The line about Julia was early 2000s PWG-bad and the one about Biles reeks of someone extremely ignorant of the dangers of a gymnast having the "twisties"

In conclusion: :gas:

the likelihood of anything other than AEW downplaying it and moving on is nil. either caster has a peripheral understanding of things and walked into context he didn't know was there or he made two really bad "jokes" knowing full well those that got it would hate him for it.

we're not getting an apology

Sammy issued an apology and was off TV for sensitivity training for saying he wanted to rape a woman. I think AEW will do something about it other than putting up the edited reupload of Dark.

3. COVID denialism, which doesn't need to be explained in how not funny it is.

4. Womens vaginas being ugly which I loving hate I had to write these words out loud.

It's irredeemably bad.
agree to disagree about a guy larping conspiracy theories for cheap heat being bad in the same way rape jokes are but you cannot seriously be implying saying vaginas smell is anything other than a toddler temper tantrum insult. You can argue that there's a possibility that Julia is being pressured into the storyline(people itt have already said that ignores her agency but i guess it's something) but saying "and your genitals are weird too" is a line too far is dumb unless you say it to like a trans person I guess.

I was very in to Lance back in the day, and would happily accept this but Gage->Juvi->Lance feels like a real weird de-escalation. I have no other suggestions besides someone from the Inner Circle, but all the labors so far seem far more physical than psychological.

they definitely misfired on gage's position, unless they have some kind of all timer for the 4th labor

In my fantasy the fourth labor would Jericho vs. Sammy, career vs. career match. Sammy wins, bam, surprise Jericho retirement, MJF gets extra heat, Sammy becomes an even more intense babyface. The actual end to this story ends up being Sammy triumphantly getting his win back over MJF. (I guess if Jericho "doesn't want to quit his job yet," you could also do a fun dumb "Sammy fights to get Jericho reinstated" stip)

I think it'd probably be too hard to nail the particulars of that story, though, so my second choice is for the fourth labor to be a Wardlow steel cage match. Set up a running bit where MJF repeatedly forces people to go through a series of challenges for him, and he always falls back on "Wardlow cage match" as his silver bullet despite it never actually working

(You could also do the Jericho-Storm match as career vs. career, force Jericho to retire his friend to give an old-timers match some gravitas)

Gage at 2 was a great move because the sheer "oh I guess there are no rules anymore and literally anyone or anything can show up" has been keeping me interested. That's gonna have limited returns because that only works for like two weeks but whatever.

Yeah, this is 100% correct. Spears made you think it was just going to be a Pinnacle gauntlet, and Gage completely blew that up. Juvi is interesting, but by putting him after the Gage ordeal, it’s less of a slam dunk even though we know it’s a slam dunk. I could’ve seen Storm in Juvi’s spot, but I don’t see them doing back to back history challenges.

Either way, I was not looking forward to five prominent Jericho singles matches at first, but now I’m in to see what’s next. Still fast forwarding through Judas though.

On the one hand, Tony’s able to recite the match history of any prominent wrestler from the last thirty years, so I find it hard to believe he doesn’t have a passive familiarity with what we’re major news stories from the last 20 years. On the other hand, he’s also devoted significant brain space to wrestler match histories, so maybe not.

Anyway, Max should have to annotate the references in his raps, and have some intern in Jaguars legal sign off on them before he gets to do them in front of people if the dude can’t recognize the line between heat and genuinely crossing a line at 32 years old.

My take on this whole thing is that there are some places you just don't go even if you're a heel and it's good they cut it out. As for why they didn't deal with this a week ago, hey sometimes you don't get the proper perspective until you have shitloads of people telling you you hosed up. I know there is a 0% chance that that will be an acceptable excuse for anyone here but that's how it is sometimes.
