Soon to rebrand from “game” to “merch”

Do you think the man who went into a match with broken ankle and hand, only to break another ankle has even been in the general vicinity of a medical professional, let alone talked to one?

I wonder if there is a way to fix this in the shortest amount of time! I wonder if there is a way to fix this in the shortest amount of time.

Bro stop, you’re gonna be held up by studs and bolts if you keep going like that.

My money says NJPW dates

The words change, the business stays the same. Been that way since mass effect 3 and dragon age 2, at least.

You can already watch aew streaming, just get a VPN and use Triller.tv.

It’s way better too, no commercial breaks.

It’s such a nonsensical point too, some of the best wrestling I’ve seen is in Stardom and TJPW, which have crowds in the thousands and no tv deals in the US. If ratings meant anything other than “old people watch this” there would be a very different breakdown there.

That shit is honestly cancerous, popularity is by far the worst metric for anything remotely approaching quality, and nielsen ratings are not even good proxies for that.

Happy birthday! Love this little slice of the IWC, especially how non-tribalistic it is.

Thanks everyone for making this a nice place to be.

“I know right from wrong”

And wrong is whatever does not work for him, brother.

I wonder if Copeland joining was a factor at all in Matt leaving or nah.

You’d hope all this time later they’d be fine but who knows.

Either way the Hardys are in no state to run it back against E&C

Probably? Most companies for like, a couple matches.

He’s not reliable long term but if he’s clean long enough he’s still a draw somehow.

Ikr, I live in the Netherlands and not only do i not wear a helmet myself but I’ve seen dutch people ride with no hands, holding an umbrella and a phone, with bikebags full of groceries, in the rain, without a helmet.

That shit is close to a circus act, istg.

None of the promos I care about even have TV broadcasts lol.

Streaming is the future.

Hidetaka Miyazaki has eyes and ears, more at 11.

Potentially* less

LMAO that’s both idiotic and hilarious, somehow I love it.

Game journalism is a marketing tool. When pieces come out preemptively defending a product (any product) from some specific criticism, it’s because the company is both confident that those criticisms will be levied, and that they won’t shake out favourably.

That’s it, that’s the whole reasoning.

They know they won’t come out looking in any way comparable in terms of scope, quality, etc, and they’re putting their hands forward through their connections with the press, hoping at least some people will buy this obvious attempt at ass covering and refrain from publicly criticising their product.
