yeah really weird and racist to compare two Mexican wrestlers signed to the same promotions and famous for their work rate

There seemed to be two lines of thought - how he would have liked Andrade to go back to more of a La Sombra thing than something more in line with his WWE gimmick, and him talking about the relative value of 'workrate' wrestlers who rely on their in-ring work to get over versus promo skills or whatever else. Maybe a third line of thought about "WWE castoffs" since he was spending a lot of time comparing Murphy/PAC/Andrade to one another, and Fenix was included as both a masked luchador and someone who Meltzer consistently describes as one of the most spectacular workers in AEW/the world.

You'll hit your head and say: 'Boy, how stupid could I have been. A moron could've figured this out. I must be a real dimwit. A pathetic nimnal. A wretched idiotic excuse for a human being for not having figured these simple puzzles out in the first place...As usual, you've been a real pantload!

Seems to me that when a guy debuts and claims to be the "face of Latinos" you would naturally invite comparisons to other Latinos.

maybe Dave can explain to me the difference between Mexicans and Puerto Ricans again and then tell me how one cares about Bad Bunny and one doesn't but then also New York Mexicans and Los Angeles Mexicans are different, y'know except do it for Cardi B.

It's hardly racist when wrestling promotions have historically and continue to try to make stars out of ethnic minorities to appeal to specific audiences. WWE's been trying to find the next Rey Mysterio for how many years? Dave's stated several times that wrestling draws a large Latinx audience, it makes sense that any company would try to create a breakout Latinx star to cater to those fans. If you want to get more granular, since the Latinx population skews younger in age, it makes all the sense in the world that a promotion like AEW that's trying to appeal to younger people would try to have a star that checks those boxes.

It ultimately doesn't matter if the promotion is being as ethical and anti-racist as possible, the advertisers and the demos pay the bills and those demos are broken up by age, ethnicity, income, etc.

I have to reiterate, in 2019 I was in the DR 15 days for work and the only thing I watched was the music video channel, Bad Bunny had like 9 videos in full rotation and I saw all of them multiple times a day.

the only time I didn't see Bad Bunny or Daddy Yankee was when I used my work laptop to watch Triplemania so Sammy and Scarlett could talk about lizard people from the hollow Earth and then Blue Demon Jr hit Dr Wagner Jr with a cement block to take his hair extensions

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.

Get him fat and easily blown up is absolutely the strategy I would use if I had to fight Mayweather. I mean, he'd still beat my rear end in seconds, but at least he might be breathing a little heavier afterwards.

I see you don't understand why registering a few days ago then immediately going in on someone can be seen as you've probably been here before lol

As someone that has accused someone of being a re-reg before and learned my lesson after it was pointed out how wacky I sounded all I'll say is this: If you're not, lurk more before you start immediately hating on one of the forum's most controversial people

We're trying a new thing here called Corrective Behavior where we tell people why their posts are bad instead of just chasing them off. Your posts are bad because you've come in from Day 1 trying to start arguments in almost thread you've posted in. That's bad, and hopefully you realize that sooner rather than later. Post more about the things you enjoy and less about the things you hate

posting "hey I liked blank match" 20 times is boring as gently caress discussion. it's not my fault saying I don't like Tommy end sets some of you off. this sounds like you're just trying to shutdown critique of things you like and want to only come here for affirmation about the fake fighting you enjoy which is so incredibly lame, I will never reply to you again or read a single word from you after this. be well.
