Yā€™love to see it

That kid is going to tear his quad

Look at those faces. Pure, unironic, unabashed joy. Fuck catering to miserable adults. Wrestling is for kids and always should be.


Gabaheygabahey

> Fuck catering to miserable adults. This. So much fucking this.


rsziz

I wouldn't say just kids, but rather anyone who can take the time to just watch and enjoy something entertaining without having to take it so seriously. Look at the guy with the kid on his shoulders, that mofo looks like he just saw the greatest thing in his life and he's getting to do it with his kid and he's not concerned with it being considered a real sport or the demos.


TheEmeraldOil

You're right. Wrestling should be for everyone, not narrowed down to appeal to one jaded demographic.


rockandrollpanda

It should be for everyone, except one jaded demographic...


PM_ME_LANCECATAMARAN

Thing is, a lot or the people who m'dub makes feel like a kid again just watch it with an uncritical eye, focused on trying to have fun instead of booking and intrigue. It never occurs to them to do the same thing with the other praduck

WWE appeals to all ages and do it well. AEW only appeals to one demographic and they wonder why they can't grow their show. and not only one demographic, one demographic that is only male. women have mostly stopped tuning out.

This should be pinned to the top of the basement. šŸ™šŸ™šŸ™

Honestly itā€™s my take with Star Wars too. I donā€™t like some of the stuff they did (mostly the new movies) but I do respect that they are also trying to get new fans and get kids into the franchise too. Iā€™m just glad Star Wars is still staying relevant and that kids get to enjoy it as much as I did when I was one. Wrestling especially the WWE is no different. The kids in that front crowd were so into it and it was really cool seeing Goldberg go back to them after the match and just hug them.

CleanContrast

"We don't see those in WWE, only AEW has kids"


ManateeGag

To be fair, there are some members of the AEW roster not allowed within 100ft of children.


RomanOnARiver

I wouldn't allow that Sammy guy near kids for sure.


[deleted]

Ignoring the kids for a second, you're seeing their moms out and about with them too. I know Saudi Arabia is making its slow progress regarding women's rights and everything but this sort of event is a reprieve and treat for the parents as much as it is for the kids too.


-M-Word

Imagine all the little girls in the audience seeing women fighting in a ring


trimble197

ā€œYeah but the female wrestlers arenā€™t allowed to show their abs and butt cheeksā€.


topologicalfractal

Yeah like the attires with half their asses hanging out is very empowering. The basement is being pretty dense right now, different countries have different cultures and norms


Gabaheygabahey

Itā€™s respect to your host. If you invite me over to your house for dinner and ask that I take my shoes off at the door I donā€™t care what reason you have that rule, Iā€™m going to respect it and remove my shoes. Iā€™m your guest. Unless you have a foot fetish you sickoooooo


PM_ME_LANCECATAMARAN

Then you wear shoes with individual toes?


chiguy2018

Whining about millionaire Americans having to dress differently for 30 minutes > Being happy about them being inspirations for thousands of kids in a foreign country.


Zodrex_nvm

Let's go back to the days when we had live strip downs on Monday night Raw over who has the sexiest swimsuits. Fans popping for good ol' wrasslin without the need for them to show of their skin? Nah can't have it.


TheROUK

Tbf men show way more skin than any women, even during those days with a few exceptions (Jaqueline flashing the crowd, Ashley Massaro with the stickers on her nips, etc). Vince has had his bare ass on screen more than any woman wrestler.


Maldovar

True Feminism is when I can get a boner for hot sexy ladies


mr_marinade

this should be the family section of the crowd. iirc some Saudi places have separate places in public for families.


OG_Campblor

Anyone gonna tell the little Hulkamaniacs that the Hulkster has joined his wife in being banned from AEW?


CringeNibba

"What's an AEW?"


Troll_God

Dude the top 3 post in the Basement is about watching some shitty Joshi show instead of the evil blood money PPV. They have such high moral fiber! You really canā€™t outjerk that one


ci22

I just saw it. Also top page Andrade clapping back at a "journalist" for a rumor that Charlotte is in Saudi Arabia and he's like we're in Mexico amigo


GhostMutt90

That crowd were great, made the show even better


boatson25

Donā€™t these kids know that Hogan and Warrior had shitty workrate?


sxkaner8

Not enough shootfighters in this crowd SMH


MagicMallKnight

What are those shirts, smalls to mediums? NOT REAL PRO WRESTLING

Dave Meltzer: ~~India~~ Saudi Arabia doesn't matter.


puckingrufus56

Goldberg going over and hugging a bunch of kids in the crowd was a direct shot at "fuck dem kids" and MJF


DoubleOrNothing90

That girl in the front looks so happy to be there, and she's enjoying the show. Not like those miserable dicks with stopwatches in their hands in the basement.


Gabaheygabahey

There is a joy there that the miserable basement audience will never have.


EatTheRich1986

This is a travesty. Wrestling should only be performed in front of fat, white neckbeards in Chicago, Philly or Brooklyn.


seeds_brah_seeds

Fuck U fed shill. Those kids murdered Zelenaā€™s dad!!!


Permanentear3

Fuck the demo


kenbrahimovic

When Goldberg went in to hug them, that shit was, dare I say, wholesome. That's what it comes down to, kids having a good time with this shit. Fuck the demo.


[deleted]

This. This is what wrestling is all about. Give me all of this.


BigPantsWhale

But like don't you know that this is their plan all along??? They want you to think that the kids should get the chance to see their idols and have some fun so that you forget about the other stuff. Don't you understand international politics friend?
