And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

I actually like that Jericho went from,"She's using fear to get under Shida's skin :hmmyes:" straight to,"SHE'S UNDEAD! :supaburn:"

Yeah I like it because it's in that perfect grey area of "we don't know what the gently caress is up with this lady". Veering from "well she's playing head games" to "Jesus christ what is her deal" is a natural reaction without going "One of our employees is a zombie" or "Obviously she's not really a zombie!"

It’s great. Nobody buys the gimmicks being real. Everyone can do them, but everyone knows none of this poo poo is real. Luchasaurus is a man in a dinosaur mask, OC low effort kicks don’t do real damage, Statlander isn’t an alien, etc. Abadon is just a weird person who likes to bite.

I just meant I didn't like how they kept stressing it was a gimmick and calling it out as such

Wtf they talk about how Statlander is an alien, but Abadon can’t be a demon zombie monster or whatever the gently caress.

Because unlike aliens demon zombies aren't real.

They only said gimmick in the context of saying her deal is explicitly NOT one. "She lives in the makeup." Not sure what you're actually upset about here.

Which is of course an impossible comparison point. Just accept that other people like the gimmick and your opinion isn't universal.

Yes if they put her on a bad show where they would go out of their way to expose her and book her terribly people wouldn't like her. I don't even like fuckin Nakamura anymore. What's your point here?
