The original tweet is really dumb too because it's conflating Shibata saying he doesn't like some modern NJPW match tropes and Undertaker saying modern WWE is bad because people play video games and don't spend their free time snorting coke and committing crimes

One look at almost anywhere but WWE would show the problem is just the WWE style being insanely boring and knee destroying, but the nazi sympathizer boot licker is just going to pine for the era where they were worked to die quicker.

Shibata, on the other hand understands wrestling and why it needs to look violent!

Incidentally (and although not a strike), the Overdrive/Playmaker/Play of the Day/etc, the move considered one of the worst finishers was originally used as a setup for a wristlock.

It would also probably function pretty well as a set-up for an armbar of some sort.

That's an excuse they can throw out as some perceived transgression to justify them just being lovely to someone. Tay was getting coordinated harassment before her and Sammy were a thing because she posts thirst traps and left NXT and was held up as an example of how bad the performance center is. Sammy said the incredibly lovely stuff about Sasha Banks years ago so they both have priors, however legitimate, for being targeted by the worst kinds of stans and fandom people.

Nobody engaging in this actually cares about Pam or even knew who she was either before the breakup was made public or the proposal segment.

I think there's something to the Austin Aries stuff because there are about 500 things worth making GBS threads on him for other than "is short" and the number of people who trip over themselves to pull out some 1960s joke book slams against short people get tiring. I know "it's funny because it obviously upsets him!" gets trotted out but that always feels weak to me.

The Jim Cornette hot tub stuff feels like fair game to me. "lol you're short" ends up hitting lots of people with friendly fire, "lol you used your power as booker to try to make trainees gently caress your wife in a hot tub" catches a lot less people.

Well of course it would have been poo poo on because it would have been completely different and terrible. "If X thing was done by a worse pro wrestling company then all you guys who liked it would actually hate it!" are my favourite takes from this thread.
