Biggest cautionary tale of the Fed?
>>
>>20816820
the speed with which they ruined giulias entire career is astonishing
>>
>>20816820
What's the alternative? Getting benched in AEW? Literally all the other outcomes are worse than working in WWE.

>>20816820
I seriously want to know why people think Giulia would in any different spot in any western promotion. Tony Khan hasn't booked his joshi well in years and nobody else pays worth a shit to leave Japan for.
>>
>>20816853
she would be far better working for literally any other fed, america or elsewhere, than WWE. it would be clear to you why this is the case if you ever watched anything other than WWE, and no AAA starting when WWE took it over doesn't count.
>>
>>20816847
In AEW she would have a decent spot and also be able to work whatever other promotions she wants. Tony reportedly didn't have any interest in her however.
>>
>>20816842
tell that to Rita Chatterton, Ashley Massaro or Owen Hart
>>
>>20816820
>Earning more money now than her entire career
>Traveling the world every month
>Winning multiple titles
>A champion for nearly 1 year during her first 1.5 years in WWE
Sounds terrible, I'm sure she's gutted
>>
>>20816847
tony books emi sakura better than the fed books giulia
>>
>>20816891
>>Earning more money now than her entire career
Is this true after the 50% paycut she just took thanks to TKO?
>>
>>20816976
That was only for boomers earning over a milly
>>
>>20817001
nope, all the japanese got one, kairi and asuka were the only ones with the spine to say fuck no
>>
>>20816888
I would but they're dead
>>
>>20817006
Not true, and Asuka is still with WWE, she did a youtube video recently and said she still signed for multiple years
>>
>>20816820
Arent they all millionaires, i thought you faggots cared about how much money people are making instead of whatever bullshit they shit out on tv
>>
>>20816847
This part. Look at Mina. And that's even with her having her ties to Mariah May to play off of getting her a foot in the door with an easy story to start out with. Even then she's always just been used to put other people over. Tony doesn't actually care about the joshi. He just uses them to put other people over. Look at SLK. Look at Momo. AZM. Rina. It's just about all of them. Meanwhile look at Iyo. Look at Asuka. Even Kairi got pushed well beyond her means. Giulia had a rough start on the main roster but even across that time she held a title. She's finding her footing now and is getting good reactions as a babyface
>>
>>20817021
>Not true
Yep, it is true, actually.
>>
>>20816820
Having Gunther on there is a fucking joke and a half
>>
>>20816820
I don't follow womeme shit so I have no idea who Giulia is.
GOONther is kinda boring but decent in the ring.
Bron Botchher would be my vote.
Dicky Taints is only there because of Cody. NXT or the midcard is exactly where he belongs.
>>
>>20816842
>benched in AEW

Which can't-miss talents is this happening to?
>>
>>20816831
Giulia was never good and the big leagues exposed this fact.
>>
>>20816847
>>20817031
Shida is literally a champion right now.
>>
>>20816820
Giulia and Bron for sure
>>
>>20817091
shida is the sole exception to the rule (unless you count riho? even then, you don't have to) but it's only because kenny feels bad for ruining her life so he begs tony to book her decently
>>
>>20816971
you faggots literally just say shit
>>
>>20817091
She was taken off TV for like two years before that
>>
>>20817091
Lower card belt in a third rate fed
AEW just doesn't do well with foreign talent in general, even all the Nooj guys that were poached ended up lost in the ether
Like if there are cautionary tales about wrestling right now, it's that WWE will take top talent from other places and actually push them
While AEW will give them a big paycheck to fuck around
>>
>>20817493
i think this is because she just didn't wanna work not because tony had nothing for her
>>
>>20817512
Please tell me what feds rank over AEW lol

>WWE will take top talent from other places and actually push them

???
>>
>>20816831
>ruined
Giulia got exposed at being a shitter
>>
>>20817043
What has he done since retiring Cena? Surely they used that momentum to turn him into a big star, right?
>>
>>20817512
what top talent has WWE taken and given a push lately? punk and cody were already WWE guys. other top level poachings i can think of were
blake/mariah - underwhelming NXT run, treading water on smackdown now
jordynne grace - top TNA knockout, again underwhelming NXT run, benched currently
giulia - rossy's ace, decent NXT run, weird creative didn't help her get over on main roster
vaquer - top luchadora in CMLL, lightning in a bottle NXT run followed by a massive fumble of a main roster run
joe hendry - first big name for TNA in a while, underwhelming NXT run to essentially no real push at all on the main roster
their biggest successful poached push lately has been danhausen who was nowhere near top talent. maybe jade, her reign wasn't good (because she isn't good) but they are/were pushing her big time, though i'm not sure if she was really be considered "top talent" in AEW like the others were. but most of the top talent they've taken have not really gotten especially big pushes.
>>
>>20817520
CMLL and AAA
WWE is first rate, CMLL in between two tiers I guess, AAA second tier, I would have put NJPW there too but they've fallen off hard and the shockingly low price at which they recently sold is proof of the fact that their business is failing and they have no draws left (plus the shows are kinda shitty now)
AEW is third rate in every aspect, talent, professionalism, relevance. it doesn't draw, it doesn't make stars, it really doesn't do anything except force wrestling fans to suffer the braindead spam of its bots and mentally ill fanbase
>>
>>20817542
AAA? lol

AEW outdraws AAA. CMLL outdraws WWE.

>force wrestling fans to suffer

dronies still cryin'
>>
>>20817542
>force wrestling fans to suffer the braindead spam of its bots and mentally ill fanbase
The lack of self awareness here is astonishing
>>
>>20817558
Like everything the pigs say, it's just repeating what has been said about them. It hurt their feelings, but they don't know why.
>>
>>20817565
Every edrone accusation is secretly a confession. Makes you wonder about the pedo spam they have going on right now.
>>
>>20817520
>WWE will take top talent from other places and actually push them
So over the last couple years and on the main roster alone: Penta, Vaquer, Giulia, I'll be nice and not mention Punk, Cawdy or Rusev cause they came back home, Mariah May, Ethan Page, Ricky.
>>20817541
>they all do BAD
They really don't
Vaquer and Giulia were pushed hard and Vaquer did exceptionally well, I'll be the first to say that her booking is boring and could have been much better, yet she went from who? To one of the bigger names on their women's main roster in a year, with bad booking. Still an actual push, hard to argue otherwise. Penta is being pushed hard right now and has been interacting with main eventers and upper midcarders for a long time. Blake is pushed. Danhausen is pushed, so are Ethan Page, really even Joe Hendry is pushed. The only exception is for some reason Jordynne, so I'll give you this one, she's just kinda there and I lament it cause there's something to do with her.
But here's the fact, no matter how much you can bitch about the booking, these are all actual pushes. These guys are featured prominently, have won titles. They all came in with actual talent, and good work ethic, and it's been rewarded. It's actually the one thing that's much better now than under Vince, there is something of a burgeoning meritocracy in this nonsense

Hey boys, if you want to samefag gay shit while having zero argument, you could get a room instead of doing it in public
But no, here you go with your passive-agressive nonsense, which is hilariously, exactly what I'm talking about lol
Great job fags
>>
>>20817553
>AEW outdraws AAA
By what metric lol
>CMLL outsraws WWE
How come WWE makes like 200 times their annual revenue in ticket sales alone?
Tribalistic gayEWtrannies are so fucking dumb I swear, the biggest lil bro syndrome of all the fanbases on earth
>>
>>20817569
I don't wonder.

>>20817586
>WWE pricegouging me is good actually

AEW brings in more money than jejAAA and consistently has more asses in seats. There's a reason one of those promotions died on the vine shortly after their partnership ended. HINT: it's the one that got bought out.
>>
>>20817597
>AEW brings in more money
Fucking how lmao

AEW's TV deal alone is probably worth more than AAA period
>>
>>20817609
>We're actually two totally different cunts that just happen to talk the exact same way and agree with others
I suppose either AEW only draws one exact type of fan lmao or you've pulled your phone out of your butt long enough to post with it
>>
>>20817617
>probably
Hmmmm I see
So you don't actually know anything about those numbers but you can tell me with a straight face that a program that pays its stars WWE money and has WWE-styke production while drawing a fraction of what WWE does and selling to fewer people at lower price actually totally makes money because it was revealed to you in a dream
Let's be honest bro, either Tony is a business genius, a money launderer, or just a rich billionaire that never earned a cent in his life but is rich enough that he can keep a business venture losing several millions a year
Gee I wonder which it is
>>
>>20817633
>WWE money

It's 2026 hermanito, they're not even paying top guys anymore.

>WWE-styke production

ope
>>
>>20816820
wat dat mean
>>
>>20817623
You forgot the likeliest explanation - you're a schizo.
>>
>>20817647
Yes yes WWE pays nobody, that's why exactly nobody leaves for AEW anymore and they haven't signed anybody significant in how many years now?
>>
>>20817654
kek sure boyo, whatever
Not a single argument, just pure seethe because I said something bad about AEW but you're totally sane of course
>>

They had no response to this kek

Get a room you two.
>>
>>20817669
Mariah May was also literally not booked at all for 6 months straight after the so-called biggest feud of her career kek
Turns out serious wrestlers want to work and get over who knew
Also good job proving your samefagging by forgetting to reply in another post lmao
>>
>>20817677
I'm discussing the literal topic at hand and if I'm gonna rape a tranny you better believe I'm not paying for a room and do it in public
>>

lose 'em + meds

>>20817685
e-drones literally CANNOT quit fixating on their fetishes.
>>
>>20817728
They really can't.
>>
>>20816867
give Giulia her old piano theme and put her in the Don Callis family, or put her in an abusive relationship with Luther until Toni cones back and they can fight for their right to Lutha, that's 50 percent better then being a cookie cutter wwe guy
>>
>the AEW cult is so desperate for new toys to keep them interested in their dying fag fed that they are fantasy booking Guilia of all fucking people
I feel bad for them
>>
>>20818247
giullia used to be fun to watch, before she joined the weinstein fed. i think people just like to watch stuff and wished they had that back.
>>
>>20818251
You aren't happy with your Shida toy anymore?
>>
>>20818257
what does shida have to do with people thinking about ways giulia could unfuck her career?
>>
>>20817527
Is this a bot? This makes no sense

True
