Many such cases. It's Starship Troopers all over again.

Cena smiling cause he knows he doesn’t have to work with Triple H anymore
>>
>>19481784
It was great and really artful, John gave up because ironically enough, Gunther never gave up, he was relentless and made Cena tap. Beautiful storytelling
>>
>>19481784
I like John Cena :)

>The guy who promotes never giving up giving up is good because he smiled
What the fuck?
>>
brehs it's not some arthouse moment why are people acting like they have a higher plane of existence for understanding a basic finish. shit even your shitty animes have these moments every other week.

they still don't like it
>>
>>19481817
I hate these people so much
>>
>>19481872
That smile clearly means something though so there is at least some depth to the story they were attempting to tell
>>
>>19481784
Cena looked so relieved of being done with this shit.

Like a relieved father that puts his neet son on the streets after 20+ years of dealing with a non functional, disrespectful retard, that never lived up to the expectations of being a man.

Actually based ending for a dude that was vilified for 2 decades and that we all had to pretend we always liked for the past 2-3 years because he's a funny actor OUTSIDE pro wrestling.

Dude cashed out from a dying industry at the perfect time.

Cena wearing the long shorts as a visual plea. Cena smiling in visual atonement. The man whose mantra is “never give up” taping in a visual representation that “the time is now”, realizing that he is but a poor player that drop kicks and AAs his time up on the stage and will now be heard no more. WWE is better than the thing you love.
>>
>>19482111
granted but people acting smug for understanding basic writing that's literally on camera in your face feels ridiculous
just because you got what was going for doesn't mean it's actually good. It's like people don't realise that and think any attempt at depth is automatically good.

If that finish ran in the attitude era it would be laughed out. You don't smile during a sub. In kayfabe it just makes it look like the sub isn't even hurting you if you have the energy to smile during it. It's why it felt like a damp squid of an ending. the sleeper never actually looked threatening at any point during the 10 minutes he had it on. Something like a sharpshooter is easier to sell, but in wrestling sleepers are literally rest holds, so there's no real way to make it look convincing.

The purple face made it convincing

But it takes watching the match to notice

This is so retarded even for Saturday morning cartoon adult theatre

Oh, fuck off. That's just the "you don't get art" argument reheated. You aren't superior for enjoying slop that turns everyone else off.

I haven't watched wrestling for years, but isn't it normal for wrestlers to lose their final match before they retire? Ric Flair losing to Shawn Michaels immediately comes to mind.
>>
>>19482832
If Cena won the board would be filled be "KWAB GUNTHER BURIED" "SUPER CENA" "EGOTISTICAL HOLLYPEDO"
There's no winning
>>
>>19482832
Usually yes but there have been exceptions (Trish Stratus for example).
>>
Burying Gunthers finish a little and kayfabe (lol) in general, also looks like John didn't give his all to try and win (making it look like he didnt take Gunther seriously and also looking like he threw the match).

Is ''media literacy'' the new ''dog whistle''?

Vader and Kenobi were fighting over Luke's soul, Gunther and Cena were fighting because ????

There's no story here

You're too high on video essays.

We've reached a point where smarks and other wrestlers are too fucking stupid for wrestling

If you keep seeing "media literacy" around media then maybe you just have no media literacy. I barely ever see the phrase.
