Or did I read a fake update somewhere. Nope just saw that you're right, for some reason that tweet didn't show up on my timeline, the one about the incidents did. Which makes me feel much better about the situation. Maffews work has always been great and considering the whole fan on the internet personality Tony had when he wanted to get involved and how much the wrestlers seem to enjoy Botch, it would have been shit for it to get canned by AEW. Â Edit: I think my Twitter is bust, the Maffew mentioning AEW taking his videos down tweet is showing as 1 day ago, but going into his page it's clearly 3 and there's a ton of tweets since then. God I hate technology. Â Â Edited May 4, 2021 by Shy Dad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike newspapers, retractions are made using the same media, same font size, same urgency etc. yet are somehow far easier to ignore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members I Bent My Wookie Posted May 4, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted May 4, 2021 It has been interesting to read that it's affected a ton of content creators as well as the AEWs own accounts too. Quite a few have had strikes at the same time that could really mess their channel up. Seems a mess from a creator standpoint when AEW seemed to like the work they did.

Kamaras-Tash Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Aye, its Youtube auto detecting stuff and issuing copyright strikes. It happened a while back with a few tech Youtubers having their pages struck and demonetized etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Their algorithm sucks, not long back it was demonitising anything remotely LGBTQ for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jesse Posted May 4, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted May 4, 2021 I'm not sure if they exist any more, but for a while at least there were companies going round copyirght claiming stuff that wasn't there, then approaching the original owner and saying "Hey, we stopped a bunch of people using your copyright, and you can sign up with us to get the money from it" with them retaining a 'fee' for doing it. It was an absolute menace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRooster Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 On 5/2/2021 at 8:51 PM, Nick James said: AEW reportedly in advanced talks with Tessa Blanchard and Daga, all but a formality according to WhatCulture. Interesting signing if true, I would have thought AEW would have been the last company to sign Tessa, (especially with the Impact links) due to the reports of bullying and racism. https://whatculture.com/wwe/tessa-blanchard-and-husband-daga-heading-to-aew I'll believe it when I see it. I'd hazard a guess and say these rumours have originated from the people who stand to benefit from them most. Exploiting "prior issues" as serious as these to create a redemption arc doesn't sound like AEW at all. Heck, redeeming someone accused of racism, not least one who has faced allegations from your own roster, would be a very odd (and controversial) approach to take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Supremo Posted May 4, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted May 4, 2021 This is excellent pro-wrestling hype. I’m really hoping for stand-out performances from Santana and Ortiz. They look the business strutting around the streets in sunglasses. I wonder if the pre-recorded matches will still have the double ring set up? Feels like the type of setting someone like Fenix could take advantage of, pulling off some crazy, mind-blowing spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't the algo basically flag anything considered "controversial" regardless of context or if it is actually controversial or not? It seems to be a mess and if not for services such as Patreon I'm guessing a lot of small/mid level youtubers would have probably packed it all in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upvoted, but you could've warned me about the 4 minutes of QT Marshall's hackting at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Someone is supposedly ripping off the Penta gimmick and the real deal is just like "eh, if I'm inspiring someone then whatever". Nice lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members LaGoosh Posted May 4, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted May 4, 2021 Love stuff like that. I met Penta at a UK show once. He was absolutely lovely though had this incredibly intimidating aura about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
