I mean Crush was basically that. His finisher was him crushing your head.

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.

I used to waffle back and forth between the cult vince created being really good or the wrestlers just dumb

But I’ve been in the wrestlers are just dumb camp for a while now, seeing clips of tommy end on twitch saying how much vince liked him and his ideas is just more icing on the cake

Speaking of Texas and double double e... latest Dark Side of the Ring was on Crave and... jesus loving christ! I heard some rumours from you goons that Jake the Snakes dad was a paedo but I didn’t think he was going for the Jimmy Saville prize. Last weeks episode on the warrior was a bit light, I felt, but not this week. loving sad and props to Jake for getting healthy and sober for a decade now. Go watch it if you can. Still laugh that all the wwe puff piece documentaries are as forgettable as the rest of their programming but Dark Side of the Ring mostly hits. gently caress Grizzly Smith and I wish him an eternity of wwe booking.

Aleister Black was going to kidnap Dominick. Also his look was meant to be Joseph Seed from Far Cry and not Garth Merenghi or David Koresh... I don't believe him.

A lot of this stuff needs an editor, but in general a spooky satanist doing weird poo poo but who also can and will kick your head off does have legs as a concept.

Lol, I just checked some wrestling news for the first time in a couple days, did WWE seriously fire Braun, Black, Buddy AND Ruby Riott? Fuckin' nuts. I hope to god Ruby makes it to AEW, she'll crush it there. Aleister would kill it in New Japan OR AEW. I think Braun would actually do great in New Japan or AEW as well, New Japan is good at booking Giants Who Can't Work That Well and Braun can work better than some the giants they've worked with in the past, and in AEW he'd be huge compared to almost all their roster. Buddy could crush it in New Japan's Junior's Division, but I feel like in AEW he'd just be another guy. Maybe Impact or ROH would be a better landing place for him?

I do think that we should stop making GBS threads on people who were essentially thrown out of a cult because they don't immediately condemn the cult leader, because the whole thing is structured for the middlemen to take the blame and if you're indoctrinated enough you'll start to believe that the leader is obviously good but he's also being screwed by his evil advisors much as you are and that's why bad things keep happening.

Tommy End is a cool chillbro, who cares if he didn't bury WWE on his way out. He's probably pretty financially secure and we're three months out from seeing him somewhere he can fulfill his potential. That's what's important. The entire wrestling world is his oyster, why waste time being bitter about garbage WWE people.

There is a difference between not trashing the company and the extremely pathetic "Vince loved me and loved my ideas!" after a guy has been fired.

Yep

Also lmao at the concept of “burning a bridge” with WWE when people from as high as Brock to as medium as Christian to as low as Carlito have not only actively pissed them off after being gone, but have still found their way back even despite it

Warrior pissed them off, while there, during two separate contracts and got a company award named after him

In fairness despite being a garbage person Warrior was over like rover so they were always going to want him, and the award was an opportunity to cash in on a dead legend so of course they were going to do it.

i mean shutting the gently caress up is also just an option. you don't have to poo poo all over the company but you also don't have to come out and speak as if Vince is some deity. you can simply just say nothing. which I wish 99% of wrestlers would do.

I don't think you can talk about your experience in WWE without talking about Vince at any point. He's kind of integral to the whole operation.

Also I see that it's that time again when goons insist against all reason that the person who keeps having great matches is actually super bad and can't wrestle.
