The spot where one of the athletes flies out of the ring onto a group of enemies that have conveniently gathered to soften their fall could be a drinking game at this point.

What annoys me . . . the lack of pacing and psychology within a match. Those two go hand in hand.

Well, Stevie, it's like Dusty Rhodes said, "Do not do shit you don't know how to do!"

29 wrestlers use the spear and 49  use the super kick thats what really grinds my gears

I hate how NOBODY effin sells. Everybody's to busy trying to get their sh*t in, its all move to move to move to move w/ no rest for the impact of those moves to sink in.

I hate when one guy gets destroyed for 5 minutes, then miraculously gets up and hits one move and the other guy sells as if he got hit by a truck. It was ONE move, the dude acts like he got the 5 minute whooping

Its either no sells or Superkick superkick superkick 😂

I miss the days when Canadian Destroyers and C4's were considered absurd. Now they're as normal as a DDT

I remember when finishers mattered

The obviously cooperating on the top turnbuckle absolutely kills me. I hate it

I blame Ring of Honor. Early 2010s Ring of Honor, for as fun as I admit that it was to see at the time, really brought a lot of these bad habits to the forefront.

It's all about spots, nothing else, and I hate it.

I attended a Stevie seminar ten years ago. He was the one who taught me to lockup with some aggression. He stressed that it's not supposed to look cooperative. He was right, then and he is right, now

I think we're in an era so far removed from kayfabe that trying to make things look real is thought of as unnecesary to a lot of guys. Basically "no one thinks this is real anyway, so may as well just be over the top and pop the crowd with our neat stunt and gymnastics show"

Wrestling these days lacks common sense, People do moves for the sake of it

They've absolutely killed finishers

Just like undertaker said. Young stars grew up watching wrestling & saw what moves got the biggest pops now they all incorporate them into their 5 min matches because they want those crowed reactions. Now you don’t have 2 guys fighting it’s 2 guys taking turns doing their favourite moves

What I did like in SNME was the finishers actually finishing matches. When people kick out of a finisher too often it is not a "finisher", but another move.

Since the comment section has become a "what I hate about modern wrestling", I'm going to throw in my two cents: the size of any company's roster. Why would I care about that many people?

My biggest gripe is the same one Mark Callaway recently put out there... that there's no such thing as a "finisher". People hit signature ending move after signature ending move and everyone kicks out of them 4, 5, 6 times... it's ridiculous and absurd at this point.

Kicking out of finishers used to be reserved for top-tier stars in storyline defining matches or PLE headlining matches... and even then it was once... MAYBE twice. Nobody got up from the third Stunner... or Tombstone... or Pedigree.

Nowadays, regular everyday matches on Raw/Smackdown you've got to hit Joe Midcard Jobber with 7 different finishing moves, the corner ring post, the steel steps, the timekeeper's bell, the plastic shell on the announcer's table, and Tiffany Stratton's custom pink briefcase before you can get a 3-count... it's absolutely fucking ridiculous.
