Why would this surprise anyone. Fine if you don't like Ospreay, but Dave clearly does, a lot. Misawa had 25 *****+ matches in a 27 year career. Ospreay has 22 (or 23, did he review Ospreay vs RKJ?) in an 11 year career. Ospreay is basically Dave's platonic ideal of a wrestler. Fine not to agree with that but people go out of their way to be mad about 1 bloke's opinions on wrestling.

MJeff posted:I mean they probably won't be. They'll probably be back to low .30s and 950k because Khan doesn't typically load up go home shows. Right the point isn't oh how mad will they be next week if its still good. The point is, whenever AEW does well, they always say the same poo poo. Oh yeah well next week it will be bad again so this doesnt matter. It's forever goalpost moving

Plus Ospreay’s g1 finals matches were great and the trios match on dynamite was spectacular. You’re right that Dave loves Ospreay and I don’t think the praise for will in the last two weeks is underserved

This is one of my favorite things. Someone gets angry about something they made up in their head. I wasn't aware of Punk losing in Cleveland in the UFC, and I straight up forgot he walked out of WWE from Cleveland. For me, I always consider Pittsburgh his walkout since that was the really terrible Rumble that led to the rear end video. None of this is important, none of this matters, but this dude is really angry that AEW didn't tell him about it. The cherry on top is that he's apparently fully aware of these things now but acting as if it's arcane knowledge only available to the most studious of scholars.

I thought the storyline was two guys who have a claim to be champion can't be separated until the PPV so the match is brought forward and one guy reinjures himself because he came back too early while the other guy who has been dominant in the last 3 months took advantage and won. Where it happened was irrelevant. It just happened to be Mox's hometown and a place where some stuff happened to Punk.

lol Britt has meaningfully put over exactly one person in her AEW career and she's spent basically the entire time since then burying her as hard as possible on TV and to every news outlet that will listen.

Isn't slamming your kayfabe rival in out of character interviews just what you do now? Blurring the lines, etc?

as we've seen over the past few days, literally just saying "this is out of character btw" is more than enough to drive people who post about wrestling online completely loving insane so i'd say it works pretty well

As the past few days demonstrate, wrestling fans are able to convince themselves wrestlers are working even when it does not contribute to a story at all, so why not say “This is what I, the performer, explicitly think out-of-character” and dump on your coworker you hate and let people work out how it’s actually just part of the show
