Not just Jake and Randy, but an era of in depth characters and storylines. So what if it was real life cartoons? People watched because people cared about what the we’re watching. It was intriguing. We wanted to know what was going to happen next. A big part of it was taped wrestling on Saturdays and Sundays and Prime Time Wrestling on Mondays. We had an occasional SNME and 4 PPVs. Not an over- saturation of wrestling everyday on every media outlet. There was plenty of time to tell the story so everything made sense. Nothing was rushed all i’s were dotted so by the time the PPVs came around it was a big deal.
Jake and Randy are 10000x better than anyone today. They know how to cut a promo and tell a story in the ring. No twinks, no p h agg ots
Everything was 100% believable.

Hell just looking at Jake’s size, he obviously wasn’t a “body guy” nor was that any relevance to his character, but the man was a legit 6’4”+ out there. Take a prime Jake and throw him into today’s landscape and he’d dwarf a lot of these guys in an AEW ring and elsewhere, and look far more intimidating.
