How It Should Have Ended

[troythecatfish]

Dignity is adhering to social norms in the face of extraordinary circumstance.

Can somebody help me find where I read this?? This thought popped in my head suddenly and I want to read more about it but I dont remember the source

The band who continued playing while the titanic sank was given as an example.

Why do I have to worry about social norms in the face of imminent death? Why should expressing emotions be such a taboo WHEN WE'RE GOING TO DIE

WHERE DID I GET THIS THOUGHT

The saddest part of the Titanic musical pro-shot is they cut my favourite line and 99% of the character who said it.

(Okay, that's probably not the saddest part. lol)

I’m seeing people say Forbidden Door is too AEW focused this year, but when you objectively look at the card, it really isn’t.

Mercedes v Vaquer

Toni v Mina

Danielson v Shingo

Mox v Naito

Orange v ZSJ

MJF v Hechicero

AEW only matches:

Ladder match (so far)

Swerve v Ospreay

That is only 2 out of 8 matches, like what are you saying. And there's a high chance there will be more cross promotional matches revealed later this week, since Gabe Kidd and El Phantasmo showed up to Rampage pretapings last week.

There’s less multimans this year, so numbers wise, it feels like there’s less representation from other companies. BUT I counter that the downside to the multimans is not everyone can share the same amount of spotlight--you have some wrestlers getting more shine while others mostly hang out on the apron. These singles matches can have more focus on the individual wrestlers of other companies. Tho I do anticipate the inclusion of more multimans on the pre-show.

I think the mistake on both AEW and the fan's part is marketing FD as a NJPWxAEW event moving forward. NJPW is still getting most of the representation (they're half of the outside talent), but this is definitely an AEWxThe World type of ppv now. And the downside to opening the door to more companies collaborating is that the spots and plots that would've gone to NJPW are now going to CMLL or Stardom. The shows are already 5+ hours long, and you can only fit so many matches on the card. People were complaining on the lack of interpromotional women's matches or lucha libre rep in past years, and now we have two title defenses from two different companies! And while I don't think the MJF-Hechicero match is the best combination, it's still something for CMLL along with Stephanie Vaquer. The optimal FD card is having 0 AEW v AEW matches, but I believe we can get there.

Personally, I don't think there should or can be separate ppvs for the different promotions ie, a FD just with NJPW or a FD just with CMLL. Logistically, it sounds like a nightmare considering implementing build time, working out visas and travelling. I don't think it's a coincidence Fantasticamania Mexico and USA are happening in close proximity to FD--all the relevant NJPW talent are in the same continent so travel between the states and Mexico is easier than if they're going back and forth from Japan. The moment I saw Hiromu Takahashi on the Fantasticamania MX card for a week, I knew there's no way TK could resist booking him for AEW while he's in the same hemisphere. Hiromu, Titan, and ZSJ were on Tuesday's CMLL show in Mexico City and they're literally showing up on Dynamite in Buffalo, NY the day after.

Now the interesting question is: why are fans feeling like it's AEW-focused when on paper, it's the opposite? I think it partly falls down to the aforementioned issue of the expectation of more NJPW presence on a program where there's two other promotions sharing the spotlight now. CMLL doesn’t have a big presence in ENG speaking circles as compared to NJPW, so there’s less familiarity/hype when a CMLL wrestler shows up in a guest spot vs when a NJPW fan fav shows up on AEW. But I also think the other part of the problem lies on the plots/build leading up to the show and how unbalanced it is.

I'd argue the builds that have the most presence on AEW programing are Swerve v Ospreay, Toni v Mina, Ladder Match and the rest following suit in varying degrees. You get the occasional appearance from TMDK or Shingo or a luchador but those top three matches are given the most promo+match time until the couple shows before the ppv. Hechicero has shown up a lot lately but his match up against MJF felt last minute and not the direction they were headed with his character. Naturally, AEW talent have more free time to promote the matches in ways the outside talent can't due to travel, visas and scheduling--NJPW are still doing their tours in Japan and Fantasticamania Mexico this week, CMLL do shows 4 days a week every week plus some of their talent had visa issues earlier this year. Mina is the only exception to this as she's been reliably flying in and making appearances even before Double or Nothing, which I consider a plus and how AEW should book for FD moving forward. She's been so seamlessly integrated into the show and the story with Toni and Mariah having been such a constant presence, she doesn't feel too much like an outsider. I think the issue with FD in previous years is that most of the ongoing plots in AEW have to take a pause for FD season, or they have to awkwardly insert NJPW talent into it somehow or the build only starts a couple weeks before the show. Mina's handling has avoided that, but you can't say the same for the Ladder Match and Swerve v Ospreay which has the opposite problem of not involving outside talent at all. I'm not entirely too happy with Swerve v Ospreay main eventing but I don't hate it either. I can see why AEW chose to do it and how it's probably more beneficial to their long term plans. But at the expense of downplaying the interpromotional focus of the show for TWO their biggest titles is :/ and something I hope they won't repeat again in the future.

And speaking of titles, there's the whole discourse of Moxley being the iwgp champ and questioning the relationship between the promotions that's skewed people's perception of FD. I'll say Mox deserves to be world champ and its unfair to say he's unworthy or his defenses are meaningless; the guy was in the G1 and appeared in NJPW before joining AEW, plus it's also up to NJPW to approve of the title defenses in the first place. I think half of this problem lies with NJPW's struggle in pushing new main eventers from their already talented roster and the other half is AEW protecting themselves too much in the booking. There’s an existing story of a full on AEW vs NJPW war the wrestlers and fans talk about but the companies don’t want to play into it to protect the image of their partnership. I originally wrote a whole thing explaining this point further, but it kinda got off topic and too lengthy so I'll just say this: regardless of what your thoughts are about the title reign, the discourse around it and how the match most likely isn't main eventing is not a good look on AEW's part and has swayed some fans' opinion of the representation of the card. I don't think this assessment is entirely fair to knock the whole ppv down or doom write about how AEW is screwing over NJPW, but I understand how a fan's frustration of it can taint their perception of FD.

don't know if I want to draw guro art here. I started with this as one of the main fds was the attack of the titans.... but I do not know how much people here generally want to see this. still, I probably would like to draw something calm and everyday myself, but at the same time sometimes something can only be conveyed through dirt.... I'll think about it 🤔

GP Espoo 2022 - Impressions

This is it! All GPs are done, GPF in 2 weeks time. Hell of a ride, but there have been some great moments, ngl.

Men: This is the competition and discipline and I liked the least from all the GP series men comps. Extremely happy for Jun, Kevin show cased an amazing SP & FS (I love the Gladiator soundtrack, too), gold went to the jumper as we always knew it would happen. Partly because it was a sort of pre-determined result, I really couldn't properly enjoy it.

Women: I adore Mana's SP (even though I don't like Billie Eilish), Mai's FS was gorgeous and Rika really won me over with her Titanic FS (robbed, she should've won the free). Can't remember much about the other girls 'cause non of them drew my attention.

Ice Dance: Wang/Liu are beautiful. That FD with the mermaid/sailor theme - I enjoyed it a lot. The Finnish pair was pretty cool and good job for them getting bronze. I fell asleep and didn't see H/B nor G/P

Pairs: Didn't watch.

Espoo was really chill compared to all the others, I didn't like this relaxed vibe 🤣
