Why is wrestling the only industry where the mainstream option is the best option? Every other industry the indie scene is Superior to the mainstream slop by a landslide. In wrestling however, WWE is always the superior option and the mom and pop shit can’t hope to compete.

Because the top promotions are filled with cultists who do not look for more than the most accessible and known forms of their own interest while simultaneously looking down on others who do take time to expand on their knowledge.

In this case Vince disinterest was the best thing that happened to the indies. Bloodbath hardcore wrestling and hard strong style matches with guys who would never leave. HHH and Khan are the reason the indies are full of troons and faggots

This has never been true
Mainstream shit is mainstream because more people like it than indie shit, meaning it is objectively better
If you think indie shit is better than mainstream shit it's because you acquired a taste for it i.e. you forced yourself to be exposed to it until it became appealing
That doesn't mean it's good, it means you convinced yourself it's good
I acquired a taste for black coffee by drinking it until I no longer thought it tasted like shit through desensitization, but I'd have to be a fuckin moron to say it's superior to coffee with some cream and sugar

this is your subjective opinion. which is worth nothing. youre an outlier, the same way a guy who thinks the room is the best film ever made is an outlier. the numbers are all that matters, they show on average that more people think that wwe is better.

It is the best football game, yes. That is why it sells the most
>Is Marvel Endgame the best movie because it sold the most tickets?
Movies get made for the purpose of selling tickets thereby turning a profit so yes.
You are basically asking in two different ways if the product (thing which is expressly designed to be sold) that sells the most (performs the function of a product better than any other product in its class) is the best such product.
The answer is yes. Yes it is.

Correct. It had multiple competitors for over a decade, but won out over all of them by virtue of being the best one, and is now the last one standing.

NFL wouldn't have accepted that offer for an inferior product. Again, it's their brand on the line.
>>8171774
By the only objective measure we have, which is how many people choose to eat there vs. other places, it is indeed the best fast food.
People always want to bring up McDonald's in these arguments, not realizing that they are shooting themselves in the foot. Yes, it is fashionable to pretend to be above McD's, and to pretend that the food tastes bad, but if this were true, they simply wouldn't sell as many burgers as they do. It's incontrovertible.

Madden smarks are some of the dumbest fucks on the planet. NCAA was light years ahead of madden game play wise and nobody goes back to it. Arena Football games were a marked down grade but nobody bitches about EA for that. Nobody brings up the NFL Street series (again, EA) or any of the meme games like Blitz or Mutant Football or Blood Bowl and maybe for valid reasons. But what really gets me is that for all intents and purposes Axis Football is the exact same game as Madden and the average football fan doesnt know it exists. You dont want an alternative football game, you want an alternative NFL game because youre just as brand obsessed as everybody else. 2k fucking sucks. As far as i can tell the only thing 2k does right is NBA but i dont play the damn games cause im not a porch monkey. Quit bitching about madden just because youre a contrarion thats obsessed with black people

You think like an autistic. Most things, especially taste and entertainment aren't objective.

For instance I enjoy salads, but you probably think anything that's green tastes yucky. I love wearing one of my expensive watches but you probably hate the sensation of a watch around your wrist, even if it has your favorite cartoon character on it.

Indeed. Thus, the only objective measure by which we can rank the quality of most things is: how many people like it? Based on the very simple concept that if a thing is good, people will tend to like it. It's quite simple, anon.
As to your other points, I do enjoy salads! Preferably Caesar, but even spring mix with oil and vinegar will do. Wristwatches look nice, but mine are too dressy for casual wear, so I tend to just rely on my phone for the time.
