MJF acknowledges the elephant in the roomhttps://youtu.be/uqnS-xA7ON0?si=sfavUhpOrTUlEMD2
>>16758323I popped, 2:50 into vid
>>16758323I thought they were in bad shape but they are wcw 2000 levels of who gives a shit looking at the audience
>>16758323>references Owen Hart's death while wearing a blue blazer
>>16758355Its so clever I am convinced tony had nothing to do with it
>>16758323>wwe still in business>tna still in business>aaa still in businesswhat did shekelman mean by this
>>16758368>WCW>Global force>CWA>WWAHe was talking about the four other companies that died with Jarrett.
>>16758368>WWE>TNA>AAA He said your favorite wrestling company
>>16758363obvi-fucking-ously
>>16758323The delivery on that promo is so bad. He really makes it obvious he memorized everything
I never thought I'd say this five years ago but even Hangman has surpassed MJF in the promo department
>>16758407Hi Max!
>>1675832313 minutes promo... Has AEW become that boring?
MJF can’t do anything but cheap heat and worked shootsBoring
>>16758584nah because it was a battle of two of the GOAT promo guys (slapnuts won)
MJF is the last thing I see before I change the channel
>DONT INTERRUPT ME Why is MJF a tough guy now?Jeff should have started shooting and got in his face asking what would happen if he did.
MJF is the last thing you see before your interest rates go up.
>>16758637>Why is MJF a tough guy now?nah he's a sperg with repressed rage issues, it's in keeping with his gimmick though (jew)
>>16758323why is the jew orange?
>>16758697part of the gimmick
>>16758626This. The ratings declined massively while he was champ.
>>16758732no, they actually didn't
>This is what the AEW fan watches and enjoysIt's honestly more grim than I thought.
>>16758781>It's honestly more grim than I thought.but enough about your weight
>>16758792No need to go there friend. I have a thyroid issue.
>>16758804I didn't know they deep-fried thyroids
>>16758323Jesus Christ how did MJF convince anyone he was a good promo
>>16758836by being the best promo in the biz
>>16758846He's not even the best promo in the ring in that video
>>16758323>crowd makes a tiny tiny tiny bit of noise>SHUT UP I'M TALKINGHe really shouldn't do that it just highlights how fucking dead the crowd is
>>16758853He's a bigger draw now than Jarrett has ever been, and he didn't need his daddy to push him to do it.
NEVER
>>16758858>he really shouldn't improv and interact with the crowdthis is your brain on E-slop
>>16758860How does that work when WCW and TNA drew more
>>16758866What crowd?
>>16758866You shouldn't do it if the crowd's fucking dead because it just makes it incredibly obvious how little noise they're actually making you retard
>>16758836I liked the promo. That promo battle, which had Jarrett get some cheap.heat.exe shots back at muhjeff and the ricochet urkel presentation were the only two interesting things on the show. >>16758638Kek
>>16758867Jarrett was not a draw in WCW. I don't know shit about TNA lore but I know that the most devastating decision WCW even had with their title wad putting it on Jarrett. That was the death knell.
>>16758860MJF isn't even a bigger draw than Karen Jarrett>>16758882>I don't know shit about TNA lore but I know that the most devastating decision WCW even had with their title wad putting it on Jarrett>I don't know shit but I know [thing that's wrong]Kek, it shows
>>16758882still drew more
>>16758323I can't listen to more than a minute of MJF talk because he sounds like a nervous kid in drama club stressing every syllable
>>16758895>still drew moreYes the 55 year old has drawn more than the 28 year old
I enjoyed this
>>16758388AEW has nothing to worry about then.
>>16758886Oh please zoom zoom, tell me a worse booking decision than Jarrett with the strap
>>16758323>If I retired tomorrow they'd put me in the hall of fameLmao what hall of fame would that be?
>>16758953Tony is starting one next year. I'm not even shitposting. Or WON
>>16758323>says the quiet part out loudBrave seasoned midget
The problem is AEW will never die as long as Tony doesnt want it to. They could draw a 0 rating and 0 profit, as long as Tony wants to pump his endless funds into it, its going to continue to run. AEW is the first time in the businesses history that a wrestling promotion doesn't have to me profitable to succeed or continue because the owner is in the top 1% of the planet's wealth
>>16759138I don't agree>>16759174
>>16758368There are a bunch of slapnutz on the internet who irrationally hate Double J and and Max was trying to play to them and their narrative that Double J is bad at wrestling and a carny that'll bankrupt your company. It's stupid. He's a great measuring stick for exactly how intelligent a wrestling fan is. Ask their opinion of Jeff Jarrett.
>>16758323>According to Dave on WOR he said that the line backstage really made people angry. He didn’t mind the line and didn’t think it was a big deal because he doesn’t think the company is dying but it doesn’t help the perception of current day aew . He feels like the line wasn’t out of character for MJF but he heard from many people backstage that it hit too close to home.It honestly sounds like a circus backstage at aew
>>16758867>tna drew moreHow are they doing now? Tna is essentially going the way of evolve
>>16759233How could it not be. I've been watching some of those old ppvs and dynamites from 2019 and looking at those crowds compared to the crowds from 2025. It's fucking the same whiplash you'd get from.watching a 97 Nitro then a 2000 Nitro. The fans are gone and the ones left are there seemingly ironically. MJF, Kenny were there at the beginning. They thought they were on their way to being household names in a new wrestling boom and now there doing nuTNA shows. Morale must be fucking grim.
>>16758952And then silence lol>>16758886
>>16759233I used to joke about Dave being a propagandist over the years but holy shit, every statement he makes always has to have that unnecessary "everything is actually good" spin. Even if I was a fan of AEW at this point, Dave would seem counterproductive and irritating
>>16758836Same way as Punk, he cut a promo once winking at the camera and shitting on his boss.
>>16759249And AEW is going the way of TNA.
>>16759368>MJF, Kenny were there at the beginning. They thought they were on their way to being household names in a new wrestling boom and now there doing nuTNA showsIt must be especially disappointing for them because they, at least to some extent, seemed to genuinely care about the company while others seem content to keep playing the music while the Titanic sinks as long as they get their bag.
>>16759490The sprinkler match must have killed it for Kenny. He was good before that but everything after was shit including his dogshit title reign and the dogshit video game he released and didn't promote once
>>16758323i mean folks wheres the lie
>>16758368Still existing doesn't mean they're not dead, you brainlet.
>>16758697Orange Man is synonymous with Judaism.
>>16759477It's been over a year, let it go.
