Both of them are spot-fests. You have a deep misunderstanding of what wrestling psychology is, you fucking simpleton.

Ziggler.

This, if he had an off switch for his overselling and only did it against Kevin Owens then maybe, but as is I'm not going to believe that Tyler breeze Irish whipping you into the turnbuckle causes immeasurable pain

What does poor psychology mean?
>>
>>806631
Psychology is kind of difficult to explain but I view it as the subtleties and intricacies that wrestlers employ during a match to enthrall crowds and sell the story of what's happening in the ring to the fans.
If someone has poor psychology they lack the ability to do this; examples of guys with poor psychology are generally "spotmonkeys", who just rush from move-to-move with no care for the story occurring.
Prominent examples of guys who have great psychology are Foley, Stone Cold, Jake the Snake, Bret Hart and Daniel Bryan.

The Dudleys where pretty good.

>>804088
>One Uso get's dominated for 70% of the match
>Hot tag
>Double Suicide Dive
>Double Superkick
>Superfly Splash

Don't fucking tell me that this is the psychology of all tag teams. I've seen better from Prime Time Players, Vaudvillains, New Day, Jordan and Gable.

It is now.
Botchmonkey
Noun:
One who possesses little to no ring psychology, leaving them only capable of performing spots that they also suffer an inability to perform correctly:
>Paige is a botch-monkey because all she can do are shitty apron flop-dives and superkicks that never connect
>>
>>807533
You missed about eight superkicks from that.

Triple H and Jericho are also good at it. A good way to see if someone has good psychology is if they target a specific limb. If you have two guys with good psychology, then they'll frequently hit a targetted limb, and the other dude will sell it really well.
>>
>>807614
Jericho does it well
Limb targeting is pretty cheap and boring though
>>
>>807614
Triple H doesn't get the credit he deserves for how good he was in-ring in his prime.
Honestly, though, at this point he deserves to be robbed of the props he actually deserves because he's a toxic influence in so many ways who systematically picked apart his own legacy by shoving himself down people's throats.
>>
>>803710
Actually yes it is. If they suck at transitioning from one spot to the other it just looks robotic. Quickly going through the motions. Gets you of the match.
>>

4chan is just like any other website. Nothing weird.

That's because those 4 teams are significantly better than The Uso's
>>
>>807766
>PTP
>significantly better than the Usos

One of the very few teams I can think of who are worse than the Usos.
At least the Usos can do their spots well. Titus is a fumbling buffoon who can barely walk, let alone wrestle. And Darren is such a bland human being I forget he's in a match even when he's getting the hot-tag.
