Wrestling Thread June 5th-30th/TGIF Edition/G1 Special In US Saturday 8PM ET Okada vs Cody

Anyone else feel that watching any WWE product after watching a New Japan show is such a damn chore? Dominion seriously was one of the better shows I have seen in quite a long time probably since Mania 31 and it was way better than that.


I can't watch it any more. If you guys hyped something up I watch the next day on hulu but 5 hours weekly. I can't any more. Just current PPVs and old classic stuff.

Pushing close to 2 months since I last watched RAW but will watch Smackdown every week and the PPV's but that is it for me as far as WWE product goes. Still watch a lot of the old stuff on the Network so I guess that counts too...

I've felt this way since WrestleKingdom. Plus the last few weeks in WWE have been that bad it's made it worse.
 
I use to be a HUGE WWE fanboy...but for the past three years I've struggled to even keep up with it. At times it's borderline embarrassing...but the style of NJPW and to a certain degree ROH is absolutely mind blowing. They make it a art.
 
I am so glad many of you have been willing to watch more New Japan. I have like 2 matches to finish Dominion. Which won't be until later cause my niece graduates high school today. Very proud of her. View media item 2463054

Been hooked ever since Jemele put me on to it. Now that I can watch on the XBox One and not my laptop it's even better :Nthat

Watching 3 hours if RAW is a chore no matter what... That show just constantly insults your intelligence as a viewer... It honestly boggles my mind how people can sit down and watch it live...

Dominion, at 4.5 hours was a long show... But it never once dragged... After the main event you sat there happy it was over :lol, but that's no different than seeing a 3 hour movie at the cinema... RAW drags it *** 15 minutes into the show every week... Y'all that watch live every damn week are truly WWE branded sheep....

And they're still using the same format since '98. Its taxing to watch.

I was expecting an intermission but didn't even mind that there wasn't one they just kept going from one match to the next gave you no time to catch your breath :smokin

I don't remember the last time I watched a Raw live. Usually I'll catch the main event live, then backtrack on the dvr. Usually takes 30 minutes tops depending on what's on :lol I can watch SD all the way through mostly, and it's been a very long time since I've watched ROH. Seems like they've been the victim of so much poaching.

Gene is that you? :lol
 
If I wasn't able to come in here and have discussions on Monday nights I'd never watch Raw..SD still stays consistently good IMO, and with it being 2 hours it's easier to watch..

I've been saying it for the past 3-4 yrs, but WWE will be in much better shape once Vince retires/is forced out by shareholders/dies and Shoveluhhh can take over (no pun intended)..You can tell, for the most part, by the NXT product that Trips wants to go back to the old school/Dusty style of booking where the story line is secondary to the actual in ring performances..I bet he absolutely hates putting the same guys in the same 7-11 minute matches every week..

This current NJPW reminds me so much of back in the early-mid 90's when I used to tape trade..You have this great blend of big stars, young lions, and foreigners(although there's much more now) that are putting on top level matches each and every night..

There's also been some very good wrestling coming out of Europe the past couple years..Having youtube, watchwrestling, and dailymotion makes this period of time awesome if you're a wrestling fan..

What is this watchwrestling site?
 
If only we can get Peep to watch NJPW but he is too attached to Dixie Carter.

MeanGene, no hope for dude. He will never change
