Is JoJO that same girl that Orton dated when she was like 18 and he was 40?
I don't know what I witnessed, but I never want to witness this ever again.
Unless I'm high and created a game for this.

I'm not actually watching as I gave up WWE a while ago. What's happening?
With shit like this you can destroy your legitimacy to ever getting pushed again at any place.

Akira Tozawa turned up dressed as ninja on a motorbike.
The hilarious thing is that "cinematic" matches are just... normal television.
Without the ineffable.. something that Matt Hardy brought to the genre, they're just badly-written, badly-edited, badly-acted television that nobody would accept if they weren't presented as "wrestling".
Corporations are paying billions of dollars for objectively some of the worst programming on television. I just don't get it.

Thank you for the info on the person. He was super tall
Cinematic wrestling can be entertaining as hell when done right.
I just want to add that the thought of Orton having the greatest wrestling match ever is hilarious to me.
Edge is great, but he's not gonna get any kind of special regular match out of Ran Ran. lol

Oh, yeah, I'm not disputing that. All the Matt Hardy stuff was great, I'm a huge Lucha Underground mark, and the AEW matches that have swung into cinematic territory have all been pretty good.
It's mostly WWE that doesn't get how they work at all, because they usually devolve into highly-scripted Vince Fetish territory.
I almost wonder if they took the crowd audio from Edge/Orton's older matches and worked this match to coincide with those lol
That skit with Street Profits was like some shit I made with my friends when I was 15...but from a billion dollar company lmao.
Not going to lie, I'm enjoying the added crowd noise, but I cringe when it gets too noticeable.
They said they amplified the crowd noise not piped it in so they turned the mics up to to 100 for the fake nxt crowd to make it sound like a full arena
Edit
Take it back totally some piped in noise

I don't understand why they had to position Edge as some master technician. He was a good wrestler, but not someone who needed 40 minute matches.
Either way, I seriously doubt that we'll be seeing many of these once crowds are back in full. No live crowd will be down with those matches.
