This forum has broken my brain, because now I automatically hear Dave saying "well he wasn't actually building anything out of straw, you know"

Think about the type of person to be a twitter follower of dolph loving ziggler. It’s cops all the way down.

There really is something so funny about people who work for the billion dollar wrestler company to get angry at the fans when they don’t lap up everything they sell.

if you convince yourself that the fans are to blame for not liking it or even making fun of it, and now even championing an alternative to a significant degree, then maybe you can sort of convince yourself that you're doing work that matters and fulfills you greatly

Seth at least sort of has an excuse in that, being one of the faces of the company, it's kinda expected of him to go to bat for the company. Ziggler has zero reason to do it other than deeply held personal beliefs.

whats especially crazy is, with his look and (at least competent) skillset, Ziggler could be a main eventer elsewhere, instead of uhhh *checks notes*

I don't think anyone even argued that Kofi shouldn't have lost to Brock, just that the way the match was laid out (if you can call it a match) was stupid and I know a good chunk agreed that the Fiend as champion was maybe not a sustainable idea (so don't put him in a title feud), and there's a difference between 'maybe wait a couple of months between running the same match again and rotate other guys in' and "EVERY MATCH MUST BE UNIQUE AND NEVER SEEN AGAIN LIKE TEARS IN RAIN"

And... making fun of planning cards in advance when the last PPV literally had 3 matches announced until the night before is so WWE it hurts.

Ziggler had the opportunity to leave years ago and prove himself as a top guy. He opted to stay and do jack poo poo.

That's what they consider a stacked show? Two mediocre matches, two guys who've been doing nostalgia appearances for the last 15 years and the only stars they have in the company going "face to face"?

I don't recall AEW at any point specifically saying "we're listing every match on the card because the other company doesn't!"

They just went out and did it. No calling attention to it, no being smug about it. They just did it. And the fans seem to approve.

It's such a minor loving quibble that I'm not surprised someone ingrained in the WWE machine is in an uproar over it.

I don't think there's any making fun of planning cards in advance. That tweet reads like someone who is on social media and gets an absurd amount of poo poo from crazy people for literally everything and made a not very good joke about it.
