lol why do ppl tweet dumb poo poo at cody and then delete it when he responds like do they not realize he regularly responds earnestly to stuff like that

He actually responded to Cody with a big tirade about Orange Cassidy and Brandi and WCW and Tony Khan, then he got worried about getting "doxed by AEW fans" so he protected his account. His twitter also had like a million posts about the Premier League being corrupt and retweeted takes about Kylie Rae.

I know that's why it's a bad opinion but it rules that he not only picked old guys but Raven and Dreamer who have both done creative before.

Younger guys like 55 year old Raven & 49 year old Tommy Dreamer & 52 year old Taz. Guys who've been around wrestling since for over 3 decades.

I'm not interested in constructive criticism, believe me.
to be fair, it's probably equal parts wrestling like tommy dreamer and being tommy dreamer inbetween wrestling like tommy dreamer

I'm a little heated but let me explain further, since most of the posters here are white: to a person of color in America the Confederate flag is the equivalent of the Nazi flag. Please don't post that stuff and the people that worship it here.

Okay, I didn't actually visit his Twitter page. I thought I was losing my mind that I had somehow missed a big honking Confederate flag on this page.

No problem, I'm not mad at anyone. Stuff like this happens, people may not have seen the flag initially and just looked at the text of the tweet. Thanks for being so responsive!

i'm sorry for posting my dumb emote face. i never really thought about the consequences of linking a profile like that here because of the intent behind it being to collectively deride whatever they were saying. i shouldn't have needed to read the posts about it to start nodding along that being made to view a symbol of hatred for you is unacceptable no matter the context. i think your post will help little jesters like me to avoid unintentionally raising such alarm, discomfort, anger, or any combination of those in our posting family. thanks

"WWE fans lack patience for long-term storylines."

Summer of Punk lasted 9 days. That wasn't the fans' fault.

--

Sidebar: WWE lacks patience with their own loving creations. Yeah, we have The Fiend, but at The Horror Show at Extreme Rules: The Horror Show, it was Swamp Wyatt, not The Fiend or Super Happy Fun Time Bray Wyatt that wrestled. At the end of Matt Hardy's latest run, Broken Matt disappeared and 1998-1999 Matt was the one getting poo poo on by Randy Orton. What story are they telling here? "Matt's healed, so he's normal again just in time for us to let him go"?

I have no idea what these people see in The Fiend. I get why people like things I’m obviously not the target demo for. I get why kids like John Cena. Fiend fans are a mystery to me.

Looks like he deleted the tweets so here's screenshots and the punchline:






There are tweets I expect to get deleted because they are kind of racist or horny or threatening but when Fiend fiends can't stand behind The Fiend it's a sad day.

I really liked the build up of the Fiend but his matches suck and he comes off like a very creative guy who is a terrible fit for modern weekly wrestling.

The Fiend would be a million times better in AEW because they'd actually put some effort into his video production. And that's not saying "The Fiend should go to AEW" because I don't want that.
