Disclaimer: Before the anti-wrestling patrol makes their "heel" presence known, let me start by saying that, yes, I know wrestling isn't real and yes, I am a grown ass adult still watching it but you know what? I don't care. So please, save yourself from wasting our time and do not post if you do not have anything nice to say.

That said, who watched this last night? I recorded it last night and thought it was a well produced show with lots of intrigue. It was awesome listening to good ole JR and Tony Schiavonne (sp?) Back at the booth once again. I also think it is great that TNT has wrestling once again but thankfully Ted Turner isn't running the show .

 

Whatcha think?

Loved AEW. Felt different, felt real. 
 

im done with WWE. I’ll not watch NXT. Knowing NXT guys are trying to make it up and what happens to them on main ruined WWE for me. After seeing what happened with Asuka, I quit wwe. Best woman wrestler on the product and they have completely mishandled her.

Week 2 almost in the books and so far I feel as if AEW has won. Monday Night Raw was horrible and I felt like it was just filler until tonight when WWE starts the "Draft." NXT was pretty good though, I will give them that.

Also, I do not understand why they are having a draft because they had a superstar shakeup back in spring but didn't stick with with and decided to just let any superstar jump on any brand. If they actually plan on staying true to the brand split and if they actually utilize their talent the correct way, I might actually enjoy WWE.

It is still early in the "war" but AEW, I feel has a leg up.... Let's just see if they can still be fresh.

I've been watching, as Omega is my personal favorite. I really like the show. It's not perfect, but it's what's needed. Better than NXT due to production vakues (having it at Full Sail just doesn't work), but a bit "too WCW" in terms of production if that makes any sense. Still though, makes me excited to watch a wrestling show since the 3 AM days of Philly era ECW. Love NJPW as well, but something is off about it and I can't put my finger on it.

      Well that's part of where the disconnect is then, you think Chark was a "solid NFL player" I couldn't disagree more, he's someone who had one solid NFL season and then was at best a JAG the rest of his career, I wouldn't call that a "solid NFL player" If he was a #3 WR and put up the stats he did outside of that 1 season, then sure, he's a "solid NFL player" but he put up those numbers as the #1 WR in 3 of his 4 seasons that he had meaningful roles and the #2 in a high powered offense the 4th.   That's not good and not what I'd call a "solid NFL player"

      Everything always makes sense in hindsight. Hell, I've seen guys who were touted by everyone as slam dunk "safest player in the draft" type prospects bust massively. Remember Aaron Curry? Robert Gallery? I'm just never going to say that a prospect is definitely a better NFL player than a solid NFL player. Better as a prospect? Sure, you can always make those arguments. But ultimately it comes down to what you do on Sundays and what you did on Saturdays just isn't relevant when you're talking about who's the better NFL player.

      And that's totally fair to say, but I think it also shows you guys are conflating what I'm saying with thinking I'm saying something like, "T-Mac will 100% have a better NFL career than Chark had" which is a completely different statement and one I'd agree, you can't really say about any NFL player before they've ever taken a snap. Because what I'm saying, is that T-Mac's actual ability and skills right now, are at a higher level than Chark's ever were, it's a completely different statement that is independent of what his NFL output will be. Look at it this way, without even knowing what the rest of Chark's career turned out to be, would anyone seriously say they'd take Chark after the 2019 season over today's T-Mac if they somehow were in a draft and we were deciding between the two?  As even after that season, his potential was never what T-Mac's is right now. Even with those other prospects, I'm sure some of them before their NFL career started, still had more ability and physical talent than Chark had, because again, this is so much less about T-Mac and so much more about Chark.  A bad coach, system, QB, injuries, etc, that derail a WR's career no matter how good they may have been and is much more of the reason they were a bust than their own abilities.   Chark was a tall WR with little WR speed, he was a deep ball threat and wasn't even particularly great at it, he was not that good of an actual WR. If the Jags had another above average WR in 2019, then Chark doesn't get his 1k season that I think people are getting too hung up on in thinking he was some great player in this league.
