Yeah, sorry about that. I should have been more gentle.

A work is supposed to generate money. This has made me laugh at AEW and is now killing my interest in MJF by taking the backstage and bringing it on the air.

I dunno, I’m way less interested in MJF now than I was when I could actually believe it. Now it’s a storyline, it all seems really desperate to me. Speaking of which:

It only makes sense if it was a shoot. Made the company look like a mess. If the company is a mess? Well, LolAEW.

More likely to was a shoot that’s been turned into a work, which kills interest. I think you’ll see that widespread over time, since there is no real drama from a “real life situation” that is no longer real.

ron the dial 06-02-2022 02:14 PM

i'm not knocking or defending the angle. i'm just saying you're a sucker.

Mr. Nerfect 06-02-2022 02:16 PM

This is actually kind of clever on AEW’s behalf if they want to ruin MJF over the next 18 months.

How so? Because the shoot became a work? Or are you saying it was a work all along? Because that would be fucking stupid of them. That even I didn’t believe they were that stupid and then proving me wrong isn’t exactly something to gloat about.

But hey — maybe this will boost them to record highs and get them the deals they need to survive?

So are you saying the MJF promo is not drawing any interest from people? Because I think it's quite the opposite and there is surely some casual fans and marks who are unsure that it's a work or think it can possibly be a shoot.

Crippla 06-02-2022 03:15 PM

Idk I don't think the angle is that bad of an idea...I like it

Yeah, it’s finally happened. He may boycott the show now.

They turned the tables on him. They turned the tables in the wrooong way. They got him... mad now!

Is it drawing interest? The people I hear talking about it were the same people talking about MJF before any of this started. The wrestling bubble convinces itself that it’s so much bigger than it is. That’s what an echo chamber does.

Marks don’t really care about a disgruntled employee…well, being an employee. This isn’t Austin/Vince. And I don’t think casual fans care to walk that line between work/shoot that much. Vince Russo would gamble on this too. They just want to see believable/credible things happening. There is a difference, although I’m sure some dunderheads on here (not you) will try and split hairs between them.

MJF was already believable. This is just taking the real issues and it’s going to get too close to blurring the lines to be interesting. The drama of something being a shoot goes right out the window when it is clear it is a work. The MJF/Tony Khan issues are not transferable to Dynamite.

IF they’ve cottoned on to MJF being their best asset. And IF they’ve cottoned on to their backstage drama being more interesting than their pro-wrestling content, then more power to them. But I don’t think it’s going to go the way people think it will. I don’t have any faith in AEW.

Damian Rey 2.0 06-02-2022 05:13 PM

Lmaooooo wait I thought it wasn’t work but now it is? Noid flipped on that quick. Also lol how now that we all can safely assume its a work noid is suddenly no longer interested in mjf. But he’s going to continue to talk about it for some reason.

I guess we will have to see where they go from here and how this angle plays out first. But ftr, I wasn't trying to make it out to he something huge like Austin/Vince or anything, I just don't see it hurting AEW at all, I see more positives than negatives thus far but it could go south really quick depending how it gets played. I personally enjoy it and still think MJF as continuously getting better on the mic. Not to mention the crowd reaction was fantastic during his promo

#1-norm-fan 06-02-2022 05:32 PM

Between this and the awkward “you edited a post!” deflection attempt earlier, this could be the darkest day in Dipshit Duo history.

Wild.

#1-norm-fan 06-02-2022 05:33 PM

And let’s not forget Seph’s mother.

Let’s never forget Seph’s mother.

I know I can’t.

On account of the sores.

Sepholio 06-02-2022 06:11 PM

You know that's more embarrassing for you right?

Sepholio 06-02-2022 06:12 PM

ANYWAYS, AEW pulled all of MJFs merch a little while ago.

No way it's a work if they pulled the merch, amirite?

Sepholio 06-02-2022 06:58 PM

Oh, I think I see what's happening here. You thought I was joking about my mom earlier, right? No, seriously, she's bonkers, cuckoo, shrunken frontal lobe lobotomized nut satchel insane. Whackadoo, loony, 3 fries short of a happy meal.

Your jokes about my mom have really been jokes about you getting freakydeeky with someone who is basically legally retarded and in need of a padded room.

80/20 at best.

Sepholio 06-02-2022 07:01 PM

Now I know you may be thinking "Damn Seph is a monster (like Kenton Lane) for savaging his Ma Dukes like that". And you aren't entirely wrong. But I want you to understand that for all intents and purposes my mom died when i was 10-12 and was replaced by a knock off pod person they didn't cook right.

And she's a total bitch.

ron the dial 06-02-2022 07:02 PM

damn

Sepholio 06-02-2022 07:05 PM

Fan casually reminding me behind the scenes that he's done far worse to legally retarded people.

Please come back Matthew Droford!

#1-norm-fan 06-02-2022 07:05 PM

Oh yeah. Droford, too.

Sepholio 06-02-2022 07:08 PM

You gonna take that Xrod? I wouldn't take that from someone who raw dogs people that are deemed too incompetent to be responsible for themselves!

Sepholio 06-02-2022 07:11 PM

on topic for a moment: MJF also pulled from AEWs roster page.

Sepholio 06-02-2022 07:13 PM

I wonder if it was all real, then they worked it out (or so Tony thought) and decided to work a shoot, but then MJF was all like naw bro, this is still a real shoot sucker. That would be amazing.

Yes I love it! Not the same at all but there is def a comparison to be made to Pillman/Bischoff in WCW as someone mentioned the similarities to Pullman before
