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.



It sucks so much that this is the persona Ricochet has chosen because he is a truly world class talented performer and someone who I used to be genuinely excited to watch.

Ricochet's centrist gimmick is pretty ambitious, but if he can get it over, it'll be electrifying to hear an arena full of people chanting "Better things aren't possible"

US Sentator Andrew Yang did a heavyweight champ sort of callout to WWE in reference to these 180 letters or less tit-for-tat internet fights.


Twitter is weak and I rub it in that "mine" has over 700k followers who all know that I don't even use the website(except for follow bots, because they are stupid).

"Social Media Sensation lives in isolation in a waterlocked dungeon" how's that for a tabloid headline?

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.

My favourite rando post is still “whatever davemeltzer says do flux at every telling” by poster Daniel Bryan. It came out at the same time as the real DBry’s concussion results and was a great gimmick post. I still miss RGL and his Professor Kevin Nash avatar.

So I haven't watched the WWE for a while, and heard that undertaker was finally retiring, so I decided to check the thread for commentary regarding the survivor series. There's a lot of chat in the thread about the undertaker being some sort of a huge arsehole irl, can I get a tldr on that?

i'm one line into these results and i already have whiplash from how everything here is backwards

didn't Ember JUST come back? Isn't Toni one of their few remaining faces?

EDIT: A loving STRAP MATCH?! Like I know Cody and Brodie had a great one earlier this year but like that is the exception!

Cody v Brodie was a dog collar match, and a wwe strap match is much worse. they use the "touch the four corners to win" rule and sometimes even put lights on the posts so the audience doesn't even need to count to four

Ember's record since returning:

Ember Moon & Rhea Ripley defeat Dakota Kai & Raquel Gonzalez (11:49)
Ember Moon defeats Jessi Kamea (3:58)
Dakota Kai defeats Ember Moon (16:20)
Ember Moon & Toni Storm defeat Dakota Kai & Raquel Gonzalez (12:06)
Candice LeRae defeats Ember Moon

Toni's record since returning:

Toni Storm defeats Aliyah (2:32)
Toni Storm defeats Shotzi Blackheart (13:49)
Candice LeRae defeats Toni Storm (10:17)
Ember Moon & Toni Storm defeat Dakota Kai & Raquel Gonzalez (12:06)

Apparently Toni beating Dakota and Raquel last week made her go,"You know who I should team up with instead of the tag partner I won a match with? The people we beat!"

even better toni storm got beat up post match by those same people she joined with last 2 matches she was a face. They built up this Indi Hartwell and Candice alliance only to not have Indi in the War Games match. Just awful booking.

I was wondering the same, and also just how racist the WWE will make it if/when either gets bumped up to the main roster.

You forgot wait until it has long since past, and everyone has forgotten about it, then re-do it and try to claim it was WWE's idea all along.
