Why does this look better than modern AEW flippy shit?
>>
>>19997581
And just like AEW flippy shit. The crowd goes mild. Just the smarks celebrate
>>
>>19997581
It doesn’t. Why the fuck does the unmasked guy get up on the rope backwards apart from to clearly set up the next move they have choreographed together

To do his top rope gutbuster, that's the setup to it

More struggle, less/no deadtime standing around waiting for the other person to be in position

This isn't realistic to you?
>>
>>19997581
Because they're actually fighting each other and not blatantly cooperating.
>>
>>19997581
Because they're actually selling and not focusing on hitting superhero poses at the end of each sequence.
>>
>>19997581
Because it's executed well by talented wrestlers who know what they're doing, unlike AEW flippy shit.

>Why the fuck does the unmasked guy get up on the rope backwards
Because he was setting up Rey for a brutal move but Rey fought out of it. Retard.
>>
>>19998028
>Shitspreay standing there like a complete retard, pausing, the gears in his head visibly turning as he thinks "I'M GONNA DO A MOOOOOVE", and inexplicably jumping backwards into Swerve's arms for no apparent reason
Jesus fucking christ

>gets on ropes to set up a move
>rey begins counters the move
>rey jumps up to do his own move
>dean counters and does a new move in the new position
It's contrived but there's no excessively visible cooperation and everything logically flows into the next part
>>
>>19997581
Dean Malenko might've been a vanilla midget with no charisma, but he had very high ring IQ to make spots actually make logical sense. You know it's grim when the vanilla midgets understand psychology more than modern main event guys in AEW
>>
>>19997581
Because it was better and people actually watched WCW
>>
>>19999581
When you watch kino like this it really drives home the fact that modern wrestlers are actually just fans cosplaying as guys from 30 years ago and doing it badly.
>>
>>19997581
These uncs are embarassing. Watch this, grandpa

>>19999669
>hey bruv I've got a great idea for a sequence, we flip, we don't even hit each other, I mean we just flip and then at the end we do a synchronized super-flip and stare at each other for 30 seconds just to make sure people really understand that this is a fake fight and actually we like each other
>>
>>19999649
What really got to me was the opening chain wrestling, they are really wrenching on those holds like it's an actual struggle, instead of holding their hands loosely and rolling around like retards like they do in AEW when they do that opening sequence
>>
>>19999701
How does a wrestler trip another wrestler running off the ropes ...hmmmmmm thinking.....you useless fucktard
>>
>>19999791
>i'll trip him by rolling backwards with my asshole presented
>>
>>19999820
That's a tactic you learn on the prison yard

>They're actually athletic and not a bunch of flabby muffin top having goofs
>they actually trained for their match instead of spending all their downtime playing video games
>They're actually pacing themselves instead of just doing the move, the sell of a struggle really feels neglected by a lot of these indie shitters
>guys nowadays know people are gonna glaze their crap no matter how boring or sloppy their matches are. There is no incentive to improve when an audience will just accept whatever crap you put in front of them
