Can anyone showcase a single instance of this shitter being anything more than a terrible, zero psychology spotmonkey like Ospreay (but slower)? I thought he was supposed to be one of the great technical wrestlers
the most diabetic of smarks these days go "um acktually he's not a technician" because he's not a rest hold merchant like ZSJ or danielson
>>20556284Those two suck too. Now what?
He broke his neck 6 times and kept going because he’s superhuman
>>20556275Can you give us one reason why your fat retarded ass deserves to live let alone comment on wrestling? Being a contrarian isn't a personality, you stinky dimwit.
>>20556299Why does Kurt Angle being a spotmonkey make you so mad? Instead of resorting to insults, post a match that proves me wrong
>>20556275>>20556284>>20556287Regal is the master of wrestling.
>>20556307Because you're a fat bitch who thinks saying the opposite of what's widely considered true makes you special. Get a personality and a job, lardo.
>>20556324If it's widely considered true surely you can provide an example?
>>20556327How about you google Kurt Angle's best matches, slapnuts? Too lazy to walk and too lazy to type/do your own research? We're not here to hold your hand no matter how perpetually lonely you are
>>20556335In which of these matches is he a technical wrestler rather than a spotmonkey?
>>20556341Vs Nigel McGuinness
>>20556275>As long as I’m around, you’re gonna have to try, Brock.He is eternally based for this alone.
wrestling technician that could talk and cut a promo and be funny. he had it all
study tna match and get back to me
>>20556275Better than the laughable talent like the Goonjobber.
>>20556275Being a contrarian is not a valid personality trait.
Still no examples, huh
I can, but I won't.
>>20556275>the great technical wrestlerssuch as? list them.
Check out this technical, psychology driven wrestling : retard jumps off something high and hits the ground
>>20556598Retard can’t read>>20556346
Do you guys actually like wrestling?
>>20556654i do. but only this kind
>>20556654Yes, actual wrestling, not spotmonkey Angle/Omega/Ospreay garbage
>>20556604Billy Robinson, Volk Han, Tamura, Bockwinkel, Fujiwara
>>20556669name your favorites
>>20556678Unfair to list RINGS wrestlers
>>20556275If he was a spotmonkey, he'd have more 5 star matches
>>20556722who's to say how many he has or doesn't have
>>20556730He doesn't have any from the guy who constantly gives spotmonkey matches 5 stars and above
>>20556741well that's not very nice of him is it
>>20556717Why?
>>20556747Kurt's not a spotmonkey, he actually is a great seller and is known for his technical mat wrestling. You have no clue what you are talking about
Generalizing, 99% of wrestling matches from the 2000s onward is just spot and moves spamming with no psychology.
>>20556752Too based
"technical wrestling" is boring as fuck>b-b-but it's le realistic!no, it's notwatch mma and come back
>>20556796The greatest technical wrestlers would kill modern MMA fags
How old were you when you realized that there's no such thing as a "technical wrestler" and it's just a gimmick people use to get over. The term "technical" no more accurately describes how someone wrestles than "evil Russian" or "flamboyant androgynous heel".
>>20556796who are you calling boring?
>>20556818when I read Lou Thesz's book and he said "my gimmick is wrestling" and i understood right away what he meant
>>20556818technical wrestling is wrestling that especially focuses on grappling, mat work, holds and submissionsthere’s no “evil russian” working style
>>20556275Those Angle vs Benoit matches were some of the best matches I've seen
>>20556840I'm surprised you took the time to answer that idiot.
>>20556829>my gimmick is wrestlingholy based
>>20556820Cryan "Ratings Killer" Fagnielson is most certainly boring. Legit WOAT tier wrestler.
>>20556818I realized this back when I was watching Chris Benoit after watching Bret Hart
>>20556275"Kurt overrated" is an overdone debate and I don't care one way or the other, but it's funny that you can make everyone seethe by (negatively) comparing Omega, Ospreay, Takeshita etc to TNA era Angle, or by saying Angle's best match was with Shane McMahon, which shouldn't be controversial opinions if you actually go back and watch the shit in question
>>20556275>This is what GWE list fags seriously believe
>Spam one of his reclycled catchphrases 200 times>Infantile unfunny jokes calling his opponents jabronis and/or losers, clearly wrote by Vince>Opponents scripted to not reply to his kindergarten-tier jokes and instead stand still and shocked like idiotsExplain me why Rock is considered the best mic worker ever? Punk just to name one made leagues better and more complex promos
>>20556702Hid the thread when he saw this
>>20556983Ultimate warrior is the best mic worker ever
>>20556983Austin is the undisputed GOAT on the mic though.
>>20557017WHAT
You're right OP, Angle sucked and is overrated as fuck by many people who in their entire lives have only watched late 90s WWF.Here's a thread I made last year that resembles yours quite a bit.https://archive.palanq.win/pw/thread/17575742/#17575742
>>20557021OH HELL YEAAAAAHHHH
>>20557031You and OP should give each other AIDS so we never have to hear you lame bullshit ever again
>>20556299Just saw this faggoty ass thread from the homepage, as a grown-ass man who watches wrestling how the absolute fuck can you call anybody "retarded", you total autist.
>>20557031A fine thread indeed. I remember it well. Yours truly graced it with my usual keen insights.
>>20556629this post is an exact duplicate of one from this old thread: >>20557031
>>20557051Nice samefagging you're doing. And no, I don't want proof. Give your boyfriend his phone back and get a life, geek.
>>20557031>https://archive.palanq.win/pw/thread/17575742/#17575742this was over a year ago??? we really are just going around in circles aren't we?
>>20557031This thread should be stickied and locked
>>20557055Hell yeah, brother!
>>20557001>meanwhile, literally the post above..
>>20556678Based and Volkpilled
>>20557130So fucking good. I don't care if he only had 80 career matches total, Volk Han is the GOAT for me.
>>20556983this but unironically
Have Ikeda and Ishikawa shown up yet? where my Battlarts and Futen niggas at
>>20557085It was, unfortunately. Pretty hard to believe..
bumpola
>>20558510bit too blatant, no?
>>20557148>FutenWhy you wanna watch chicks with dicks?
>>20556275because like Lesnar, he's a legit badass fighter who could kill any indie shitter in a shoot, and he doesn't do gay flips and anime shit and his in ring work looks real
>>20556840>there’s no “evil russian” working styleYou've never met a Russian.
>>20556275Kurt Angle's ring psychology is entirely based on the fact that he's Kurt Angle, and that it's Kurt Angle doing all of the moves and mannerisms. This is why even when the moves and the match itself aren't believable you can still buy into it, because you still believe in the character. he could do literally anything. He could just stand in place and spin around. He could pull out a book and start reading it in the middle of a match. He could breakdance. But the match would still feel real because you would never once stop believing that it's Kurt Angle doing those things, and that those actions were within the scope of who he is. He's the ultimate in believable characters, even when he's breaking character since that's also a part of the character.
>>20558981AI sloip respopnse
>>20559035It wasn't AI I just had an idea and ran with it. Could have written it better to be quite desu.
>>20558931He did do flips, and his act was highly comedic, unrealistic and unserious in and out of the ring. He was far more entertaining than anyone in wrestling today but come the fuck on.He was over because he was naturally funny and willing to make himself the butt of the joke and not a single normal person watching gave a fuck about his Olympic credentials, they could be entirely kayfabed and his act would have been just as great. On the other hand no one gave a single shit about Gable Steveson etc.Insecure boomer wrestlers marked out for him because "what I did wasn't fake gay shit for retards, look, they got a real olympic rassler now" and the kind of fags who watch New Japan held him as one of the "good" WWE/TNA guys because muh sporps based inokiism but non autistic normal people under 300 lbs mostly remember the funny promos and wearing a hat etc.
>>20559070nta but I mostly agree. I think people did care about the medal though, but mostly because it added to the comedic value seeing an olympic gold medalist (whomst won with a broken freaking neck) acting like a buffoon on live tv.
>>20556983This is sadly one thing people often miss or don't talk enough when discussing whether rock is hack or not, truth is he relied a lot on what anon wrote. That being said, the whole rock's arc in the AA was dimes as hell but it should be credited more as a team work thing rather than him becoming undeniable in the mic such as steve, punk or even cena
>>20556275OP's literally never watched Kurt Angle wrestlehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hnuVRUiqlk
>>20559196He just discovered what a contrarian is and went all in on it
>>20559233"Angle, Michaels and Misawa are le overrated" is the new meta for this edition
>>20556275
awesome thread
People are mad but OP is right. Angle was an Olympic gold medallist who wrestled like an indy shitter. Especially when he got into the 'ankle lock reversal' stuff later on. He was a spot monkey.
>>20560614Yep. He's the exact type of flippy shitter this board (rightfully) cries about all the time
Angle sucked. and he was a horrible influence on modern wrestling. this is settled. what more can be said
>>20556299>Being a contrarian isn't a personalityIt quite literally is a personality trait that can contribute largely to a person's overall character and outlook on life, just like being an agreeable faggot or an indecisive consensus seeker.
>>20556840>there’s no “evil russian” working styleThere absolutely is.>Bear hug, camel clutch, backbreaker, eye rake, clothesline, clothesline to back, back rake, rope burn, illegal choke usually near ropes, shoulder breaker, side backbreaker, backbreaker stretch, polish hammer, axe handle to back, club to back.It's like how there's a Black Guy style.>Jumping reverse STO, scoop powerslam, leapfrog, hip toss, dropkick, scoop slam, clothesline, corner clothesline, corner body splash, shoulder tackle, diving clothesline, flapjack.Samoan style:>Headbutt, Samoan drop, backbreaker, shoulder powerslam, throat thrust, savate thrust kick, bite, hip attack, corner body smash, corner hip attack, leg drop, diving headbutt, splash, diving splash.Texan>Piledriver, rope burn, rope hotshot, lifting rope hotshot, clothesline, suplex, superplex, calf branding, punch, side backbreaker, knee drops, ringside walk and brawl, fist drop, diving fist drop, diving knee dropsMemphis is basically Texas without the rope moves or kneedrops and added powder/fireball and neck breaker.You wrestle like one of these, you're a Black Guy, Evil Russian or Samoan, even if you're a white guy, you're a Texas or Memphis style even if you're from Canada.They should also crib UFC Style "this man is a boxer and jiu jitsu fighter" "this man is a karate fighter" shtick too. Define a bunch of styles and stick them on the tale of the tape.
>>20556629Oh wow. He's a flippy shitter
>>20556275Bump
>>20561068It seems like nothing is gonna work out for you then. You're still an insufferable faggot who needs to give his reheated thread a rest because it's not going over.
>>20561659ya gonna cry?
>>20561665You've been crying, replying and fuming all night about no one agreeing with you on this so... You tell me
Kurt Angle is the only good wrestler that has debuted after Arn Anderson retired in 1997.
>>20556314Regal is the master of putting viewers to sleep. Such an overrated shitter. He's just Lance Storm with a shittier accent.
>>20561855He do be like that
>>20556275this guy sucks
>>20561855Funniest meme these retarded marks are trying to push currently. Did he ever have even a 4-star match?
