I'm not always agreeing with their opinions, but I do like to watch their videos.

Never got the appeal. Just seems like a Bleacher Report/BuzzFeed style content farm that churns out generic, clickbaity lists full of stuff that most of us already know. Basically following the disgusting direction news and journalism as a whole are headed. In particular, I couldn't see any value in their "fantasy booking" style videos because it's just some regular mark like me spitballing ideas. Like, what gives this dude's ideas any more credence or weight than the next guy? Why should I care about his opinion? I could never come up with a reason to get invested, so I haven't seen any of their videos. Apparently they have a big following, though. Thank you, this is perfect. I'm exactly the same way, especially after seeing enough of them to form my own opinion - best steer clear.

I think I've seen more negativity in this thread than any Whatculture video.

They try far too hard to be critical, it's always funny to rag on the product when it's bad, but these guys find the bad in the good. Pandering to the basement dweller types by discussing their opinion as if it's factual.
They're just a wrestling rip off of Zero-Punctuation (the game review vlog). If you watch a zero population review video and compare it to a WC Countdown, they try so hard to imitate ZP it's painfully cringey! Even adopting the same monotonic-rapid speech as the guy in ZP. If you're a gamer and haven't seen ZP before check it out, you won't regret it! I could watch their reviews all day.
Wrestling fans online have no banter. So the likes of WC steal banter from other outlets (such as Zero Punctuations Gaming Channel, Wrestling Memes, etc) and apply it to wrestling. There hasn't been an original comical wrestling outlet since WrestleCrap, and even then, it was all based around the bad.
Knowledgeable fans arent the ones simply able to point out the bad, it's the ones able to recognise the good in comparison to the bad. Unknowledgeable fans don't realise that...
But who wants to watch a vlog of somebody praising wrestling?

Some of Adams fantasy booking is entertaining. Can't say it carries any more weight than anything i can read on the text fed or pic fed boards. But i like hearing other peoples takes on the product. The website stuff is just so much clickbait that i generally avoid it. They do have a few decent lists out there though. Nothing ground breaking ,but the year by year "10 things you didn't know about" 1991 -2000 for WWF and WCW lists are predominantly based on fact with little opinion or personal interjection.

whatculture is horrible.. they often get their facts wrong and very negative and kinda two faced about their opinions.. and they do have an awful lot of errors for a website with articles... does anyone use spellcheck and such there? I'm not saying I'm perfect..but I'm sure as hell not running a website either..
