Wrestling in general has suffered from an obsession with "doing moves", but I think women's wrestling has especially suffered by not taking advantage of psychology/drama in favor of doing terrible gymnastics routines. Britt Baker is a prime example of this. She does tons of moves, but has no real character or personality outside of "dentist lady".

I wouldn't mind if she turned the dentist shit up to a Issac Yankem levels
but yeah a big plague of the modern scene is people just stringing series of moves together in order, and no real sense of connecting them into a coherent whole

I get why they do it because it appeals to to the ape brain that likes to see cool tricks, but the problem is of course that if you just do tricks without story then there isn;t any reason for people to see the show more than once. I kind of think Murican wrasslin learned the wrong lessons from Lucha Libre. They do the flips and dives, but without the rudo/technico psychology that makes those things mean something.

a thousand percent this
they also missed the "do this as part of a 3v3 match, and take rolling bumps" which is why they're not going to be working into their seventies like some lucha guys

For a 40 years of Wrestlemania I'd expected people who have actually done shit in Wrestlemania or a main eventer, like Batista (who still hasn't got his induction), Lex Luger, the rock, bam bam, hell even Bray could've been the main event inductee. How am I moron for saying it was a meh hall of fame class in the grand scheme of being a celebration of 40 years of mania, sure Paul got In due to the Philly connection & is probably representing ecw as a whole, but you got to be a retard if you think that class is better than 2022 where taker, the fucking stiener's & Vader got Inducted.

And 2 of them are inducted are known for japan/territory work. Not being in wwe as a whole.

I have the distinct memory of Batista saying he would want to be inducted 10 years after his retirement because that's how the NFL times out HOF inductions. I still think Bray should've been inducted though. I missed a lot of his career, but he was in the business long enough to warrant an induction.
