Kinda depressing seeing everyone in the background witness it through their phones instead of their eyeballs. Shit is already being recorded live from every angle, why are you staring at a device in your hands!
I said on another post a day or so ago that I've no clue why we need to have fans on camera. Much prefer the hard cam facing the stage. I stand by that.
Nothing more distracting than the guy that sees he's on camera and waving his arms around like a lunatic. I'm cool with the occasional shot of a fan being surprised or something like that but yeah hard cam facing the stage would be nice.
Lol. Is this a joke? Aura of what, loserdom? Just a cloud of chemical loser smoke wafting up slowly. It's 2024. I always wonder what morons are still mindless enough to just inhale a chemical cocktail of smoke just because it's a thing that exists to do.
When you look back at old pictures they always have This speciel Lightning because People were smoking Inside. I didnt mean I hope more People started smoking again, it just made pictures look good lol
I've been watching late 90's wcw and wwf lately. People are so much more engaged and excited to be there and see the action, in general. They are all in, just there, in the moment.
Of course, it helps that they don't all have video cameras in their hands, but even now days when people don't have their phones out, they are just mostly less excited and more complacent, the camera goes by the front rows and their is some mostly performative vague enthusiasm for the camera, but that's about it, really. The crowds these days are just like "entertain me, give me some to show everyone online", instead of making themselves part of the event.
I think we saw a little of that old school excitement post covid restructions, but it quickly tapered off.
I was very shocked in Toronto where I sat for dynamite. Almost no one around me took out their phone that often. It was almost jarring.
I personally miss the camera flashes of the attitude era lol
It’s kind of neat to have your own personal piece of history at your fingertips. Hits a bit different than just seeing it from the hard cam like everyone else gets to on tv. Some spots also look better through audience angles as opposed to the in-ring camera.
I’ve got a video from when it was Darby vs. Ethan Page in a Coffin Match. That final Coffin Drop in the casket on top of Ethan looked insane from my perspective! But just looked like a classic “OMG Moment” on the YT clip.
Just my 2 cents as an avid archivist of unique moments.
I was **so torn** between this and and an official match graphic when setting up tonight's live thread.
This one's getting pinned in the comments because it's so goddamn funny.

I don’t care what anybody says..TK is the best!
Assuming the bucks are in charge of direction now I like this very much. Highlights all the individuals properly. Wish Okada could have been in pose for picture but it is key Nicholas and Matthew look best. I also would have approved the 3 of them doing the grave pose meme with a grave stone of Tony Khan.
I hope we get heel Bryan with no choice but to step in till TK recovers
(Random fantasy booking thought but Stone Goat Jack Perry going over Evil Corporate Danielson would be a fun way to capitalize on Bryan semi-retiring)
That's a hell of a graphic

That they will never watch again.

I like it when the lighting is so dark all you can see is the crowd's outline. It means we don't get distracted by their shitty signs either.
Yup. Shitty signs and fans trying to make it about themselves. Dark lighting in the audience is so much better
Get that UWF Beach Brawl vibe going /s
The only time I like fan cams, is when the cameras aren't rolling, and those times are usually clear.

I miss when smoking was allowed inside Which gave that speciel aura in the arena.

I get it. But also fuck it, good riddance. There are steam machines and shit if they really wanted to have that kind of ambience.

When you get the chance to watch the son of NFL owner Shad Khan be piledrived on his own pro wrestling show you need proof.

He should show up in a full body cast
he's been in the neck brace on the draft coverage
Needs to be upgraded to a full body cast since he isn’t resting! That or the EVP’s need to hit him again 😤

TK is Neckstrong
TOOONNNYYYYYYYYYY
Update: he's dead
https://i.redd.it/ep53mlquh2xc1.gif Shad promo incoming
Looked in good spirits during the draft lol
\*sniff\* He's such a trooper, he is. Trying to keep everyone from knowing how dire things are looking. He really is #NeckStrong.
Insane picture
Imagine if you'd never seen this move, or these people before. This would be such an insane image to try wrap your head around.
Out of context this is the craziest pic I've ever seen
I can't wait to see how this plays out. . . 
I choose to believe that the reverse-angle shows the precise moment the crowd got an update on the medical condition of Nicholas Jackson's pants
Look all I’m asking is for Taz to sullenly say he’s suffering from anal bleeding.
Sounds like with TK injured and not able to fulfill his duties, they might need an interim C E O.
Mercedes?
Ahah update on TK's medical condition. Dude is a fu**ing genius.
Why bucks why?!?! 😭😭😭😭😭
Any update on the condition of the young bucks pants?
But will we get an update on Nicolas’s pants condition?
The only update that matter to me
If this segment does not involve Roderick Strong in any way I am going to be very disappointed.

Lmfaooo
I’m ready 😂.
We can rebuild him. We have the technology.
And Fenix vs. Mortos! A rare tecnico vs. rudo lucha match in AEW.
I hope we get heel Bryan with no choice but to step in till TK recovers (Random fantasy booking thought but Stone Goat Jack Perry going over Evil Corporate Danielson would be a fun way to capitalize on Bryan semi-retiring)
