This is a fabrication, Bayley is very good on Up Up Down Down, the only WWE show worth watching. (Also on NXT TBH)

When both Jericho and Batista were on their way out of certain runs with WWE, it became incredibly clear that they stopped giving a poo poo about consequences and it was loving amazing.

But Daniel Bryan on Talking Smack was even better.

I don't really care about social media and believe it should honestly be shut down by any sane government for the benefit of public health, so Corbin doesn't bother me at all except he hasn't been in a feud that went for the right amount of time ever. If the Honly Tonk Man's, or Rick Rude, or Razor Ramon or some other midcard heel's feuds had all lasted several months each I can't imagine anyone would remember any of them fondly. Baron Vs. Kallisto is the only feud I can think of him having that was enjoyable on any level and it was pretty brief.

Twitter is largely a terrible place but wanting governments to shut it down may actually be the first time I actually heard someone suggest something that sounds like it might be a first amendment violation. Maybe? I'm not sure.

This is a weird take because everybody in the pre-Monday Night Wars period, when there were just 4 PPVs a year, had several months long feuds

I wouldn't know I started watching wrestling in 94 or 95

And I just believe humanity will never be able to grow well in a world with social media. There has to be a method of silencing voices that are always harmful (conservatism etc) a quality life for all isn't possible if they are allowed to speak. I think what Baron does on social media is just stupid and bait just trolling, things like that also could very well be silenced.

I guess without social media AEW wouldn't be able to exist so I don't know. I'm not an intelligent person on any level which is obvious to everyone here anyway.

I don't remember this. Was it a Shane episode? If so, I blame Shane :colbert:

Just overall. Whenever she was out there she just seemed lost and not really able to speak casually in the way that everyone else seemed to on TS. Even Baron Corbin was pretty decent. One really underrated skill of Renee's is prompting people to respond genuinely by being genuine herself (as much as one can be in a WWE environment) but it never clicked with Bayley. Maybe she's gotten better recently though.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

The phrase “it’s just a cough” is such a weak mindset. You are ok with what happened, losing, imperfection of a craft. When you stop getting angry after losing, you’ve lost twice.

There’s always something to learn, and always room for improvement, never settle.

in california it costs 9 million zenis to see the doctor, only way Dave can afford it is to fight in the Strongerst Under The Heavens RollerDerby Tournmanet.

b-, maybe a c+. too easy. need to replace "losing" with "coughing" and "craft" with "body." see me after class.
