WWE fans are mad at the independent contractor who caught Coronavirus but aren’t mad at WWE continuing to run live shows. There are no loving words. Vincels are beyond parody at this point.

Sadly, this is reflective of the wider discourse about coronavirus. I see way more people getting mad at the idiot who goes and sits in the park with his friends than the ghoulish company who makes their workers show up to the warehouse every day without PPE despite not being an essential business at all.

I can't get over the scare quotes around "essential" when talking about grocery stores. Does he think that WWE is somehow more necessary than food? Alan's tweet brought out a lot of idiots but the rest are mostly "b-b-but AEW!!!"

I've seen WWE fans sincerely say that WWE is an essential business because it helps with people's mental health. Lol

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.

1996 NBA draft is my favourite because you get the top 6 and then a whole lot of nothing before mvp city at 13 and 15.

you can argue that for literally everything though; that's the thing.

I play sports in the summer (usually Cricket but when I lived in London last year I thought I'd give Baseball a try and that was great fun) and really from January through the end of March one of the things that keeps me going is knowing that the Cricket season is around the corner and I'll be back playing again. Should the cricket clubs therefore be playing then? After all, helpful for my mental health!

Runners are the worst for this, there was a dude in the running thread here last week bragging about how the French government have apparently asked runners to limit how far they're running (around 5 miles a day) and he ran over double that distance that day. Gotta keep in shape for all those races that aren't happening!

Here in Washington we're under a shelter-in-place, but the governor encouraged people to go out and exercise as long as they limit their time outside. So of course the running trails are loving jampacked all day.

I had no desire to take him out of context, so better safe than sorry. Even if the context changes very little, IMO. What ACTUALLY happened is that he took Rachel in the most literal way possible with no wiggle room, and he was still compelled to tweet what he tweeted. Even if it had threaded correctly, the substance of his tweet doesn't really change.

It’s also very clear that he is strategically deployed to do damage control for WWE now despite NoT wOrKiNg FoR tHeM like dropping the Coronavirus story with an “everything is fine” WWE statement very shortly after Fightful reported it. Weird how Ryan Huckabee Satin was ready to go within the hour of Fightful uncovering it even though it was known in the company for over a week.

I mean what journalists besides maybe that annoying dude in canada that used to make vince mad on his show actually call WWE out when they get a shot? When HHH was on WOR Bryan Alvarez spent the one question he got to ask asking Hunter about some bizarre angle that he didn't even remember it was embarrassing. Real journalists don't give a poo poo about wrestling and the wrestling journalists are all too big of fans to ask hard questions outside of their echo chambers.

bix and dave?

asking Paul a hardball question in an interview or during a financial call accomplishes literally nothing. he'll just give a smarmy non-answer or ignore it entirely, and block that publication from ever having an opportunity to do it again. do you honestly believe dave doesn't grill Paul with questions about Saudi Arabia because he's such a big fan of the King of Kings?

Especially knowing that Sean ran with it today because it was the first time he laid eyes on the actual memo. (Also, Ryan appears to have unintentionally compromised the anonymity of whoever got sick, too.)

Yeah, when you're limited in the amount of questions you can ask there's no point wasting that time with a question you know you're not going to get an answer to.

Satin’s version of events included a bunch of identifying information you could run back didn’t it? (On-air perform who was not a wrestler and the timeline of events all allow a sufficiently motivated person to try and identify and those were all Satin from what I remember)

Satin’s acting as the voice of WWE’s attack dog machine. When he talks about AEW he only does so in negative tones. The praise WWE in quarantine and vilify AEW for doing a safer version of the same thing really brought it to the forefront.

Maybe Im speaking out of turn on SRS but he’s def one of the voices that always veers towards positive during WWE social media time.

Well I will say if it wasn’t for SRS, WWE would have buried the positive COVID case forever. Other news outlets are picking up on it which has a possibility of dinging the stock price next week.
