They know their products are trash and the "sport" is dying. But since they lost all creativity and/or control, all they can do is lash out at legitimate criticism. "JUST ENJOY THINGS" is the rallying cry of the goyslop consuming Redditor, and why almost every franchise has gone to dogshit.
>>
>>19704027
Punk didn't say that at all. He told people to stop getting mad that their headcanon booking isn't real
>>
The food equivalent to what Triple Nose is talking about is closer to complaining about a full course because "this drink doesn't go well with that kind of meat" even though using that drink for the course was something done for decades.

I get what Punk was trying to say but it didn't apply when he said it. He also likened it to shows or films and people critique those too but not because they wrote it all in their head but because its bad, unfaithful to the source material etc.
>>
>>19704133
You're exactly who he was calling out. Stop getting mad at your headcanon

>“This will sound offensive to every critic out there. I wish I could tell people f–k off for being a critic. Be a fan. Go watch this and be a fan. If I tell you to go to the movies and watch this movie, and I saw it and thought it was really good, then just go to the movie as a fan. You watch the movie, and you have one opinion. If I tell you, ‘Hey, go see this movie, but can you give me a one-page detail, like things you liked, what you didn’t like, and if it worked for you or didn’t work for you,’ you watch it totally differently, right? You watch the product totally different. It ruins it for people; the world was so much better when nobody knew.”

This is some cult shit breh

I hate these people so much. Why did their failing wrestling show break their minds to the point where their existence revolves around hating WWE and trying to make others hate it too?
>>
>>19704260
he's absolutely directing it at the fans. HHH has hated smark fans for literal decades and has never been able to hide his distaste for them.
>>
>>19704244
Mad?
You're keeping tabs on the WWE despite allegedly hating it

>>19704260
They think if the WWE has a down period again they'll recover the half of their audience that fucked off forever. We like to meme about the pendulum swinging here but aewtrannies genuinely believe it.
>>
>>19704012
Triple H is right. It would be better if Dave didn't exist.

>>19704250
so you can't criticize the shit you pay for? that's some commie shit
>>
>>19704267
Obnoxious smarks with inconsistent opinions deserve to be hated though. They literally just complain for attention. There is nothing you can do to actually satisfy them. Thats what i said earlier about him trying to get more black talent on the show. People were making fun of WWE fod pushing too many blacks like 4 years ago. Then they dont push enough. Now smackdown is being called blackdown. You just can't fucking win.
>>
>>19704283
I got ripped apart for simply saying Jungle boy isnt that over right now in the collision thread. They basically are saying exactly that.

you can debate whether its justified or not, just saying it was definitely pointed at the fans, not meltzer. it would be even more pathetic if HHH was seething about fucking dave than the fans.
>>
>>19704283
If it's so shit why are you paying for it in the first place?
That's what the entire discussion boils down to, you could walk away but you don't because you made wrassling a core part of your personality

>>19704286
They also tend to self-aggrandize a lot, Alvarez genuinely believes CM Punk personally called him out over the Cena-Gunther finish because they shared a lockerroom 20 years ago and he saw him dating Maria Kanellins. Or Hogwheels genuinely thinks he's an internet personality when he's just a fat fuck who knows how to ban evade.

If that's what you wanna believe, that's on you. I'm sick of hypocritical crybabies who just obviously want "the fed" to fail for their own bitter and spitefilled reasons. You can tell the difference between honest criticism and that. You rarely find the honest kind here.
>>

>>19704323
Oh that's the other thing, they never bring the same energy to AEW.
They're all gung ho about shitting on WWE but they never point out the glaring problems in AEW because they'll hurt Tony Khan's feelings or something
>>
>>19704012
He’s obviously right. Especially when smarks talk about shit like stars and workrate and other nebulous things that they can’t even objectively define and extrapolate upon.

Have you ever seen a WWE talent(a real one, not a jobber) brag about his cagematch score or how many 5-star matches he has?
No, it's only the AEW camp that does it
>>
>>19704339
fans talk shit all the time, they can just tell you're an obvious drone
maybe try to hide it better next time
>>
I get it from a booker's perspective. People write off storylines before they play out and some people even get upset over rumors of storylines that don't actually exist. Then you have people who don't even actually watch the show rip it to shreds. You shouldn't completely ignore what the IWC says because sometimes the fans are right but you do have filter them. It's the truth when they say that booking is probably the most thankless job there is in wrestling.
>>

They're not allowed to

>>19704356
Cena, Jericho and Bret come to mind.

Rare Dave W, I guess that restaurant critic analogue really got through to him finally.
But yeah, as WWE watcher, Dave hater and AEW expat, I find Triple H's take to be stupid no matter if it's just aimed at specific type complaining never happy smark online or fans in general it's contradictory to how fans are formed. What he's talking about is being a consumer and brand loyal regardless of it there's anything to be a FAN of, i.e. cheering something on because you believe in it or think it's good, as a show.

Being a WWE fan isn't like being a sports team fan - fans stick to teams out of hometown pride shit and what not. Nobody says they are a NFL or a XFL fan. They are fans of a team in it if they are, not the organization.
We are fans of the wrestling show and root for the characters as stables, teams and solo athletes. This shouldn't be a hard concept to grasp.
I think I'm starting to see why that XFL business venture was such a money pit loss for everyone involved.

They think literally everyone who says anything is out to get them(and to be fair I am) and it just makes them look unhinged and makes the product they love so much look like shit by association. That's how they ran out that actress with the huge tits, imagine how many people AEWtrannies are responsible for turning away from AEW
>>
>>19704416
no they can just tell who's a drone or not easily. generally from them acting stupid.
and you're still seething about that actress because of a collage of like 10 people when she had 100s reply to her. that's fucking stupid.

>>19704484
Smackdown dipped below a million one time and you retards have been talking about it nonstop for weeks. Meanwhile, the reality is Dynamite hasn't hit a million viewers in years, and Collision is lucky to get 300k viewers.

>and we dont even know dynamite's ratings. most people i know watch on max
The new Nielsen ratings system includes streaming numbers. There is no fictional extra 500k viewers on Max that aren't counted in the Nielsen ratings. Estimates are maybe 10-20k people were watching on streaming at most.
>>
I almost get what Triple H is saying though because everyone who watches wrestling now watches from a standpoint of did I like this booking how would I have booked this? Almost no fan base is actually watching from a standpoint of I want so-and-so to win I’m a fan of this guy so I want him to win because of this conflict between him and this other guy. But that’s the wrestlings fault for not making anyone give a shit in that way

You know I was invited to colleges to discuss how to make money selling my opinions as objective facts. That's how objective my opinion is. You don't agree with my objective facts? You need to study microwave meals more, but you will never eat more than I have, so your opinion will remain subjective. Now let me tell you why these microwave meals, made by a company run by an autistic friend of mine who is tailoring them to my objective taste buds, is the best in the world ever."

The food equivalent to what HHH is saying here is like going to a restaurant and complaining about the quality of the food and the chef comes storming out demanding that you shut up, pay your bill and come back next week to eat another shitty meal. Don't complain about, don't tell us what it is that you don't like about the food, just keep spending your money here and quietly suffering through your subpar food. There a hundred different restaurants in town, just like there's a hundred different other things you could be watching or doing for your entertainment other than watching WWE, but shut the fuck up and keep watching anyway.
