My wife asked me if there was suddenly more wrestling now, and it's because I've been ploughing through Fyter Fest and Summer Blockbuster for about three weeks. I've got 45 minutes of the Blockbuster left. How do people watch both Dynamite and Collision every week? How are WWE fans even alive? 🤼 - ThreadSky

0 kids, so that helps. Also, I'll skip through matches/stories that don't have anyone I'm a fan of. Also some weeks I don't get to it and fall behind and then watch 3 weeks worth of shows in one afternoon. When I watched WWE, skipping things was easy because there were only a few I watched for.

the answer is not having kids, I think

wrestlechaps.bsky.social•6 days ago

Well... Shit.

Bit late to be finding this out.

I have two kids and don't miss a Dynamite or Collision. The trick is finding a convenient time to sit down with DVRed content, preferably when everybody is asleep or playing on tablets.

This 100%. I either dvr or start the shows after they go to bed. Having kids doesn't hinder me watching

awfullywaffly.bsky.social•6 days ago

it’s okay I didn’t mean no one with kids could ever watch wrestling I was just teasing Gazz, other parents can stand down

andrewsnarks.bsky.social•6 days ago

You weren't wrong that it can be a challenge to carve out the time, though, ha ha.

Also my kid is two so nothing holds her attention for any longer than a few minutes, apart from actively trying to injure herself.

I'm sure it'll get easier as she gets more independent, but for right now I am stretched so thin you could project Collision onto me but I wouldn't be able to watch it.

Try making it a family themed watch along, you could take bets on how long it will take Moxley to bleed and the winner is absolved of household chores for the next 48 hours. 😁

I'm not offended lol. It can be difficult at times but can be done

I don't think anyone is watching either company's full slate of 3 shows every week. Even the people reviewing it don't. They read other reviews and argue about things they haven't even watched. It's painfully obvious how much hype and discourse around it isn't actually steeped in the real product.

"Is there suddenly more wrestling now?"

"Don't worry, we're working on reducing it"

The four hour TV shows feel like death from the third hour onwards

octopusmask.bsky.social•6 days ago

That's because you are getting a booked Dynamite for the 1st ad 2nd hour and a booked Collision as the 3rd and 4th hour. And Collision while fun is always an afterthought, and you can't coast on just decent matches for that many hours. They aren't being booked as balanced/comprehensive 4 hr shows.

wrestlechaps.bsky.social•6 days ago

I'm not feeling that myself, but then I have been watching them over the course of several weeks so it's not two four hour shows for me.

It's more like 16 half hour shows.

Sunday morning collision over breakfast or insomnia 🤣
