Everyone always blames HBK for influencing the indy flippy shitter style of today, but this dude is just as guilty.

RVD actually made it look fluid, even though he has a weird stocky frame. Everyone else these days is 180 pounds sopping wet and button mashes their way through matches

Everything RVD did had such weight to it, his "flippy" offense looked far better than shawns

Blaming Shawn for influencing them is very shallow. They just happen to like spamming superkicks so he gets blamed because that was his finisher.
But fundamentally he has nothing in common with those guys. He hit the gym, was a trash talking Chad and fucked rats.
So when someone bitches and moans about how much they hate thigh slapping midget #6543 and blames Shawn Michaels for guys like that I roll my eyes, because those flabby video playing nerds are nothing like Shawn Michaels was.

I'd rather watch this than two faggots trading headlocks for 40 minutes. E-drones love bitching about flippy shitters but in your minds the alternative is Randy Orton vs John Cena and 75% of the match is rest holds because they both know they're already signed to multi million dollar contracts for the rest of their careers and they genuinely can't be fucking assed to do anything better.

If you queers came here and offered the King's Road style or something actually realistic and hard hitting as an alternative you might have a point but it's always just the Vince McMahon wet dream of 6'5" bodybuilders who can't/won't work a decent looking match spamming chinlocks on eachother. It's boring, it looks fake as fuck and it's homoerotic on purpose. There's no difference between some "WWE style" shitter like Mizetty whiffing punches left and right and the Young Cucks whiffing every dropkick they throw.

HBK too made everything look fluid too. And he was awesome on the mic. Indy shitters just decided to copy the worst parts. It's their fault, not HBK.

People were doing superkicks way before Shawn did it.Shawn definitely put the work in before he had the back injury. I agree, the comparison is a slap in the face to Shawn.

RVD isn't a skinny vanilla midget who has to rely on flip shits.
He's the same weight-class as Hunter and the rest of the heavyweight main event scene but is twenty times more athletic.
THAT is why he stood out and can't be compared to the indy flip shit of today.
Go watch some tapes, fag boy.

FTR are just fanboys, they don't wrestle like Bret the way the Young Bucks or Adam Cole cosplay Shawn. And the biggest influence Bret had on Punk was holding petty grudges against everyone, nothing to do with ring work

Shawn wrestled nothing like these dweebs. Saying they're cosplaying him because they do superkicks is like saying Nia Jax was cosplaying Hulk Hogan because she did a leg drop.

You don't actually like wrestling, that's why you want every match to be nothing but restholds and punch-kicking that never actually connects. Don't even fucking try to lie to me brother. Nobody is actually watching a 3 hour episode of Raw and not spending most of it staring at their phone.

RVD is a midget, but he's not skinny. Also his flippy shit just reminded me of a martial arts movie like the fag he's named after, Jean Claude Van Damme. Modern flippy shit, seems like it wants to be Naruto. Especially that one flippy kick spam match between Atom Smol & Johnny Gargano.

Good way of showing you know nothing about wrestling. Next you'll tell me Chris Jericho is a good in-ring worker and Davey Richards does more than one type of match.

Nobody with a brain actually blames HBK because HBK still had a character, was entertaining and sold a lot.
