People on reddit seem to think this is Michael Elgin pretending to be a journalist. I don't understand why! He writes just like a journalist does.

I got 3 sentences in and thought "wtf is going on with this post". I'd totally buy that this is actually Elgin. Dude needs some help.

He interviews some really questionable people like Jarvis who claims he has been away from wrestling for mental health reasons when Jarvis himself screams over and over on twitter how he has been unfairly canceled and no one will book him because of that.

Over my tenure in wrestling even though brief I attended many seminars, 1 seminar that stood out to me was a Michael Elgin seminar, it was so different than others that it encouraged me and a few others I had trained with to drive to Nashville from Michigan for the ROH 2014 Best In The World PPV where Elgin captured the ROH World Championship.

Driving ten hours to watch Michael Elgin is something only Michael Elgin would do.

Eh, the overall point is valid though. Good article that was written by someone who obviously learned a lot about wrestling quickly. It's really an article about the American healthcare system using wrestling as it's framing.

i vouch for tim. he's strongly connected to the texas loop of indies and was one of the co-runners of PWR and was often around pre-show for wrestlecircus when it was a few of us and the owner and kevin condron.

He's actually one of their biggest rising stars. He sometimes guest hosts Gutfeld! so it's not unlikely he ends up hosting his own show in the near future, especially with the vacancy created by Tucker's removal. On any given day Gutfeld! is the #2 or #3 show on the network so right now he's really high visibility.

He was part of the Fox News Superbowl commercial this year (which played several times sigh) and even had his lovely belt with him.

My family knows I'm a wrestling fan and every time the commercial aired they looked at me as if I had some kind of explanation and I just had to be like :shrug:.

He's the champion that's why he has a belt! Some wrestling fan if you can't explain that he is the champ and thus our favorite.

I don't think he's a bad guy or that the point of the article is wrong, just that Jarvis popping up and lying like that and Luigi Primo being heavily featured in a healthcare article when wrestling fans think he's anti vax (he's probably not) was weird.

History Comes Inside!
Nov 20, 2004




Marty Scurll is in a really weird place where his wrestler friends seem to have all just let it ride, yet promoters (other than iirc Santino who walked it back after a backlash I think?) aren’t willing to do the same thing, where usually it’s carny promoters giving shitbags a pass and it’s up to the locker room to just live with it because it’s not their circus.

He was getting a fair amount of work in Mexico and Europe but he's never getting another US job outside of random lucha themed indies.

I think the implication is that Colt was using his mom's bank account to shift money around, thinking it wouldn't be able to be seized as an asset in case of bankruptcy or as part of any judgement against him in a civil lawsuit, only to find out that the opposite was true when he sued Punk and then Punk countersued, hence him dropping his original lawsuit shortly afterwards. Now granted, I don't know any of this for sure, I'm just speculating here as to why someone sharing a bank account with their mom might be viewed as a negative thing.

Considering he used to date Serena Deeb and now seems to be dating someone 10 years younger, it rather looks like he is moving down.
