That's a great match for the fans. I had to think if I should change that to a crazy box office match and go head-to-head, but I didn't.”
He was making the point that going with a bigger name over a talented guy without a major name was an option but he ultimately declined it. Context matters.

By cherry picking do you mean quoting the exact part where he was talking about Matt Sydal?
You got me, I didnt include the parts where he was whining about how WWE was "Aggressive" trying to hurt poor lil ole AEW, and how he had to consider not using a 38 year old 21 year pro who isnt a star but can do good jumps. Or how he pushes young stars unlike Eric Bischoff 25 years ago, when FYI the youngest WCW World Champion was 11 years younger than AEW's youngest World Champion. Hell even Bill Goldberg was only 31 when he won his first World Championship. I guess I should have included that for context because it relates completely to the 1 sentance he brought up and buried Matt Sydal.
My Bad.

I just don’t like that thing you and xrod do where you make bad points in the most arrogant manner imaginable and either refuse to see the fault or pretend not to for trolling sake. It’s a personality disorder that peeves me. We’ll call it Drofording.

The context was we are being bullied, but we are so good we didnt even have to replace that nobody Matt Sydal, because we are WAY more successful than WWE and Eric Bischoff ever have been. Fuck Tony Khan, not just because he is a weird creepy jackass who cant keep his foot out of his month, but also because AEW would be much more likable if this weird creepy jackass stayed out of the public eye and shut the fuck up.
