Rhodes; I’m blaming Creative. Doing the same thing over and over again, and hoping for a different result is insanity. It’s time to move on from this era into the next. Try something different and new.

One week away from WrestleMania 42, which match would you have preferred?

“Deep in Paul Levesque’s cheeks” is wild af 😂😂😂 Whoever wrote/approved that promo line is crazy.
