Patience

By Scott Keith on 26 November 2024

Hey Scott,

Thinking Patience made more sense as the GNR song based on the way Full Gear went.
WTF was with that ending?
Moxley no sold the briefcase only for OC to go down because of Wheeler Yuta?
Then you had them pour some kind of mouthwash like liquid on OC because reasons.
Next up was Hangman Page tweenering it up by saving OC, not fighting Moxley, and then giving Christian a contract.
The contract that apparently doesn’t work until it’s signed right then and there, delaying the quick cash-in, so a worse version of MiTB.
Then you have Jay White, as miscast as a face as Cole and his whole group, doing the same limp as his opponent and stopping Christian only to slowly wander off after.
Finally, to top it all off, the suicidal pink jacket guy who lost to Moxley’s buddy clean last week, is now coming after the champ but not before cursing as much as he can in 4 seconds like a cool teen.
Who is this supposed to speak to exactly?
As an aside, it’s a really dumb look to never display your world championship especially when newer viewers might be inclined to tune in.

Yeah I know a lot of people really liked the ending of the show but I don't get it. This whole Death Riders thing isn't doing it for me, probably because I already lived through years of the nWo never getting their comeuppance and also because I don't think Darby and his pink jacket is the guy who I want to see end the big scary heel faction. For me, as a viewer and not as a “Hurrrh ratings and attendance ACKSHULLY” critic, what the show is lacking lately is the big fun lighthearted counterpoint to all the heel heat. Like the Ghostbusters cosplay match or Sting having wacky tag team matches with monsters. Like I think one low-key big problem is the retirement of Sting, because he really added a piece of the puzzle that they can't duplicate at the moment.
