I decided to check out Elgin v Cage and the video package had me sold. The match was bad and it was entirely Elgin. Content: https://twitter.com/RobertONeill31/status/1194697880663134209?s=20

Yeah people are pushing a narrative that ACH isn’t mentally well which is something I see when POC get justifiably angry at their treatment. It’s racist and I don’t care for it.

I get why there's an instinct to be concerned, because he does seem like something more than "pissed," but we can't put ourselves in his shoes and it seems like this was brewing for over a month before he went public, so yeah, nobody should be jumping to conclusions.

SatoshiMiwa posted:Also staying in a place that encourages racism and getting help from said place is really not good for mental health either When you really think about what we know or can easily infer, it's pretty obvious why he would be a wreck: He was taken off all bookings after the week where the shirt design went live. There was reportedly an injury in there, and not an especially major one, but he...went back to Texas and wasn't at the PC, where the WWE doctor and physical therapy team are. Huh? One of the ideas behind the the PC was that as more and more talent was based in Orlando, they'd all have easy access to the company medical care. And he knew that Triple H had insisted on the shirt for some (racist?) reason even as at least one of his lieutenants (Road Dogg) was trying to at least gently nudge him towards putting the design on a light colored shirt. Oh, all while one of the coaches was "the most racist person in WCW," Terry Taylor. Sounds stressful!

SatoshiMiwa posted:Yeah going back to work with Terry Taylor after having a shirt like that designed sound 100% awful and stressful After some occasion where I mentioned Terry Taylor's rep as a lovely person—without specifically mentioning the racism—a female wrestler who had worked for him a good bit reached out to me. She said that while she knew he had a bad rep, Taylor had always been wonderful to her, and she also mentioned that he had become a born-again Christian at some point, to boot. After a few messages back and forth, I explain that it had become a hotter topic of conversation after the (since-disappeared from the internet) Steve Ray podcast calling him the most racist person in WCW, how I had known about it for years from researching the WCW lawsuits, etc. And then...she just never replied after that. I let it sit for a day or two, at which point I had an epiphany in lieu of following up. "Oh! Wait a second, she wasn't talking about his reputation for hating black people. She was actually talking about his other bad rep, for sexually harassing young women in the wrestling business. And she had no idea I was talking about something else. Oof." Is it possible that he genuinely had a religious awakening and realized the error of his ways? Sure. But it would have been since at least the Konnan lawsuit from when they were in TNA together, since he had similar issues there. I dunno if I buy that, and regardless, this one wrestler not getting creeped on or hearing him use the N-word doesn't change that much. Oh! And before I forget, he was also alleged to have provided painkillers to Konnan while working as his direct supervisor in TNA. Can't forget that one... davidbix fucked around with this message at 07:14 on Nov 14, 2019 |

Man, I don't know how I missed the Terry Taylor being a piece of poo poo stories. I guess I just never really hear his name come up all that often these days, or I'm just not paying attention to the place he works so I miss things.

Apparently whenever someone feuds with Becky and loses, they are more popular than they started feuding with her. Okay then.quote:This is such a dumb take. How did Lacey look bad, because she lost? How did Natalya look bad? How did Sasha look bad? Just because they lost? Are you insane? This makes literally 0 sense. LACEY was a nobody before Becky how the gently caress did she not look better? DAFUQ? Natalya was doing nothing for months and before that was Ronda's sidekick, Natlaya then got a big 4 PPV match in a hot match. How does that make Natalya look worse? Sasha was gone for 4 months and was stale as F before facing Becky. Sasha after the feud was the first women drafted to SD. How does Sasha look worse? You are bitching because Becky didn't lose but loved the Asuka beat everyone like a hypocrite. Becky is still over and that's why she's still champ. What do you not understand? Please tell us how you would've book Becky feuds? Have her lose every week? If it was up to you marks you wouldn't have anyone be champ for more then 2 months. Becky just beat Ronda, she's not losing the title that easy. This is such a load of bullshit. Lacey,Natalta and Sasha all looked like stars facing Becky. Kairi just had her best main roster match 2 weeks ago. Let me guess she was buried because she didn't beat the champ clean? Piss off!! Context: People are angry over the Charlotte/Becky vs Kabuki Warriors TLC match, and how its likely going to end (Charlotte and Becky winning the titles). I mean it's really not hard to understand why people are angry either. WWE Main Roster does a terrible job of making the people who lose to their top stars look good afterwards. My favorite part is how this guy claimed that Sasha was even hotter after her feud with Becky...nevermind the fact that their feud was something like 90-10 in Becky's favor, and all it did was make Sasha look like a loser at the end of it and killed all of her momentum.

Joey is a pretty good wrestler and an absolutely amazing talent scout in a way that few others are. Dude doesn't seem to have a lot of prejudice about what does and doesn't work in a wrestling ring and is the reason someone like Marko got his break. 1000% of the Janela hate is that he has a soft body but I don't know what else you want from someone who plays (and pretty much is in real life) a hard drinking and smoking Jersey scumbag.

At last November's GCW show in Asbury Park Joey went up and down the staircase to buy beer at the bar no less than five times during the show. After he'd already had a couple pre show. This was during the time he was on crutches. Joey is cool.
