    Hey PRW, thanks for making the video! Appreciate the shout out
    Even though Benoit’s murder was pretty much my breaking point to stop liking wrestling, Punk and Bryan were the nails in the coffin
    Both of them were geeky, skinny ROH guys that nerds could see themselves in. Ironically both their best roles were as moralfag heels
    But as top babyfaces they absolutely sucked. No other wrestler was given as many chances as these two and both have failed constantly
    Punk was given a 1 year WWE title reign and Daniel Bryan was inserted into the WM main event not once but twice! And both times it ruined the momentum of a major draw in the ruthless aggression era
    Punk’s Pipebomb enabled other wrestlers to bitch and complain on TV and backstage about their booking to get pushes
    Yes Movement started the indie workrate bullshit. Guys like Bryan, AJ Styles, Finn Balor, KO, Sami Zayn who didn’t belong in WWE were signed on and stunk up the division

      Yes, because wrestlers you don't like being pushed is worse than Benoit murdering his wife and 6 YEAR OLD SON! You're not a ridiculous person at all. 🙄😒

      Also, how dare Bryan "ruin the momentum" of guys who were multiple time world champions and WM main eventers. It always sucks when an established star uses backstage politics to bury young and upcoming guys like Batista and Edge. 😣😂

    Here's my top 10 reasons why The Pipebomb and Yes Movement were detrimental towards wrestling industry:
    1. It awakened the IWC smark fans.
    2. It created this false narrative that part-time wrestlers like Goldberg, The Rock, Lesnar, and Batista are not fit to be main eventers.
    3. It made wrestlers who would have been enhancement talent like a Kevin Owens or Sami Zayn a false sense of entitlement by thinking that they deserve to be main eventers.
    4. It put pressure on WWE and other wrestling promotions to hire wrestlers who are indie darlings.
    5. It made mediocre at best wrestlers that are not fit to be main eventers the power to complain and go on a tyrade on the wrestling company they work in because of the so called perceived injusticed they faced.
    6. It made wrestlers that are small and unappealing towards normal people being given the pushed that they think deserved.
    7. It allowed the IWC smark fans to hijack the wrestling company to the point that these promoters have no choice but to caved in to their demands.
    8. It made casual fans like me and others become disinterested in wrestling.
    9. It lead to ratings declining and it never recovered.
    10. It never amounted to anything in terms attracting new viewers and every flavor of the month that are pushed ends up being a flop.

      @@BartTomOShea I see where you coming from. I can take constructive criticism when I don't make any sense sometimes. The first reason is that those fans have been around watching wrestling since the 90s and after the pipebomb happens their voice amplified even more. The ninth reason I can see the ratings dropping anytime and every boom period that happend in WWE have gone on a down slope right after Golden Era and Attitude Era ended.

    These two key events pretty much started the downfall of pro wrestling. Pro wrestling really needs WCW to come back to life and start putting belts to arses. I really think that WCW would have nipped this entire movement in the butt immediately as soon as it started.

    This feels like you're trolling, or your wrestling takes are dogsh't, bro.
    First of all if you watched the Pipe bomb promo, Punk never said he should be pushed because of his "moveset" he said he was best overall guy in the company (something that was hard to argue in 2011) "I'm the best in that ring, on the mic, even on commentary. Nobody can touch me!"
    Bryan was the hottest guy in wrestling from 2012-2014 (and no it wasn't just because of the YES catchphrase, WWE tried giving Big Show the yes chant and no one gave a flying f'ck. Also Bryan got that chant over in the first place, so that argument was always bs anyway) pushing him made sense. Not his fault he got injured. 🤷
    Also, Internet fans have been hijacking shows since like the mid 00s. One Night Stand 06 ring any bells?
    Also, also, your Batista comments makes me think you're probably a Trumper. So chances are most of your opinions are dogsh't anyway. 😂

      Dude, regarding the MAGA comment....that mentality is why you guys lost and continue to lose for the foreseeable future. Joe Rogan said it best ~ Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were the last managers of Blockbuster. Also, your wrestling opinions are also dog water. A chant got Bryan over, whereas Big Show never needed a chant. That chant was the star, not Bryan. Bryan is in a dying AEW company with his best years behind him.

      @Shawn6751 First of all, it was just one election. You guys were in the same boat 4 years ago. And at least we didn't attack the US Capitol building, like some people I know. 😉 And with how divided the country is, chances are we're going to get a lot of one-termers (or non-consecutive two-termers, in the orange clown's case) in a row, for a while. Well Joe Rogan was a lefty like 2-3 years ago, but now he's larping as a conservative because he has no real principles and he knows conservatives are much more gullible and therefore easier to grift to. Also, imagine having your political opinions influenced by Joe Rogan. Truly one of the great intellectual minds of our day. 🤣
      Bryan was over before the chant, he got the yes chant over, not the other way around. And Big Show was never anywhere close to as over as Bryan is, with, or without the chant. So was Hogan when he was in WCW in the year 2000, so what?
