fawning deference posted:Unfathomable as to why, instead of generating genuine heat and hype for a match, The Firm was brought up in a fuckin promo. "Remember that worthless lovely angle that everyone thankfully forgot? Yeah good job with THAT" is legitimately an insane thing to say on a TV show that is floundering and trying to win back viewers, and it's a clear example of "when going meta goes wrong." You're now letting everyone know that The Firm is "an angle" and highlighting the fakeness of everything, which, yes we know this is all TV but the point of what makes wrestling good is for it to FEEL real so we suspend disbelief and get caught up in the drama. That's the whole point

At New Blood Rising, something unthinkable happened: Goldberg refused to follow the script.

I appreciate Jericho is giving off an early alert warning system on folks he wants to feud with and drain the clout from. If you see newsletters start publicizing how Jericho can't wait to "work with you," do everything you can to get yourself in another feud/occupied ASAP. Swerve has been smart enough to avoid him so far but now Jericho is openly calling for the feud and determined to kill that momentum.

When can we blame the wrestlers who work programs with Jericho for not getting over?

Of all the acts associated with Jericho, I think the one that got over the most is Hager's Hat (it's a good worker)

Jericho's promo was so rotten that it's caused an Always Bad anomaly without him leaving back to the fed. Bravo "Demo-God Painbringer Piss Plane Fozzy" Jericho

https://twitter.com/KennyOmegamanX/status/1735779104643858472 That ain't great. Wonder if he had a feeling on Wednesday he was out for a while. Probably not, since I doubt he willingly advertised a match he knew he wouldn't be able to wrestle in, so maybe he just physically felt like complete poo poo during the segment!

That honestly reads like a guy who can't take criticism honestly and it checks out because all he's done is double down on his ideas and constantly talk about how great and perfect and amazing everything is in AEW

fawning deference posted:That honestly reads like a guy who can't take criticism honestly and it checks out because all he's done is double down on his ideas and constantly talk about how great and perfect and amazing everything is in AEW I mean, I get that to a certain extent; you want the company to have a positive public image and you want to hype your product as much as possible to build interest in it That being said, TK complaining about Twitter trolls isn't really achieving either goal

I'd like to think if i was a billionaire i would not give a gently caress what other people say about me or my vanity wrestling company. But i probably would be passive aggressive too cause in the end i'm only human. I'd definitely be less online and off twitter, though.

yeah, if i had the financial resources to follow through on every bad idea i ever had while on mind altering substances and then put it out on national tv, id definitely stay off the internet, but im a big baby without a pile of invigorating cocaine

He didn't say anything wrong. People have been moving the goalposts on AEW since day 1 and trying to take every success it's had and turn it into a failure.

Everything he said is true, but if he's easily baited by a loud but very minor group, then it's never gonna stop and on occasion he'll come off unhinged. I think he's spread himself out so thin he can't see or realize it.

Seems kinda hypocritical to celebrate Poster Tony when the show is good but tsk tsk him when the show stinks, I dunno. I don't care about Khan's twitter habits, if I were a billionaire, I'd probably still get into pointless fights on twitter all the time because who the gently caress's gonna stop me, I'm a billionaire. I just want him to stop giving a loser fedpilled theater kid so much power over his show. Like, if we're talking about pro wrestling social media, non-women, non-LGBT people, Khan might have the highest amount of heinous personal attacks and outright misinformation and total horseshit lies said about or to him of anybody in the space, I feel like he has a right to be a little annoyed about it.

Again, the solution is for TK to just not give a poo poo what people say about him. He has no control over it, it doesn't matter what he does, the haters are gonna hate regardless, so why get upset over it? It's not worth expending time or energy being concerned about, and all engaging or acknowledging the haters does is encourage them, because now they know what buttons to press. TK honestly comes off worse when he complains about them than he would if he just ignored them.

Did you watch the scrum or just read the quote? I’m no TK defender but it wasn’t like he was super gotten to. Mark briscoe acknowledged the toxicity of Twitter and how much it sucks to read that poo poo too
