I've watched plenty of ROH too. Didn't really get him there either.

The point about crowd interaction falls down too. Crowds are changing quite rapidly, because the WWE has chased away certain types of fans. You know who is really good at playing audiences? For real? Primo Colon. Dude came from Puerto Rico where being good with crowds had to be a thing you knew how to do, even if your daddy ran the place. Guy would stir people up on fucking Superstars if he was working heel. Unreal.

Now? No one really gives a shit about the stuff that used to work in wrestling, because no one is allowed to do it anymore. It's all very "soft." Adam Cole might be able to say one thing over and over again and get people to copy it, but that's not the same as crowd manipulation. Not really. And Cole has never worked in front of sizable crowds regularly?

I dunno -- I'm not articulating my point well. Basically, wrestling audiences have changed. Guys who knew how to get people engaged have trouble doing it now, because sincere interest is gone. Now there are just ironic fans clapping and chanting to easy things almost randomly. Good luck with that.
