Why is the new generation so injury-prone? It's not even a wear-and-tear issue because they don't do house shows anymore
>>
>>19864000
they do shit they can't do and don't work through the injuries like old niggas
>>
>>19864000
jevon was fine, dom has also been fine but he doesn’t wanna show up to work
some specifically blame it on the lack of house shows, they’re not getting reps so they’re unseasoned in the ring

Bron's just an anxious idiot. Not sure what's up with the other two.

Every wrestler now does retarded bullshit spots every match, and they don't chug pills to hide the pain from it

not doing house shows anymore is also part of the problem, house shows help keep them loose and in form. I feel like this is somewhat related but back when Kurt came back to the WWE after doing indy stuff for awhile he said he was feeling great and wanted to keep wrestling, but they put him in a managerial role for awhile and during that time his body started to fall out of the rhythm so when it was actually time for his retirement run he couldn't go like how he would've been able to do just a few years earlier.
there's definitely a balance that can be struck between little to no house shows and 300 shows a year

>they don't do house shows anymore
since when? I thought they did them on Tuesdays and Sundays
>>
>>19864031
I have no idea why they don't do one house show per week for each brand. You could have Raw run one on Wednesday, and Smackdown on Sunday. Gives everyone 4 days off still, but still keeps them in ring shape year round. I know they lost money on them because of travel costs, but just run the next state over from where you did a show. Raw-travel-house show-4 days off

NXT does consistent houseshows as part of the training, but main roster people only really do them around the holidays or when they're touring overseas.

Bron is a WWE trained guy. Jevon was an indie shitter first. Dom was likely trained by Rey and WWE. Dom was out for a short while, Jevon was fine and Bron was just a freak occurrence. The Rock got a hernia wrestling Cena at WM29 and it was just taking a move, not flipping the announcer's desk which makes more sense.

nick bockwinkle was wrestling at a high level multiple times a week every week until he was like 60 taking pinball bumps just because he didnt fuck around with any top rope bumps

Running houseshows lowers the ceiling on what you can charge for the weekly shows or prices houseshows out of being worth going to. The way I see it is if some people have the option between ~$400 just for tickets to take the family to RAW or ~$100 + travel to take the family to a houseshow somewhere within a reasonable distance they would take the houseshow. Now of course this doesn't apply to everyone, some people like the stuff that comes with TV tapings, the bigger feeling and such. But I think with complaints that do occasionally pop up about the shows being so expensive to go to this sentiment could grown amongst the fanbase if houseshows were ran more often.

Austin Theory is the only nigga who’s not injured due to him working out 1X Per Week.

Pro Wrestlers from the 70s were all athletes from college football or college Folkstyle wrestling.
