The Continental Classic is really quite simple.
>>19548207Jesus fucking christ, the continental classic is a pile of shit. This thread's empty because not even the singular AEW fan can bring himself to defend this absolute clusterfuck.
>>19548334>OPig seething everyone ignored his threadkek remember when e-drones admitted they're too stupid to read a roundrobin?
>>19548207It's sad they call it the C2 because Tony NEEDED a G1 and he couldn't buy the name so he settled for whatever letter/number combo he could pay someone to think up.
>>19548207Kek even the parts of AEW that might actually be simple will have AEWtists writing up head canon this ridiculous
>>19548207Doesn't another belt also have a tournament as well?
>>19548207Well yeah, despite these mysterious ANYBODY CAN WIN standings, we knew before the fucking tournament started that the finals were gonna be Okada and Takeshita
>>19548355Remember when you defended the continental classic and then it crashed AEW's ratings which it continues to do every single time to this day?
>>19548397>Okada and TakeshitaWhy not just have a story that builds to a match instead? ]
>>19548390there was that roh women's tv title tournament (for an interim championship)then there was that women's tag title tournamentAnd I think Ricocchet is doing something too
>>19548207It is have you never followed a real sport before you fucking nerd?
>>19548207Do even diehard AEW marks give a shit about this random tournament full of random heatless matches? Meltzer doesn't even seem to care and he's on AEW's payroll.
>>19548411cope fatso, cope
>>19548408This is a tournament in a fake sport between ex-WWE midcarders and literally whos for a belt that means nothing. Nobody cares who wins or loses. This level of complexity is stupid and unjustified for something so inane. >>19548411Even a lot of AEWtists don't like the Continental Clusterfuck which is why it's a notorious ratings-killer.
>>19548402Kek you cooked em
>>19548402Did it crash RAW & Smackdown's too? Not your boogeyman btw
>>19548469lol "complexity". Found the guy who couldn't read a roundrobin.>I don't know wrestlers if they weren't in WWEkek proved it
>>19548402that part
>>19548207Good lord. Does tony know this shit is fake?
>>19548207E-tards seething because they can't understand basic arithmetic. I thought you Indians were supposed to be good at math?
>>19548405Because we need some sick banger 6* matches along the way bro
>>19548207Imagine seeing the utter worthlessness that Japanese professional wrestling steeply declined into after 1996, the last year there was actually a hot money-drawing storyline in that country, and think "we should copy this boring as fuck format for an audience that has zero interest in neither the style nor seeing gooks on their television screen"
This kind of theorycrafting is part of the appeal of these things. People complaining are really outing themselves as having no experience watching sports.
>>19548727so aew is for the severely autistic
>>19548207Heaven forbid wins and losses matter. Nope it's better Drew McIntyre gets 4 title shots in a row for some reason. Tourneys should be boring with no good matches or ongoing stories like the Cena tournament. An actual thought out tournament with intrigue for each matchup and wrestler? Too complicated for me to follow.
>>19548397Okada vs Takeshita is the semi finals
>>19548719kek Americans having an inferiority complex over Japan, 35 years and counting
>>19548334>Piggie can only follow a single elimination tournament Are WWE fans that retarded?
>>19548207Imagine being too shoot retarded to understand a round robin tournament.
>>19548904I'm afraid that seems to be the case.
>>1954882134 years ago was when the Japanese economic bubble collapsed and Japan became a meme. Their biggest influence on the West since then has been in the form of ugly cars, postmodern manchild cartoons that are thematically about how depressing it is to live in modern Japan, and pornography where the women act like they're getting raped.Also, I'm not American, bud. And at least I recognize my own country is a cultural wasteland, something Japanophiles are unable to do.
>>19548755>An actual thought out tournament with intrigue for each matchup and wrestler?That sounds dimes. I wish Tony would book something like that instead of the Continental Classic.
>>19548904>>19548918>being such a dimeless shitter you have to reply to yourself just to get (You)sExtraordinarily grim
>>19548912You need to retarded wasting your time reading that shit for a wrestling show. Brevity is the soul of wit, AEWitless.
Fuck your single elimination and fuck your round robins. Swiss is where it's at.
The tournament format is fine, it works in New Japan cause not all the matches are televised and tell individual stories about the wrestlers instead of the math behind winning.My only real issue is that the gimmick behind the tournament is that interference is not allowed, which is so dumb when you say it out loud I'm surprised even Tony moved forward with it.
>>19548933You don't even need to read the OP to understand how a points system works.
