Looking forward to the news when Cedric decides to re-sign with WWE for another decade because at least they didn't use their corporate social media presence to throw public insults at his wife for no good reason

If he felt compelled to say something, leave at the first two lines, at least that's just rebutting what she said, but the last part, true or not, just comes off as salty.

But yeah, I've been saying it for a while, there's a TON of talent in AEW that isn't even being used as jobbers on TV, they're just grinding out 3 minute squashes on the YouTube shows and I know, I KNOW people enjoy watching Dark/Elevation, but believe or not, people enjoyed watching Velocity and WWECW. I'm sure someone out there enjoys Main Event and 205 Live. At the end of the day, no wrestler wants to be working meaningless 4 minute matches on the internet with no upward mobility.

If we're honest, Tony needed to be more disciplined with the purse strings, not because they don't have the cashflow, but because he's ending up in the same situation as WWE: Massive roster but nowhere near enough TV time to feature them all, and for all the talk of cycling people in and out, that really seems to only happen to one or two people. Cody leaves to shoot his TV shows. Miro's taking a step back right now. But it's not like the Bucks or MJF are off TV to let Sonny Kiss or Emi Sakura have some time. And I'm not even saying you SHOULD take the Bucks or MJF off TV, but the problem is if you feature them every single week, that's at least 2-3 segments already spoken for. Which means fewer places for others to go.

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.

the insight i had is that the only reason someone would ever post about 205 live is if they were on the show

It's basically NXT Dark now, they regularly have people who are clearly over 205 pounds, and also they're about to unify the Cruiserweight and North American titles so there's literally no reason for this show to exist.

Literally this. They've cut it down to a half hour and are only doing it because Hulu paid them for it.

Okay I have no idea how you do a half hour wrestling show. That's like, one match and some stuff around it? Two maybe?
