  1. Tony is breathing a sigh of relief right now.

    There's been a lot of discourse over on competitive Call of Duty twitter today regarding a trans woman playing in the female league of the CDL. Imagine being so bigoted that you bring this arguement up around a fucking eSport. I still have no idea why there is even a mens and women's separate leagues never mind bringing trans people into the arguement.
  3. It feels to me that it's a year too late for Mercedes in AEW. She was white hot when she left WWE and there was a ridiculous amount of hype around her, then she got injured and nothing really happened. The debut could actually be a victim of the dirt sheets giving everything away, as well as Mercedes herself pretty much spelling it out on Twitter. That being said, AEW is definitely the right place for her, it's pretty much win / win for.both her and the company. If she went to WWE, outside of the initial debut, she'd be back to the same spot she was in before she left, but in AEW, she has the chance of being a big fish in a relatively small pond in terms of womens division and the amount of money she's being paid would surely mean more focus on the women's division. All in all, I'm just glad she's being paid a shit load, same with Okada, good on them for going where the money is. Look after themselves first, every wrestler deserves a large payday, so I don't begrudge anyone that actually gets it.
  4. Who gives a fuck what a wrestler is paid, as long as it's enough and not a hot dog and glass of orange juice. If Tony is paying Okada that or more, who cares? Same with Mercedes, if they're getting a shit tonne of money, good on them.
  5. I haven't really ever listened to one of Cornettes shows outside of the odd clip here or there, but who exactly are his target audience? It's clearly not AEW fans and I can't see most WWE fans either, so who are his audience? Those fans that only watch Indie Wrestling? Those who think they're above wrestling and that WWE and AEW are too mainstream? TNA fans? I genuinely have no idea.
  6. As much as a fucking idiot Darby Allin is with his body, he's the only one of the 'four pillars' that hasn't caused Tony Khan any shit, ignoring any allegations* and relating strictly to backstage / in match stuff. From MJF having his backstage hissy fit and taking his ball home, to Jack Perry Vs CM Punk and now Sammy being a daft bastard. *Insert expected Tony Khan ignoring allegations gag
  7. Joe's face there looks like Ian's picture of Snowglobe Sting.
  8. Seeing that picture, I now want Hangman and The Butcher to team up as a new version of the Smoking Guns. Just fine gentlemen and I'm sure they will have smashing blouses on should they do it.
  9. Cody 'Maury' Rhodes is the replacement for Cena that they have been seeking for years. There is absolutely nothing they can do to slow his support down. I would even say if he lost to Roman he wouldn't lose the momentum and support.
  10. If we are picking holes in the Hangman / Swerve segment for not making sense, then we need to talk about pretty much every aspect of wrestling in existence. Seems like nit picking for nit pickings sake. Sting being lowered from the rafters like a sack of shite was brilliant. Just a massive nostalgia moment that is exactly what people want. Fantastic stuff.
  11. Sorry Tony, interchange 'this thread', with the Dynamite / Rampage / Collision / Raw / Chippy Tea threads.
  12. People hold Punk to a different standard depending on who he works for. Always have, always will. The AEW lot were Punks biggest fan when he came back, WWE fans hated him. When he left AEW and went to WWE, the wind changed and the AEW lot hated him and WWE fans love him. You can see it going back in this very thread in fact. Punk is an enigma. He will never be compared with the likes of your Johnny Kickpads or the stars of the 90's. You either love him, or you hate him and people flip flop between the two interchangeably.
  13. Feels very much like a points scoring exercise for the age old AEW Vs WWE debate, similar to when allegations of AEW wrestlers came out. Nothing to do with genuine concern for the victims, just online one up-man-ship.
  14. Gone are the days when trolling just meant asking Mr Park Ji-Sung for Yorkie Terrier meat.
  15. I forgot to mention how much of a joy the pre-show match was, purely for the fact of how over Indi Hartwell was. Waiting for the hot tag and then it finally happening was brilliant. She was absolutely loving the reaction she got and it was heart warming to see. Yeah, I couldn't see shit. My seat was facing one of the corners so one of the pillars were completely blocking pretty much the whole ring. Ended up moving after the pre-show, but this is what my view was initially.
