1032004 Posted January 27, 2024 Share Posted January 27, 2024 I’m sure it’s some of both, but I’m curious if the bigger reason for the boos is the prior charges, or just that he’s not good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pro wrestling is an ugly, dark sport .... as seen in the McMahon allegations this week. I'm going with he's just not very good as seen last year in his really ugly start. 1 Sponsored by INTERMAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will they continue to cheer on Lesnar at this point? Sponsored by INTERMAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a seriously great comedian, richard pryor or something, was asked who they thought the funniest person on earth was, and he said Rick Flair. If you are a WWE wrestler, and you don't have kevin nash, undertaker type physicality size and therefore gravity, you really need to be a performer. Not sure he is.

After the appearances at Wrestlemania and Smackdown events, getting "drafted", and perfoming in NXT, moving to dark and house shows two and a half years in seems a demotion.

Jason Bryant Posted January 27, 2024 Share Posted January 27, 2024 Dark matches are matches that are live, but not televised. Events that are live, but not televised are called “house shows.” There might be a handful of dark matches tonight before the Royal Rumble, for example. Insert catchy tagline here.
