People were so willing to root for an addict they decided that Walter White was the good guy.

22 Eargesplitten posted:At least AEW employees are, you know, employees, right? Unionization would be great, but offering people healthcare and poo poo is a major step up. Not everyone on the roster is an employee, but they do try and find backstage roles for people to get them healthcare - I know Luchasaurus they have as a nutrionist and Leva handles travel arrangements. They don't control the bookings for the people that aren't employees though (and even then, they don't really seem to care)

Kvantum posted:They care now based on how the other promotions are handling CoViD safety, but there's still no outright ban on other bookings, just banning other TV (I assume) without creative approval. Kenny will need to drop the AAA Mega title and Mox will need to drop the IWGP US title eventually, for example. Yeah, COVID kind of throws a wrench into things but I assume for their non-signed talent it's more like "if you take this booking we can't guarantee we'll use you in the future" and most of those wrestlers would probably pick AEW over whatever indie booking they're giving up.

davidbix posted:What makes that whole thing extra funny is that when I've talked to talent about Meltzer, they don't think he's got a massive anti-WWE or pro-AEW or pro-NJPW bias. They think he's a WWE office stooge who prints stories that they put out to mess with talent. I don't necessarily think that's true, but yeah, they see it completely differently. Was this what Miro was pissed off about when he reported that thing about Lana's instagram advertising being the final straw for WWE and third party income?

RealFoxy posted:I'm not going to dunk on Satin because ranking WWE is a total fool's errand anyway. Most WWE Superstars have little to no input on what their characters are, where they're placed on the card, or how good their matches will be because everything is micro-manged down to the second every time they're on TV. That's why it's such a terrible idea, to me. He's indirectly criticizing WWE's booking, but in a way that puts the actual blame on the wrestlers who have no control over it.

It's obvious they spend as much time with their families as possible and they're not the partying types. They talked about this a bit when talking about Brodie Lee. They basically hit it off with him instantly because Brodie wasn't a party guy either.

Lead Pipe Cinch posted:Averages across 30 data points are directly comparable to averages across 4. Couldn't find an age on Max Caster so I just went with 30 (which is almost certainly too old), the average age of the battle royale is 30.

sleepwalkers posted:it's just a fun thing for disingenuous dorks to latch onto, average age is a metric that supports the thesis that wwe's focused too heavily on things that aren't attempting to build up young stars, it isn't the point in and of itself. Exactly. I was thinking about this yesterday. If WWE used older guys to try and get a new guy over, they'd have done something like pair up Ricochet and Carlito.

RealFoxy posted:Jericho the human is still a stupid, insecure, rear end in a top hat, and chud. But his career in AEW has been pretty selfless in putting people over, I can hate him as a person but I still respect that he's using his celebrity to constantly put other people over. He also donates a lot to non MAGA related charities and directly to struggling wrestlers. But he still donated a lot of money to Trump. A man of many contrasts Jericho the human has also protected a lot of the kids of his wrestler friends like Brian Pillman Jr. and David Benoit so it's not all that straightforward either.
