That is entirely incorrect. There are a few things put on TV that I did not like, but my issue since day one has been pretty much anything they do outside of producing wrestling content.

Stuff like Jericho going out of his way to say Walter has a stupid wrestling name, or Kenny Omega giving interviews how NXT wrestlers would all be in dark matches on Dynamite, or the owner arguing with people on Twitter about demos, it's all offputting.

I've posted multiple times that Cody does all that extra stuff right, and they should be following his lead.

So yes, AEW is an enjoyable watch, it is the rest of the week I wish they weren't so Carny/Indyriffic.

AEW sexuality is a spectrum. I’ll go full AEW fag if it pushes xrod over the edge though.

It kinda isn't, because you spend lots of time complaining about the company, but sure.

You know you don't have to read or listen to any of that, right? You can just enjoy the show. I didn't know about any of those gripes you have until right now. Also none of that should have any effect on your enjoyment of the show. WWE guys/girls do dumb shit on social media all the time, it doesn't make me enjoy their work any less. Most of the time I don't even know about it.

Those AEW fucks don't deserve you.

All they are is trash.

That was NOT my first post about it. That was a reply to Baron saying he thought she would be done with wrestling.

That however was not a potshot at the product AEW produces. It was a prediction that she would preach the narrative, that is pushed incessantly, that AEW is the greatest place to work. That does not mean I am badmouthing the TV show, that just means the actual narrative is predictable and annoying.

It doesn't mean I'll stop following Dynamite, it just means I won't need to listen to yet another Jericho podcast about how WWE is such a bad place to work.

The narrative is predictable because as stated before, regardless of the product itself, AEW is very likely a more fun place to work.

Current rumor going around the net is that Shane McMahon might be replacing Bruce Prichard as the new lead writer of RAW.

Prichard supposedly wants to lessen his workload since its gotten too much for him to handle.

I also spend plenty of time complaining about dumb things WWE does, and have been since long before AEW was even a thing.

As for not knowing about those gripes, that is what Noid is referring to when he says I was right, because it's the same things he used to get mad at me for circa January 2019.

Miraculously, Gossett noted that Bagwell will not require surgery.

According to an announcement released on 8/18 by authorities seeking witnesses, Bagwell was driving a 2013 Chevrolet Tahoe while driving West on Cumberland Boulevard towards Cumberland Parkway in Cobb County on Sunday 8/16. Around 5:18 PM, Bagwell lost control as he followed a curve in the road, striking the center median and a metal fence inside the median, before driving towards oncoming traffic on the opposite side of the road. The car then hit the curb before colliding a "free-standing bathroom" next to a bus station.

Bagwell was transported to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital in Marietta, GA with serious injuries. The announcement noted that "Investigators believe Bagwell was impaired by prescription medication during the collision."

Doesn't really change my opinion of his work anyway. I'd much rather hear JR be excited & call someone the wrong name than Cole phone it in while reading buzzwords.

Fightful has learned that Lee signed off on the change, but WWE has also been urging talent to ditch their CFO$ themes. The former WWE music group no longer works with WWE, and signed a terrible deal with their publisher that sees the publisher get half the royalties. WWE does not have the same publishing deal with the group as Jim Johnston, which is why we've seen so many changes to music over the last year or so. There have been some wrestlers that hated the music presented as replacements so much, they outright rejected the changes.
