Queerphobia in it's many permutations is a hell of a thing. Hell look at Graham Linehan throwing literally everything in his life away (including his family) because he just couldn't stop belching transphobia every waking hour of the day.

That's such a hateful comparison. It's easy to be cynical about tweets like this, but you can compare Buff's old managed tweets to this and it is night and day. The tweets aren't particularly well written and are very heavy handed, like a guy who is eager to please, which Buff has always been. He's not out there writing 20 tweet threads about why we need Medicare For All. These sound pretty much like what Buff would write.

Trevor was a huge David Starr fan and it wouldn't surprise me if he's extra cynical and doesn't want to get fooled again, so he has to be too smart for the room.

people have a hard time dealing with the concept that you can enjoy watching a heel wrestle and look forward to their promos and matches. even some people on here have been like that, saying that someone gets too much of a pop to be heel

Nah Bryan's pretty clearly back to being a face, it's just his character hasn't really changed cause the only reason he was ever a heel was he was pitted against Hangman

Mox and Bryan are tweeners, easily

soon enough they'll be faces, but they're definitely not working heel compared to, say, the JAS

in conclusion, Bryan should come out from the Codyvator

Bryan's character has been consistent since the beginning. He loves violence. He didn't come here to help people he came here to hurt people. And he's friends with other people who love violence. And he'll teach younger people if they too wish to worship at the alter of violence

They split the women's segments into the TBS title block and then the debut/world title block. Don't really see what the problem is with that!

I do wish they'd move the women's match out of the pre main event slot from time to time. It feels like that spot in the show lets people cool down before the main and sometimes the crowd doesn't seem as into the matches because of it.

Maybe there's some actual reason for doing it but I dunno. Seems weird to pretty consistently have the women's match there each week.

The women's match used to be sandwiched in between the four men's matches, so they do move it about.

I don't think there's anything inherently cool-downish about the pre-main event match. I think you could make a lot of valid criticisms about the presentation of the women's division that might be creating the feeling the matches are being "relegated" to a completely unremarkable spot in a two-hour program, but I can't see how it's the actual time slot itself. (Especially because if you care enough to notice and complain about this, you are absolutely watching the entire show!)

That's all a separate conversation than "The segments are airing too close together," which is 100% something you have to trick yourself into thinking is bad

I dunno, I'm sick so maybe my brain isn't at its full capacity. In my head, if you're in the arena and you know there's one match and then the main event, you might take that time to go to the bathroom or get food or just chill a bit until the big match happens. Maybe it's less a mindset in AEW since almost every match is a cool fun match. My head feels like a balloon.

So AEW has let Marko Stunt's contract expire and the Gareth Squad have concluded this is the exact same thing is WWE firing 100 people during the worst of the pandemic, and also that AEW is definitely dying and going out of business because they "can't afford Marko Stunt"
