Wrestling Thread April-September 2018 RIP

Not gonna put it on Zeus yet, seems more like bad choice of region and arena. If he starts busting at Korakuen, then he’s outta here :lol:.

Zeus/Shuji was fire though. All the way until the AJPW.tv feed cut off around the finish :sick::smh:

They still don’t have the video up either smh :lol: :emoji_face_palm:

It might be up now

How was the Kento/Hino match?

Funny, folks in here were crying about that match going on first. Saying Seth should feel insulted


That’s not what was said...

In summary it was said you build the company around that guy, he should be on (close) to the main event because he is important. When you open the show it doesn’t show you’re a main eventer or you can support the company on your back, regardless of what Sullivan has or has not said. But continue with your narrative per usual.

Side note: It was also said (by me) I enjoyed the match but it was a burn off.

Yea, that isn't what was said because I don't think anyone here has/will argue that Seth Rollins is in any position to carry WWE.

And I said SUllivan said that the opening match should get the fans going from an excitement standpoint. Technicians, flyers, people that can GO should be in that 1st slot
 
Not hard to believe, I just asked a simple question if you believed it is all. Sullivan can state it as many times as he wants, I asked you though.

The booking isn’t a good look for Seth. Talking about a guy who could carry Raw, the Title and the company and he’s being booked in an opener on the second biggest ppv.

This is more important than having him showcase toward the end of the PPV?... where Ronda and Brock is going to be. Where A.J. will probably be? If that’s where the bar is, no Ceasaro, then that’s probably where I would want Seth booked near.
So if we already have

Joe/AJ
Brock/Roman

Essentially being the key matches of the night, due to title implications, where would YOU have slotted Seth/Dolph on the card?
 
I put him on right before the two titles.

Universal
WWE
IC

That’s not how SS was structured, it had maybe 3 burned matches between AJ/Joe and Brock. Possibly 4 but I can think of 3 for sure.
 
You go ahead first since I was just responding to what you said in the prior post
Well, I was responding to what Lance Ito was saying. He introduced the concept of Seth could/should be carrying the company, so he shouldn't be in the opening match.

I view someone "Carrying" the company as someone that, if they left" the company would see a significant drop in viewership/attendance.

I don't think if Seth Rollins died tonight, WWE would see a drop in anything.
 
I think you could insert any wrestler into that sentence and it'd be true. They've made it so that the brand is the draw now
Which is why I said the concept of ANYONE (let alone some damn Seth Rollins) "carrying the company" doesn't even exist since the BRAND is what sells.
