triplexpac posted:Oh man I came here to post that too. That really explains a lot, WWE stans imagining Vince as some noble captain defending his troops In the Andre doc, Vince gets all weepy about Andre's death and how they probably parted on bad turns. I don't remember exactly what I said, but it was something like "It'd be easier to buy this if he wasn't still abusing talent today the way he abused Andre." and the Vince stans immediately descended on me to talk about how he's totally not a bad guy.

They shut up real quick if you bring up the covering up child molestation or the fact he's a sexual predator. Or killing Owen Hart.

My experience is that these people try to explain away that poo poo. I mean, in all fairness, it was only six or seven years ago on these forums that people were still defending a lot of what happened with Owen Hart. It could be because it was before more information came out, but we're still talking 2012 or so.

The ring boy scandal of those three does actually shut them up, the other two yeah they will try to hand wave. But very few people want to engage when it comes to child molestation. Sad!

Except that what we learned from tonight, the fact that it took a complete disruption of plans and pre-set writing to get anything good on the show, means that it literally can't be good without some sort of disaster. It's not gonna win.

Oh my god. NXT is gonna rebound in ratings this week because the World Series ended and they're gonna say it was because THEY TOTALLY SHOWED UP AND KICKED rear end ON SMACKDOWN. HHH pulls his favorite move off again. I love it.

UltimoDragonQuest posted:I believe it's an old Hogan move but it's funny every time. My favourite is the time where Hogan mistimed it and didn't come back until after football ended, so the ratings went back up even though he wasn't there and proved he wasn't nearly the draw he claimed.

Well you see one is a publicly traded corporation possibly putting hundreds of lives in danger and lying about it, and the other is respecting a woman's right to tell her own story if/when she's ready. I can see how you'd get confused.

vincels on reddit are extremely upset at meltzer's report on Saudi Arabiaquote:Is there a proven fact in anything he has said? Just one fact. That’s all I’m asking for. It’s one thing for Meltzer to do this poo poo with wrestling rumours but he’s talking about loving hostage situations here. I won’t accept anything less than facts. These guys NEED to be held to higher standards than a Hugo Savinovich podcast that has already been proven false or questionable at the least. quote:So. Metlzer is STILL doubling down on this. Putting out completely fake and unsubstantiated "news" which if in any way was true would be reported by mainstream news due to the government likely needing to be involved yet nobody outside Dave Meltzer has a thing to say about this. quote:At some point we need to start taking what Dave socializes with a grain of salt and understand some of his reporting is going to be sensationalized and opinionated due to his alliance with AEW. quote:Unless 30 wrestlers suddenly all upload videos saying 'There were, uh, mechanical issues, yadayada....' within a few hours of each other, there's literally no way of knowing if there's any truth to this. Meltzer might believe his source, whoever that happens to be, but so far most of the social media activity has just been people saying something about being glad to be back home. i love that people took "talent felt like they were being held hostage" and turned it into "meltzer is claiming there was a hostage situation and everyone is under a gag order"

VCR, The Anti Crack Account and a group of other Big Trump Fundraiser apologists just tried to post a bunch of Bix's tweets out of context to claim he's racist. They are doing it for no other reason than because he's been tweeting about the Saudi situation. There's no reason to link to the individual tweets but this is a good example of how desperate all of the hardcore Vincels are at this point. They know the company is completely disgusting so they are going all in.

If it wasn't obvious before it is now: there is absolutely nothing these people won't defend, up to and including literal death (look at how mad they got when Owen's widow dared sue the company that killed her husband) If our dumb tasteless jokes actually came true and KSA officials lined them up on the tarmac to shoot them one by one, the Vincels would shrug and go "cost of doing business." And then continue to harass Cody about bringing his service dog on a plane.

There's no reason to link to the individual tweets but this is a good example of how desperate all of the hardcore Vincels are at this point. They know the company is completely disgusting so they are going all in. The short version is that while there are a couple things I'm happy to apologize for at an appropriate time but didn't go past "somewhat insensitive and not well thought out, but clearly not malevolent," like saying that some fighters weighing in all drawn out from dehydration looked like "AIDS patients." But...one or two of those got sprinkled in with: 1. A tweet referring to a store that exclusively carries gay-themed pornography as a "gay porn store" (literally, I was walking past such a place in SoHo and tweeted about it because the guy on the poster in the window looked like Billy Zabka). 2. A literal, obvious sentence fragment (“...the average black American of ‘African’ descent just has some vague idea...”) from before the character limit got doubled (and before threading worked reliably, as well) reframed as me calling black Americans fake Africans. It was actually part of a sentence where I was explaining to some alt-white types how "black" and "African American" became the default terms because black Americans who descend from slaves generally don't know what country their ancestors came from. (It grew out of one of those dumb Cain Velasquez tattoo arguments, in this case with MMA fighter Michelle Ould and some other idiots. After I said that there's nothing about "white" that's worth being proud of, one of them countered with "What about 'black pride?") I gotta say though, I would not have expected today to be SUCH a tipping point for so many of those idiots, though. As for some of the other stuff MRT and others brought up: A LOT of fans have no idea about the ring boy scandal, the actual events leading to Owen Hart's death, the actual findings in the Jimmy Snuka case, etc. I'm willing to cut some slack on those. The ring boy scandal got an alarmingly small amount of coverage in the grand scheme of things, limited almost entirely to NYC tabloids and syndicated tabloid TV, all during a brief window in 1992. If you didn't read a detailed review, you have no idea that Martha Hart's book is more than just a depressing read about their marriage. The Snuka thing is so cut and dry that it's almost hard to believe, but the key facts didn't come up in nearly enough of the 2013-on coverage. So I don't blame people for not knowing that stuff. It's doubling down after learning where they lose me. (And that's even before we get into a zillion Benoit related things that are not on the surface of the case, like Fragile X, Dave Taylor, Dr. Cyril Wecht calling the coroner, running the tribute show after learning that police believed Chris was responsible on top of it being kind of obvious in the context of that weekend, etc.)
