OCTOBER 2019 WRESTLING CHAT.


Recommended Posts

As far as who in (or out of) WWE is supporting Jordan Myles, he did call for people to make their profile pictures black and white as a gesture of solidarity. And EC3's at least is monochrome now. 

If the timing worked better, you could claim the entire Cincinatti Bengals squad were on his side yesterday too. But that was probably a coincidence.

I don't know how Seth could even make this worse, but he got talent for that, I'm sure that he'd manage to surprise us all.

“It don’t matter if you’re black, or white, you don’t know what it’s like until you step into @WWERollins world. Tonight is no different when I Burn It Down for the #WWEUniverse to see!”

They showed a replay on Sunday afternoon on Fox after football, so you're gonna need to add those numbers too to get...the real number!

AEW WILL NEVER WIN! MUAHAHAHA

A one hour replay? Please... Face it, you WUM’s have lost this week’s leg of the  “marathon”.

These new acronyms suck. 

No they're fantastic.

Wow, DVDVR is so full of arcane in-jokes and history, I pity any newcomer wandering in from the barbarian lands of wreddit. 

Just like I pity any newcomer trying to get his head around the WWE product!!!

*nails AEW colours to the mast*

In all seriousness, I cannot believe how neurotic folks are getting about ratings and their preferred brand (not around here for the most part, in those other places...) Is it a reflection of increasingly fractured and tribalistic political environment? Or simply young'uns who have never had first-hand experience of competition at the top level of American professional wrestling?

Finn's turn was so beautifully executed, as was Cody breaking into the Inner Circle's room with his scarf-wrapped fist, as was Brock brutalising everybody, as was Eddie Kingston's impassioned promos on NWA Powerrrrrrr. Give me all of it, I love wrestling.

Seth deepfaked into Michael Jackson "Black or White" video is my least favorite intrusive thought today.

I didn't know ACH had this much emotion and vigor about himself. Here I thought the WWE would never hire a New Jack type of black dude but eventually they found The Spook Who Sat By the Door. That's karma, baby.

As for the Jay Lethal tweet, that seems like some personal shit between them. If I'm mad at another black dude (not so much lately as I'm pretty chill nowadays.. at least IMO) especially one who I've had a contentious working relationship with, Uncle Tom is probably one of the first things that will be lobbed out there if I truly know the guy. Then again, someone can play the jealousy angle (although Jay Lethal has been wrestling forever and still in ROH). I just don't get the we need to stick together thing or For the Culture or w/e this bullshit is. Last time I checked, all the black guys in the wrestling biz don't sit around and negotiate their contracts together. Honestly, I always felt the WWE presented black wrestlers as buffoons or dumb bucks anyway. I've never felt some personal attachment to any of the guys they've hired in this era. So when stuff like this comes back to bite them in the ass hard, I really cherish these moments. Fuck em. I'm just happy there is at least one guy with a backbone. Wish there was more, but I'll take what I can get.
