DarkstarIV posted:Did I mention how stupid Dave is? (This is on the AAW/Elgin situation) It's kind of weird, because these people are obviously upset at Elgin and think he's a piece of poo poo - and yet they paid to see him? I take Dave's answer as "they're not doing it yet, but we'll see if people care enough to vote with their money and/or if promoters are worried about that", which is answering the question posed. I don't expect Dave to have an opinion on the societal/ethical aspects of this, because it's Dave.

Chris James 2 posted:AAW's card last night was almost completely unknown before showtime, including a lot of competitors like Elgin. They quite literally did not pay to see him because they didn't even know he'd be on the show, especially with AAW not having booked Elgin recently prior to this MassRafTer posted:In the very next tweet he says if he appeared unadvertised at AAW that was a bad move on their part. Thanks, that's some context I was missing.

SamuraiFoochs posted:Okay but the implication is basically that she is one of the 10 most talented people in the company period. Which uh.... They literally say "top 10 most popular wrestlers" and don't imply anything about talent, though. If you had a chart of crowd dB annotated with show highlights and cross-referenced that with merch sales and a few other things, I wouldn't be shocked to see Alexa in the top 10. Probably why Vince keeps a belt on her. I feel like I have the stupid wrestling fan opinion for hoping that WWE someday showcases more advanced wrestling and complex storylines/characters on Raw and Smackdown. I've never purchased a shirt or an action figure, cut the cable years ago, give them a few views on Hulu, and spend maybe $20 on the Network for SummerSlam and Wrestlemania. I'm almost certainly not in their target market, so why am I surprised that their show makes no sense to me and makes sense to the Alexa-worshippers?

At some point in life you realize you need to assume the best of people. There are a few shitheads for sure, but if you think everyone is a shithead, you wind up a bitter old rear end in a top hat.

If by "tolerated" you mean probed for weeks at a time. He was a trainwreck of a poster in a way that made me want to see what poo poo he would stir up next. I was surprised how much the Board still talks about him.

I'd absolutely get in the ring with Nick Gage before peak Steiner Bros or something, but I get worked more by Gage. The Thumbtack Jack and Arquette matches alone are enough to make me believe there's a tiny sliver of a chance the match could go sideways in a gory way. I know he's not going to kill Jericho on national TV, but that somehow still seems more likely than a Perro Aguayo Jr. freak accident in my mind.

I knew these were some bad takes in here, but I watched WWE for the first time in over 4 years the other night, and that puts some of these in a special context. Alexa Bliss and a doll were at a playground talking to Dew Drop or something and it was garbage.

davidbix posted:So...meanwhile...is this the right thread to discuss how the tribalism—mainly from the pro-WWE side—is getting incredibly loving concerning? Especially in the last few weeks and then again in the last few days. I don't touch the poop as much as you do, but isn't this kind of just the last 5 or so years in general? The spectrum of "truly mentally ill" to "is an rear end in a top hat with bad opinions" has always been there, but now they're a) all on social media b) encouraged to share their opinions.
