don't get me wrong I'll watch AEW over WWE any day of the week, but nothing in the wrestling world is very impressive these days.
I was just thinking about the Stone Cold Biography, and the generational divide/contrast really struck me.
There's that one part where he's just started wrestling and he's on the road, low pay, driving all these miles, and he's eating the famous Young Steve Austin tuna and potatoes 3x a day. He says at one point, he ran out of tuna, just munching potatoes, and then eventually he had to call up his Mom to send him $40 so he could buy something to eat. He's like "it was the only time I've ever asked my parents for money in my life."
Then you turn on AEW, and a guy like Trent is having his mom drive him around each week in a minivan, making a whole storyline out of it.
Was just a big
moment for me
