Cause wrasslin was still pretending it was real so most moves were grapples
Injuries only really started happening when people started leaving their feet

The ring back then was a solid boxing ring. It was way worse to bump in

It's easier not getting hurt when you're not doing dives and flips every night like a mark.

wrestling is holds, submissions, slams and suplexes. "flying" isn't wrestling, it doesn't belong and it exposes wrestling as fake every time.

They're only dimes if they're on draws, not shitters who cost WWE over half its regular viewership

Gorilla Monsoon is the ref, 6'8" 400+ pounds. Vince Sr was blind to the optics of a ref mogging his top guy

Roman drew more than Bruno and Inoki, tranny. WWE under him is the biggest wrestling company in history.

IN the territory era, guys would routinely wrestle over 300 matches per year, often 8 matches a week (afternoon and evening show on Saturdays).

Unlike Roman, Bruno and Inoki were actually real and genuine draws and weren't carried by the company's brand. It doesn't matter who's the champ in WWE today, the brand is the draw, not the wrestlers.

Schedules were infinitely worse back then. It's why so many wrasslers were fucking crippled and at younger ages than guys now, despite the current crop of marks nearly killing themselves in their matches.

The travel was lighter. Instead of catching planes across the world Bruno would work in a New York-New England-Pennsylvania loop for most of his matches.
