bix is a pretty public figure in the wrestling takes biz i think it's fine to post him in here, it's not like it was all that malicious to begin with #itsmy2cents e; the original rule was in place to stop things like quoting someone from the fed thread to call them an idiot in here anyways

yea ok posted:bix is a pretty public figure in the wrestling takes biz i think it's fine to post him in here, it's not like it was all that malicious to begin with #itsmy2cents  imo it's kinda weird to probate that since it's not a forums take, it's a Twitter take, and it's not like they dunked on Bix specifically because he's a goon. Also nobody should be expected to keep track of which goons have Twitter accounts and vice-versa.

We can reevaluate the rules if we’d like and just what constitutes a poster’s take because I hate operating in the gray areas of “well, it could be buuuuutttt”. The specific rule in the OP of this thread is to not post anything from this forum but we also have a general rule to not post about posters so it’s a little sticky IMO.

forkboy84 posted:OK, I'm an idiot white guy from an exceedingly white part of an exceedingly white country. Can someone clarify what this guy means when he talks about "foundational black Americans"? I assume he's talking about descendants of slaves & it's just being a oval office about other black people who migrated to America post 1865 but I'm not sure. Foundational Black Americans sounds like a Black Israelite/Hotep thing.

MJeff posted:Bix is making a fairly reasonable request imo, it really looks like she's just nailing them in the loving head at full speed. Yeah obviously here you see Ruby already moving her head before the impact but she still whips her head so fast that for a split second you go "drat she really hit her hard" and that's what makes the hip attack the best move in the AEW Women's Division because Toni always looks like she's drilling people with it.

Some dipshit on Cagematch voted both Briscoes a 0.0 on the date of Jay's death. GriffinX on Cagematch posted:[0.0] "Awful just awful Bad at promos, no logic to his matches it would be one thing if he just wanted to be a spot guy but he doesn't even do the spots that well." His 10.0 ratings are mostly legit great wrestlers, but looking down the list, his opinions of who deserves high and low ratings are bananas. Hook gets a 10, Bayley is a 3, and Bianca Belair is a 0.

Yeah, pretty sure Jay, even if he is gone, isn't free until the 31st, Muto can barely walk and I doubt he risk loving himself over before the Naito match, WWE would never book Suzuki, they barely did book KAIRI. Aldis, sure, but yeah he's more likely as a mid-boss in NXT and Cardona is decently likely, I think (although unless he's getting a massive deal, I think he's making a mistake given the thing that got him over on the indies doesn't work in WWE, so he'll just be Zack Ryder again).

Fwiw Cardona is still actively promoting indie dates that fall well after the rumble in like March, which would be a dick move if he knew he was going back for anything more than an appearance and would have to cancel

Considering their goal at the outset was 500k, I'd say the TV execs are still pretty happy when Dynamite "only" gets 800k. Duke Pukem fucked around with this message at 03:10 on Jan 28, 2023 |

She's spent the last few years slowly refining a gimmick that American audiences respond to while keeping it hers. It wasn't a gimmick that needed to be shat upon quite so much though.

Hell, in the context of AEW the Freddie gimmick is largely the stomp clap (still here) and the yellow jumpsuit/mic used in a few promotional photos early on in her signing. Like maybe their position is nuanced, but it's not what came out in the post. It looked like they just didn't like goofy stuff like Emi still has.

She also did the Freddie Mercury call and response thing during the Romero Special. That and the stomp clamp AND her music were both conspicuously absent from this match (bring it all back, dirty Tony( and yes, it would have gone over like a lead balloon in this match so idk))
