The first one is fair in Kayfabe. Three time champion, headliner of the last two Wrestlemanias should be an earlier pick than guy who's yet to debut

well the suspension was brought up in kayfabe, so someone who's currently suspended has an uncertain future about how they're coming back, compared to someone who had a legendary run in the feeder leagues.

Hating Dave Meltzer remains one of the most inexplicable things in the fandom

The best part is folks like Prichard/Bischoff/Russo basically taking a hint from how effective labeling news you don't like as "fake news" has been in the larger culture, and using it to discredit any criticism from wrestling journalists.

I think it was someone who had a free upgrade from frequent flier points who didn't give it to the Undertaker. Hell, knowing WWE it was probably also someone who had the gall to pay for their own upgrade.

I don't know if that's insecurity, or if he's just trying to talk about things in the ways that ~The Workers~ talk about stuff. He probably hears these kinds of comparisons made on wrestling podcasts and wants to adapt that language to have an air of authority about it, just based off of vague assumptions of what he thinks those eras were.

"Also you can say what you want about Vince but once you sign with WWE there is never any doubt who The Boss is."

This is the most vapid, completely devoid of saying anything remotely meaningful statement I think there's ever been in this thread.

Say what you want anbout Vince, but when you work in his company, no one can argue that he is who you are working for!

Also they had to phrase it really weird "thank you for being great champs of sd live" is not a thing a normal person would say, and then further muddy it by having the last frame be two words instead of 1. Probably because they were so desperate to use it for a sick Kofi burn.

Is it? 5G hotspots are being marketed as home broadband replacements in a way that 4G/LTE hotspots weren't.

Most 5G is going to be around as fast as a good 4G connection, but with potentially less latency. The super-fast 5G is millimeter wave, of which a tower is usually not enough to cover a football stadium. That's the one that would theoretically replace your broadband, but it'll probably only ever be deployed in the most densest/richest parts of cities. Any walls or obstructions at all will obliterate the signal.

Hasn't it been proven that like 60% of WWE's audience votes Democrat?

There was a survey in 2013 that floats around a bunch that found WWE to be left leaning but incredibly low turnout, but this is really only one data point, and I don't think there's much else that talks about it that I've seen: https://www.businessinsider.com/politics-sports-you-like-2013-3 and it might also be more easily correlated by demographics rather than sports preference.

This whole "attaching every single negative trait to someone who sucks" just reeks of bad faith, especially in the light of people doubling down on poo poo like he's a MAGA CHUD just to avoid the cognitive dissonance of being wrong about someone who just sucks. There's plenty of weird creeps who have good or neutral politics, so I don't get where is the comic value in misrepresenting that.
