Honestly, it is harder to be unique in 2021 than it was in 1991. The internet and tape trading has essentially created this blending of all wrestling styles. It isn't even the fault of the wrestler because this is the case in many other aspects of life. Fashion, Rap, and athletics. Regional distinctions are practically a thing of the past now.

The current generation is simply doing what every other generation has done before it, copy and overdo what the people they grew up watching did.

It is just what humans do, copy.

I like what you said about many wrestling matches looking like choreographed Kung-Fu flicks and that also takes me out of the viewing process. I enjoy the struggle and grit like you mentioned. If it is too clean, it just doesn't seem like a BATTLE. That is why I prefer wrestling from previous generations because it didn't happen as frequently.

THere are some good things out there still, you just gotta find what works for you.

Someone explain this leg slap thing. Why is IT now banned? What was the use of it and what difference does IT make?

It's not actually banned

They were still doing it as normal during NXT

They do it to make strikes sound more 'impactful'

The leg is slapped to simulate the sports entertainment sound effect of kicking someone.

It is banned because Johnny Gargano and Tomasso Ciampa abuse it, that it makes the fight look really fake, more than a Bucks match or some garbage on AEW.

It makes a difference, uness you are a AEW fan, you like stuff like that.

Kenny Omega slaps his leg 6x doing V-Triggers in his match.

Hope that answers.

Apparently WWE officials have been warning talents about it for years and now they are just fed up.

So it isn't an all of a sudden thing.

This and Toronto promo are my faves.

 

[Canadian Destroyer]

Super kicks dont need the leg slap to simulate the sound effect. IT has been done without IT.
I'm just not sure why Vince would be against IT since he likes everything to seem larger than life.

Cornette definitely wrong for what he said about Penelope Ford.

The fact they are all reacting, he totally won.

They should just ignore him.

He would just move on to something else.

They just gifted him next weeks content.

Let me play devils advocate.

Yes me, you are correct, they could ignore him.

BUT

The fact they are reacting, everyone else is too.

Because as Charmin as it is to react, people are Charmin too.

So Rusev is relating to the people getting htem on his side against Cornette.

What say you?

Jim Cornette is Randy's dad seeing all this reaction.

It doesnt matter, it wasnt right what he did.

 

[Hijo Del Promo]

It doesnt matter, it wasnt right what he did.

What did he do? He talked about a character in a tv show.

It would be like if Kevin Smith in a Wandavision Youtube reaction video said, "I wish they kill Hayworth."

And the dude who plays Hayworth gets mad.

You're the brand name version @hijodelcharmin

THe LEADING BRAND in SOFTNESS.

You like Jim Cornette, great, enjoy while you can. The cancel left is coming for him.

Just like I'm gunning for you.

You sit on a throne, thats outrageous.

Who wants a throne, give me a mountain.

I can build multiple thrones on that mountain, so individuals like you learn the true meaning of leveling up.
