I had to really wrack my brains to figure out who the 2 non-Christian and Matt Hardy WWE guys were. Karl Anderson only worked there long after I stopped paying attention so I completely blanked on it, and Jon Moxley feels like a completely different guy.

The saddest thing is they'll argue that AEW is made up of: 1) Ex-WWE people 2) People would couldn't make it in WWE So AEW is bad because its entire roster are people who were and were not in WWE

Kota not knowing who Vince McMahon is and high-fiving him did the trick.

The whole ex-WWE thing is dumb af if you look anywhere beyond the absolute surface. Even ignoring that they're doing a great job of pushing young talent, WWE was the single dominant company in the country (arguably the continent - I will admit I don't know how AAA or CMLL compare) for the better part of two decades. Of course anyone who isn't fresh out wrestling school has worked there. It's like complaining that someone did a Disney movie one time but even more ridiculous.

History Comes Inside! posted:Karl Anderson only worked there long after I stopped paying attention so I completely blanked on it I mean this in all sincerity. I read your post and thought,"Oh, Karl worked for WWE?" and was wracking my brain trying to think if he did it early in his career for a cup of coffee before going to Japan... and only then remembered that he literally worked there for the greater part of the last half-decade and I basically completely forgot all about it. He was at last year's Wrestlemania for gently caress's sake!

Wait... you're telling me that WWE got one of the hottest tag teams on the indies or in Japan, signed them up, and then proceeded to absolutely spaff their potential up a wall? Sorry, but I just don't buy it. That's just so out of character.

The only thing I remember about Good Bros in WWE is them acting like doctors while feuding with new day, which sounds like a funny talk n shop bit, but was WWE so it was painfully unfunny. Oh and they kept teasing bullet Club stuff but never pulled the trigger on it in the way I wanted.

You can safely argue that AEW is full of WWE castoffs. You can go full WWEbrain and say the people AEW hires are bad because WWE doesn't want them. But it all falls apart when WWE malmanagement sends directives to WWE contracted talent to text AEW talent and brag about what a great time they're having.

Some people are trying to spread the idea that Smackdown in Atlanta got canceled because of covid. https://twitter.com/Stone_ColdET/status/1416038133007781891 Only problem: This is the only website I can find as a source.. which buried that information in a caption for a picture. I can't find anywhere else reporting that Atlanta is going back to phase 1, and other events are still scheduled for the State Farm Arena. https://www.wsbtv.com/news/local/latest-covid-19-information-metro-atlanta/OUKSP2BNNRGOZLTYBTLK6BLHSY/

You can literally go anywhere for it. Hell, the city is even rolling out at-home vaccination services. NYC made it real easy after March to get everyone access to the vaccine. But then, you have this guy: https://twitter.com/MikeJ0nesssssss/status/1416087183384059907?s=20 We could have been over this thing, but they playing.

I don't think this take is dumb necessarily. If this actually happened I think it makes perfect sense that an MSG would blame lagging sales in vax/test requirements instead of, you know, high ticket prices or the lack of interest in WWE.
