This week on The Obituary:  GOC, BluKroovy & JBF discuss why AFTERBIRTHS in pro wrestling are a leading cause of its decline in popularity and how this problem became even more apparent after watching the AEW Dynamite episode from November 10, 2021. Thanks to Jim Cornette, we all learned that the phrase "afterbirth" (aka a post-match beat down or some other pointless garbage) is a legitimate wrestling term that was once used by insiders of the industry. Now, it's become one of the biggest and worst TV tropes in professional wrestling and it's killing the business that we all love. The gang also has their 2021 WWE SURVIVOR SERIES DRAFT where each person sets out to make the best 5-man Survivor Series team possible by only using pro wrestlers from the current WWE RAW & WWE Smackdown rosters. Who came out with the best WWE Survivor Series team? That's for YOU to decide!   Join Wrestling Obituary on Patreon for full video of each episode plus behind-the-scenes photos, videos, extra content & more! https://www.patreon.com/WrestlingObituary   Subscribe to Wrestling Obituary on YouTube for video highlights from each episode https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnroJLgLzBVyfb386CUsB8g   Follow Us on Twitter:   @WrestlingObitch @GirlOnCinema @BluKroovy   Follow Us on Instagram:   @WrestlingObituary @GirlOnCinema

This week on The Obituary: Girl On Cinema, BluKroovy & JBF discuss the detrimental lack of personality in the pro wrestling figures of today. "Characters" like The Rock, Stone Cold, The Undertaker & even John Cena are all a thing of the past. In the modern version of professional wrestling, it's gimmicks over personalities. And that's a big problem that's killing the business. The gang also gives their sp00ky review of NXT Halloween Havoc 2021 in this week's Key Demo Korner. Halloween may be over but there's still plenty of scares to go around when you watch WWE.   Join Wrestling Obituary on Patreon for full video of each episode plus behind-the-scenes photos, videos, extra content & more! https://www.patreon.com/WrestlingObituary   Subscribe to Wrestling Obituary on YouTube for video highlights from each episode https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnroJLgLzBVyfb386CUsB8g   Follow Us on Twitter:   @WrestlingObitch @GirlOnCinema @BluKroovy   Follow Us on Instagram:   @WrestlingObituary @GirlOnCinema

This week on The Obituary: REUINTED & IT FEELS SO GOOD! It's the return of GirlOnCinema as she joins BluKroovy & JBF to discuss just how overly commercialized the modern pro wrestling product has become and why that's bad for business. Professional wrestling used to be all about building actual stars to draw money for their companies. But thanks to Vince McMahon and WWE, it's all about the merch sales now. Toys, T-shirts, replica title belts; Wrestling is now just an endless supply of products and we, as fans, are just meant to consume, consume and consume some more! But maybe that's a bad thing? Maybe someone needs to draw a line to keep the value of the product just as high as its volume. And Wrestling Obituary is here to draw that line. The gang also reviews AEW RAMPAGE from October 8, 2021, and Escape The UnderTaker, an interactive WWE-themed special from Netflix. SpOoOoky! But you know what's even more scary than that? Sean Ross Sapp. And the gang has a VERY special message for everyone's favorite "wrestling journalist" at the end of this episode. So enjoy! And don't get TOO scared.   Join Wrestling Obituary on Patreon for full video of each episode plus behind-the-scenes photos, videos, extra content & more! https://www.patreon.com/WrestlingObituary   Subscribe to Wrestling Obituary on YouTube for video highlights from each episode https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnroJLgLzBVyfb386CUsB8g   Follow Us on Twitter:   @WrestlingObitch @GirlOnCinema @BluKroovy   Follow Us on Instagram:   @WrestlingObituary @GirlOnCinema

This week on the Obituary: Girl On Cinema has died (at least for this episode) so in her absence, BluKroovy & JBF sit down to shoot the sh*t and answer some of the Top 50 Pro Wrestling Questions about their history, knowledge, and personal opinions regarding the business of Professional Wrestling. When did they start watching wrestling? Who is their favorite wrester? What is their favorite wrestling match? All that and so much more! Get to know BluKroovy & JBF just a little bit better as they shoot from the hip in this VERY special episode.

This week on The Obituary: Girl On Cinema, JBF & BluKroovy discuss The Elite Problem with modern professional wrestling. And that problem is the Executive Vice Presidents of AEW: The Elite. Consisting of Cody Rhodes, The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega, The Elite have made themselves quite well known within the wrestling community and have certainly made a HUGE impact on the pro wrestling business itself. But making a huge impact doesn't always mean making the right choices. So Wrestling Obituary is here to talk about these four men and how they have helped shaped the wrestling landscape of today, for better or worse. Minus the better. The gang also talks about Big E winning the WWE Championship, NXT 2.0, and they share their story of how BluKroovy got them BANNED from their favorite local wrestling promotion with only a couple of tweets.

This week on the Obituary: Girl On Cinema, JBF, & BluKroovy discuss how completely over produced the modern pro wrestling product has become. They talk about everything from the stage, to the lighting, to the ring, to the camera work, to the video packages, to pretty much any part of professional wrestling production that you can think of. The WWE is obviously the worst offender of over producing their TV show. But AEW may be going in that exact same direction. Find out just how much overproduction has lead to the death of pro wrestling right here, right now. The gang also reviews the 100th Episode of AEW Dynamite from September 1, 2021, the Go Home Show to AEW ALL OUT 2021.   Join Wrestling Obituary on Patreon for full video of each episode plus behind-the-scenes photos, videos, extra content & more! https://www.patreon.com/WrestlingObituary   Subscribe to Wrestling Obituary on YouTube for video highlights from each episode https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnroJLgLzBVyfb386CUsB8g   Follow Us on Twitter:   @WrestlingObitch @GirlOnCinema @BluKroovy   Follow Us on Instagram:   @WrestlingObituary @GirlOnCinema

This week on the Obituary: GirlOnCinema, JBF, & BluKroovy discuss how political correctness and "cancel culture" have affected the business of professional wrestling. Jim Cornette, Charlotte Flair and especially Max Caster (along with countless others) have felt these effects first hand. But how has PC culture affected the companies like AEW & WWE? Does it help or hurt the pro wrestling business overall? In addition to this topic, the Gang also reviews NXT Takeover 36 and AEW Dynamite August 25, 2021.
