You've got to admit, you are kind of implausible

That was Chris Kreski, and he's the unsung hero of that era of the WWE. He was behind basically all of their best stories at the time and the WWE is never going to acknowledge him.

Because he desperately seeks to be the center of attention to foster his low sense of self-worth.

He was feuding with AJ Gray a couple of days ago and it was honestly kind of sad.

I've noticed Rov tries to start poo poo, then attacks journos like Bix, and etc. for not covering the poo poo he's dragged up. He's just trying to get validation as someone who has the news, but "They" don't want to cover it. Ignore him.

Maybe it's just me but by posting about you know who, we're giving him the validation and attention he craves, which is what prompts him to start his Twitter slapfights in the first place. So if we just ignore him then he won't get the rush he craves from knowing people are talking about him, so let's quit putting his hot takes and Twitter feuds in here is basically what I'm saying :)

"If I lose I will set myself on fire."
If you say rovert three times in front of a mirror he'll get mad at Bix for no reason.
I tried it out it worked.

E: Also: I doubt our mockery will make him feel validated at all. And if it does more power to him, he can get full of himself, have a weird meltdown eventually and get banned off twitter too.

Yes he was the guy booking the stuff from like 2000 - 2002. The Attitude Era Podcast covers him extensively.

just head writer from jan to aug of 2000, he was demoted because steph and hunter nixed the story bit where steph leaves hhh for angle which was also the time steph was promoted to head of creative

AJ Gray and some other indie wrestler laughing because they thought Rovert was in a wheelchair was super lovely. No matter what you think of Rovert.

None of those posts make any sense tbh. I'm sure he is maybe trying to say something coherent in his head but, like, it just reads like schizophrenic vagueposting to anyone who isn't privy to his internal narrative.

I think you're talking about Ryan Ward who also booked the good Era of Smackdown in 2016 that ended with ramp snake in 2017.

yeah, Ryan Ward was the NXT head writer until 2016, at which point he became head writer of Smackdown until 2017, at which point he was lost in the shuffle amongst the Raw writers

still a really good writer, not least because Smackdown from the second half of 2016 to around Mania 33 was imo the best wrestling show in the world at the time

Wrestle Kingdom 10 was 2016 so it will always be a high point for NJPW in my mind, but even I will admit I started losing interest in the promotion as the year progressed.

The eternal cycle of WWE: it's funny the first time, then it has all possible enjoyment extracted from it and ground into a rough, dry powder, and then the guy turns out to be a sex criminal.

It was the beginning of Okada's big record breaking reign, so the top of the card remained consistently great, but that was the year the middle to bottom of the card started to really show signs of neglect.

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.
