it was funny to see darkstar. it's too bad there isn't a thread for talking about people who used to post here and those who still do, the fight island universe, without other requirements. in a place like that, posters could get voted on during 'matches' against eachother, and there could be cards and championships posted. it's not quite an e-fed because it's based on your regular posting popularity with other posters and you don't do promos or anything like that. you just exist. It would be called a popularity promotion. I'll never create the 'popularity promotion' since it's against the wishes of the moderators.

We've heard stories, and we've heard that he may have said similar things in the truck that WWE may actually have recordings of, but I don't recall there being anything like that on the one instance of Kevin Dunn headset audio we have.

I could be mistaken, and considering your reaction, I probably am. But I somehow remember the leaked production audio from the early NXT had him making poo poo comments about the women, specifically how they look.

ROCK HARD
This is by Alex Greenfield, former WWE writer

quote:

Case in point, one of the big rubs on KD: he’s a misogynist influence on the product. I can tell you this is absolutely true and I learned it almost from jump street. One of the long term stories I’m most proud of from my time at WWE was being the principal producer on the Trish Stratus/Mickie James “Single White Female” story. There’s no humble in the brag when I say we grabbed the audience by the throat by a couple weeks into the angle and our quarter-hour ratings bore that out.

The first time we were given a crossover segment because the story was getting over, KD fought it tooth and nail. He fought us every week. Show was heavy? KD wanted to cut Trish/Mickie. “Temple of Trish” segment? KD argued that we needed more action and people would get bored. Lesbian kiss? “Trish has gotta like it!” Every single element, he wanted both protagonist and villain to be sexier and stupider.

Perhaps the following scene will be more instructive. You are on the WWE corporate jet. Imagine every rock star plane in any movie: four captain’s chairs facing each other in the front. Behind them, two benches facing each other across the aisle on which are crammed the writers. The captains? Vince, KD, Michael Hayes, HHH (Steph was on maternity leave, of Hayes would have been on the bench). We’re flying back from TV after taping one of the early WWECW shows. Kelly Kelly has just been introduced as the domestic [violence] partner of Mike Knox.

Hayes: She just feels cold, you know? She’s not connecting. Vince: Mm. She needs to find her sensuality.

KD hops up and down in seat with sniggering laughter in that “Hey, boss, pay attention to me” way. Vince turns to him.

KD: She NEEEEDS to find some TITS!

KD continues to snicker, eyes on Vince, begging for approval. Vince snorts. Conversation continues.

This kind of thing? The tendency to present women as only softcore objects? Those conversations came every single day, and KD was the WORST about pissing on any serious woman’s program.

SCJerk is mad about Cody going over.

quote:

LMFAO, this is hilarious, sorry but there's no jerk thread for this event
This is legitimately hilarious, this is a company who's big selling point was "WE LISTEN TO THE FANS", and they completely forgot that WCW tried that with Russo and failed
Regardless, can't wait for Cody to lose the title at the next PPV because fans complained he wins to much
Only for them to complain Cody loses too much
Only for him to win the title again at the next PPV
Only for the fans to complain that the title feels like a hot potato
Only for Cody to hold the title for a long time until the fans start to say that Cody is boring
Only for him to turn heel.
Which would be great.
But also, he wins too much so...he would lose the title.
And then he would beat some young up and coming face.
And the fans would complain he buries young talent
And then he will start losing.
But then.... "Cody losses too much, he doesn't feel like a serious threat"
Only for him to start winning again
Rinse and repeat

Not sure if this is the hot take they'll be running with as currently they're preoccupied with being really mad at Cody and making dozens of posts comparing him to Jeff Jarrett so we'll see what they eventually settle on.

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.

they've also gone hard on how Hana Kimura being bullied mercilessly to the point of not being able to take it and people being against it is literal hypocrisy aaginst how they treat WWE and verging very close to not caring about Hana in the process because "and yet you are part of society" i am smrat dickheads

Talking with my friends who aren't hardcore committed to either AEW or WWE wrestling we pretty much agreed its down to what kinda brainworms you got. I know I got the AEW brainworms. I think they're ok. But there are people that like their WWE brainworms. I don't get them. And I think you end up with a false equivalency if you try to compare the two.

TBH I thought the Shad Gaspard tribute with ocean background was kinda iffy so I could see people who are really sensitive about drowning not being real happy about the water spots either.
