I never set a person on fire so I can't criticize Kane for doing so You can say the same thing for electrocuting a man's testicles. ...hopefully. |

I don't see Baron with an account on FAN. He doesn't even know what it's like to criticize wrestling. Has he tried to make a point while also being somewhat witty? Does he know the struggle of having to read a whole multi page thread in order to make sure your comment hasn't already been made? Everyone with a twitter account thinks they can do what we do. Baron needs to know his role and show a little respect to wrestling critics until he's typed an essay in our hands.

Love that he liked this shit: You can't critique wrestlers because you "AIN'T IN DA BIZNEZZ", but you can totally use the lingo... Apparently. Oh god, those dudes are my favorite. The ones that try to act like they're "one of the boys" while sending angry tweets at Meltzer. I know people who have told me I don't know shit about wrestling because I've never worked in the bizness. Usually over the fact I like the Young Bucks & don't think they're "killing the business." How dare I question the genius of the color commentator for an indie fed in a gym drawing 200 people on a good night right? Clearly my 30 or so years following that bizness pale in comparison to a guy in a shirt and tie who has taken a handful of bumps in his "wrestling career." And those dudes are EXACTLY the demo you're describing. Clearly none of us know as much as them or appreciate the bizzzzzzzness as much as them. |

To Corbin's original point which was hilariously lost in the shuffle of everyone bumrushing him verbally, he said normies can't 'judge an actor's ability' unless they themselves know what it means to act. I agree with that.
Normies can't judge a wrestler's ability unless they've taken bumps before. I agree with that.
The other stuff that was misquoted (i.e. you can't have an opinion unless you're specially trained in whatever the opinion is about) is laughably false, though.

The first two points you make are exactly the same as the you can't have an opinion unless you are trained in whatever the opinion is about. I have never been trained how to act but I can tell you when someones doing a shitty stilted job of it. |

I have never been trained how to act but I can tell you when someones doing a shitty stilted job of it. Hmm I think it's the nuance of how he said it. I read 'judging the ability of' someone as 'stating a fact' not giving an opinion. In other words, tv critics like Ebert are giving opinions on something they haven't actually done while Tobey Maguire commenting on how good/bad Tom Holland did in Spider-Man: Homecoming would come off as more of a fact. But semantics are largely subjective on Twitter and again anybody is allowed to have an opinion about anything without getting a Masters' degree in it first. Without opinions from normies to affect the experts they would all act like Tom Hanks or wrestle like Chris Benoit and how boring would that be. |

Supposed to be a heel. Gets in trouble for being a heel.

Yes and it was terrible.
Not really. Everybody can have an opinion, but no experience = not credible.

So wait... if I can't criticize it because I've never done it, does that mean I can't compliment it because I've never done it?

Despite never cooking, I know more about food than Robert Irvine. See how this works?

How many bumps do I have to take before I can say I like Corbin? Do I have to work a whole match to judge a match? Do I have to draw before I can talk about whether someone was a draw?
...I can draw a picture of a puppy. I'm the biggest draw of all time!
...I do like Corbin but I'm not sure it's worth it.
