WOL: There is no business quite like the pro wrestling business
It’s a hot Sunday in the Northeast U.S. and that means an equally steamy Wrestling Observer Live Sunday with Josh Nason, available early and ad-free for subscribers and worldwide on Sports Byline USA.
Josh kicks off with a look at all the happenings from Saturday’s live AEW Collision and the newly-named Continental Challenge Cup which apparently is tough to remember the name of.
He also talks about the social media dust-up between AJ Styles and Arik Cannon and the subsequent discussion about paying dues. Alright, then.
He also hits on his big topic of the week of why the wrestling industry has been shamed into not publicly celebrating major accomplishments like packing in tens of thousands of fans into stadiums for WrestleMania, SummerSlam and All In — all because the numbers aren’t as “good” as the prior year. That is insanity. Let’s discuss.
Josh hits on some of the big brain takes on social media that included whether Roman Reigns is a historically overrated main eventer, the level of smooching up when it came to the runtime of AEW Grand Slam Mexico, and some other things he knows he thinks.
