Hopefully the people down at NXT are getting media training classes, at least.

So yeah, I'm just really used to not sticking my neck out on any social media these days.

What's funny is many companies will then also frown upon the fact that you aren't on Facebook/Twitter/etc because they'll think you have something to hide and it works against you and they use that as an excuse to not hire you. It's beyond frustrating.

Best idea is to have a twitter and facebook for your company, family and whichever friends you're certain won't tag you in dick pictures.

Sid's twitter consists of him retweeting goons posting beers, drunktweeting Raw, and him asking why people are sending him links to buy online Viagra. He "gets" twitter more than anyone in WWE.

Between that and fears over job security is why most of their Twitter games are so poor.

Is the Sid on twitter real now, or is it still a fake?

He hasn't said much since getting signed, but Kevin Steen's (@fightsreenfight) a fun follow. As is Johnny Gargano (@johnnygargano). And I just found PWG's Excalibur (@shutupexcalibur).

Karl Anderson and Rocky Romero are good follows if you give the slightest drat about NJPW. My two favorite accounts last year were Devitt and Steen's but they've been understandably quiet recently.

Regal doesn't tweet a lot but he's often entertaining and informative when he does.

Regal's feed is usually part self-promotion, part dry-wit observation, and part just seeming like a generally pleasant person overall.

Based on his interview on Art of Wrestling it seems like genuinely doesn't like social media or the IWC in general so I can't really blame him for not wanting to be involved.

They're just paintball masks they bought at Walmart. Someone linked a catalog where you can buy one for :20bux: back when they started wearing them.
