So someone started replying to me with the old "Vince is innocent" stuff all WWE fans believe, fine whatever, not really paying attention just quote tweeting him while I'm taking some photos on the ol' job. Someone replies to that guy with this and then I realize his handle is WWEStockholder and I've found a new Kurtz. Well, I guess an older Kurtz because this guy has been around a long time. https://twitter.com/ShootNameJohnny/status/1682119168814972928 There were in fact his last tweets https://twitter.com/wwestockholder/status/12988666516 https://twitter.com/wwestockholder/status/12821855588 Good for him. But all of us true fans know this is false. https://twitter.com/wwestockholder/status/1682119801097920515 https://twitter.com/VinceMcMahon/status/753035502484348932?lang=en MassRafTer fucked around with this message at 22:09 on Jul 20, 2023 |

He thinks wrestling should look like a real fight and not choreographed stunts which is fine but the line between two seems to be whether CM Punk is wrestling or not

The thing is, zero wrestling matches have ever achieved the standard of "looking like a real fight", so what people like Leslie actually want is wrestling that does not deviate from the storytelling conventions of 40+ years ago (or what they perceive to be the storytelling conventions of that era, at least) It's funny to imagine that standard applied to basically any other medium. Trashing any movie that doesn't show the Hero's Journey over a traditional three-act structure, saying alt-comedians are all goofball hacks who don't understand it's supposed to be all about setups and punchlines

They just want wrestlers to be 80s dads who got in from the night shift like 2 hours ago and they’re trying to sleep but goddamn kids keep making a racket and they’re coming down the hallway in their underwear to kick some rear end except the hallway leads to a curtain and now they’re on the way to the ring and the rear end they’re gonna kick belongs to an equally sleep deprived and grumpy dad.

One of the things that stands out to me is how often an aew hater will talk about their experience at a live show. I consider myself a fan but buying a ticket is supporting aew more financially than I have. I think some people just like to complain.

Yeah, some of these AEW Discourse Havers have done a lot more to support the promotion than I have. There's one dude - one of the it was better in the 80's, outlaw mud show, blah blah blah - who goes to any nearby event and brings his kid along so he's buying at least two tickets while taking angled shots to show how few tickets were sold. I can barely give money to thinks I like.

Couldn't sleep, put on the preshow for the ROH show tonight...     Unfortunately I missed the chance to screencap the one where they declared the Bloodline storyline as better than all of cinema and deserving an Emmy and an Oscar.

CrossFaceX wrote on 03.03.2023: [0.0] "Tony Khan is the worst promoter in pro wrestling history, even worse than Vince McMahon. For Example, he didn't handle about CM Punk and The Elite incident properly and consequently he didn't fire Punk. Even Punk has all responsible about this incident, he didn't fire him because of ratings and mercahdise sales. What if Hunter or Vince do in this situation? Probably fire him without hesitation. Not only that, the AEW's ridiculous storylines, boring shows, people who don't get the opportunity, his blunders are countless. Tony Khan is responsible for all this AEW has become like this." TheDeviantPro wrote on 06.10.2022: [2.0] "Terrible booker. Dude can't book matches with a good build up without doing multiple rematches, countless inference or nonsensical booking. His booking of the women's division is just terrible. AEW's weekly rankings has become pointless nowadays as Tony just books number one contender matches, tournaments and battle royales instead rather then using a ranking system for that sole purpose. He's also shown not to a good boss with backstage fights and heat between talent seamlessly increasing on a weekly basic. He needs to stop being a mark and stop trying to be best friends with his talent and start being a actual boss that's not afraid to put his foot down. Anyone who gives Tony higher then a six is just kidding to themselves to thinking that Tony is a good boss or booker, when he's none of those things."

On twitter he's claiming it wasn't him, and a quick look through his tweets it seems like he doesn't care about AEW or ROH at all, other then claiming that "Real Wrestling" is coming on in 7 minutes or Monday Night, etc. But I could have missed something.
