seems like a good way to get drowned

I major in film at college and I also studied a bit about the business of film. I'm no expert, but from its history I have a hypothesis of why this feud has failed both in the financial and critical departments.

Simply put, WWE gambled too much with a director who doesn't know how to make a good in-ring story. If you look at his history, Styles is definitely more competent in making moves look great than telling an actual story. So as a result, WWE probably made the wrong choice for an opponent when they pumped air time into this thing. They brought in a wrestler who doesn't know how to make compelling stories and thus not get people hooked in. This resulted in a match that looks great, but is very sloppy in its narrative with all of its sequences, butchering of spots, misunderstood transitions, bad booking choices like with "The Club", useless characters like the Usos, too long a match time, and flat out STOPPING the whole match just to further the Shane & Stephanie angle.

They needed one billion buys for this match just to break even but they have a writing staff who are destined to mess up the complex characters and unique stories that would have had this match good to see, thus avoiding negative reviews.

If WWE got rid of PG, would they suffer for it financially?
Plenty of kids watched when it wasn't PG because most parents generally don't give a shit when they hear the word wrestling.
I gather they would lose out on some of their sponsors but I think they could easily make up for it with the benefits of non-PG television.
Maybe just have Smackdown remain PG even.

Explain what you think these are.

>>1306992
it's not because parents didn't give a shit, wrestling was public enemy #1 back then for parents.
the best way to get a kid to do something is to convince them they aren't supposed to.

If the ratings went up enough for them to get equally high paying sponsors they'd be fine.

The problem is they can't put on a good enough TV show to do that, PG or non-PG.

What striking/grappling combo is best suited for beating the shit out of drunk people at bars? I want to be a bouncer for this local place but I would like to have some sort of training background. Obviously I wouldn't be able to use weapons, and I'm not terribly large (5'9" king of manlets) so something that could help me take out larger opponents would be ideal

I don't think I've ever posted here, but I've watched wrestling for a while.

Question - why do all fans online now act like you're some idiot if you're not obsessed with skinny fucks like Sami Zayn and Dean Ambrose? It makes wrestling seem stupid as shit when you have these little twinks beating anyone who looks intimidating. I'm not saying everybody has to be Scott Steiner and I get that they can't use as many steroids now, but come on. It's really hard to suspend disbelief, and they all do these dives from the ring where people have to catch them that look phony as hell every time. Dean Ambrose doesn't even seem like a "good" wrestler.

Is it just because people want more CM Punk and Daniel Bryans? Is this just the normal now? I think it's really dumb and takes me out of it, makes me not want to watch much.

Ryback, for example, I think is pretty bad but at least seems like he would whoop your ass in real life. I wouldn't even be a little scared of Sami, Dean, or whoever. Also they're all playing games now on YouTube with New Day which is completely horrible.

Sorry I got off my original topic. I guess I just don't get who is the audience for this stuff now? It doesn't even seem like it's for kids, unless we're talking like three year olds. Why does the internet love skinny people and silly non-intimidating bullshit that makes it all seem even more fake?
