CAWdy is the poster child of nepotism while DisGOAT was the gimmick of the year in the golden era play fighting
Play fighters in 2019
He’s made it on his own, was watched by a larger audience than CAWdy will ever reach, I can go and on....

Disco is irrelevant.
shyt, the whole point of doing a disco dancing gimmick in the 90's was "Look how irrelevant this lame heel is, folks."
He has to rely on "Oh, my era drew better." Because he himself couldn't draw flies to shyt. Couldn't draw a dime if you gave him a fine art school quality pencil and an enlarged, highly detailed photograph of a dime, both sides.
Look at that list, Undertaker, DisGOAT, nwo, Austin, Rock, Angle
Show me list with CAWdy or any of the AEW cosplayers on list like that

He’s got to be around 50 and you still expect him play fighting in 2019

With the Monday Night ratings war still being the hot topic of discussion and comparisons within the industry, at least in the United States, a secondary set of question which hasn't been answered has come up. Who draws what ratings and why?
Wrestlers have tried to talk about who individually draws what to prove who is over, and who isn't, bookers have done the same, and management theoretically pores over the quarter-hours trying to figure out what lesson exactly the viewing patterns of the public is telling them about which individual wrestlers.
Like most of pro wrestling, lots of talk. Lots of figures quoted without understanding. Almost no research.
With the start of the fall season at the beginning of September, we've been compiling all the quarter hours and who was in them in a key position. There are many ways you can do ratings for individuals, but the decision was made that the best is to judge based on how the ratings went up or down as compared with the previous quarter. Obviously if there is a huge audience watching, getting a big rating for a quarter is easier than if you start out. The quarter hour differences, pluses and minuses, tell if more people were tuning on then tuning out when this personality, and this is a personality driven business, was the key part of the show.
With any system, there are flaws. The two key ones right now are the 9 p.m. to 9:15 p.m. quarter hour on Nitro. With the start of the NFL and the start of Raw, you are almost guaranteed to drop at least a few rating points. The other key position is on Raw, during that unpredictable period somewhere between 10 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. when Nitro finally goes off the air. In theory, Raw should pick up viewers during that quarter, although as we've discussed, the reality is that isn't always the case, but in theory that should be a good period for Raw. Aside from that, this system is pretty well fair and fool-proof. Wrestlers in the first quarter hour, since the show is just starting and there is no plus or minus to figure from, aren't figured into the equation, although the pattern right now for both shows has been to start the show with interviews with the biggest stars.
And before getting into anymore analysis, we'll just present the data as it exists. The only names listed are those who since the start of September, have contributed to at least a .5 plus or minus rating. Wrestlers who aren't listed, and these are the majority, are basically ones that over the course of between 9/1 and 10/13 (the 10/20 shows aren't included in these numbers) have really made no ratings difference.

Jesus I don’t understand, I mean I know it’s a trolling gimmick and all but it’s an a lot of effort for something you say you haven’t watched in a decade every thread
Here in this thread you put in effort to support one of the most “play fighter” gimmicks of that time
I actually watch the shyt from time to time and don’t spend this much time thinking about it
There are women outside man, get yourself some new gear or something and try to talk to someone
