Resetera is quite bad but I can't imagine wrestling discourse is a particularly big reason why. Something about it just attracts shitheads in general.

Were those 'hostage situation :airquote:' comments before or after the new lawsuit information? I guess they probably don't care either way.

Just like that conspiracy where a bunch of wrestlers were held on a plane by armed men so a rich rear end in a top hat could prove a point to a less rich rear end in a top hat.

It's also ignoring that Lashley pretty much always made a fool out of Rusev in-storyline and got away with everything. Yeah, he really had to work hard salvaging his role in that.

Aren't they doing a segment honoring Shida and her reign and the fact that she carried the division for an entire year on Friday?

Did this guy just get worked by a heel getting heat?

You'd think his status as a professional astroturfer for WWE would give Satin even a little bit of self-awareness.

I don't think he's talking about anything specific, he just wanted everyone to know those darn viewers ruin everything in WWE these days. He made a post a while back about the Montreal Screwjob 'tricking' people into thinking Vince was evil.

Has anyone tried to tell those people bitching about the Ghostbusters thing that one of the Face announcers buried it and the match ended with their own bit used to humiliate them?

I know most of them would just reply like Gareth, but I'm curious.

His article on TBS championship v Queens Crown

Though this tale of two tournaments suggests AEW does a better job booking women, that is not the case at all. In fact, part of the disappointment with the series of enhancement matches that was the Queen’s Crown tournament is WWE’s proven ability to consistently create top female stars at the level of their male counterparts. Bianca Belair, Sasha Banks, Charlotte Flair, Bayley and Becky Lynch have all ascended to the top of the WWE roster as some of the biggest stars in the company. WWE simply didn’t give the same attention to its midcard women. This has also been the case with male midcarders in WWE whose characters and storylines often lack the depth and consistency of a Roman Reigns, Drew McIntyre or Bobby Lashley.

"This suggests AEW is better at booking women, but actually WWE is. They purposely did not this tournament, as a joke, but they could have if they felt like it!"

tbh the only real cringe there is that when/if that doesn't happen he probably won't even mention it, same as that guy who said Big E was gonna shoot right back up. By the standards of all his other posts that's pretty good.

Danny once tweeted unironically that it's better to be fired than have your contract run out, since WWE was firing people and AEW was letting their contracts run out.

They say 'as businessman' FTR should realize those matches would be great, but I'd think as businessman they both know they'd just get shoved into eating more losses to the Usos as soon as possible, especially now they're even higher up on the card than before.
