I think this is the thing that unites the country and brings World Peace

jonberthold.bsky.social•85 days ago

Twitter is fundamentally broken. It's all pure engagement bait nonsense at this point

demwrestling.bsky.social•85 days ago

It's rage after rage.

The number #1 rule is: you gotta be mad at something.

iownadreamcast994.bsky.social•85 days ago

I don't want it to be a squash. Just have Swerve win clean and not drag it out but let Max look decent.

I've been playing Journey of Wrestling (because I'm too old to enjoy TEW anymore. I'm easily confused), and these people should be forced to book a show where Steve Austin, Bret Hart, and Sycho Sid are all injured and the only "over" acts in the company are Shawn Michaels and Goldust. Dark times.

ebeza.bsky.social•84 days ago

Gotta look at the positives! You have a real, valid situation where you can make Goldust WWF Champion!

I remember a database where a dude was putting all worst version of a wrestler in term of backstage impact.

The game started and after a month or so it was crazy, guy getting flagged for drugs at every show, people complaining everywhere. Brawl every day.

murb93.bsky.social•85 days ago

lol that sounds fantastic, I'll have to find that one. Right now, I'm attempting to push a Jake Roberts/Mankind feud and Jake keeps skipping shows. It's a real problem! Splitting the Bodydonnas and giving Chris Candido Sunny as a manager has worked great, though. Also, jobbing Undertaker out to him.

tewanxiousbooker.bsky.social•85 days ago

Roberts Mankind that's a feud for ages, get your stuff together Roberts!

I always pick Candido when playing end of 90s starts of 2000s

murb93.bsky.social•85 days ago

I rarely ever make it more than a couple of months in, but my plan right now since I'm in 1996 is to run what looks more like a modern show with the top of the card being Austin, HBK, Candido, The Hardys, Edge and Christian, and whatever I can poach from WCW.

tewanxiousbooker.bsky.social•85 days ago

Speaking of WCW I tried the database where WCW is bought by Shane, such a funny thing to do having the freedom to choose what business plan, how many shows and having the challenge to create a lot of new stars

tewanxiousbooker.bsky.social•85 days ago

Don't know if it was available since I think the dude made customize it by using some other data but it was fun to see.

I stopped playing recently after booking a few months of modern AEW, got lost with all my storylines. Should start a brand new save but waiting for some database to drop on TEW

ebeza.bsky.social•84 days ago

I'm still on TEW 2020 until more mods drop for IX. About a month into a WCW 1993 save atm!

demwrestling.bsky.social•85 days ago

Everything is easy to deal with when it's not you the responsible lol

cnamha.bsky.social•84 days ago

TK - Does the impossible by building a viable, profitable, US alternative to the WWE that reignites the interest of lapsed fans and launches a new era for the indies and interpromotional cooperation

Some idiot on Twitter - TK has no clue what he's doing, he has to go

demwrestling.bsky.social•84 days ago

And there are so many of them lmaooo

cnamha.bsky.social•84 days ago

I suspect a significant percentage are bots, paid for or just losers with too much time and multiple accounts

wrassletrash.is.goblin.fyi•85 days ago

I ain't been over there in weeks at this point but this does not surprise me in the slightest lmao

demwrestling.bsky.social•84 days ago

Oh, and ratings. It is still a big thing there that people really talk and write essays about.

wrassletrash.is.goblin.fyi•84 days ago

I have no idea what any of the ratings were for the past month and that delights me.

neonghosts.bsky.social•84 days ago

Isn't it nice just to enjoy the wrestling we like?

wrassletrash.is.goblin.fyi•84 days ago

It's fucking lovely

nofunatparties.bsky.social•84 days ago

Guess now that quite a bit of AEW fanbase has moved here, the fuckwits must be running amok with relative less pushback?

wrestlingmark.bsky.social•84 days ago

Yep, I had a quick glance this morning.c it’s legitimately depressing how angry everyone is. And that they all seem to be terminally online

demwrestling.bsky.social•84 days ago

Seriously, it's just people dooming and glooming about wrestling as a whole or dunking on each other. It's insanely toxic 😭

42pigeons.bsky.social•84 days ago

But how can we ever have a constructive discussion about wrestling if we don't complain exclusively about things that don't effect us 🤣

demwrestling.bsky.social•84 days ago

The fun part of wrestling xD

patricknguyen19.bsky.social•85 days ago

This, the discourse over Anna Jay vs. Penelope Ford, and now people having meltdown over the Outrunners getting over with people

tomdanks.bsky.social•84 days ago

Man I had no idea how much dooming they've been doing over there. Just checked and left immediately. I swear it's all driven by podcasters and talking heads, just people regurgitating talking points over and over again. Must be exhausting being that miserable.

thekareemofwheat.bsky.social•85 days ago

I like it here

demwrestling.bsky.social•85 days ago

so much better

neonghosts.bsky.social•84 days ago

God damn I'm happy I'm not on Twitter anymore places I'm at now threads and blue sky I think I've only seen like one or two of those types of reactions ever 🤣

demwrestling.bsky.social•84 days ago

Right? I really don't see this shit here or on Threads. Love How different they are from Elon's playground

snapgrapplepop.wrestling.chat•85 days ago

Wondering whether, instead of a squash, we get the Acclaimed/Hurt Syndicate development that people were anticipating at Full Gear

demwrestling.bsky.social•85 days ago

We will probably get it too, Bowens is tired of Caster's stupid ass

talkingsmack.bsky.social•85 days ago

Am I missing something? I actually really wanna see that match 😂

neonghosts.bsky.social•84 days ago

Probably the puro Dorks thinking that every single match on the show should be the likes of Will Ospreay versus Kenny Omega. I got nothing against them personally but those guys get a little too involved

demwrestling.bsky.social•84 days ago

Yeah they thinking everything needs to cater to them and them only and that's why you can't enjoy goofy shit like The Outrunners'

neonghosts.bsky.social•84 days ago

Honestly sounds miserable lol
