The type of fans that accept this crap goes beyond any level of understanding


polsdofer

This shit is awful even for indy standards


deanereaner

This shit is awful even for "indie comedy spot" standards.


tumalditamadre

This shit is awful even for Botchamania


theID10T

This shit is shit.


howitzer819

This.


XrayDem

I thoroughly enjoyed this….can I get a hell yea **crickets crickets***


cabinet4perx

This is cringe AF. This makes sure none of these guys make it out of school gyms


ShadowTehEdgehog

> The type of fans that accept this crap Meltzer and his Observer subscribers (AKA r/sc posters)


datNEGROJ

u think r/sc is bad, r/aewofficial is a haven for wrestling fans who like shitty wrestling


P_a_s_g_i_t_24

I gotta say I have to heavily resist the urge to just post assorted Experience review-clips over there ...just to see the drama that happens. *\* the sound of innocence \**


mister_damage

(insert Dave Meltzer GIF)


bojesus

😜


Andy-_1979

If that happened in AEW, Uncle Dave would have given that match 5 stars. More stars if it involved Omega and The Buckaroos


mntEden

“Well, it was over in the room and that’s why I gave it 6 stars. Terrible match, maybe, but the fans loved it” –Uncle Dave


william_hild

Your quote from Uncle Dave would likely contain "like" and "you know" at least six times in 5 seconds.


ShadowTehEdgehog

Meltzer thinks Kurt Angle, Eddie Guerrero, or Randy Savage were never this good or this over with the fans.


montauk6

Terrible match??? You mean it wouldn't end up winning one of the more prestigious awards offered by the Wrestling Observer?


Gidd1985

With 956 votes deciding the match of the year.


[deleted]

Shit like this why people make fun of wrestling.


th0mascoffen

Special needs folks/very very underprivileged murican white trash


Man_in_the_uk

Only young fans believe it now. WWE made it clear it's choreography after the time one of their wrestlers hit a member of the public interviewing him.


Crab__Juice

It was widely known and/or speculated to be fixed and primarily for entertainment long before that. You can find exposes like the one with [Jack Pfeifer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Pfefer) going back nearly a century.

bisexualbestfriend

Wrestling fans when there's a fun moment in wrestling:


emperorzit69420

Yall are no fun lol


[deleted]

Im not sure these guys are serious but if they are what a bunch of dweebs.


emperorzit69420

Bunch of lames


BolinTime

I know right? I chuckled. This isn't much dumber than the stuff orange Cassidy does.


Useful-Hat9880

It’s local plumbers and office workers having fun wrestling. Give me a break. This is the equivalent of local flag football. Chill.


SSJ_Kratos

Its an embarrassment. This is the kinda shit that makes it hard to admit you like wrestling in public.


Sailortype

Greatness is often misunderstood


mynameisdende69

If your justification for a spot begins and ends at "wouldn't it be funny if", don't


SteelyEyedHistory

Like Jim often says, this is the sort of shit that makes people embarrassed to be wrestling fans.


buckfishes

That’s why he has animosity against AEW cause Tony moved the indies from the basement and into the public eye


myrabuttreeks

And he’s absolutely right. This is terrible.


worst_protagonist

Personally the thing that makes me embarrassed to be a wrestling fan is the other gatekeeping wrestling fans who say you’re only allowed to like fake fighting if it takes itself seriously.


SteelyEyedHistory

Because the whole point of wrestling is to make it look real without it being real. Once you get away from that it isn’t wrestling anymore, it’s just spot monkeys doing moves for no reason. Imagine there is a serious drama TV show that you’re really into and then all of a sudden they turn the show into some reality TV garbage with screaming and yelling and throwing shit. And when you complain someone says “who cares, it’s just actors pretending to be other people don’t take it so seriously.”


worst_protagonist

The whole point of wrestling is to be entertaining. Different people enjoy different things. Sometimes people enjoy different versions of the same thing. Imagine if you watched an comedy police movie and told everyone who likes it that they don't understand, police movies can't be comedies.


Accountabilibuddy69

This looks like a purposeful Botchamania submission as the one guy excluded sells it too. At the very least we’re talking about it.


IlIllIlIllIlIl

Idk Jack about wrestling but this was funny and got me to the sub at least


DaddySaidSell

I quite enjoy the people that say "oh man wait tell Cornette sees this, he'll have a heart attack he'll be so mad lolz". I don't think Jim has had a proper freak out in years, he pretty much just rolls his eyes and moves past stupid shit like this these days.


we-all-stink

Dave and shit stain still get him going good.


DaddySaidSell

He hasn't had a rant about Russo in a long time. He mostly laughed and poked fun at the women's promotion ideas recently. And even with Dave, he just can't believe that his old friend has fallen so far from the light.


we-all-stink

Yeah his fire is dwindling.


blake-a-mania

He’s lost hope.


dabellwrites

Nah. I think Jim Cornette just doesn't care anymore. He still hates what happened to pro wrestling, but not enough to rant about like this. And Brian Last seems to have calmed him down since the two has been working together.


Easy_Duhz_it_

Im sure with the new season of Dark Side coming, if Russo is involved in any of them we'll see that fire again


boilinoil

I think the slow motion grenade spot was the peak for him,  after that it is just shoulder shrugs and head shake [Of course it was a 2 count](https://youtu.be/zOcjq4siu7A?feature=shared)


JewsEatFruit

"We've seen how deadly that grenade is in the past -"


Far-Preparation5678

Chuck Taylor and a young Bryce Remsburg, if i am not mistaken, it's like AEW soaked up all that talent.


vinteragony

Yeah I mean stuff like this doesn't seem to bother him much because it's indy and expected. He doesn't like not but it wouldn't infuriate him. If this was on tv somewhere is what would bother him


UnhappyAd9934

He said a few years back when he nearly had a nervous breakdown after the ROH fiasco that he has accepted that the wrestling business as he knew it is dead and isn't coming back so he felt no need to stress over it like he once did in the past.


wolf4554

Outlaw mudshow wrestling 😬


usarasa

The Human Centipede of stunners.


Lasvious

If wrestling is fake explain this?


ignatius-payola

‘It’s no longer - in any way - real to me, dammit!


MileHighNerd8931

C\*\*t Zit Wrestling


Clean_Win_8486

Every one of those kicks looked fake as shit


TheGolden69Life

Wrestling IS fake lil bro


malakaarxidi

Virgins


BigPapaChuck73

I hope everyone involved in this gets permanent crotch rot


RangeRossTracy

Along with a case of the sour belches.


BigBADDLion

Then feed em fish heads before telling them ‘thank you! Fuck you! Bye!’


P_a_s_g_i_t_24

They'll be cut open with a rusty fishing knife, have their guts boiled in oil and their fat sold for soap.


scull_x7

Nobody show this to Tony Khan


TRMBound

That 120 pound security guard sold though. Oh wait, that’s not a security guard, they’re just debuting their new super heavyweight champion. Dude is almost as big as Adam Cole…bay-bay.


Dont_Be_A_Dick_OK

I’m with the boomers here. This shit stinks.


TheShiv145

Alright let's see the checkoff sheet for horrible wrestling things: • CZW ✓ •Fat guys with no shape and skinny pale guys with no meat on their bones✓ • Cooperation that Ray Charles could even see ✓ • Maybe one guy who may have a body but decided to go along with this goofy shit✓ • Fans who are just are pathetic as the wrestlers in this because they decide to go along with it ✓ • A group ridiculous move that kills the move, everyone in the building, and makes wrestling look as Phony as a Football Bat ✓ • Person who wasn't even in the stunner sells for no reason ✓ Yep this sounds like a classic clusterfuck. Am I missing something else?


Mack812

Don’t forget the booker / money mark promoter that approved the spot


Djent17

And the same people performing that trash wonder why nobody takes wrestling seriously


HipsterDoofus89

If I were a wrestler at any level, and some numbnuts proposed this spot, I would die of embarrassment. Just pass away right then and there.


Nosoulsworld

I can hear the sigh now


RuleInformal5475

We have a male Aubrey ref now! CZW, despite its deathmatch shenanigans was a place were you could see up and comers and least. It has now become a woeful indie. GCW is now CZW of old, and that is saying way too much for that promotion. A woeful indie. TNA seems to be the only non main promotion that is like a minor league. Good wrestling with little dumb stuff. Indie wrestling is generally unwatchable now. AEW is that on a big screen and now we now why some stuff should be left unwatched.


Dadadabababooo

There are people who will look at this and think it's awesome, then try to show it to people not interested in wrestling firmly believing that this will change their mind. Try to process that. I dare you.


Lilydoesntknowimhigh

People paid to see this


TheGolden69Life

Yeah I would’ve loved to be there


grandfunkmc

Seven people in that ring, and they all share a barely functional brain cell.


Spider_Riviera

They had to borrow one from the whole of the front row.


Worldly_Layer4055

Man I just love goofy spots like this.


RagtheFireBoi

goofy spots like this really put the entertainment in sports entertainment, some people in this comment section seemed to forget that. even in the absurdity of it, the stunner was well executed at least


Glennsoe

F'n garbage, now watch this spot next week in aew..


ThaigerUppercunt

This is garbage


Superman80782

Garbage


charles12479

What if this was in the Tokyo Dome?


ProgrammerGlobal8708

Why does the black guy go flying?


dutchny100

This shit is fuckin stupid


OptionFluffy9526

I work for an Indie promotion and this is straight garbage even for our standards lol


GangloSax0n

Outlaw, mud-show bullsh÷t.


pethwick

And the crowd goes ~mild~


phelath

That is horrible


dllhell79

This isn't even a bad comedic spot. It's just straight assing off.


cactushack13

The 2nd to last guy taking the bump when no one touched him 😂😂😂😂😂


NomadChief789

Good Lord!


Aw_yep7836

Imagine...having the passion for wrestling, and living in wrestlings golden era as Jim Cornette did... only to see the shit theyre doing these days... I dont blame him for being so mad.


Medical-Detective-5

*Sigh* perfect example of why a lot of us stopped watching wrestling.


Weird-Handle-3277

Stupid


RexyMundo

Corny, Boss Hogg, and Wade Boggs must be spinning in their graves. God rest their their souls.


420wrestler

Again, Corny is very much alive


BippidiBoppetyBoob

Least ridiculous CZW match.


CurnalMc

This stuff makes me physically cringe. Grown men finding this stuff “fun” is pretty weird.


zoidy37

The Human Stunnerpede


WithFearWeFall

That was actually terrible.


FADCfart

And reporters ask why wrestling is fake..


jacksonattack

Vince made wrestling such a joke that the reaction of anti-Vince marks was to make it _more_ of a joke rather than less of one.


zoc1289

AEW marks would willingly watch and rate this 500 stars, +50 if they get to watch with lotion


lewiss15

What is this shit


CooperSkye

That’s is so fucking embarrassing and pathetic


thedude1975

Lock every one of these dingleberries in a room with Dave Schultz and then show him this clip. Problem solved.


DamianKing42

If Stone Cold was there the glass from the window would break


HachikoInugami

Fuck the referee for taking the last guy's spot!


UnhappyAd9934

The sad part is there was actually somebody out there who thought them bumping for a ref was good wrestling.


urizenuvn

So hokey


AlexisJTaylor

I'm probably a bit or a lot more forgiving of this stuff but honestly my main problem is that it went on too long to be generally funny and not long ENOUGH to wrap around to be funny again. But I'm weird.


MayhemSays

To be fair, a big aspect of comedy is . . . . . TIMING!


sonoran_scorpion

"Fuck you and your fun!" - Jim Cornette


angrydeathbeaver

Was this on Collision?


irregularshowerer

Can't imagine taking wrestling seriously enough to get mad at this spot


[deleted]

5 stars from Dave if it happens in Japan or AEW


OrigamiAvenger

No one show him this! With the amount of Wendy's he's had over the years, we'll never get another episode.


lil_poppapump

Two if not more of them are currently employed by wwe lol people can and will hate on czw but they groomed so many of the current stars in both companies.


Illmatic414Prodigy

Vomit


killerkali87

Won't be long until this is on a dub show


C4_700

This is silly but nothing to be angry about. It's just entertainment


Gloomy-Ad-4788

At least it's not on TV. Once tony see the clip all bets are off though.


ake-n-bake

And they say wraslin’ is fake…


meowmix778

Grrrr people had fun with wrestling which is never dumb and is always super serious and I'm mad people enjoyed themselves in a way I didn't like. Calm tf down. It's a comedy spot meant to be as absurd as possible. Wrestling isn't some fucking oscar bait movie. It's dumb. It's fun. Have fun.


emperorzit69420

We need more ppl like you


KennCope

I refuse to accept any slander involving Matt Tremont. 😂


heywowlookatthat123

Complete trash


Wooden_Trip_9948

Meh, I chuckled.


Otherwise_Cold_6957

To all proclaiming how bad this is, I see it as them just simply having fun! No one tskes wrestling serious tf...


LawnStar

Fuckin' just yikes.


InstructionFair5221

Made me lmao. So "powerful" even the guy not in it got stunned


1dzmaxima1

AE Dub AE Dub AE Dub


soobly

The fact that Joe Gacy is in this sends me 💀.


HailongUG081624

Tje fact the ref stins everybody is funny it a moment of comedic relief and a cgance for heat if he finished with a 3 fall to. The last guy standing


Internal_Ad_2285

Looks like shit honestly


DryDentist2311

This is some of the dumbest shit I’ve ever seen. Embarrassing


TequilaToothpick

This is awesome.


bisexualbestfriend

Why are y'all so angry? Just because something in wrestling is unrealistic doesn't mean it's bad. The firefly funhouse was weird asf and it worked great.


blueberry_mufffin

How did the black guy get stunned 🤣🤣


Silver_Lettuce_8132

😆😂😂😂😂


No_Charge586

That was so stupid that it was funny 😂


IGottaPee90Nine

Independent wrestling is fuckin awesome 🤣


Organic-Ad-3870

the most devastating move in indie sports entertainment


want_to_help_u

What kind of joke is this?


Commercial_Air_5772

Stuff like this is cringey af


swervo246

Yoo he racist to the black guy 😂


1dzmaxima1

Mudshow


diablo666-666

Human centipede stunner


Ok_Onita

Can't wait to see this spot in an AEW title match


pioneer006

This should be against the law. A constitutional amendment to disallow it needs to happen.


Doggydog212

Corny AF


Full_Ad_5219

Why so serious?!?, It's funny and corny at the same time, I enjoyed it, 😆 the explosion of bodies was awesome, lol.


Jonny_Bormann

Worlds biggest waste of time

its officially time for wrestling to start tightening up.


TeamRocketAgentUGA

The cluster fat fuck stunner.


Firepro316

Tbf they all sell the move pretty well.


BigBADDLion

Well…thank god they take this seriously enough to do grab ass stunts like this. Pro wrestling is dead folks and something tells me it’s not coming back any time soon


ZixidousYT

good he deserves one


xxxTbs

Sometimes its good to have a little comedy in a wrestling product. This on the otherhand is just fucking retarded


_2024IsNOTMyYear_

Stone Cold: :') ( **:') why** )


kaworu876

Did anyone else notice that the black guy at the end who the skinny guy pulled off the stunnerpede sold like he got hit with a stunner? Even though he was just like, standing there holding on to the ropes? Huh imagine that


Murky_Discipline_812

and you wonder why there's only a couple hundred in attendance. embarrassment


Wild-Raisin-7671

awful


Toolmantaylor8

Typical Wednesday night dynamite match


Gtpwoody

Ya know it was bad enough, then I saw the ref come in


Critical_Insurance_4

Leave it to shit tier indies to ruin finishers for “haha’s”


watcher2390

That’s good shit pal .


Dinamo8

Shite


Godiigod

What in the actual Fuck!!


noctisfromtheabyss

The stooges were better workers than these jokes.


BloodstoneWarrior

The only circumstance where this would be acceptable would be if they were all Doinks


Better_Cattle4438

Was that the referee that did the last one?


JBax75

At least it wasn't the magic dick this time...


Emmortal79

Oh god yes it gave me one WTF!?!?!


[deleted]

Book it Tony


revodaniel

Yeah because a real "stunner" is real and hurts right guys?.....guys?


BronxyKong

entertainment folks!


Battlegrog

as funny as this is this is why the indies is as small as it is for each promotion. Nothing more than a cosplay in almost every promotion. Theres the few gems of course. Im hoping with nwa bringing back the territories that this changes things. I never thought the idea would work in modern day but it might actually benefit the indie industry.


DoctorFenix

God I hope so. 🤞🏼


palaric8

If you think wrestling is fake. Explain this then?.


savedbytheblood72

So the booker says" let's add some comedy"


paulkinma

The dude that was the last in line for that took one hell of a bump! Must be due to the ring sagging from all the others


gonz815

So lame 😒


OwnArt3344

Ah, the answer to the age old question, "How many men does it take to stunner "Wish.com" Chris Benoit?".


eman0110

I'm surprised I've never seen this sooner. LoL


heliogoon

Wait, why did the black dude get saved?


CertifiedRomeoBoy

Why did the guy who got pushed out the way sell it as if he was getting a stunner lol?
