Mine is when they reveal the royal rumble contestants early like a couple is fine, but they reveal all of them except five legends, and sometimes they reveal the legend.
Yes the distracting part is most annoying for me. If I’m in a big match (as a competitor) , I’m lazer focused on the ring not who’s coming down the ramp.
My biggest pet peeve is how they can break up some fights but not others. So they couldn’t stop Kofi getting attacked by Ludwig but they stopped Cody and Nakumara
huh? that never happens.... if anything the worst thing is every time the person is tryna cash in the ref is like "are u sure this is unethical" type shit but like who cares its legal just let me cash it in your wasting time.
One of my (many) issues with current tropes is the term "finisher". I'm old and "back in my day" when a wrestler got hit with a finisher, that was it....1, 2, 3. Now you have to hit your opponent with your finisher, a chair, a lead pipe and a restraining order to get the pin.
Yeah, I especially hate it that Cody’s made it a “thing” to hit 3 cross Rhodes in a row for big matches. It makes the guys who lose to 1 cross Rhodes look silly. He’s weakened his own finisher
@@jamiek9780I feel like it was already a weak finisher and people were rightly kicking out after 1, but rather than develop a better finisher, Cody doubled down and just spammed it until they stayed down.
Triple Threat Tag Team Matches. Only having 2 guys in the ring, but they have to avoid a certain corner so that the third team can't tag in is so stupid.
remember that fatal 4 way tag match when kofi tried to pin xavier so their team could win . everyone was praising for being smart i felt it was so dumb and made everyone else stupid for not doing the same
@@te4500 Wait! Didn't the New Age Outlaws(or someone) do that in the Attitude Era though?! Kofi and Xavier were just ripping off their schtick, which was likely ripped off from someone else!
The same dumbass rule applies with fatal four way tag team matches and the weird part is it's not like that in 2K (at least not the last time I played)
When... I think it was Mustafa Ali was about to win the MitB briefcase. He was right at the top of the ladder about to pull the briefcase off. Brock Lesnar's music hits and he just stops what he's doing and waited for Brock Lesnar to run to the ring just to knock him off the ladder.
@@ultraomenmurat9937 He’s saying that Mustafa Ali could have just grabbed the briefcase but he had to wait there for like 20 seconds and wait for Brock to run into the ring and toss him off the ladder
When announcers call every single big guy deceptively fast and agile. If they say to about everyone, it means nothing when there really is an anomaly like Brock Lesnar.
My biggest issue is that fans will say the current product has no stars and that the past was better. People say that guys like Jey, Cody, Knight, Sami, Owens, or Dominic aren’t stars and that we used to have larger than life legends. They forget that there was a time when the fans said Cena can’t wrestle or cut a promo. They said Edge was small. They said Randy Orton was slow and boring. Yet today, all 3 of them are treated as wrestling royalty. We have never fully appreciated the stars we have when they’re in the midst of their run, we give them their flowers when they’re halfway out the door. We’re seeing it happen right now with The Miz and Jinder Mahal. Just now fans are getting on board with their respect after over a decade of bashing. We even see it with the different Era’s. So many people said that WWE was trash in the mid 2000s and wanted the attitude era back, and in the 2020’s there’s all this love for the ruthless aggression era when at the time people said it was just a weaker attitude era without the star power (Austin, rock, etc) Mark my words, in 15 years, we will be treating guys like Cody, Owens, Sami, or the Uso’s the same way we treat Cena, Edge, or Orton today. These guys in the main event in 2024 will be around in 2034 working with the next generation, getting their flowers far too late.
Nah but those guys still had star power also remember Cody is in the ruthless era not whatever era this is. I think wwe has produced its last superstar I don’t actually know if Roman makes the cut honestly I don’t think he will. But it’s what happens WWE is def way more of a niche then a mainstream product nowadays and that’s ok these people are stars to the people that watch em and wwe can only do so much with the talent who want to be wrestlers nowadays.
Also I’ve been watching for decades never really heard someone say ruthless was bad don’t confuse ruthless with PG that’s when I really started to notice all the complaints of the product being bad
This is so real. I grew up with Cena as the top babyface. I always loved him, but I remember the fandom being super divided on him, now he's universally regarded as one of the GOATs. I think some people just like to be contrarian. It happens with music too. People will talk about how "music was better 20 years ago" but then 20 years later, people will say the same thing. Some people just don't like change. And I agree, Cody, Owens, Sami, Rollins, etc. will definitely be looked at as some of the GOATs from the current era in the future.
cap, those guys you mentioned have no evolving path, they are too simple, and its not just about character, looks also play a huge role. Also Sami after the bloodline story became irrelevant again
@@Jani_99 yeah… it’s totally not like all the legends we have now started as midcard acts on the come up. Even the miz who has had awful booking and a crap gimmick, he’s finally getting his flowers in 2024 because he’s put in consistent work and the fans recognize it. All these guys, assuming they’ll be around for full length careers, they’re going to get their flowers too.
Mine is that anyone who faces Reigns now just goes in alone. Majority of his title defences have been interferences from the bloodline, so wouldn’t it be smart to take out Solo and Jimmy before the match or have someone out there in your corner to stop the interference ;)
Mine is that with more groups and factions, every match feels the same because Person A is winning, Person B’s manager distracts Person A, Person A loses, it happens way too often nowadays
Also, the fact that in a heel faction like The Judgement Day you always know who will take the pin like 80% of the times. Before it used to be Dom, but now he’s been promoted and JD takes the pins
The piped in noise is definitely annoying, I went to Main Event and was kinda shocked by how obvious it was. You can get away with it in a big arena that's already loud, but when you're in an arena that only seats 5,000 people it's like ok you aren't fooling anyone.
I totally disagree with the steel cage take. The escape of the cage is what makes the match exciting, especially when someone is on the brink of escape and someone gets thrown back into the ring. So many classic moments and memories Edge vs Matt Hardy was unbelievable. If you wanna watch a match where the match ends in pinfall or submission inside a cage then thats why WWE created hell in a cell
People don't understand the point of cage matches anymore. The idea was that you beat your opponent so badly, that you humiliated them by being able to just walk out. It was a statement. 'I beat you so badly you couldn't stop me climbing a cage'
The Problem is that with steel cage matches, BOTH scenarios happen, escaping the cage AND someone wins by pinfall or submission, so there isn't much uniqueness to the cage matches.
Recently the thing that gets me the most is there will be a NORMAL MATCH going on..not a no dq match, and the ref will just watch the wrestler hit their opponent with a weapon with the ref just STARING AT THEM AND NOT GET DQ’d
Not really a pro wrestling thing mostly about the fans but when ever someone wins a title and people ask when are they losing it, I remember when Kofi won the wwe title and like a week or two went by and I saw a lot of people saying when he'll lose it, I was thinking give him a chance wait for his run to be a bit longer.
Have not heard this one in a while, but the "You can't wrestle" chants when the person being targeted obviously can, they are just not liked. Before the turn around on opinion for John Cena, he used to get this all the time.
@@weirdshitcoolideasWell even if he did, the way he was booked would still bring him hate so good for him that he played it safe and avoided injuries, after all he was carrying the WWE on his shoulders for the better part of a decade.
For me, it's not necessarily the long title reigns that I hate, but it's when they built a champion up to the point where they seem unbeatable. Even if the challenger is a major underdog, at least show that the champion can be somewhat vulnerable, and especially show that the challenger has some real grit to them.
The biggest one for me is the constant deafening boos when Dominick Mysterio tries to cut a promo, it was especially apparent with the awesome truth promo recently, it was a fun bit for a few weeks but it has gone on for way too long
I agree. It makes it really hard for Dom to get better on the Mic if he isn't able to cut any promos without deafening boos. I think people singing Seth's theme during promos is also a pet peeve of mine. Let. Them. Speak. I want to hear what they have to say
I agree, he’s never going to improve on the mic if he’s not given the chance to talk. They may have handcuffed him here because now fans want it to be a “thing”
@@queenautumnween2796 The thing is with Dom is most of his backstage segments and skits such as him getting arrested at the Mysterio home, I actually really enjoy! He can be super entertaining and can be even better than he is now, but he isnt gonna get to that point if he keeps getting boo'd for "heel heat"
@@jamiek9780 fans will continue to do this bit for YEARS. Fans will not let up on a bit. Unless they decide to turn him face again, which would completely ruin him, I don't see this ending anytime soon, which will start to ruin his development of his promo skills. I think he needs a little more time in NXT, not because he isn't ready, he's been great on the main roster, but to help him grow on the Mic. At least in NXT, he can actually speak. I think his time with the north American title was great and really helped him in his career
Mine is when a guy gets clotheslined to send them over the rope but they botch it and instead of improvising or doing it again the guy just hops out the ring himself like he got pushed over by wind
For me the most annoying thing of wrestling is the lack of competence between brands, why have 2 brands “competing” against each other but they never deliver the concept
I agree but I think there’s too much movement for it too feel not forced. When I think of 2000s I think DX as mainstays on raw, undertaker mysterio on smackdown… when I think now I couldn’t tell you who’s on what brand definitely
Why would you want that when nothing happens to the losing or winning brands? Survivor Series 2016-2021 had brand warfare and literally no consequences or rewards followed.
Mine would be the "Can they coexist?" trope. Sure it's not used as often anymore but it was still annoying, seeing supposed enemies tagging for a match
My main pet peeve is when wrestlers have moves in their arsenal for no reason. And they don’t even perform them right or fit their character. There’s so many good moves wrestlers don’t use anymore. Everybody does suicide dives like they’re highfliers. You’ve got brawlers that can’t even do a worked punch. There are way less technicians than there used to be. Wrestlers prioritize “spots” more than they do storytelling during a match. I wish the matches still had the in match story telling that the ruthless aggression era had💯. Wrestlers don’t know in ring psychology like they used to. One bad facial expression or movement can ruin a part of a match. There’s so many young bucks. Not enough Randy’s , chad gables, or Mr perfects.
One of mine is when there is a brawl and security breaks it up when the face is getting the advantage but when the heel gets the advantage they do pretty much nothing. It’s especially annoying when they stop the face from beating the heel up giving the heel a chance to get the upper hand
-The most annoying thing for me is how wwe would have someone make an entrance -have an unrelated recap once they get into the ring -Go to commercials - do another unrealated recap -followed by a small backstage promo -then come back to the person who made an enterance 10 minutes ago then cut the match in half by going to commercial when the whole match could have been aired without a commercial
My pet peeve of THIS video is there were no TH-cam comments at all.. only from twitter. And quite a few of those twitter comments had no likes or whatever on them. The YT comments left on your community post had some damn good per peeves.
Yeah, and if they'd have actually watched any of his matches in AEW they would that he BARELY has the ability to go anymore! Maybe he gained some stamina after a bit, I wouldn't know because I quit giving a shit about him when he started bitching about fans without masks trying to approach him AFTER he had DOVE into a Chicago crowd, most of which were NOT wearing masks either, TWICE, and then blocked a guy on twitter for pointing it out! I am so pissed off at myself for getting caught up in the hype when he returned to wrestling! He's just a whiney bitch that needs to go away!
My biggest pet peeve has got to be the champions continually keeping the title because it's protected by their stable, ie: the bloodline, damage ctrl, and the judgment day... a stable save once in a while is fine but constantly is old and lazy booking in my opinion
I think Samantha has given us enough content to know that she wouldn’t mess up wrestlers announcements. Gotta give her some credit, she knows how to match tones to the superstars.
My wrestling pet peeve is wrestling rules applies for some not others for example title holders must defend titles every 30 days while champions like Roman don’t defend title every months on end
Not my biggest pet peeve but just wanted to let you know you have helped me and you still are with my life whilst a lot of bad stuff has been going on and now after a year of crap thrown at me I’m officially going to my first pro wrestling training and I couldn’t be happier Thank you Santi
I know bills gotta be paid so I don’t mind it, I just wish it wasn’t always suicide dive , face celebrates, commercial, comes back to heel has them in a headlock
Mine is when a really long title reign, like Roman’s barely has any matches. The opposite thing happened with CM punk which is why it his title reign so legendary
The problem with Steel cages ending in pinfalls is the fact the "no escape" thing is what Hell in a Cell is for. Steel cages are different by allowing escape as a win condition
Mine is when people cutting a promo announce someone as a mystery tag partner or whatever and don’t let the music introduce them. Especially for returns. Don’t TELL me they’re back so I start popping early, let the music hit. If it’s new music let the surprise pop the crowd. The only reason I think they do it is if it’s someone they’re worried about the pop for
My biggest pet peeve in wrestling is when you know the champion is going to win the match. I think this is from the long title reins of the champion. I do think this year will be different though bc they really focused on this in 2023. For example Bianca and Gunter. So hopefully this year we will get less predictable matches!
Royal Rumble matches having little to no surprise entrants due to all the Superstars declaring for the match, goes hand in hand with the fact there's not many Royal Rumble qualifying matches too
The 2016 Dean Ambrose cash in will always be the Best cash in Sell. The stare down between Mike Chioda and Ambrose is impressive like it was a serious business and Chioda confirming the cash in just 1 call.
Wrestlers dissappear in royal rumble matches for huge amount of time , laying down on the ground for like 20 minutes, just to pop up when a certain wrestler enters the ring.
When they make the heels say stuff so they would get booed even in their hometown like them getting cheered once a year isnt gonna hurt and its cool for the crowd to cheer a heel
Mine is when they have a person or team lose at a ple and then proceed to push them the next week on raw or smackdown as some sort of powerful force. A recent example is damage ctrl losing at wargames and then on smackdown the next week they have a segment where they are seeking gold and are becoming the most dominant woman's faction ever. That would have been great if they just won wargames the week prior.
Mine is, when the ref sometimes have leeway on the rules as the match progresses. Sometimes he/she will stop counting or allow a wrestler to get hit by an object when the match clearly was a regular match. I’m talking about you Cody Rhodes vs Brock Lesnar
My biggest pro wrestling pet peeve is when the opponent just magically happens to fall into position for the wrestler's finisher. Example: Rey Mysterio and the 619
This will always piss me off: triple threat and fatal four tag team matches where only two wrestlers are allowed at one time. Why does another team have to wait in the corner and why would anyone want to tag someone else other than their teammate?
My biggest pet peeve is that titles never change on regular programming. I’m not saying that the title should be changed on regular TV all the time, but it takes all the suspense out of matches when they only change hands on pay-per-view. Just look at the attitude era. Titles changed hands quite often on regular TV and it was the best era in the history of wrestling.
I've always wondered how pro wrestling referees function in day to day life?!? I mean, a stiff wind could be very dangerous to someone who's THAT delicate, right!?!
Here’s one I can’t believe people never mention. When one wrestler throws another guy into the ropes, the wrestler will often bend down at the waist and stand still, while the other guy bounces off the ropes and kicks him in the face. It makes zero sense and it happens all the time
Mine is probably announcing you’re going to be in royal rumble. I think that whole match should be a suprise I think that makes it more enjoyable and better to watch
EXACTLY, I feel like sometimes they expect the fans to pop for these announcements but I honestly don’t care. Like yeah, Cody I’d hope your ass is in the rumble because what the fuck else would you be doing next month?
my biggest wrestling pet peeve is when there's any match with more than 2 wrestlers (like the royal rumble, mitb match, tag team match, triple threat, fatal 4-5 way) and everyone starts laying down after 5 minutes and it basically becomes a 1 on 1 match until someone gets up and the cycle repeats that way for the length of the match
@@pleaseshutup7053 no that hell in a cell. A steel cage means it’s going to be brutal with “no” interference. Look at Batista v Undertaker, they hit the floor at the sane time in 2007, fucking awesome
@@tmac731 lmao hell in a cell is a steel cage surrounding the full ring steel cage matches never had escape until Vince started doing it. that was lame. What was awesome was mark henry pulling the door off attacking Batista.
@@tmac731 Bret vs owen summerslam watch any steel cage match before that match steel cages were feud Enders win by pinfall or submission. Bret was super creative so he didn’t want to have a violent brutal cage match with his brother they put on a technical classic. Everyone wants to copy Bret so they kept doing it.
Mine are tag matches where the baby faces take forever to make a tag after hitting a move to drop their opponent and both the baby face and heel tag at the same time.
The crazy beef part isn’t really a big deal, on the condition it’s not legitimate beef. In Sheamus’ and Castagnoli fka Cesaro’s case, they had a good story going with the best of seven series and only to be ruined just for us fans to forget they were feuding, I agree with that bit; the only silver lining is that The Bar became one of the greatest tag teams of the modern era. What’s commendable is that Cody Rhodes and Seth “Freakin” Rollins despite their legitimate dislike towards one another are still able to keep it professional even in storyline. When they gotta tag, they’ll tag. Storyline wise, the steel cage match where someone escapes the cage through adversity makes it intriguing. All depends on how it’s executed.
Don't know if they still do this, but the varying level of damage a spine buster does in segments. I've seen dudes lay down for like 3 min from a spine buster before
My pet peeves are 1. When a Royal Rumble winner doesn’t main event WM. 2. When they take forever to climb a ladder in ladder matches, whist continuously looking around for someone to stop them. 3. When someone wins a KOTR tournament, for them to automatically have their name change to King *their name* remember King Stone cold? Me neither. 4. Legends coming back, cutting a promo saying they are back “home” only to be never seen again for months-years *cough, the rock cough* 5. When they throw a faction together based on their skin colour (hurt business, nation of domination, new day and the pride) 6. Booing the 30th RR entrant because it’s not a returning/suprise entrant. 7. Unifying titles only to split them in a couple years, to unify them again later down the line. 8. Not enough shock heel/face turns (you can predict them weeks/months in advance now)
MY biggest pet peeve is when wrestlers just stand there waiting for their opponent to catch them while they are delivering a suicide dive or moonsalt to the outside
I absolutely hate in royal rumble matches, when a wrestler is trying to eliminate some but a different wrestler goes and starts attacking the person trying to eliminate someone else. Like why are you stopping an elimination that will help YOUR odds to win the match???
When a match is really bad, we can all see the crowd and ourselves just hating it. But somehow you still hear chants and noise from the crowd filled with excitement.
Here's mine and the reason why I stopped watching: Spanish announcers. Watching the shows on the cable provider don't allow to change the language, and I got stuck with the Spanish announcers, they got to a point where it became ridiculous, they were talking about anything but the matches, and when they talked about matches, one of them gave spoilers so he could pretend he's some kind of psychic. I can't remember actual spoilers they gave, but here's an example of how they did them: -Here it comes the returning world champion -Oh it's Jinder Mahal -Could you imagine if this is just a swerve and the Rock comes back, then beats up Jinder and then challenges Roman Reigns? *Proceeds to happen -HAHA, I TOLD YOU, I TOLD YOU, I'M ALWAYS RIGHT.
Sometimes, the champion coming out first in a title match works out well too. Like it did in the roman reigns vs sami zayn match at elimination chamber 2023. So, it isn't always bad.

My biggest pet peeve is how they can break up some fights but not others. So they couldn’t stop Kofi getting attacked by Ludwig but they stopped Cody and Nakumara
Care more bout main event guys
Its a way to hype up a feud. If the security gets involved in stopping the attack then it makes the feud feel more serious, at least that's the hope.
It’s especially egregious when it’s a guy getting completely decimated by someone or a whole group of people and nobody comes out
Don’t want main eventers getting hurt

I totally disagree with the steel cage take.
The escape of the cage is what makes the match exciting, especially when someone is on the brink of escape and someone gets thrown back into the ring. So many classic moments and memories
Edge vs Matt Hardy was unbelievable.
If you wanna watch a match where the match ends in pinfall or submission inside a cage then thats why WWE created hell in a cell
Bro why would i take 1 minute to escape while i can win in 3 second
No, it IS crappy! I HATE when someone wins because they got thrown like a bitch into the cage and it broke!
People don't understand the point of cage matches anymore. The idea was that you beat your opponent so badly, that you humiliated them by being able to just walk out. It was a statement. 'I beat you so badly you couldn't stop me climbing a cage'
The Problem is that with steel cage matches, BOTH scenarios happen, escaping the cage AND someone wins by pinfall or submission, so there isn't much uniqueness to the cage matches.
I agree with you. It should be the other way round, pinfall or submission should never happen. Should be win by escape only
I hate how the ref doesn’t count to 10 when both men are down. Watching them get to their feet with no suspense drags the match
mine is probably when falls count anywhere matches end IN the ring... literally defeats the entire purpose of the match

Recently the thing that gets me the most is there will be a NORMAL MATCH going on..not a no dq match, and the ref will just watch the wrestler hit their opponent with a weapon with the ref just STARING AT THEM AND NOT GET DQ’d
The tapping out take feels more relevant today as wrestlers would rather pass out than tap
Mine is fans chanting “WHAT?”
Me too it’s annoying
What?
It do be annoying
WHAT?
Facts, it was funny before but now it just annoys me now
My biggest pet peeve is when referees take one thousand years to get up after a slight little bump
Not really a pro wrestling thing mostly about the fans but when ever someone wins a title and people ask when are they losing it, I remember when Kofi won the wwe title and like a week or two went by and I saw a lot of people saying when he'll lose it, I was thinking give him a chance wait for his run to be a bit longer.
Mine is when superstars take 10 years to make a tag by crawling knowing they can just stand up to tag their tag partner
I agree with the submission take because Daniel Bryan had to change his finisher at SummerSlam because John Cena wasn't going to tap out.
I hate cena for that
Have not heard this one in a while, but the "You can't wrestle" chants when the person being targeted obviously can, they are just not liked. Before the turn around on opinion for John Cena, he used to get this all the time.
YUP! Remember when people said he couldn’t cut a promo but nowadays he’s considered one of the best on the mic.
I mean that was because Cena wouldn’t open his move set and played it safe. I do agree with you but there was backstory
@@jamiek9780couldn't cut a promo? John Cena he had some cheesy promos but everyone knew he could definitely talk
@@weirdshitcoolideasWell even if he did, the way he was booked would still bring him hate so good for him that he played it safe and avoided injuries, after all he was carrying the WWE on his shoulders for the better part of a decade.
Cena worked really hard on his move sets in 2010s but he has always been stiff in the ring, he was never the smoothest or effortless.
For me, it's not necessarily the long title reigns that I hate, but it's when they built a champion up to the point where they seem unbeatable. Even if the challenger is a major underdog, at least show that the champion can be somewhat vulnerable, and especially show that the challenger has some real grit to them.
The biggest one for me is the constant deafening boos when Dominick Mysterio tries to cut a promo, it was especially apparent with the awesome truth promo recently, it was a fun bit for a few weeks but it has gone on for way too long
I agree. It makes it really hard for Dom to get better on the Mic if he isn't able to cut any promos without deafening boos. I think people singing Seth's theme during promos is also a pet peeve of mine. Let. Them. Speak. I want to hear what they have to say
I agree, he’s never going to improve on the mic if he’s not given the chance to talk. They may have handcuffed him here because now fans want it to be a “thing”
@@queenautumnween2796 The thing is with Dom is most of his backstage segments and skits such as him getting arrested at the Mysterio home, I actually really enjoy! He can be super entertaining and can be even better than he is now, but he isnt gonna get to that point if he keeps getting boo'd for "heel heat"
@@jamiek9780 fans will continue to do this bit for YEARS. Fans will not let up on a bit. Unless they decide to turn him face again, which would completely ruin him, I don't see this ending anytime soon, which will start to ruin his development of his promo skills. I think he needs a little more time in NXT, not because he isn't ready, he's been great on the main roster, but to help him grow on the Mic. At least in NXT, he can actually speak. I think his time with the north American title was great and really helped him in his career
Dom is getting force boos it's cringe too me crowd becoming NPC day by day
I got one when a wrestlers theme song hits during a match everyone just stops what their doing. 😂
They can fix that by having both wrestlers down when the music hits
Carmella’s cash in comes to mind 😂 Mike Chioda took ages to confirm with her
It is soo annoying when they cut to a commercial break when a match is really cooking. It makes me lose interest.
Mine is when a guy gets clotheslined to send them over the rope but they botch it and instead of improvising or doing it again the guy just hops out the ring himself like he got pushed over by wind
For me the most annoying thing of wrestling is the lack of competence between brands, why have 2 brands “competing” against each other but they never deliver the concept
I say to troll those that notice maybe..go TH-cam - are you a good person by living waters
I agree but I think there’s too much movement for it too feel not forced. When I think of 2000s I think DX as mainstays on raw, undertaker mysterio on smackdown… when I think now I couldn’t tell you who’s on what brand definitely
@@Jpthaprince Rollins is def a RAW guy
Because the target audience of wwe is those who don’t think too much
Why would you want that when nothing happens to the losing or winning brands? Survivor Series 2016-2021 had brand warfare and literally no consequences or rewards followed.
Mine would be the "Can they coexist?" trope. Sure it's not used as often anymore but it was still annoying, seeing supposed enemies tagging for a match
My main pet peeve is when wrestlers have moves in their arsenal for no reason. And they don’t even perform them right or fit their character. There’s so many good moves wrestlers don’t use anymore. Everybody does suicide dives like they’re highfliers. You’ve got brawlers that can’t even do a worked punch. There are way less technicians than there used to be. Wrestlers prioritize “spots” more than they do storytelling during a match. I wish the matches still had the in match story telling that the ruthless aggression era had💯. Wrestlers don’t know in ring psychology like they used to. One bad facial expression or movement can ruin a part of a match. There’s so many young bucks. Not enough Randy’s , chad gables, or Mr perfects.
One of mine is when there is a brawl and security breaks it up when the face is getting the advantage but when the heel gets the advantage they do pretty much nothing. It’s especially annoying when they stop the face from beating the heel up giving the heel a chance to get the upper hand
-The most annoying thing for me is how wwe would have someone make an entrance
-have an unrelated recap once they get into the ring
-Go to commercials
- do another unrealated recap
-followed by a small backstage promo
-then come back to the person who made an enterance 10 minutes ago then cut the match in half by going to commercial when the whole match could have been aired without a commercial
Mine is when a match builds to a logical finish that makes sense. Then goes on for another 5 minutes to end on a flat finish. i.e. a small package.
My pet peeve of THIS video is there were no TH-cam comments at all.. only from twitter. And quite a few of those twitter comments had no likes or whatever on them.
The YT comments left on your community post had some damn good per peeves.
I agree
HOOOOO
Loved this video type. Definitely need more of these type of videos, they are my favorite!
They did "you still got it" for Punk at MSG
Like guys...All In was only 4 months ago
Yeah, and if they'd have actually watched any of his matches in AEW they would that he BARELY has the ability to go anymore! Maybe he gained some stamina after a bit, I wouldn't know because I quit giving a shit about him when he started bitching about fans without masks trying to approach him AFTER he had DOVE into a Chicago crowd, most of which were NOT wearing masks either, TWICE, and then blocked a guy on twitter for pointing it out!
I am so pissed off at myself for getting caught up in the hype when he returned to wrestling! He's just a whiney bitch that needs to go away!
Clearly those fans are more casual
The worst part is that he don't got it anymore
Mine is the fact that triple threat or larger matches are no DQ by default. Especially because that stipulation is rarely used.
My biggest pet peeve has got to be the champions continually keeping the title because it's protected by their stable, ie: the bloodline, damage ctrl, and the judgment day... a stable save once in a while is fine but constantly is old and lazy booking in my opinion
But thats the entire point of having a stable. If you have a bunch of allies, why wouldn't they help you?
Super mf lazy
Is that the point of being part of a team? For extra security
I think that the “ref gets knocked out” thing is used only to cheaply extend matches and gets used way too much
Back in the Attitude Era, sure, nowadays I don't see it often outside of Roman's matches.
I think Samantha has given us enough content to know that she wouldn’t mess up wrestlers announcements. Gotta give her some credit, she knows how to match tones to the superstars.
Plus the Chelsea Green chant is because thats her personality. Of course if its Roman Reigns she will say his name with his personality and etc.
Plus, I’m sure she wouldn’t make any drastic changes without consulting with the superstars first
My wrestling pet peeve is wrestling rules applies for some not others for example title holders must defend titles every 30 days while champions like Roman don’t defend title every months on end
Lol that title rule hasn’t existed for decades
Not my biggest pet peeve but just wanted to let you know you have helped me and you still are with my life whilst a lot of bad stuff has been going on and now after a year of crap thrown at me I’m officially going to my first pro wrestling training and I couldn’t be happier
Thank you Santi
Hope you smash it! Good luck to you
@@heateddragon7912 thanks bro
For the one talking about commercials during main events I like how AEW does it bc they have to show commercials but you can still see the match
There's been times where WWE does that aswell
I know bills gotta be paid so I don’t mind it, I just wish it wasn’t always suicide dive , face celebrates, commercial, comes back to heel has them in a headlock
My biggest gripe is when Wrestlers attempt something in a manner that only makes sense if the opponent reversing it.
Mine is when a really long title reign, like Roman’s barely has any matches. The opposite thing happened with CM punk which is why it his title reign so legendary
The problem with Steel cages ending in pinfalls is the fact the "no escape" thing is what Hell in a Cell is for. Steel cages are different by allowing escape as a win condition
Mine is when people cutting a promo announce someone as a mystery tag partner or whatever and don’t let the music introduce them. Especially for returns. Don’t TELL me they’re back so I start popping early, let the music hit. If it’s new music let the surprise pop the crowd. The only reason I think they do it is if it’s someone they’re worried about the pop for
My biggest pet peeve is when a match turns into a “beat up this specific body part for 15mins”
Streak vs Career lol
An annoying thing is WWE announcing “EVERY SINGLE” participant in the royal rumble matches, you can announce 5,10 but not 27
They do this to lower your hype for return to not make you disappointed at the event.
How is hyping the he rumble annoying
@@pleaseshutup7053 You don't need to announce more than a few guys to hype it up! Surprises are nice too!
My biggest pet peeve in wrestling is when you know the champion is going to win the match. I think this is from the long title reins of the champion. I do think this year will be different though bc they really focused on this in 2023. For example Bianca and Gunter. So hopefully this year we will get less predictable matches!
The outcomes are usually predictable, it’s how they win that is harder to predict
Been binge listening to your videos while I was at work today, great videos
Royal Rumble matches having little to no surprise entrants due to all the Superstars declaring for the match, goes hand in hand with the fact there's not many Royal Rumble qualifying matches too
The 2016 Dean Ambrose cash in will always be the Best cash in Sell. The stare down between Mike Chioda and Ambrose is impressive like it was a serious business and Chioda confirming the cash in just 1 call.
The Carmella cash in angers me to this day
Wrestlers dissappear in royal rumble matches for huge amount of time , laying down on the ground for like 20 minutes, just to pop up when a certain wrestler enters the ring.
When they make the heels say stuff so they would get booed even in their hometown like them getting cheered once a year isnt gonna hurt and its cool for the crowd to cheer a heel
Mine is when they have a person or team lose at a ple and then proceed to push them the next week on raw or smackdown as some sort of powerful force. A recent example is damage ctrl losing at wargames and then on smackdown the next week they have a segment where they are seeking gold and are becoming the most dominant woman's faction ever. That would have been great if they just won wargames the week prior.
yeah ive notice that too heels win the week to week and faces win the PLE..
Here’s mine: when a wrestler is in a tag match barely got hurt and crawl so slow for a tag💀
Mine is, when the ref sometimes have leeway on the rules as the match progresses. Sometimes he/she will stop counting or allow a wrestler to get hit by an object when the match clearly was a regular match. I’m talking about you Cody Rhodes vs Brock Lesnar
Royal Rumble time when it’s so hard to toss people over the top rope only once a year.
That Amazon take aged like fine wine with the Netflix deal being announced👀
Mine is when a superstar finally gets his or her push then they get barried the next month or two
Kofi Kingston 😢
The Vince McMahon special booking
I hate how titles never change hands in title matches in general shows, it just makes the match outcome predictable
My biggest pro wrestling pet peeve is when the opponent just magically happens to fall into position for the wrestler's finisher.
Example: Rey Mysterio and the 619
I agree! Every time somebody is facing Rey Mysterio they suddenly decide to rest on the bottom rope
Like can't you get up man 😭@@webmaster-brawlstars5422
That “are you sure” instead of just telling the time keeper to ring the bell
"ArE yOu SuRe?" and they make this face: 😧
This will always piss me off: triple threat and fatal four tag team matches where only two wrestlers are allowed at one time. Why does another team have to wait in the corner and why would anyone want to tag someone else other than their teammate?
I hate when a submission puts someone to sleep that wouldn't put you to sleep🤣
When the commentator says it’s over after a finisher like obviously after hearing them say that the match won’t be over
Wrong
My biggest pet peeve is that titles never change on regular programming. I’m not saying that the title should be changed on regular TV all the time, but it takes all the suspense out of matches when they only change hands on pay-per-view. Just look at the attitude era. Titles changed hands quite often on regular TV and it was the best era in the history of wrestling.
I've always wondered how pro wrestling referees function in day to day life?!? I mean, a stiff wind could be very dangerous to someone who's THAT delicate, right!?!
Here’s one I can’t believe people never mention. When one wrestler throws another guy into the ropes, the wrestler will often bend down at the waist and stand still, while the other guy bounces off the ropes and kicks him in the face. It makes zero sense and it happens
all the time
Yeah the Irish whip move really never made sense. If someone threw me into the turnbuckle, I’d just stop moving. That’s it.
Mine is probably announcing you’re going to be in royal rumble. I think that whole match should be a suprise I think that makes it more enjoyable and better to watch
EXACTLY, I feel like sometimes they expect the fans to pop for these announcements but I honestly don’t care. Like yeah, Cody I’d hope your ass is in the rumble because what the fuck else would you be doing next month?
That called build so people aren’t aloud to that about wanting to win the rumble beside it’s rare we know the order
Yeah and when wrestlers are like, “you’re not gonna win cause I am” like most likely neither of you are
my biggest wrestling pet peeve is when there's any match with more than 2 wrestlers (like the royal rumble, mitb match, tag team match, triple threat, fatal 4-5 way) and everyone starts laying down after 5 minutes and it basically becomes a 1 on 1 match until someone gets up and the cycle repeats that way for the length of the match
Why can you win a steel cage match by walking out the door? With a team of refs on standby to even open it for you.
I’m in the minority but I never like pin falls in steel cage matches. It’s more suspenseful to escape the cage I rather have it be no pinfalls
Lol you are in the super minority because the point of the cage is that there is no escape
@@pleaseshutup7053 no that hell in a cell. A steel cage means it’s going to be brutal with “no” interference. Look at Batista v Undertaker, they hit the floor at the sane time in 2007, fucking awesome
@@tmac731 lmao hell in a cell is a steel cage surrounding the full ring steel cage matches never had escape until Vince started doing it. that was lame. What was awesome was mark henry pulling the door off attacking Batista.
@@pleaseshutup7053 when did Vince change steel cage matches?
the first ever hell in a cell was created so HBK had no where to go v Undertaker.
@@tmac731 Bret vs owen summerslam watch any steel cage match before that match steel cages were feud Enders win by pinfall or submission. Bret was super creative so he didn’t want to have a violent brutal cage match with his brother they put on a technical classic. Everyone wants to copy Bret so they kept doing it.
Mine are tag matches where the baby faces take forever to make a tag after hitting a move to drop their opponent and both the baby face and heel tag at the same time.
Mine is that rhea ripley can interfere wheneve she wants and she thinks shes a male but nobody ever attacks her and does anything about it 😭
My biggest wrestling grievance is when a non wrestling fan says that wrestling is fake. Like who cares?!
The crazy beef part isn’t really a big deal, on the condition it’s not legitimate beef. In Sheamus’ and Castagnoli fka Cesaro’s case, they had a good story going with the best of seven series and only to be ruined just for us fans to forget they were feuding, I agree with that bit; the only silver lining is that The Bar became one of the greatest tag teams of the modern era. What’s commendable is that Cody Rhodes and Seth “Freakin” Rollins despite their legitimate dislike towards one another are still able to keep it professional even in storyline. When they gotta tag, they’ll tag.
Storyline wise, the steel cage match where someone escapes the cage through adversity makes it intriguing. All depends on how it’s executed.
Don't know if they still do this, but the varying level of damage a spine buster does in segments. I've seen dudes lay down for like 3 min from a spine buster before
The worst thing is when someone interrupts in a match that your fav person is winning and costs him to lose the match 🤬😭😡
Mine is the money in the bank briefcase, definitely lost its touch
I’m convinced that the referee that Carmella used to cash in wasn’t a referee bc he was so stupid 😭
My pet peeves are
1. When a Royal Rumble winner doesn’t main event WM.
2. When they take forever to climb a ladder in ladder matches, whist continuously looking around for someone to stop them.
3. When someone wins a KOTR tournament, for them to automatically have their name change to King *their name* remember King Stone cold? Me neither.
4. Legends coming back, cutting a promo saying they are back “home” only to be never seen again for months-years *cough, the rock cough*
5. When they throw a faction together based on their skin colour (hurt business, nation of domination, new day and the pride)
6. Booing the 30th RR entrant because it’s not a returning/suprise entrant.
7. Unifying titles only to split them in a couple years, to unify them again later down the line.
8. Not enough shock heel/face turns (you can predict them weeks/months in advance now)
MY biggest pet peeve is when wrestlers just stand there waiting for their opponent to catch them while they are delivering a suicide dive or moonsalt to the outside
Special guest refs have the same health bar as the regular refs lol
the fact that people only really recognise green shirt guy when trinidad flag guy is my pookie bear i love him
I absolutely hate in royal rumble matches, when a wrestler is trying to eliminate some but a different wrestler goes and starts attacking the person trying to eliminate someone else. Like why are you stopping an elimination that will help YOUR odds to win the match???
When a match is really bad, we can all see the crowd and ourselves just hating it. But somehow you still hear chants and noise from the crowd filled with excitement.
Piped in audio.
Here's mine and the reason why I stopped watching:
Spanish announcers.
Watching the shows on the cable provider don't allow to change the language, and I got stuck with the Spanish announcers, they got to a point where it became ridiculous, they were talking about anything but the matches, and when they talked about matches, one of them gave spoilers so he could pretend he's some kind of psychic.
I can't remember actual spoilers they gave, but here's an example of how they did them:
-Here it comes the returning world champion
-Oh it's Jinder Mahal
-Could you imagine if this is just a swerve and the Rock comes back, then beats up Jinder and then challenges Roman Reigns?
*Proceeds to happen
-HAHA, I TOLD YOU, I TOLD YOU, I'M ALWAYS RIGHT.
Mine is tag team matches when they crawl slowly to a tag or when someone slowly climbs a ladder
Tbf, it's in every tag match and it's actual tradition at this point 😂
Sometimes, the champion coming out first in a title match works out well too. Like it did in the roman reigns vs sami zayn match at elimination chamber 2023. So, it isn't always bad.
“Amazon Takes It Over” - Netflix: We Can’t Let This Happen 💀
Wrestling security. They are literally the most fodder looking dudes trying to stop two 6’7 masses of meat from fighting,it’s hilarious.
When someone’s trying to eliminate someone in the rumble and someone else’s stops them and they aren’t even friends with the person being eliminated
