Moxley is Wile E. Kenta is Road Runner. Kenny's Tweety. Archer is Taz.

[@ASwagPecan]

Honestly, Moxley's soft body just comes from Tony Kahn's inability to grow a spine and be a bold owner/booker. Vince expects his talent to work just as hard as him in the gym (hell, he even made Kevin Owens get in shape for a bit) meanwhile, Tony wants to play the constant nice guy so they just end up dragging his company down with their ability to get away with stuff. Notice how Jericho and Janela are other examples of lazy, flabby men looking to scoop an easy paycheck.

[@jessepaiz6356]

As a guy who closest exposure to japenese wrestling is Pride FC and Pancrase, I dont get the hype for Kenta. From what I've seen of him in nxt, he essentially throw a whole bunch of kicks. But it's not like he throws a variety of them from at impressive speeds or angles. Ive never seen him throw a scorpion kick, a hook kick, or some other cool looking kick. He simply throws normal kicks. While its nice he doesnt kill the guy he is wrestling, unlike a certian druggie ECW wrestler, the kicks arent particularly impressive. Beyond that he seems to have little else is his arsenal. He doesnt seem to really grapple much, have many submissions, or even do a lot of high flying. Does anyone know what we are suppossed to be excited to see?

[@insupportofjunhado]

I recall him having some exciting matches with three hundred plus pound guys like Takeshi Morishima where he'd have to find ways to outwrestle or out maneuver them, or strike contests where he'd have to out stiff guys like Low Ki, but honestly he's a junior heavyweight in NOAH who got moved up to the heavyweight ranks because ladies bought tickets to see him. I don't think he's bad, but he had a bad habit of giving out potatoes with his Go To Sleep and running high knee strike. Of course CM Punk and Bryan Danielson, two of ROH's most popular wrestlers who crossed over successfully to WWE, using the go to sleep and running high knee, just make KENTA all the more popular. And he's heavily associated with Kenta Kobashi. He's Kobashi's "successor" so to speak. Also, he ran kick ass power stables like Disobey and No Mercy, which had popular feuds with other stables like CHAOS and Suzuki-gun.

One thing I absolutely hate int Allin vs Janela match is commentary is still giving us a back story on these guys as if they are new and it’s the first time we see them. The company has been around over a year now we should know these wrestlers now. But because inconsistent bad booking we don’t. Watching Dynamite was like watch the seminar training school B show Dark.

During Jim's time in WWF/E there were more "no dq" matches than ever before. Are we just going to ignore that for the sake of it now not being ok to have a no dq match? Or did Cornette need to find something new to bitch about to keep his cult entertained?

@@greyXstar Oh yeah Corny fanbase love to use the same terminology as their lord and savior. On Twitter all you'll here is "outlaw mud show", "Kenny Olivie", and "play wrestling" from them cuz they dont have a brain of their own and think whatever Jim says about wrestling is the word of God.

[@ak96ful1]

He has to find something new to bitch about otherwise who will watch him. His AEW reviews/rants are what are growing his channel. Also Cornette bashes WWE to a minimal and wont say many negative things about Vince McMahon cuz he has to maintain a healthy relationship with them since they include him in some of their documentaries and let him induct Rock N Roll to the Hall of Fame in 2017. The only reason he shits on Raw is because its so bad even he cant defend it. But notice how he'll say things like "If only MJF was in the WWF on the big stage in a professional company, he'd be a millionaire". Ive heard him say that many times too which is dumb as hell considering how they would ruin him in 3 weeks.
