The people saying "did he forget his dad was fat" have to be the biggest retards on the planet. If you can't read between the lines he's saying that you should look like you can fight. That includes being a massive unit like his dad was. Bascially what he's saying is if you're a little guy, at least get some muscle definition.

Thats a lot of FATASSES

>this you all is champion?

what kind of english is this?
>>
>>16185205
You can be a little skinny guy in wrestling but you've got to wrestle like one. You can't look like Adam Cole and be wrestling like a heavyweight like he does. That's why people are able to get into Darby matches, because he works his matches around the fact that he's the little underdog.
>>
But Cody is right. If you're a Dusty or Otis you can get away with being fat because it's your thing but if you're an Atom Cole for example you can't look like a skinnyfat DYEL when you compete with the heavyweights.

>Dusty was a charismatic everyman and a working class hero. He can get away with not having the best body, because how he looks suits who he is and how he wrestles.

>Mick Foley is the perfect example of this. He didn't have an athlete's body, so he compensated by going the extra mile and sacrificing his body.

>Darby Allin is a modern example of this. He's excellent at wrestling how he looks. He literally throws himself at his opponents, he sells for most of the match, and he wrestles as an underdog. It's not necessarily an anti-AEW thing.

You don't have to have a perfect body, though it helps. But if you don't, don't wrestle like you're a peak athlete or a powerhouse when you're 150lbs soaking wet or you look like a random guy from down the street. We all know it's fake, you don't have to make it so ridiculously obvious or hammer people over the head with it when you look like you've never been in the gym or even a real fight in your life but you're kicking out of huge moves or doing things no one your size or level of physical prowess would ever do in real life.

Look at WWE’s roster. How many fat dudes do they? Otis, the Viking and Bronson? Everyone else is either jacked, cut or already a draw. Zero excuse not to be in shape when it’s literally a part of your job.
>>
>>16185659
The important part is that everyone in WWE is athletic. Their fat dudes are still excellent athletes, like a top tier offensive lineman in the NFL. Most fat dudes on the indie scene are not. That's why WWE will always be taken seriously. They only want people who are legitimately athletic. Wrestling is easy enough to do in bad shape. To maintain a level of credibility wrestlers should be as athletic as anyone in a competitive sport. If being an NCAA caliber athlete was the prerequisite to get in the business, on any level, the perception of pro wrestling would change overnight. That's why WWEID will be a good thing. It's going to raise the standards of the entire industry.

>>16185556
Hate Dave but at least he appears normal to this whackjob bullshit. These people want to be called athletes and they can't even maintain their bodies like real ones have to. It's so funny that calling people "fatties" in real sports circles is completely acceptable and nobody bats an eye. These people are geeks. They want the industry to be serious without any of the effort.

Cody told the truth that wrestling is a body business and "anybody who pays money to see me can body shame me all they want". So of course all the fatties and faggots think he said body shaming is good and will make fun of them.

>>
>>16187637
Dusty's unusual size was a big part of his common man appeal.
"My belly is a little big, my hiney's a little big, but I'm mean baby and you know it."
A phrase like that has less effect if nobody's calling him fat and out of shape, so heels did that all the time.
Wrestling is all about the looks but what people, especially the marks forget, is that differences tell stories.
If a skinny wrestler works like a powerlifter, you're not telling the story of how the skinny guy needs to repeatedly hit the beefcake to bring him down instead of just once.
Believability produces emotional investment, which draws money in the long run.
That's why Cody doesn't mind bodyshaming. You need fat fucks who can go but work a fat gimmick, so Cody looks more athletic. It elevates him.
And at some point you're gonna get a Vader who's strongfat and can work monster heel. That's great too. Differences tell stories.

IMO it's where the WWE went wrong, and AEW goes wrong as well.
Both promotions create programmes where anybody can be anything they aren't.

Are people really defending Adam Cole looking like he looks and then wrestling like he does? He's the personification of the problem with modern wrestling - everyone is a cruiserweight, yet everyone is a badass.

>>16185962
well if you are in the business of taking bumps you absolutely have to be athletic. but if you are not that athletic maybe you could get away with not doing anything too physical, like being a GM or announcer.
>>
>>16188520
Chugs isn't even entertaining on the mic the only thing over about him is his entrance music.
>>
>>16188538
Nah he's legitimately a great promo, the problem is that he looks like a cancer kid. 4 inches of height and some push ups are all that stand between Cole and GOAT status.
>>
>>16188430
It's Munchausen by proxy.
They're living their own wrestling dream through the tulpa that is Adam Cole.
By speaking negatively about Cole, they assert that you're speaking negatively about them personally.
It's mental illness and unfortunately highly profitable.

The guy Cole faced is actually what a cruiserweight should look like. Cole is a WWF era diva.

Remember, these are the people who genuinely say that they think wrestling is an "artform". You can't say that presentation and body doesn't matter if you think it's an artform.
Cody has ALWAYS been big on his own presentation to the point where he almost ruined his career in AEW due to it. Everyone complaining about Mick Foley seems to miss his entire career of taking bumps, doing hardcore matches and his sluggish style.

Wrestling fans are so retarded when they think they actually know what is good for the business. You are not a wrestler. Cody is a major champion in the biggest wrestling promotion in the world. He's been tied closely to developmental talent as well as in-ring work since childhood. He's worked across the entire US industry and done international shows.
These people aren't even indie shitters. They're just shitters.
