damn, RoH has really fallen these passed few years, huh?
wait... why does the apron say smackdown?
Do you think WWE 2K20 will have tarped arenas
DLC
Smackdown Live, more like Smackdown Dead.
they should replace the star rating system with a rating based on the number of tarps in the arena with a catch that no matter how good your match is half the arena will have tarps because even the games are dimes repellent garbage
WHEN THE E COMES AROUND AND THERE'S SEATS TO HIDE
YOU GOTTA LAY THE TARPS ON THE HARDCAM SIDE
HOLY FUCKING BASED

Pack it up, E-Chads.
We’re not coming back from this.

The Ace of Tarps. Never thought I'd be alive to see the day.
Portland is PNW territory and don't you forget it McMahon!
You can choke your opponent with the curtain.
Fucking kek
When I saw this just now I was overwhelmed with sadness and nostalgia for the days gone that we will never get back again, some of the best years of my life, but also sadness that this is long gone forever and I have just been holding onto a memory of what was once great, living in the past, living in denial, and wasting so much of my time on this.
It’s over bros. It’s time to move on and start living in the moment again by leaving pro wrestling in the past where it belongs.
Fuck... I remember that feeling... yeah that’s never coming back. There no star that creates this again. The spontaneity and energy and creativity is gone from this company permanently and it’s never coming back.
kek even my little sisters high school graduation from a class of like 330 didn't have the bottom part of the bowl tarped off and the arena was basically the same capacity
What is this a reference to
So long as there's a market, entrepreneurs who understand the industry, and a platform, a revival is always possible. I wouldn't hold my breath on the revival being spearheaded by Vince or Paul, though. They've let this thing die a slow death for ad bucks in the here and now for literally almost two fucking decades at this point, and they're not showing any signs of trying to turn away from the iceberg now that they've realized that impact is imminent. I wouldn't look to AEW to save the industry from cottage industry status, either. Normies are going to see their embarrassing pandering to the far left and change the channel immediately.
I understand that its a tv show first so they need the high ceilings and lighting and such, but there is so much dead space in the area they area using. A slighty smaller arena that sacrifices some tv production would probably make for a better atmosphere and thus a better show.

at what point does Vince bite the bullet and start booking smaller venues?
wrestling will never be this cool again
god it all seems like a dream now

Where did it all go so wrong?
When WWE become publicly traded company imo, that’s when Vince became a fucking cuck and a money mark and started sucking dicks instead of giving people the middle finger and not giving a fuck
Pretty much this.
redpill: when Stone Cold and The Rock told Vince to stick this job straight up his candy ass
>Investors/Partners: Oy vey, some middle aged hoarder who belongs in an insane asylum called and complained that your show is corrupting the youth! This crazy cunt was clearly a great representation of the population as a whole and of your target market, so that means that we can't give you money unless you make your product as boring as she'd have it!
>Vince: Sure pal, boring it is!
Their use of the RAW bright lighting and gigantic HD hard camera feel so soulless. It’s like watching a 3 hour long commercial because everything is shot so...artificially. The light and audio levels feel almost exactly like a fast food commercial. Literally just background noise to ignore. Don’t know why but shittier cameras and gritty lighting just works 10x better for wrestling.

pretty simple, wrestling isn't suppose to be pretty and it's presentation shouldn't be either
OH NONONONO
Someone write a full version pls
And the stage looks like a display at a tech expo. You shouldn't picture some blue hair messaging on its iphone when designing a goddamn wrestling set. You should think of a bunch of rowdy guys coming to watch a fight between super heroes and super villains. No incarnation of Batman would be at his best when charging in from the TV promotion center at your local Best Buy.

I know SC wasn't happy with his booking, rightfully so honestly, but why Rock went to try out for Hollywood? He just wanted to or something else?
who wouldn't want to get paid more money and not wake up in pain every morning?
mmmmmmmmm pure tarps
>rightfully so
>be booked as a god for years
>''Alright Steve, time to pay yer dues''
>''Nah, that finish wont work for me''
they need the room for the new 4k camera setup

In fairness to Steve did lesnar really need the win over him?
