Kenny Omega is just a huge nerd about Japan in general.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

All this Kenny Omega vs Haruka talk, and nobody is mentioning that he also had a blood feud with Yoshihiko, (a mannequin)

He was signed for a bit to Deep South, but asked for his release because he hated DeMott/the environment/the pay. At least I think that's the story.

Dolph ziggler is really good he's just an idiot. Like if he was around in 90s wwf he'd be getting rave reviews and he'd be one of the more well behaved and intelligent guys around comparatively

Ah yes, the same thing that happened with Havok.

WWE doesn't understand RTs or Re-post Apps, kids. Just fave it and move along.

Gerry Briscoe. For real.

Sasha's Tumblr did the rounds on the newzsites the last few days.

Her Tumblr was great 12-18 months ago when she would shade Charlotte endlessly when they were on the outs with each other.

Yep.

I know he blocks everyone who is critical of Wes but I didn't know he posted abuse.

he deleted it, blocked me, and then posted one of those turn the other cheek bible quotes.

and tbf to Wes Briscoe, that really was a match no one looked good in. He's still bad and looks like a failed heavy metal bassist turn incompetent barista, though.

The one that wasn't fabricated by weirdos was a manual RT of a black friend making a comment about other blacks. Several of the "screenshot tweets" were made up and, like Sasha, the newzsites just took them and posted them. Others have followed it more closely than I have, but some of the fake ones are really stupid and I'm not sure why people bought in.

Gerry is a legit badass. He has had three strokes and he's still really active in everything. Especially recruiting from Colleges.

Lots of people in NXT pay attention but Gerry is who I've heard about the most. William Regal "famously" told off Prince Devitt for a in character anti-Japanese xenophobic tweet via a DM which Regal accidentally sent as a tweet.

I remember DH Smith asked Regal advice on how to succeed in wrestling. Regal advised he not sign with WWE straightaway and do Japan tours and wrestle in a bunch of countries in a bunch of styles to make himself the best rounded vet he could be.

And then he signed straightaway with WWE.

Well, he learned the hard way, and Regal will tell you sometimes that's how we learn best. David's doing okay at least.

Would you be my new best friends?

I don't know why it stuck with me, but one of the most endearing things I remember hearing from Regal was on a podcast (I think Austin's) when he pointed out that people can praise him all they want, and he HAS put in a ton of hard work, but he can never forget that pretty much what got him a lot of opportunities was the fact he is tall. He knows that he lucked out in that regard and it keeps him somewhat grounded, because there are plenty of people with just as much talent who worked just as hard who never got the opportunities he had because they were half a foot shorter.

I just found it refreshing I guess v:shobon:v

Regal is a wrestler's wrestler and I feel one of the reasons for that is it feels like he never had a period where he was bigheaded. The man understands humility, and it's what makes him a great promo, too. Just look at his promo before his showdown with Cesaro. It's a masterclass in evoking all kinds of emotions in a short, 80 second promo.
