I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.



I don’t know if Twitter DM technology is advanced enough for that

He did spark the last “why no women in New Japan” twitter thing since apparently the only mark that a woman has succeeded in wrestling is that a men’s promotion will bring them in to work second from the bottom below random eight man tags; rather than them building something up themselves.

He also pretty much admitted he understood the historical and cultural differences it didn't care, he just wanted to start a Twitter argument.

What is bad about Vince McMahon as a human?
I’ve seen people say he’s a bad person and poo poo on him. But he seems like a solid, successful man. He seems to care for his wrestlers well being genuinely, so I don’t know why people don’t like him.

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.
AEW has too much talent now like WWE and it will waste people.

Also AEW's Hangman should sign with WWE.

It's because it is hard to gauge if people are actually excited to see Matt Cardona.

i agree with the brain poisoned guy as long as there are crowds but if there aren't crowds then i don't care. i mean it's not as good for business but it makes better shows which is good for business in the long-term unless you stop being able to deliver. it's hard to deliver. i don'tknow

Related to this, I've been kind of fascinated by the subtle ways wrestlers have had to change to adapt to a fake crowd. With MJF, it felt like he was working the other people on the roster as much as the audience at home.

I dunno, I kind of see where he's coming from. At this point, people think Eddie Kingston was just a one-shot and now he's moving on. So if he shows up on Dynamite again out of nowhere, that'd be kinda cool 'cause it's like oh poo poo, he actually is sticking around! Might make a cool TV moment.

But it doesn't reeeeaaallly matter.
