Nice strawman argument. He needs Albert and Smiley to teach him how to pace a match, some ring psychology beyond anime/videogame inspired spots, how to connect with and work the crowd etc. Just because indie wrestling has devolved into the cruelest form of matches which is
>gotta get all my shit in at 160mph and do nothing but athletic moves
Doesn't mean it's objectively good or the best.

You rub elbows with the big draws, teach a thing or two from them etc. back then they all shared the same locker rooms and had quality road agents. Even the jobbers had the mentality of doing what's best for business and were taught what draws, what to do and what not to do. You can cope all you want, but the fact remains the same. Even if WWE brought in Hogan, Austin, Bret, The Rock etc. to work with the young guys you fags would find some kind of excuse. I just wish you would finally accept the shit you like is objectively like the Formula 2/3 racing to the Formula 1 racing and only works for a small subset of the audience.

Kek at all these faggots and pretend normies talking about jocks and nerds like wrestling is some kind of high school drama. All of you fags are social rejects who got bullied in high school and never ever played a sport. I say this as someone who is a shoot 6'4", did a lot of karate in my formative years and dropped it when I got a green belt, played a lot of soccer as my dad was a coach for a tiny local team and eventually ended up playing high school basketball for 4 years so I'm undoubtedly more athletic than 95% of you hailing from Dunkin Donuts fatties here.
That being said, no doubt having an athletic background helps, but the name of the game is getting a clue. All your favorites like Hogan and Austin were huge marks for wrestling, the difference being that Austin and Hogan looked up to wrestlers who actuqlly drew a dime, whereas most of the modern dorks look up to dimeless gooks. Logan quickly gained a clue because he was never a fan of pro wrestling and, as such, never had any kind of exposure to dimeless gooks and only ever heard about the likes of Orton, Cena etc. which loops back to my first point that it isn't about being a mark as much as it is about who you're a mark for. Logan is also athletic as previously established but he also has 8 years of previous experience as an entertainer.
You also fail to acknowledge Logan is extremely one dimensional and can only really play that cocky young shitter character but that's a story for another day.

Whether I like them or not? Not necessarily, but it isn't that simple.
If your guy is short and he is presented as a legitimate threat and an equal to the 6'3+ guys on the roster then that's complete and utter bullshit. If your guy is short and presented as an underdog with an apt gimmick, think Mysterio or Bryan, then that's cool and they certainly have a high ceiling because people always want to cheer for the underdog. Might not be face of the company tier, because becoming the face of the company more or less removes your underdog status, but definitely deserves a world title run.
If your guy is short but he's presented as a weasely chickenshit heel who always cheats to win, runs from fights whenever he's able to and has a bigger bodyguard, then that's also completely fine as manlets go, think MJF or Christian's 2010s WWE run. Much lower ceiling than the underdog babyface, but can still reach a high level if he's skilled enough.
It also largely depends on the wrestling style. If you're a manlet then your only two options are
1. Wrestling like a high flyer/luchador, throwing your entire body mass at your opponents at incredible hihg speeds being the only way you can stop them. Think Darby or Mysterio.
2. Being a ball of muscle suplex machine. A small guy using his smaller hitbox and his speed advantage to avoid strikes and grapples and uses shoot martial arts grapples and holds thanks to his insane strength is also extremely believable and cool. Think Benoit or Taz or Gable.
Violating any of the above makes yoi a shitter in my book.

What would the absolute perfect wrestling fed look like according to (you)?
For me it would be
>roster to mostly consist of territory era tier wrestlers, hicks, shoot badasses etc. less roidtards, more hoss types, less manlets, every now and then bring in a carnival attraction kind of wrestler
>ideally the prevalent wrestling style on the roster is reminiscent of 1995-1998 WWF, not too fast, not too slow, not too many over the top retarded moves but also not groundhug irish whip headlock scoop slam
>keep things serious and gritty. Mix in a decent amount of the Attitude Era/ECW edge. Bigger focus on backstage segments and people who can work the mic
>not a lot of hardcore shit and blood should be used sparingly
>no wominx in the ring, wominx managers are okay
>smaller tag team division
>matches should mostly stick to 1v1s and 2v2s, triple threats and four way matches reserved for big story matches.
>match types to mostly stick to the grounded stuff, like standard 1v1s, 2 out of 3 fall matches, iron man matches etc. cage matches, ladder matches and street fights to be reserved for big rivalries.

How do you even get over on the indies without being a flips per second mark? I'm not particularly versed in indie promotions but it seems like rarely anyone values promos and styles that aren't all about sawdusting yourself intentionally. If we were laying down a match backstage and my little midget faggot opponent told me he wanted to do a dragonrana or canadian destroyer spot or even a fucking hurricanrana I'd shoot either big league him or kill that little bitch right then and there depending on how cooperative they/them is.

I like Roman and hate IWC but my god sometimes you faggots stick to an agenda just for the sake of sticking to an agenda.
For one, Cody is a product of the WWE and sports entertainment personified, as such, he doesn't have the indie stink Bryan had on him and even Bryan was arguably WWEfied by the time WM30 came around. Did he kill the ratings? Highly unlikely, because there's no fucking way in hell Vince would've put the strap on him again when he returned from injury years later. We've all seen what happens to real anti draws like Jack Swagger. Bryan, much like Cena, was very over with the kids in the WWE fanbase and so is CAWdy.
And TWO, long champ reigns are fucking boring and this one, as well as the Gunther reign, has been going on for far too long. In fact, two extremely long title reigns going on at the same time is fucking boring. Reigns should've dropped the belt in 2023 and in hindsight dropping it to Cody at WM39 would've been a better decision since we would've gotten Rock vs Roman at WM40. Gunther should've also dropped the belt to whoever and challenged for Cody's title at WM40.

Nigga you really think indie wrestling fans know shit about wrestling psychology? Here's a 100% unadulterated shoot: most of these people are heavily bothered by the fact that wrestling is a work and are too autistic to suspend their belief in wrestling and enjoy the classic kind of wrestling where 2 or more meatheads create an imaginary rivalry and beat the shit out of each other so they cope by watching the indies, 99% of which is "wink wink hehe we all know this is fake and you're all autistic so we're gonna turn wrestling into a gymnastics exhibition and do physically impressive, extremely choreographed spots akin to those hecking yummy arcade wrestling games you played as a kid as there is no longer a point in attempting to get you to think this is all a shoot".
Here's another shoot: most of the people watching this also want to feel special and holier than thou, as they think they're so much better for watching this lesser known thing. I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing as I'm part of that mindset in many hobbies I indulge in, but it feels like a lot of these people are just doing it purely for the sake of feeling special. E.g. I don't like most commercial pop music because 1) i hate normalfags and don't wanna associate with them 2) it kinda sucks, therefore I find some niche music I enjoy but I'm not gonna pretend to like some lesser known shit like Radiohead just to feel special and a part of this hecking sophisticated group of non normalfags, instead I find niche shit I PERSONALLY like and listen to it. It's a bit different when it comes to wrestling though, because all the alternatives suck dick. Every once in a blue moon something similar to the style I like comes along, such as TNA, ECW, WCW and NWA, and I try my best to get into it.
