This is the current WWE Intercontinental Champion:
This is a title held by such men as Ultimate Warrior, Randy Savage, Hulk Hogan and Razor Ramon.
Is the last bastion of celebrating the /fit/ man, professional wrestling, dead? Has Fat Acceptance won?
>WWE is gay as fuck, I miss le Attitude Era xDD
>"Why aren't these guys all muscly and oiled up?"
>btw no homo
He's better at actual wrestling than all four of them combined.

Fat bastards have always been a thing in pro wrestling. The super muscular guys like Hogan and Graham are the exception rather than the rule.
>>35201569
that shirt is shopped as fuck. big show is king big daddy
Man, I miss the Attitude era.
>>35201641
I do too.
>>35201641
Can't say I'm sad to see it gone. Had its upsides, but it was basically ECW writ large - car crash booking and working to hide just how limited the top guys were.
Kevin Owens is fucking awesome though, and he can actually move.

Fucking marks.
>>35201569
The dudes actually a hell of an athlete compared to those roided up stiffs. Just look how ryback wrestles compared to like anyone else on the roster who isn't juicing
no no no
NO NO NO
you fagets ruined /asp/ but you will not take /fit/
being an actor in a neckbeard mandrama for inbreds has nothing to do with the glorious art of lifting
sage and report
>>35201808
Could you explain? I'm too tired to do the legwork all by myself.
>>35201569
>is pro wresting DEAD?
Ugh obviously, but most of the appeal came from the character of the characters. There's been 100 pure athletes that I can't remember and they were all insufferable because all they had was pretty faces and tight bods. The Miz comes to mind. That guy was just a faggot.
>>35202200
Ryback moves like shit. He's jacked and legit strong, but he moves stiff as all hell and has no real explosiveness or mobility. Owens, like most genuinely good fat guy wrestlers, moves smoothly and doesn't look like he's got a puppeteer yanking his limbs around.

>tfw /sp/ won
kek
KEK
>>35201569
Cool story daddio!
>>35201624
This. KO could out wrestle all those guys. He's a beast in the ring and on the mic. Couldn't ask for a better heel, which his body also adds to.
>>35201569
>professional wrestling
>bastion of anything
kek'd hard

THE BIG BAD BOOTY DADDY

Warrior and Hogan I'll give you. Well, Hogan could work when he wanted to but he rarely did shit (and its pretty easy to see why). Razor? Probably, although we never really got to see what Hall could have done in his prime
Better than Savage? Hell no. Savage managed to drag a genuinely good match out of the Ultimate fucking Warrior.
HOLLA IF YA HEAR ME
>>35201569
champion of a staged sport? lol
>>35202331
Kevin Owens got a good match out of Titus O'Neil and Mark Henry dude.
On a side note I didn't read macho man's name in there.
>>35202369
Henry is actually a good enough worker nowadays (and if you'd told me a decade ago I'd be saying that, I would never have believed you). He's no Vader but he is one of the better superheavies.
Titus I'll agree on to an extent. He's not a good worker, but he's miles ahead of Warrior. Shit, Ahmed Johnson was miles ahead of Warrior.
>>35201569
do Americans really believe its real?
also wouldn't be the first time haes infiltrated the WWE
remember rikishi fatu? he tried to promote that you can be fat and healthy, he was let go from wwe after he ignored requests to lose weight
ATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATA
>>35202400
Do you believe all the tv shows and movies you enjoy are real?
>>35202400
No. The backstage politics and everything that goes into a story and character is extremely interesting though. I watch for a few people on the roster, but mostly listen to podcasts about the stuff because I find it cool.
Is he really the worlds strongest man?
>>35202419
I don't post like I believe they are
>>35202489
He still holds a record for squats but apparently it was a shady fed that let you use wraps and whatever.
>>35202489
He never won a WSM contest, but he's got a pretty good claim to it overall - he's one of about three people I can think of to ever compete at the elite level in powerlifting, Olympic lifting and strongman. Dude's a certified legend in strength sports.
>>35202489
Hahahahhahahahah
Hes not
>>35201569
WWE is PC now, didn't you know? Are you PC, bro?
>>35202497
You're a moron if you think that's how wrestling discussion happens. When you talk about the content of a show you discuss it within the bounds of that reality, when you talk about the production of a show you talk about the reality of it, it's the same thing for wrestling.
>>35202504
This. He could have gone further with it, but the wwe payed him more
>>35201569
>being this sour
>>35201569
Isn't he a french Canadian? Who cares?
