It took up a lot of the spring and summer in Impact. It was going on forever while they were hosting Busted Open together, like why?

@TheBenjamin if you think it was bad on TV I was at so many Impact shows this year I was live for some of the tv build and TWO of the ppv matches. My take away from all the shows is Dreamer should just go away lol

I am just so beyond sick of Dreamer giving those âpassionateâ promos every few weeks. He just needs to go away. Embarrassing at this point.

Iâve recently gotten into watching Raw and Smackdown on Hulu. And I think the â90 minute, heavily curated and edited, no commercials, still able to fast forward through the crapâ version of Raw is definitely the best wrestling show on TV.

Feel exactly the same. Adding Punk to it has been the icing on the cake.
When I was doing my personal best ofs, I legitimately considered putting in SmackDown on Hulu as the best weekly wrestling TV show. Itâs one hour. Can watch it on Sunday, the day Iâm usually just home all day. Also the two YouTube Channels âWWEonFoxâ and âWWEonUSAâ are great too. Theyâll put on full 15 mins segment almost as soon as they air. WWE right now is just so easy to consume outside of weekly TV.

Sorry this took so long, I thought it would take me like 20min, but I was way off lol. Some people had multiple votes for categories and I didnât want to go into decimals or give anyone two votes, so I just used the first option (assuming they didnât specify one over the other).

Out of curiosity, have you soured on New Japan? If memory serves me right, last year you were much more of a fan of New Japan then AEW and much more down on AEW, but this year AEW swept your best ofâs.
Yeah I have on NJPW. The problem is for me itâs the same old shit over and over again.
I donât want to see another Okada 30 mins main event that ends in a Rainmaker. Iâm done with that.
No more Okada vs Naito or whatever else they repeddle. Their best matches are the ones that involve AEW talent.
To be blunt- all of wrestling sucks right now. I donât watch my bc of anything. However AEW has the best PPVs and thatâs all I watch anywY

I get that, that was always my issue with NJPW. No doubt the in-ring is amazing, but for the most part I didnât care and had no emotional Investment.
