Since this place seems to be picking up what are your wrestling hot takes over the eras?

-If Hogan didn't screw Mr Perfect out of the Royal Rumble win in XX he would have gone to be in the conversation with Bret, and HBK.

-Bret would have always became the man he is regardless of Goldberg.

-DX really wasn't that great but they had a theme and a look that worked, and every subsequent trip to the well just got worse and worse.

-If NJPW and AEW really wants to grow their American audience they need to make anthology videosthat cover feuds or longer storylines cap them at 20 minutes and put them on YouTube. No new viewer is going to watch hundreds of hours to understand who Kota is or what Moxley is talking about when he says "Chikara bullshit" to Eddie Kingston.

-Adam Cole needs to gain just enough so he doesn't have baby knees. I love the guy but when he lowers that knee bad I just wanna go "awww".

-Let Keith Lee look the way he wants, old man Lee was a great look.

Seeing aew bend over backwards for cm punk is souring me on the show as a whole.

I was ready to give up completely when they made him champ the second time. But with the gripebomb I thought I was in the clear.

What a joke.

Funnily enough, I think of Cody and Punk switched places but were basically booked the same they would be happy.

Cody is treated as the actual main eventer that Punk wanted to be treated as.

I get why he made the decision, but Cody booked on the level of a Main Eventer, MJF as a central rival, and given Collison a more sport based old school show all sounds perfect for him too.

I want to live in this alternate timeline.
