@RickyCast7@TheClickPit That tag is attached to a lot of non-AI real art all over the app, the AEW graphics are some of the many pieces of art that are occasionally wrongly tagged. This app is a mess and often labels things incorrectly.
@BlackHatPRO_ Andrade left on far better terms, has direct connections with multiple partner companies of AEW, and most importantly he's just a better worker. Tommy End of 2015 rocked, but he hasn't done much in terms of work since before the pandemic.
@chrisobread Probably the most copied and mimicked movie of the last 40 years, Marty's directing and editing here ushered in the modern landscape in a big way. Triumph of this movie is making you feel the way the characters do - its an intoxicating, flashy, flourishing ride, luring us in.
@SuitWilliams Hall no doubt, late NJPW Nakamura is up there, RVD during periods of his career, Onita, Road Warriors in the 80s, Flair in the 80s, Rock in 99/00/03
@georgelanc25 He's not wrong in this instance, I think most people only know the modern wrestling landscape of the WrestleMania era because thats the history WWE has taught us. It's like the idiots claiming Chelsea had no history pre-Roman, which is nonsense, but most only know the PL era.
@VicLombardi Because Durant played 78 games, and a healthy Durant covers up a whole lot of the holes left from injuries and horrible roster construction
@ThatWrestlePod@TedFromThePWO Some people are just better fits in different styled environments. We've seen this run both ways with WWE/AEW, we've seen it with wrestlers thriving in Japan who never did well in America we see it with Mistico being a god in Mexico but just not working out in WWE, etc.
@MikeyRukus The footsteps arenβt the issue, those are legal and just players evolving to make the most of the rules. Itβs the carrying on dribbling that is the most sketchy with regard to older rules and standards. 90% of common dribbles would have been carries years ago.
@MikeyRukus Players got far more efficient at stretching the rule, legally, and over time it just became more and more common due to natural skill evolution and rule clarifications to match it. What youβre seeing is fully legal now, but would have likely been penalized 40 years ago.
@AndTheRUN@DynastyOmegx@LyricWrestling I can definitely see that, I think it was definitely the best conclusion to any title reign, and as you say itβs the primary cause of AEWs hot streak
@DynastyOmegx@LyricWrestling Omega had the really good matches, but also had the belt collector stuff, a lot of great heel Elite stuff, and the big standout story with Hangman which turned Hangman into *the guy*
@DynastyOmegx@LyricWrestling Swerve as a wrestler was absolutely fantastic in 24, but i think his title reign was just solid - good Collision match with Claudio, good DoN defense against Christian, then great Ospreay match at FD and great Danielson match at All In. Good matches, but no real standout stories
@LyricWrestling I was lukewarm on the idea going into the night but the episode fully won me over and I was smiling ear to ear by the end. Really happy right now.
@7700saint I think its definitely his best AEW promo, he had some post-match and press conference gems in Japan, but as far as an in-ring AEW promo goes, that was his best. Also helps that he looks like one of the biggest stars of all time when he's in a suit. Suit Omega goes crazy.
maybe i'm too pretentious and too confident in my own interpretations, but i genuinely believe that someone who sees asoiaf as "fundamentally pessimistic" did not comprehend the books on a basic level
