Antisemetic?

Video footage on Twitter, that’s a verbatim transcript with the video

I think there’s a healthy balance between maintaining the good memories while also holding them accountable, especially when they exploit causes or politics for popularity

Additional context:
Yesterday the quote circulating didn’t have the first two paragraphs in it, they were kept quiet until footage got out. Which makes you wonder why somebody only half outed his comments.

If you want to read about others in wrestling and their hypocrisy check my pinned post ✌️

Screen grab from Twitter highlighting Sami Zayn being offensive

Doing a hell of a job of changing the place’s culture from the inside like people claim

Hangman only held the belt for 24 more days than MJF did in their 2nd reigns.

MJF dropped on his 8th defence, Hangman on his 6th.

We live in a world where the babyface overcoming the big evil got less defences than a paint by numbers (for his standards) MJF run

But agreed he’s allowed favourites

In short, this isn’t the first time and it isn’t the last time but time will tell.

DoN can’t be credited to Darby for ticket sales and I’m not sure Forbidden Door can either -> but it will be.

Same scenario in which Swerve found himself in too I should add. I loved being seated for Danielsons last championship win but it was at another’s expense.

Dragons reign looks good on paper because it’s off the back of Swerve but Mox had to rebuild everything as best he could.

But he did?
Hanger dropping the belt to Joe early is a good example. Everything rose with Hanger and MJF benefitted from that foundation massively followed by going in to safe markets with safe opponents for tickets.

June-August will be very tough markets and MJF reign looks better by comparison.

Works right through my tv tbh so haven’t had any issues 🤷‍♂️

I’m also from a generation of watching wrestling that’s always got a spare HDMI cable lying around my laptop if needs be

Seeing Rayne Leverkusen do a WWE introduction video while acting more like Thekla than like herself, is as funny as when they had Monroe just act like Toni Storm.

The second hand embarrassment from them wanting AEW talent is pretty bad

A company this size should absolutely have its own merchandising department and be able to stock actual merch when they come to places like Wembley. Very good long term sign for sure (sucks for PWTees artists)

The PWTees situation seems a long time coming in fairness.

Super shit for people to be out of a job obviously and hopefully they can pick up work direct with AEW if they’re actually building a full in house team

I think people are just upset that artists they like,and have support here,are out of work and blaming AEW for separating and costing them their gig

As somebody who spent years working for outsourcers, it certainly sucks but if you’re not with the parent company you’re not with the parent company.

A simpsons reference from 30 years ago shoehorned into a wrestling meme?

This is THE most Irish way of finding you’re on this app

Head to head would be suicide regardless of how poor WWE’s business is next year.

That said, Saudi shows are early enough in the day so running All In on the Saturday evening would be a smart play I think. Instantly compatible to night 1 without people being burned out from too much content

I’ve just seen that AEW Dynasty had 20+ more minutes of wrestling than both nights of Wrestlemania combined.

They’re never beating the allegations (even the ones outside of court)

Thank you Vince and Thank you Brock chants this weekend.

Yes, I am judgemental to the average WWE fan.

I absolutely agree with that but also the point that you made about how we don’t know everything yet and it could be for her own safety.

I’m not excusing it or anything, I just think it’s a shit situation that I’m looking forward to learning about when it’s all out.

My understanding is that it’s several state commissions but I’m also not an American here so I could be wrong

How would you work around several states blocking using a talent?

…..And a WWE crowd chanted “thank you Vince” this weekend so already this feels like an impossible mountain to climb, but still, we need to do better and deserve better.

Crowd did a “thank you Vince” chant this weekend. Says it all

Ok, what is my explanation/story for him turning from cool dude in CRU to Temu Gollum explosively in the confines of AEW lore?

Ok….so why has he gone from being in CRU to this?

It’s Saturday, you know what that means! AEW -

Ok but seriously, what’s the kayfabe explanation for whatever the fuck Lio Rush’s gimmick is atm?

And rather than just self plug, for the larger AEW audience on here there is a fantastic breakdown of Revolution in this issue along with so much incredible coverage of wrestling around the globe.

Give yourself a treat and give it a read

The amazing team at the SSN let me write a piece about accountability in wrestling.

My hope is that this gets others thinking and those with platforms to call out more of the hypocrisy in wrestling

(This was written before more WWE Vince McMahon return teases/more Marty Scurll support took place)

For anyone else that’s a success but for TKO? This is a major failure

Also highlights a downturn in them as a company

The horror/hilarity of the MyAEW live channel.

Booting it up and being dropped into Cody vs WARHORSE, what a cursed memory…
