also grown men should decisions for themselves. if those choices put them in a wheelchair so be it. its their life not yours.

I don't think he necessarily meant blade. It's def that he wanted to wrestle a more brutal style that I guess calls for blood more often. Vince was never gonna let him wrestle that style with his medical history.

This is why I said it sounds like someone with brain damage, specifically meaning CTE. He didn't work for years and it looked like he never would again. He does not need to be laying it all on the table and risking his life and well being at that crazy level. He has a family. It's insane to me. He's one of the best in the world even without taking things to that next level of brutality. He doesn't need that violence to put on a 8 STAR BEST EVER IN THE UNIVERSE match. I get that he has the desire to show what he is still capable of and I respect that but he has nothing to prove. Everyone knows he's one of the best to ever do it and is still on the short list of best in the world right now. I don't want to see him get catastrophically injured over this.

The comment about wanting to blade every night was just sarcasm/hyperbole. Well. Not so much hyperbole I guess. Because they do bleed buckets every single night in AEW. The day they have a show without someone bleeding half to death will be a shocker.

Oh he's perfectly free to do as he pleases. And I'm perfectly free to voice the opinion that I think he's nuts. No one's trying to control him.

This is very similar to how I feel about Moxley. Absolutely love the guy but he is nucking futs.

I think his passion for wrestling outweighs the dangers that he faces by performing the way he does. You can argue that its wreckless and unwise, but citing brain damage as the cause for his decisions is not a conclusion that should be bandied about so carelessly.

Conflicting reports on Thunder Rosa, is she or isn't she injured?

His retirement was literally due to repeated concussions. Not only that, he has admitted he lied about how often he had concussions. It's why people thought he was done for good.

Like he was having seizures from them. Saying his brain was/is damaged in some capacity isn't an opinion at this point.

They should have that right, but at least in terms of WWE, his predecessors ruined that option. Why would WWE let wrestlers do those things today when 10 years from now those guys will try to sue WWE for allowing those risks?

This is literally you trying to dismiss Jim Cornette whenever he comes up. Steph has explained the position pretty well. I don’t think anyone has taken Danielson too literally. They’re just not engaged with the idea of him hurting himself as a second tier guy in glorified comedy promotion.

I think continuing to wrestle the way he was in wwe would be more dangerous than the bloody and vicious, but altogether more grounded style he has reverted to.

No one ever got a concussion from blading, but they certainly did from continuously doing high spots. So im not sure why anyone is worried about Danielson's brain in this regard.

It depends what he’s doing. Enhancement matches against mid-carders and whatever might be lighter, but doing what he does on PPV might not be.

He might break out a dive or two on ppv, but from the matches Ive seen, hes still taking less risks than he used to.

That would be good.

Sounds like CM Punk had a bit of a breakdown at the AEW post-show. M

He cried like a little bitch, thanking Tony for buying ROH, and HIS footage being in the right hands. Of course, that then segued into FEDBAD stuff as always. He complained he doesn't get much in his WWE royalties check anymore because his DVD sales went down with the Network. He complained about WWE's pay structure and how he thought he would make less money once the WWE Network launched. He then talked about how ROH isn't on a crappy app (Peacock although he didn't say it by name). How he loves AEW and they do not sue him like the WWE doctor. He said "lots" of people could have stood up for him, but they didn't because they were worried about their jobs. Then he said "those" people were fired anyways and now work for AEW. Then he started talking about "Weird WWE fans" while crying more. Not the same fans who "chanted for him" for 7 years, the weird ones that do not know other wrestling companies exist because I guess those people don't have internet or TV.

Then he talked about how he is younger now at 43 then Sam Elliott the actor was when the movie Road House came out in 1989. No idea why that means anything, but in Phil's mind it meant it was time to tell Tony (who was sitting there the whole time making his crystal meth faces) that he was ready to be AEW champion, even though he likes that Cowboy.

Then somebody asked him what he learned working with MJF, and it confused him real bad, and he no joke just sat there silent for about 2 minutes. Then he said he doesn't like people, cause he is a cool brooding 14 year old mentally still.

So to recap, just Phil being Phil crying about the same stuff he always cries about.

xrod, buddy, pal, I dislike Punk too but you just take it to the next level. Did he not sign a photograph for you at the airport or something? Yikes my dude.

So recapping what Phil said is wrong? He is the one that said that weird stuff, not me.

Lol Holy fuck

I understand that it is difficult to remain objective when you're emotionally involved. Not a single :rofl: damb!

Literally just wrote what Phil said and did, but I get it.

Literally just responded to what you found newsworthy, but I get it.

(No meme available because you haven’t accomplished anything)

Seems like I got you worked up over CM Punk again. Even though that is never what I am trying to accomplish, you are especially protective of Phil.

Explain to me how this is not newsworthy when there are 2 separate news articles on it from the first site I checked?

https://www.wrestlinginc.com/news/20...-purchase-roh/
https://www.wrestlinginc.com/news/20...amer-goldberg/

But you are right, it was all me. Since you like memes...

The guy who wrote 3 paragraphs about CM Punk’s comments wants to pass off being “worked up” to the guy who wrote a couple sentences in response.

Yo! Did you see the bit where he changed your username to #1-phil-fan? :rofl:

No. Genius though.

a recap would be a little less biased


perhaps even a tad more empathetic

not gonna lie reading xrods post i feel like i saw the punk segment.

xrod is MJF, confirmed

Less biased like leaving out parts that made Phil cry over FEDBAD? That would be a 2 minute media scrum :rofl:

:rofl:

I rest my case.

working fewer dates is safer than blading. but it highlights why blading works so well as a narrative tool. its percieved as violent.


spoiler: bumping is worse on the brain than blading because there's zero risk to the brain when you gig. you arent driving a rail road spike through your fucking skull.

(and if guy wants to take unprotected rail road spikes to the skull for my enjoyment then so be its. he's a big boy.)

You know you are not going to gaslight me right? Just keep being mad that Phil can't stop talking about WWE and I don't just stick my head in the sand when he does. Save your cute Rep comments about Mental Issues I must have because I think CM Punk is full of shit.

And yeah, I wrote three paragraphs about what he said because he said that much. Why would I leave stuff out because it takes more than one or two sentences to cover?

I thought we put an end to the "you spent so much time writing a post" arguments when Screech accused Nerfect of that. Typing 3 paragraphs takes like 2 minutes. Whatever makes you feel like you valiantly defended CM Punk is justified I suppose.

Here, ill fix another post for you.

Your derpbuddy Noid couldn’t even bullshit his way to defending your last desperate “TONYBAD” attempt. That’s very telling. Maybe you shouldn’t try so hard.

So now you cannot count either?

wish RP could post a black cock right here

Noid hates Eli Drake, by the way.

If that’s gonna be your go-to meme, it’s gonna cause a rift in the system.

Bro enough, we get it, CM Punk is your favorite. I am sorry I posted things he said.

I like CM Punk

Nah, man. Punk bad.

That is not fooling anybody!

Here, Phil in his own words.

If anybody loves him as much as Fan professes to, feel free to watch him do and say exactly what I wrote yourselves.

LOL!

EMOTIONS!

GAY!

https://wrestlingnews.co/wwe-news/cm...aid-about-him/

Why did he want to go back if WWE is so bad?

This is CLEARLY a guy who doesn't care if somebody talks about CM Punk, TOTALLY not having a meltdown at all!

We were having a private conversation via rep but if you wanna go all petty and make it public!

A private conversation where you just insult me over and over again? Yeah, I am petty.

You didn’t answer that last question, by the way. I think I hit on something.

I think it would have been illegal for Punk to bang the girls I went to high school with, statutory wise.

Lol this thread is still going

Wait, how old are you??

xrod, what are you gonna do about Wardlow betraying you?

Also, whats Rosie O'donnel like?

Tony does come off like a little weirdo but he just booked one of the best PPV's ever and that's not the first time that's been said. Nobody is perfect, he's doing great.

Tony is doing very well for such a socially awkward motherfucker.

I dunno Im pretty sure that was Austin Areis' first gimmick, and we've seen how that panned out.

Socially Awkward Motherfucking Gang RISE UP!!!!!




*rises alone*




oh....






*sits back down*




just gonna leave now. I have the biggest sad.

Lol, holy shit. #fan fell off the cliff as a poster a long time ago, I knew that. Honestly, you put him on ignore and you don’t miss ANYTHING. He adds no insight into any discussion more. But I had no clue he had gone that fucking obsessive and defensive about this silly little wrestling company that makes grown men cry with its frivolous content.

You described what Punk said accurately, lol. The bit that jumped out to me was the guy randomly bringing up Goldberg while gushing about Bret Hart. Would Punk have even met Goldberg?

And all this when we know — even avid AEW avenger Dave Meltzer has admitted this — Punk turned them down and tried to get back into the WWE when this thing was first announced.

Actually watching and listening to those clips of Punk with TK sitting there…for some reason…is fucking creepy as hell. This company has got the same vibes as actual cults.

All these reps are basically stalkerish...is there a TPWW restraining order possibility?

It was a back and forth conversation. I didn’t post xrod’s side. Bad form.

Noid still trying to get his heat back despite “having me on ignore”. I really did a number on that dipshit the last time I called him out on his bullshit and he tried the “YOU CAN’T FIRE ME, I QUIT!” method.

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

Such a fucking heel.

post the other side

I just put him on ignore. Honestly, best thing to do to the stalkers. I’m sorry if me not giving him attention meant other people had to deal with his needy little ways. But reasoning with the guy is futile. He acts like that’s what he’s here for — he’s honestly just looking for people to engage in his processes with: Target, gaslight, validate self. He’ll make no good points, always claim to win, try to make himself look clever and heroic in the process.

I’m not going to waste my time reading his posts, but I would be SHOCKED if a single one actually addressed the content being discussed. I bet you they’re all focused on xrod and trying to make it about his personality. Has he said anything about what CM Punk actually said?

for the record that is clearly a two-way convo.

Noid has put most of the active wrestling forum posters on ignore. It doesn't mean as much anymore.

Lol Noid hasn’t put anyone on ignore. He just wants to constantly claim to have people on ignore. It’s an obvious awkward flex but it’s less embarrassing than having to dig out of holes when people call call him out for say dumb shit so often.

If you think Noid has anybody on ignore, you are a lunatic.

Of course. Last year when I made him believe that The Rock made an appearance at Survivor Series :roll:

Classic stuff

Wow! Gotta agree with xrod and Noid here.

:rofl:

if fan doesnt post xrods side i will only assume he was being kind and complimentary

INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY

Fan is only mean when he has to be. Norman Smiley had it coming.

lol

This is the right side of history.

Lol, I read this and on my screen I can only see you and Gerty.

:rofl:

Bro are you laughing at your own joke??? :rofl:

Damnit, you got me again. GD got me laughing twice! :rofl:

yowie wowie!

Why did that need to be double posted in the AEW thread?

https://www.wrestlinginc.com/news/20...taker-footage/

Ross spoke about WWE removing his audio from the clip and why he was upset, given that he never left the company high and dry to deserve that.

Yeah, WWE is doing that for no reason, its not like Jim Ross hasn't been shit talking them for 3 years or anything...

Can I get a https://i.imgflip.com/67kd6t.jpg

XROD GET OFF WWE'S DICK THIS ISN'T WAY TO ENJOY A HOBBY. AND YOU'RE UPSETTING PEOPLE!!

If you wanted your work preserved and promoted by the company, maybe you shouldn’t have taken a job with the peoole that could have potentially been a threat?

Nobody BUT JR said anything about WWE. It is stupid for WWE to remove his commentary, but for JR to pretend it is just because he works for AEW is dumb. They did it because he is a bitter ahole who takes every shot he can at them, then wants to play the victim.

oh...meant to post a tweet that miro had re-signed for 4 years lol

I hate that guy. How has he been wearing the same shirt and making the same face for 10 damn years?

I think I saw something where he posted to Reddit or some social media not long after he was on TV for Lesnar's return, and he said he'd bought like two dozen of those shirts so he could always have enough to wear them to events to become part of the show and industry.

Didn't that guy also get mad because he went to some event WM weekend and didn't get recognized/given special treatment?
