Eh, while I do think that it was completely wrong of Gabe, I do think that TJP is a massive piece of poo poo and shouldn't be employed. Although he should still be paid if he is employed or hired for something.

In unrelated news:

Basic translation: Kairi has HFMD (Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease). She thinks she may have to go the hospital to have it checked out, although most cases tend to die down in 7-10 days.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

Japanese people a lot more closed off about their lives, but I don't THINK so.

On the other side of the coin Mio Shirai is about to have a second just a few years after retirement.

No. That being said, she could have been exposed to someone who had/has the disease as well. It can be spread through contact with an infected person.

quote:

Close personal contact, such as hugging an infected person
The air when an infected person coughs or sneezes
Contact with contaminated objects and surfaces, like touching a doorknob that has viruses on it, then touching your eyes, mouth, or nose before washing your hands

The thing about Kairi is that she'll take pictures with pretty much everyone and will hug/put her arm around anyone that asks for a photo.

I think it's pretty likely this will keep her out of the next set of NXT TV tapings (which are on Thursday). Because she'll remain contagious for up to a week after the fever breaks. And her tweet mentioned that it just went down fairly recently.

Reminder that a couple baseball players got that this season probably from meet-and-greets with grade school kids. It’s entirely possible the same happened with Kairi.

The Performance Center like a lot of gyms is a haven for disease.

Also, there's a lot of foreign talent flying home and back and stuff.

Wasn't he in training to be a producer/agent? Maybe it wasn't working out.

He's not retired-retired. Seems inevitable we will see another Hardy vs Hardy match in our lifetimes even though the only time it was fun was with the Broken Stuff.

I hope this leads to WWE also feeling obligated to include at least one British wrestler in the HoF each year for pandering purposes. At last Big Daddy will be in the REAL Hall of Fame. gently caress you, Dave!

It's idiots targetting individual workers as if they're the problem for taking the buttload of money WWE offers so they can actually have financial security. The problem isn't Ricochet or Dunne or WALTER signing. It's that WWE is signing literally EVERYone with no intention of actually using a big chunk of that talent, solely to play the zero-sum game with the indies and starve them. Which is also counter-productive for WWE, such that it's literally a bad idea from EVERY perspective. (WWE's wasting money and likely hurting their own future prospects because the Performance Center only knows how to turn out one kind of worker)

It's Smallman, Dallas, Gabe and Hunter than should be taking the brunt of this. The first three for being dumb enough to not realise that getting into bed with WWE is basically bending the knee and giving up any pretense of growing your own brand beyond the table-scraps they allow you to have until they just kill you. And the latter for not even having the balls to be honest about it. I feel like if you'd asked Vince in the 80s, he'd have been very, very open about what he was doing and cackled like the Mr McMahon character.

Yeah but I mean, I know it’s probably frustrating but you’re still a public figure and Ricochet is coming off like a ridiculous tool. Like just don’t respond in public if your only option is to come off that bad

Ricochet hasn't been as good a sycophant/company Mann on social media since Reigns left but that one's a pretty good effort from him. Bonus points for "trying something new", classic comedy

On a similar note, I had to shake my head when Trips was on one of the NXT media calls and was talking about telling Ricochet that he shouldn't be making his flips look so easy. Which is like... why did you even hire him? How do you miss the point so massively? (Then again, Vince apparently said they have a million guys who can do what AJ Styles does, which is demonstrably false. They have like 2)
