I don't think anyone ever tried to claim that Punk wouldn't be in Chicago period that night (at one point he tried to bullshit that there was going to be a screening of his first episode of "Heels") so I'm curious what you mean by that?

Some people were still having doubts in that discord.

I’m baffled that anyone still cares about rampage spoilers. How does no one watch that show even when it airs and people somehow act like they care about the results?

I really enjoy watching Rampage each week, and it has a very active weekly thread. At least normally I know the last few minutes of WOR are going to be spoilers for the show and can just stop listening before it gets to it, Dave just blurting out a major result was irritating. :sigh:

In this case I don't mind it since it's a result that would piss me off (not an actual spoiler but being safe here).

I think it's dumb they even go over spoilers on WOR because it's just them reading off results.

Plus it has a reminder of the fact that Dave’s brother is a professional juggler.

One of the top threads on Squared Circle today is a post where people commiserating about how they've been bullied for saying that wrestling is the least important part of wrestling, so yes

I only occasionally browse r/sq, which I understand to be fairly tame insanity wise for reddit wrestling discussions, and they are ridiculous most of the time.

Someone was ranting about how Dave is personally racist against Indians so I asked the redditor to give me the exact quote.... and he gave me the screenshot below he took from the newsletter that totally proves Dave's unquenchable racism beyond any shadow of a doubt.



Not the best and brightest over there.

I know, just seems like the vibe I get from Reddit is the people there think he’s in the tank for AEW when in reality he’s been harder on them than anyone, and that they believe the Bischoff/Pritchard/Cornette stuff about him.

Hey, I'm very briefly in that video! I'm the heavyset white guy in a DPW shirt. (No, the other one.)

During the intermission the Boys got on the PA and said "Hey, this is going to sound weird, does anybody have an aux cable down there that we can use?" "...this is not a bit." The audio during the hype/intro video had been kind of wonky, and I think they were worried that the audio in Cole's response would cut out intermittently. Luckily somebody did have a spare on them and ran it up to the production table.

It was. I've not seen an update on his status after Dynamite, hopefully it wasn't too serious (and November 12 is far away enough to let him recover if he does need time off.)

Personally I'm glad I get to watch the best tag team put on good tag team matches. Does he not understand that part of the appeal of wrestling is getting a good match that can last longer than a blowout?
