CopywrightMMXI posted:I am genuinely unsure if Triple H’s press conference showing was due to arrogance or if he was intentionally given bad talking points and sent out to hang himself. He's worked his way to the top of a company where the culture is the show must go on no matter what horrific things just happened, it's pretty ingrained in him at this point and consequences are just a foreign concept. As for why he chose the "I haven't read it" lie specifically, he knows it implicates him but doesn't know how the media coverage will play out or if the case will go to discovery. He's afraid to condemn anything or claim that it's his first time hearing of any of the allegations because it might come back to bite him later if the truth comes out.

sleep with the vicious posted:0 discussion of Grant on today's WOR - in the wrestling news world this story is over, which is gross to me, a normal person lawyers aren't the messy gossipers that wrestlers are, and the legal system moves slowly in the us. the lawsuit is going to develop over the course of months/years instead of a timeframe that's ideal for a daily podcast

ChrisBTY posted:Is Dave ever much else than a gossip columnist? he's been doing it for a long time and has a lot of historical knowledge with data/numbers to back stuff up. most major promoters since the 80's were sources of his as some point. probably the most interesting parts of his show are when he's able to take something happening now and put it into historical context by comparing/contrasting it with similar incidents in the past (when people complain about certain modern wrestlers looking fake/choreographed, he likes to talk about how the non-mexican fans he knew growing up hated lucha because it was so fake, and the mexican fans he knew hated the us style because it was so fake). It's really a unique thing he offers because whatever biases he might have, he's the only guy from that era who attempts to tell the truth instead of just saying whatever is going to get them engagement for their podcast. Cornette has a reputation as being knowledgeable about that era but you can't learn history from someone who can't accept that the world has changed since then. little munchkin fucked around with this message at 15:16 on Feb 9, 2024 |

I listened to a few episodes of JR's podcast and one line that stood out to me was when he was talking about all the humiliating stuff that Vince made him do on tv for his own amusement, being forced to kiss his bosses bare rear end, etc. and the only criticism he was willing to give was that he didn't understand how any of that stuff was supposed to make money or sell tickets. Dude is a born bootlicker who will never say a harsh word at someone whose given him a paycheck, but at least he's consistent in his view that abuse is something that should be internalized and never dealt with or examined in any way.

Eat This Glob posted:how does vince's trainer have all the facts? and having all the facts, he's proud to be associated with the guy? sounds like a real sicko to me Crazy to think that a man who fills an 80 year old man up with steroids for a living might be of poor moral character.
