When and why did people turn on JR anyway, out of interest? I've seen strange tweets and the like from him but I thought he was still near-universally beloved by fans.

The creepy tweets and him burying NJPW on air happened around the same time and seemed to be the turning point in the discourse.

That list of 10 ways to stand up for WWE is one of the funniest things WWE has ever produced and there's nothing funny about OTE so this was an easy one for me.

Does the New York 64 have any affiliation to the New York 50?

Crown Jewel is the worse Saudi show to my mind, while the thing about the ring being damaged and potentially unsafe during OTE edges it since not content with already having a death on the show they were putting other people at risk of completely avoidable injuries.

GRR is worse for me because it had the more blatant and egregious Saudi propaganda while they tried to downplay it a little for Crown Jewel. The murder of one journalist is a drop in the ocean of horrible poo poo that Saudi Arabia is doing.

Opening up to wrestling in general is waaaay too broad of a scope.
As in, anyone who isn't a Murderer, Rapist, Pedophile, or White Supremacist wouldn't even be relevant.

Besides, I thought the point was to highlight WWE/WWF's history of poo poo?

Also there won't be the funny replies from angry WWE fans.

Same guy was very into it when the bad wrestling tweet thread superstar Jake Nazar did the same thing for TNA

Kidani makes money off of Gacha where is the New Japan 64 huh!

(It'd be dominated by Inoki)

Hey there's the Nazi poster and the story where Taichi was a despicable heel because he was standing up for Miho's right not to be harassed by Taguchi.
