Although he thinks the elevated profile of women’s wrestling in WWE is “a positive reflection of shifting social norms,” 27-year-old Braden Larson of Cleveland fears a harsh backlash if he openly states that he still doesn’t particularly care for women’s matches.

“I mean, I think it’s nice that the women are getting their own pay-per-view and everything, but it just doesn’t really appeal to my personal tastes,” Larson said. “I said that on Twitter, and a bunch of people called me a misogynist.”

Larson holds a number of opinions about women’s wrestling, which he bolieves are based in common sense, but have sparked heated backlash in online forums.

Among his most controversial opinions:

>“I find men’s matches typically more exciting and hard-hitting, by virtue of their larger physiques and power-based move-sets.”

>“The announcement of Evolution was interesting, but calling it ‘historic’ seems like hyperbole. I mean, it’s still just silly pro wrestling, not a significant geopolitical event.”

>“I grew up watching predominantly men’s wrestling, so perhaps my preference for men’s matches is based partly on nostalgia.”

>“Rather than giving women their own pay-per-view, wouldn’t it be more progressive and egalitarian to give them equal screen-time on normal pay-per-views, thereby not segregating talent into different modalities based on gender — which, when you think about it, is actually contrary to the concept of equality?”

After expressing such comments in an online wrestling forum, Larson was accused of hate speech and banned from posting.

Further evidence that the kikes (and their SJW minions) have succeeded in doing what they do to every single hobby/recreational activity that becomes popular and lucrative. They move in and ruin it with their pozz and bully the original fanbase out of the community. Granted in this case it being completely enabled and cheered on by Super Steph and Haitch so it's happened a bit more rapidly than with other fanbases in the past.

The saddest part is that these pieces of shit don't actually care about wrestling (or any other subject they latch onto for that matter). They only care about pushing their pozzed worldview on everyone and everything. They tried to do it with vidya and failed (that battle still rages on). So far they're succeeding with Wrastlin' but who knows how it will turn out. Hopefully the actual wrestling fans will resist with their wallets and force WWE to either cut out this gay bullshit or fail as a brand so something better can take the top spot.

Ratings are getting worse, and people aren't going to shows like they used to. People are going to other divisions and local indies more than WWE shows because they're sick of the Sjw shit, Lousy Rousey/Bork burying others while getting rewards for being celebrities, or shit booking like BLM Banks and Booley going horribly wrong (how do you ruin this angle?!). Why should anyone bother if they're going to push someone like Ruru only to see him get fucked over in a PPV while they secretly force Ramen and Sjw shit down their throats (Vince is trying to be sneaky with Ramen now)?

>The saddest part is that these pieces of shit don't actually care about wrestling (or any other subject they latch onto for that matter).

They don't care. Cartoons, porn, tabletops (Games Workshop is slowly getting pozzed), and comics have been ruined, and the people can't do shit or don't bother (Comic readers are the biggest cucks who hypocritically support SjwMarvel by buying comics and supporting the shitty MCU movies).

The pay per view will likely bomb and then they will have to go full damage control or just admit it's not a draw. Not that anything they have is a draw any more. It's clear WWE is completely out of touch with what people want these days and the hardcore fans are going else where.

I want to bolieve that but WWE fans can be super retarded, spending their time and money just because it's WWE, always eating the shit they are served. Remember there are many people who bolieve that the shitty Sasha Banks vs Charlotte Hell in a Cell match was a good match, heck fans were cheering it was good in the arena as well right?

Everyone will tell you that and how scummy it is you dummy ;but the shit they did to people like August Aimes when the sjws attacked her makes me sick and despise liberalism and sjws even more. Also Sasha Grey is a piece of shit and a scum bag like Ron "rapist" Jeremy (I read his book, and I wanted to punch the guy in the face after reading it because he brags about being a pimp).

I could immediatly notice how fucking faggy these "fans" were, just how much of commie-scum enveloping wrestling around 2012 with the start of hating real men in wrestling and praising "work-rate" and "good matches" which coincidentally always mean't faggy wrestlers with no physique got praised.

I fucking warned you faggots and now you reap what you sow. Fuck off.

Then you have faggots like dirtsheet writers sucking the cocks of that company aswell, it says it all, it's a way to subvert japanese pro wrestling aswell (which doesn't translate at all into the more showy, entertainment driven american wrestling anyway). And watching it, it's fucking gay-wrestling, i bet half of them are in gay porno aswell.

Just throwing it out there, but SJW-faggots are only bottom feeding off of Being The Elite. They are mostly ROH marks that latch onto New Japan when Bucks and Kenny are relevant, and don't have much fondness for that company that is emplying OMG LITERALLY LIKE A TOTAL ALMOST RAPIST MIKE ELGIN or RACIST STEREOTYPE GOTO. All that keeps them there is The Elite and OMG LIJ ARE LIKE PROGRESSIVE BUSHI WEARS NAIL POLISH AND LIPSTICK I SHIP NAITO AND HIROMU uWu

That is before you get to the fact that they completely neglect other Japanese or Mexican companies, these fuckers never watched a Michinoku Pro match or Big Japan match and never will, and probably have never enjoyed even big Mexican promotions like CMLL, AAA or Crash.

Regarding WWE, they have been on the decline with retaining fans since probably halfway through Ruthless Aggression, PG era killed most of their old core and now that it is falling out of fashion to watch pro wrasslin for the lefty fuckwits the group that they hitched their wagon to in late PG is not giving Trips and Steph the ticket sales they need.

tl;dr the SJW-faggots aren't responsible for New Japan getting big in the west, they are largely responsible for the growth of ROH in the last couple of years (even as ROH has bled its long faithful fanbase due to decreased match quality and increased dramatic bullshit) and the pushing of US style angles in NJPW. NJPW has been growing mainly due to it finally having a distribution model that means you don't have to be a tape trader to see it, tbh. WWE was already dying in Ruthless Aggression, before the fuckwits showed up.

This course will correct itself, bookers will book what makes money, just don't support shit you don't like. Positives, Impact is doing surprisingly well with Pritchard and co involved, New Japan seems to be finally correcting their course, NOAH and All Japan are having a resurgence, and hopefully WOS can help the poms navigate away from "smashing patriarchy" fed pandering.

Basically what >>123668 said, its a combination of Goto sticking up for the Japanese wrestlers in interviews which makes them sad because it means that KENNY and The Bucks are not free from criticism, and the fact that Goto is a character based on what the Japanese people see as being Japanese spirit and nationalism, not the fuckwits anime based idea of what makes a TOP WARRIOR.

Naito and Bushi get away with criticising some of their sacred cows because fags have latched onto LIJ in the last year or two which much like them latching onto BC has been fucking annoying for people who just appreciate the workers but Goto is basically the Japanese equivalent of the FUCKING WHITE MALE that they loathe.

Not quite. Bullet Club was already popular among wrestling fans. What made the faggot crowds jump on the wagon was when AJ (sad irony of ironies), Nakamura (funny because he was in Chaos) and Devitt came to Hartford. This made all of the soys that had infected WWE in the past few years jump on the bandwagon of people who were genuinely excited to see these guys stateside again to prove that they were "real wrasslin fans" which then meant that they had to look to where those people came from, which then really introduced them into Being The Elite (which honestly is the most accessible way for a fan new to Japanese wrestling to see into what it was, at least it was a couple of years ago before it became 99% storyline) and now you have them awkwardly trying to start WWE chants at NJPW west coast shows.

Flippy shit is probably the fault of people like Foley and the Hardies. They would have these dumb over the top stunts every match and people came to think that's what the non-mastadon guys had to do to get noticed. WCW had the midget division full of flippy shit as well. Basically The attitude era mid carders fucked up the industry because it's easier to doa back flip off a ladder and get a pop than it is to do a slow grindy match and tell a story.

This is why drawn porn in one way is less bad than the real shit. More likely to find solo content so you aren't being a cuck watching another man fuck a woman and are instead jerking it to just that woman. The drawback of that of course is drawn tends to have more and worse fetishes thrown in that fuck you up mentally if you fall down the rabbit hole.

Bigger than Austin too? I can never know which for sure. Adjusted for inflation, guys in the 50s and 60s like Bruno did very well too, for sure Bruno must've outsold MSG more than Hogan.

Also, one thing about Meltzer which I can't get over is that he gave Andre vs Hogan at WM3 an insulting -4 stars, insane. Sure the match wasn't incredible but it still had arguably the most memorable moment in wrestling when Hogan slammed Andre. That alone should've bummed it up a lot but according to Meltzer, a ton of other shitty matches, like Christy Hemme vs Big Fat Oily Guy were better.

>inb4 lol worked by Meltzer's meme stars

When it comes to the IWC, two things are always certain:

>1. They will always have the darling du jour that ends up in WWE a few years later

>2. They will always shit on Hogan and his achievements

Hogan vs. Rock only has 3 stars, and the previous title match between HHH and HHH only has 2. The former was literally the transitional match between the Golden Era, who had stayed relevant throughout Attitude, and the Ruthless Aggression Era, who practically started from scratch once Austin and Rock left.

In wrestling, one shouldn't rate a match purely on workrate alone; the overness with the crowd and historic value should be considered too. The Icon vs. Icon match at WM X-8 should have another star and a half easily, based on those two additional merits.

A particularly recent and very pathetic example of their astroturfing is how they suggest Hogan was only big in America. Straight off the bat, I can give you three reasons why that's bullshit:

==Everyone knows what the Rocky films are.== Everyone knows the villains in each of them. Apollo Creed (which doesn't really count), Clubber Lang, Thunderlips and Ivan Drago.

Until Stan Hansen and Vader, he was the biggest Gaijin the Japanese wrestling scene had ever seen

Plus he had an admirable workrate that American crowds never saw.

Britwres died in 1987 after Big Daddy Shirley Crabtree not Kevin Nash was partly responsible for King Kong Kirk's death.

Now tell me, what else happened in 1987 with regards to wrestling? How did it remain popular in the UK, considering WCW never aired there until its dying days in a cut-down format?

I will say one thing in defence of Meltzer rating it poorly, and I say this as someone who doesn't have much fondness for Dave.

Hogan slamming Andre had actually been done multiple times before in house shows. Iirc, it had actually been done on TV at least once before. Part of me thinks that the "experience" of Hogan slamming Andre was already old news for Meltzer, who had already covered it happening before, and as somebody who actually likes the bout, take that element away and it is a pretty shit match, worse than what either of them could usually provide in that era.

Not a fan of big Dave, but just my two cents on the matter.

Have you seen Rocky 3? Thunderlips isn't the villain of that movie, he's just a cameo. He appears for like 2 minutes as an example of how Rocky has fallen and lost his edge. He's doing stupid gimmick charity events while he has the belt and is only being put up against chumps. Mr. T is the villain of the movie because he's a street kid ready to beat the shit out of any one he needs to for validation.

The movie doesn't make a big deal out of Hogan. Hogan just plays an overly aggressive heel wrestler who hurts Rocky while Rocky thinks they're having a little fun for the charity and isn't taking it seriously. He appears and is gone in the first act. The focus then switches entirely over to Rocky and Apollo retraining Rocky to make him hungry again and fight like a negro and not a white guy.

The two big plot points of the movie are that Rocky needs to get the eye of the tiger back and that Rocky needs to learn to fight like a negro instead of a tanky white guy. Up until this point Rocky has just refused to stay down, he's let his opponents beat him senseless and then wont he war of attrition. He can't do that against Clubber Lang as he's much younger and Rocky's health is in decline. Rocky would likely die if he just tried to tank it. Instead Apollo retrains him so he's more agile and weaving more, taking on a style similar to Apollos own.

So apparently "everyone knows who the villains are" except you don't know the villains.
