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.
Ivelisse must've sent out her feelers and realised that WWE doesnt want her because shes too old and that shes blacklisted from everywhere else.

Will Ric Flair show up tonight to manage 2.0 against Sting & Darby and form some sort of insane faction acting as manager for 2.0 and Garcia? Flair obviously is a trash person but I imagine we see him in AEW at some point. Flair was featured in the stuff building to the match on Road To, and can you imagine the promos Flair and 2.0 would do together?

I don't know about these things, but people were talking like Flair is under a non-compete, but those are impossible to enforce in Mexico.

I’m pretty sure Flair’s getting me too’d in a couple weeks, if I am aware of this Tony has to be so I think signing him now is a mistake. Maybe people just won’t care when the dark side of the ring episode drops though, but it’s a lot worse than anything else anyone at AEW has ever been accused of so maybe they will.

I keep seeing people post about that and totally forgot about it when I made my post, but you're probably right. Or hopefully are, at least.

“My higher goal has always been to shed light on anything that could improve women’s wrestling in any way, shape, or form,” Ivelisse said. “So I do feel that a big reason is, again, just because I’m a female, they feel the freedom to just, you know, pick me apart, etc. It seems to be a trend that seems to be trending. Because it hasn’t been just me, it’s been other females as well. Any female that starts blowing a bunch of steam or whatever, somehow, someway they want to find a way to, to bring them down, drag them down or whatever.

“Well, see, unfortunately, the thing is that on the women’s side, there’s so much improvement that needs to happen,” Ivelisse said. “Because unfortunately, the cattiness crap from high school still happens in women’s locker rooms. And the thing is that a lot of males are in positions of power, and then they just roll their eyes anytime something happens, like ‘oh, it’s just girls being girls.’ Like, dude, no, no. That’s why I feel it’s so imperative to put such importance to female veterans because they’re the ones who, first of all, have gone through stuff and have earned the right to be able to impose any kind of, you know, rules to make more order within the environment. Not so they can feel powerful, or whatever, for the improvement of the environment; number one. And for better efficiency out there in the ring.

Same, especially since her immediate response to getting dropped by AEW was to basically accuse Thunder Rosa of sleeping with AEW management.

It's genuinely insane to me that signing him is on the table with that hanging out there (and, you know, the general details of that incident being well known), but I guess he's been around the wrestling industry forever so people will try to get away with using him until they can't anymore. At this point I fully expect him to get signed; who knows what the fallout will end up being

gently caress all this lol, you lead a group of adults by demonstrating the ability to lead and take initiative on doing poo poo people don't want to do because leadership (at the levels of trying to gel a unit of disparate elements rather than like, "leadership" in a corporate sense) usually involves tedious poo poo that you take on doing because you want a project to succeed and that's the kinda poo poo that motivates you. it's easy to see that Thunder Rosa works her god damned rear end off to make anything she's involved with and all the people too look fantastic, that's why she's going to be a leader, not because someone up a chain says she is. Ivelisse sounds like the worst type of loving climber/power broker, bleh.

Ric Flair is currently trending on Twitter because of a picture of a man that looks like him (but probably isn't actually him) going down on a woman on a plane or train. Draw your own conclusions about whether people will be shocked by the details of the plane ride from hell.

i hope to return to AEW after that unfortunate misunderstanding, except the misunderstanding is people don't realize i'm right about everything and they need to do what i say all of the time

She already is a leader. She owns Mission Pro, an all-women promotion. Imagine trying to big league that just because you had a cup of coffee in WWE.

benoit would be a 10, grizzly, just worst of the worst. A five would probably be someone like that moron q anon NXT guy who was fired because he's inherently an evil person but has no power to move the needle in any way he's just some weak little goofy dipshit, a 1 would be like Punk or Ivelesse but it's just a figure of speech to say she isn't some kind of evil person because she's narcissistic and fucks up her own career. she's not worth the level of vitriol in my opinion so it confuses me.
