His tweets have a hypnotic, proto-Kurtzian vibe to them. I hope this man does big things.

Breaking: Bully Ray still a giant loving idiot and also a piece of poo poo

https://twitter.com/WrestlingNewsCo/status/1484258194495049734?s=20

quote:

Bully continued, “We have our demons. These demons got the best of Jon for a time period where he had to step away from AEW. I would have liked to have heard him say a bit of an apology to the AEW fans. You don’t have to apologize to the boys even though the boys do count on you but any one of those guys and gals could have the same problems that you did. And trust me, I came up in an era where a slew of men and women had their demons. The fans expect a little bit more from you. What about the fans that bought tickets to see AEW and Jon Moxley while Jon was away taking care of his problems I’m very happy that he left and took care of his problem. And he looked incredibly healthy last night. And I love everything that he said. I just would have loved to have heard a little bit of accountability. I don’t know if I’m sorry is necessarily the right word but maybe endear yourself a little bit to the crowd if you felt you let them down. This is coming from me, the hard rear end of all hard asses. Personally, if it was me in the same situation, the first thing I would have said is ‘guys, I’m sorry if I let you down’…I think that would have been the proper thing to do.”

It's loving astounding that Bully Ray will go on a tirade about how there's no real heat in wrestling, how wrestlers these days are soft and nothing feels real anymore, but the second a guy who literally just stepped out of rehab tells someone calling him a drunk to gently caress off he's like "Oh my god this is DISGUSTING BEHAVIOR"

“I did enjoy that they started off with Moxley,” Bully said, “They came out with a bang, people were ready for it and Moxley said what he needed to say. However, I would have liked to have heard just a little bit of accountability from Jon. I understand the whole demons thing and we always use the word demons as a creative word to get around the real issues. Whether it’s an alcohol issue, whether it’s a drug issue. In Tommy [Dreamer’s] case it’s an eating issue. Everybody has some kind of demon that they have to get around.”

Bully continued, “We have our demons. These demons got the best of Jon for a time period where he had to step away from AEW.

honestly reading this i'm not entirely sure what bully ray thinks mox should have apologized for other than like, apologizing to anyone who was upset that he used to be an alcoholic? its a lot of words and most of them shouldn't be there.

He's specifically talking about Mox should apologize to fans he let down who wanted to see him on the shows they went to while he was gone. And a little bit hinted that he should apologize to the wrestlers who he let down by hurting their business. He says he doesn't have to worry about that but just by mentioning it he thinks it.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

I mentioned this last time Mark Madden was getting posted, but he was at the Dynamite in Pittsburgh this summer and stood up at one point and waved at people. It wasn't like he got introduced or anything, there was just a commercial break where nothing was happening and he felt the need to do this. A few people booed him but most people didn't even recognize him. My wife asked who the "weird guy trying to get applause" was. Meanwhile, some little kid had a sign saying it was their birthday and we all sang to them and cheered and clapped after Justin Roberts pointed it out.

I 100% think this specific event soured him on AEW and it's really funny how thin-skinned he is.

He was pretty pro-AEW for a few weeks after the Pittsburgh shows. Next time they are in town and he gets some guests and tickets he'll be nice again.
