I was under the impression she had no say or leverage in the role she played in the company during her time there. That isn't exactly uncommon a situation. If I was completely off the mark with that, I apologize completely and retract my original statement.

While I'm sure Maria didn't exactly have a ton of say in how she was used, they used her basically the way every other company uses Maria ever. Hot wife of a mediocre wrestler who helps him win matches by being hot is kind of her thing. That's not to pass judgment on the morality of that role, or whether using her that way is appropriate, but it's hard to say that NJPW used her all that differently or worse than anyone else does.

Every other company except WWE, who decided that the ideal use for her was as a woman so stupid and naive that she may actually have had a mental disability.

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.

There was a bit of victim blaming. He wasn't intentionally doing it, and it was kind of partially that he thought her phone was stolen rather than hacked, but I would be surprised it he didn't get some heat for the way he was presenting his argument.

I think he was more trying to explain the perspective the company might have.

At any rate, I thought it was Brad Maddox's poo poo that got hacked, not Paige's? I'm so out of the loop on the internet bone zone leak.

Dave and Bryan were saying her stuff was stolen which we know is not the case so they had bad info there.

I also get what Dave was doing, but he has some vocal detractors out there who love to jump on him. Rovert for example has already got something about it on his twitter.

I've banned several times there. Was kind of the thing you did back then. It was a troll board.

I only jump on Dave for bad reporting. Like him and Bryan telling people to google Paige's images, reporting Ivelisse's pregnancy a few weeks in without her permission etc. Little things like that.

After his death a box of plugged in, sparking surge protectors covers a wood panel which contains hundreds of broken CRT monitors, each containing sex tapes inside of him with Japanese wrestlers. Not hidden there out of shame, but because the tape trading scene died out.

Pre-merger I think too when Alvarez used to troll his own board. Odd that this is the counter attack for me saying Meltzer does a sloppy/inconsistent job journalistically. Rather than say defending how he reported something.

Him thinking it was stolen was pretty dumb but hopefully he will correct/retract when he's not all hepped up on PWG.

Trying to create a narrative that his main opinion is "It's a bad situation, feel bad for Paige, not sure what WWE will do but if they punish her and not Xavier/bring back Hogan it's a bad look."

All while avoiding the details of the tape. He was wrong about a key detail but the handling of the story was rather good until Bryan said to google it.

But me, Ichiban and the gang trolled the dumber posters on F4W ten years ago so that absolves Meltzer of "winging it" on the Paige deal.

Also let's wait for how long it takes Meltzer to report a Delirious friendly report about New Japan pulling talent from ROH's Wrestlemania weekend shows and the details why.
