That's because wrestlers used to have personas and could work a crowd because they were actually focused on being pro wrestlers, as opposed to all these indie shitters larping as wrestlers using BEEG MOOBS every 30 seconds as a coping mechanism to get over

Darby HAS the potential to have a cool persona though, he has a cool enough look, an over entrance etc. Can't he just fight like a scrappy underdog that doesn't care about his safety without ACTUALLY not caring about his safety?

The kid is acting like he's Mick Foley and he just isn't.

Ok where are all those “safe entertainers” now?
>Haitch has a heart attack
>Rock’s in Hollywood
>Cena’s in Hollywood
>Austin’s retired since ‘03
Meanwhile look at AJ, Jeff, Christian etc
All of them still wrestle unlike those faggots. Make fun of indie wrestlers, but they’re the only ones who have soul in their performance.

I've never watched AEW. What the fuck is he thinking? This is supposed to be a 'professional' wrestler in a supposedly professional company? What a dangerous faggot.

That generation failed to pass the torch in every important area, except pushing boundaries. HBK gave birth to the Hardys, who then birthed the indie flyers. That gen invented hardcore, invented TLC, invented over the top gmmick matches. The indies are just taking it further.

I like wrestlers that go supernova and burn out after a couple years more than shitters that hang around for a decade doing the same boring stuff.

AJ worked a safe style, (for himself). Christian took 9 years off, Jeff is a junkie

Darby can actually wrestle though. You're describing Sammy more than Darby.

Let's get one thing straight here. None of the modern era of hurting Flippy Bois trying to hurt themselves have any of the reason/emotion Mick did. Mick did dangerous stuff to make people react due to in ring psychology. No one is gasping and worrying about Darby when he does Coffin Drop #2087

Yeah Mankind and Cactus took those bumps and were portrayed as dangerously insane. Darby is taking this level of risk and it doesn't enhance his nihilist character much more

Every one of them still say they wish they'd taken fewer bumps (regardless of whether they got over from the ones they did take). Trampoline marks have bumped harder and more often than "legends" ever did, usually without steroids too to help with recovery.
