Unironically this. Cody knows a lot of wrestling fans are disenfranchised with the knowledge that they're a withering niche, plagued by the fact that wrestling will never be as big as it once was. It's a fad past it's hype.
He's a smart guy, pandering to them. They're evidently getting worked by the shtick

>the attitude era has been done for almost two decades

There's an entire market dedicated to nostalgia dollars. Go look at the meet & greets for Starrcast II, half of them are Attitude Era stars. There are dozens of podcasts that do nothing but revisit and rehash the Attitude Era each week. Boomers talk about it like WCW is still alive and thriving.

The Attitude Era might have ended 2 decades ago, but old cucks won't shut the hell up about it. They have ridden the Atitude Era memes to death. So Cody is going to finally kill it.

>Cody is going to finally kill it
Nothing will kill it because wrestling's in a downward spiral in America and the AE was the last significant thing it did.
You think some moneymark company is gonna do shit? You think WWE is gonna spring back.
Get used to hearing about the Attitude Era, ya lil seether, because Austin and Rock are the last names wrestling will produce in the West. Wrestling is ding-dong diddly die and there's nothin ya can do about it

AH HA HA WAIT ARE PEOPLE REALLY INTO THIS SIMP SHIT??

You're right but you don't get wrestling better by endlessly cashing in on nostalgia, do that and all you do is further convince the audience it used to be better. What Cody's doing is exactly what you should do, technically what every company should do, people have just been brainwashed by the poorly booked nostalgia pandering from big companies in recent years. Convincing your viewing audience they're watching something fresh is imperative.

>Triple H
>a draw
One is not like the other

This is what wrestling used to be all about. Even in WWE, before they went public, before they turned a wrestling show into a sorta soap opera where wrestlers act backstage pretending a camera isn't there, like it's a stupid sitcom or a reality show....this is wrestling....you look into the camera, you cut a promo and you give the fans a fucking reason to show up, to turn on the tv, to buy the tickets to watch a wrestling show and be proud of doing so.

Punk was a real SHOOTER. He PAID HIS DUES on the INDIES. His Ring of Honor RUN was classic. He didn't rely on cliche CATCHPHRASES. Punk was a WORKER and Rock was just a sports-entertainer.

But still, Cody's delivery was on point and I understand he's selling an angle through a character's beliefs, even though those beliefs aren't accurate

>Fan interest may be at an all-time low. The key figures that indicate fan interest, event attendance and merchandise, are all drastically down. This is not a popular product. And the thing is they've been listening to the fans. They pushed Daniel Bryan, and Becky, and Kofi. But it hasn't worked. The one real star that WWE has made, John Cena, has been absent. And that could explain it all. But John Cena is not there anymore. Who do they have to replace him? Who's a real star? They don't have any. And the thing is, John Cena wasn't even a star on the level of Austin, Dwayne, and Hogan. Where is this going? It's scary. The under age 35 interest in the product is at all-time lows. They're not making new fans.
This was a really good promo. Got heat for the match and bascially encapsulated the greentext for Meltzer into what AEW needs to do: make new fans, and make the wrestling industry better. Everything he says about the Attitude Era and WWE riding that forever and not being able to make new stars is correct.

necro

Literally all of the Attitude Era things he was shitting on drew more dimes than anything AEW will.

The idea of people rating wrestling matches is so weird to me. liking a spot or two is cool and all but rating the match based on "muh psychology" and "muh storytelling" is so fucking gay. I just want funny promos, hoss fights, and the occasional flippy shitter bumping his neck.

Why am I supposed to be excited by worked shoot promos? Tell me a story that has consistency and stays within its own logical limits. A match being 'better' than another shouldnt be on the mind of a wrestling character. They should want to win, not delay or put their win at risk to entertain the crowd.

I want Stardust back.

LMFAO

People go back to the Attitude Era because late 2000/early 2001 was the last time that wrestling understood what it needs to be in order to appeal to people who aren't 70 year old nostalgiafags who will always watch wrestling no matter what. It was crazy, edgy, manly, impromptu fun.

Appealing to "woke" smarks is how you follow in the footsteps of the comic industry. Wrestling as a fake sport doesn't sell, either.

And you want it to come back and you think bringing back the same stuff in AE will make it, right?
It won't, because you are 20 years older. You will never feel hopeful as you did back then.

Holy cringola this is the most Reddit promo of all time

I don't follow AEW so how is this shitter going to kill the attitude era?

By beating a midcarder from that era?(Dustin)

The same boomers crying ITT are the same fuckers who stayed with the sinking ship known as the AWA back in the early 90's

tldr; y'all are gonna die of old age in 5 years LMAO

No, unlike delusional AEW marks i know there is never going to be another boom period in wrestling, media consumption is so different now, there are no new fans to be made. If WWE dies, mainstream wrestling goes with it.

>y'all
You're not a southern working man zoomer.

That is just turn of the phrase.
The killing is not the match. The killing is the start of something new, something with vision from someone who wasn't there when AE was around.
Also.
I know Yea Forums and wrestling fans in general are dumb as fuck. But... How can you not watch the promo and understand what he means.
Hell. English is third language I learned and I self-taught it to myself. And I can understand what he means very clearly. Do you really need someone to tell you all the major storytelling beats?

Sup Hangman!

Yup, exactly.
I don't mind being consumer of niche media. I was reading comics in late nineties.
I was a nerd my whole life. Nothing changed, just more people watch stuff made from books I read two decades ago.

Based promo. The Attitude Era nostalgia has retarded the industry for nearly 15 years. It's time to fucking move on.

Didn't he have Hangman try to kill himself at All In?

>The killing is the start of something new, something with vision from someone who wasn't there when AE was around.

Yes and my question was is beating Dustin going to Symbolize that? I was asking because he mentioned his brother a lot.

Heck even then the attitude era has been dead for more than a decade. Saying he is going to kill it in 2019 is bizarre for me.

>English is third language I learned and I self-taught it to myself.

I can see that you're not a native English speaker with this atrocious sentence.

We would if something as worthwhile would have came along. Is it so wrong to want fucking good product?

>I can see that you're not a native English speaker with this atrocious sentence.
Thank you, user, I know. I can read, listen and understand everything. I am just shit at constructing sentences.
>Yes and my question was is beating Dustin going to Symbolize that?
In a way. Painted up Goldust, his gimmick, his feuds, everything he did back then, encapsulate the whole AE. he is not a symbol for that, that would be Stone Cold. But they are not getting him to come to get beaten by Cody, do they.
Goldust is not like the best symbol, but still, beating him is passing of the torch from one Rhodes to another. Something WWE never really did and Dusty fucked up in WCW.

>Is it so wrong to want fucking good product?
No. And that is a reason why you should want AEW to succeed very, very bad.
Because even if you won't watch, maybe that is the kick in the pants Vince McMahon needs.

>Thank you, user, I know. I can read, listen and understand everything. I am just shit at constructing sentences.
Well not bad for a third language I guess.

Yeah only problem is so far Ive seen them hire bunch of vanilla midgets and their OWNER and FUNDER talking about being a fucking Meltzer mark and star ratings and le workrate.

Even if I did(the product doesn't appeal to me but still for arguments sake) it wouldn't make much of difference.

WCW went for straight for a wider audience and you would've been right in supporting them as an alternative to WWF. AEW is not, they're going for the same smark cringe audience that has become niche. If this promo is any indication it's very unlikely it will become a genuine competition to the E. It would be like supporting ECW in those days hoping they would beat the evil McMahon.

WWE is more likely to kill itself than get reinvigorated by AEW.

Can you at least watch something without caring if it draws or not, faggot. You're not the owner of the company, you shouldn't care about shit like that.

in 2019 it can. Kids these days are into flashy shit and couldn't care less about storylines. I do agree that character building is important, but LOLFORTNITE FLOSS is popular

>Meltzer mark and star ratings and le workrate.
The thing is with killing AE? They need to move further back. Into territory days, where larger than life characters did everything in the ring. But it all made sense and not like in AE, when there were twists just because they wanted to have a twist instead of building a story properly.
I am not saying it will kill it. I do not think that. That is impossible. They will be (just as you say) even more niche than WWE is right now. But they are smartly going for the more afluent customer. Customer that is willing to spend a shitload of money for their shows.
We will see how the TV show shakes up. Their live gates are so far prretty good.
I am saying that you should be cheering AEW on (in whatever they do, even if it isn't for you), because even perceived competetion for WWE is good for WWE's trying harder to make better TV shows.

I will gladly eat my hat when AEW draws over 2 million people on a regular.

I dont care about that type of wrestling. Lack of selling, psychology and too many high spots with matches looking like guys been rehearsing em backstage all day.

So instead you worry about which wrestler has the most money, great, that's an awesome style of wrestling

>couldn't care less about storylines
Not really true. The matches that are received the best have the story told by the moves. You can see it clearly reflected iun matches that are the most hyped.
Voices of Wrestlign match of the year 2017 was Shibata vs. Okada. No flips there. LITERALLY, NO FLIPS. And the match was awesome for the story.
2018 was the same. The matches that were consentually the best across the board, are those that tell the best story within those 4 ropes.
I know, I know, smark city and shit like that. But that's where the market is now. The people you want to get to watch your shit are people who appreaciate that, who are now watching all that capeshit. You cannot, because WWE killed their love of wrestling, get rednecks to care.

No. Rock, Austin, Foley, Triple H etc. were great wrestlers and they didnt flop around because they were bigger guys.
