That's why a lot of Memphis regulars hated Jarrett but it was somewhat common for those who didn't work there to act like Memphis wrestlers couldn't work and would just brawl and bleed.

Do they... do they think that if the tickets on the secondary market don't sell then the people who bought them originally get their money back or something?

To be fair, if the demand stays that low, the scalpers are going to catch on eventually.

Good, then people who actually wanted to go to the show can get the tickets for themselves!

Bix makes the Muppet show analogy. quote:This is a most falls in the TV time remaining match. It is a goofy match format that is going to show up a bunch on these sets. Memphis TV show was really straight forward in presenting itself as a TV show. This wasn't a taped wrestling show in a studio but rather a TV show with a set format announced at the beginning of each show. Time had been set aside for interviews, individual matches, etc. Often times guys gently caress up the format as guy will interrupt something that had been set aside for something else. Lance Russell is stuck in position of put-upon Kermit the Frog trying to run a smooth TV show if it wasn't for these crazy Muppetts. I love Memphis more than most and Dave can be an absolute idiot on Twitter, but he's not remotely in the wrong here and Dutch is being deliberately obtuse.

This is a really popular meme among the anti-AEW crowd. None of the shows are "real" sell-outs because you can find tickets on the secondary market. Of course, if we apply this same approach to WWE and Impact Wrestling shows, something very interesting happens.

there are plenty of homophobes still in wrestling somehow but the backlash against not being called "wrestler" is incredibly well-defined and it's not this. i don't know the story on why that tweet was made tho

So after one of his matches at the Super J Cup, El Phantasmo called Will Ospreay 'the autistic assassin'. Suffice it to say, most folks were pissed off at him for that (because there's a difference between good heel work and being an ableist rear end in a top hat) but of course: https://twitter.com/millipedeman24/status/1165913016011018241?s=09 https://twitter.com/millipedeman24/status/1165914080655433728?s=09 https://twitter.com/millipedeman24/status/1165938482247798784?s=09 Twitter was a mistake

El Phantasmo's Wiki vandal posted:Vigier grew up in Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Canada. He graduated from Westview Secondary School in 2004. He graduated from the Art Institute of Vancouver with a diploma for digital film and video program in 2006. He would help design event posters, intro videos, and individual match screens for ECCW. From 2010 to 2017, he was an animatic editor for Bardel Entertainment.[citation needed] He is very disrespectful, and apparently his parents did a terrible job of raising him. lol
