paintedbynumbers Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 5 hours ago, Casey said: You saying Britt Baker is unprofessional and uses politics backstage isn't a fact, it's some random goober on the internet saying something and treating it as a fact. And people hate on Enzo and Cass for very different reasons - at first, yeah, it was the fact that neither are particularly good at wrestling (good tag team, but solo wise both were shit but at least Enzo was entertaining as a heel). Then it became about things in their personal life that were very real and undisputed facts - one was accused of rape, the other has mental issues so severe that he threatened multiple wrestlers with bodily harm and told Joey Janela he had a gun in his car and was going to kill everyone in the locker room. These things are nothing alike. If you have people on here telling you that your behavior is weird and creepy when it comes to the topic of Britt Baker, maybe just stop it instead of doubling down and treating "what you've heard" or whatever as a god given fact. I don't like Britt Baker either, but you're taking it several levels beyond "I do not enjoy this wrestler on my TV". except I'm not just a random goober as you put it. I've seen things first hand. I've worked shows on commentary, I've managed, done ring announcing, on air roles etc and have seen it. I also have friends who are women that have stated how unprofessional she is. Believe what you want. Glenn Jacobs probably is a better dentist too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimo Necro Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I feel bad for Britt, she’s been in a no-win situation from day one. Brandy is doing the more gimmicky stuff, Riho and Shida are better in ring and Statlander has come from nowhere. At this point Britt feels like the female Shawn Spears. Also, add in that Britt Baker isn’t even the best Brit Baker on TV. That’s Paul Hollywood. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodear Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Joey Janella, Kip Sabina and Penelope Ford are having quite the ... charming ... tweet fest this evening regarding sexual organs. Topics include their size, location, and ability to get Penelope a job. It’s all rather tawdry, I dropped my monocle at least twice. But not a great look for any of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I mean, it's probably just a preview of what you're going to get on TV now that Janela and Sabian are in a feud after last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Yeah this would be a perfectly fine angle on the indies especially hardcore promotions like GCW. On a company that is trying to get national exposure this is a horrible idea. I can't imagine Tony Khan enjoying an angle that basically involves Penelope Ford's umm verbal skills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 It'll probably be considerably less graphic on TV. This Twitter shit is just supplemental content since I highly doubt they'll be getting huge chunks of TV time to further this program. Right now it's just three people talking shit on Twitter, where it becomes a problem is if Janela goes on national TV and says Penelope only got a contract because she was his girlfriend, or if she cuts a promo about how much more well endowed Kip Sabian is compared to Janela. I doubt it gets to that point, though. But, if it does, I don't care, because I'd enjoy it. If any of that makes it to TV, then you know Tony Khan is perfectly okay with this sort of thing. If it doesn't, then you're right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt the same after the loss, but it’s an easy fix. Champion challenges Cody either out of respect or jealousy. 18 hours ago, Dewar said: Are P&P more over now? They won the series over the Lucha Brothers in Impact, and were treated as a top act. Right now they are just a tag team trading wins back and forth. I think they should have gone over SCU for the belts already, giving all the gold to the Inner Circle. I’m not much of a fan of SCU, but this company is bound and determined to make their titles matter. The So Cals dropping the gold even a month after their tournament win would’ve been too soon. Wwe this is not. Patience is a virtue and you can be certain Santana and Ortiz are clutching gold some time in 2020. Also, from what I’ve seen of their every aew appearance they’re well over. Never saw them in Impact as I find that promotion to be complete dogshit - booking, not talent wise. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, that either P&P or The Bucks should be champs right now to legitimize the titles as headlining belts. I'll say that yes, Proud & Powerful are more over now after their feud with the Bucks than before because they looked great against the YB and just about 250 people watch Impact. They should win their next feud though. If they lose that, then we can talk about them losing steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paintedbynumbers Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Some of the local workers have been saying that AEW has signed/will be signing Dylan Bostic. Interesting choice if true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonidas Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I just want to say I like Britt Baker. She's average enough in the ring sure, but compared to some of the Diva division we've been exposed to she's great. She has a vicious and over finisher, and I think she's going to be a really good heel. I hope she has a very Happy New Year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodear Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I didn't know who Dylan Bostic was and looked him up. There's a 26 minute clip on Youtube of him working heel against Wardlow and he's pretty much (based on an obviously limited sample size) my kind of worker. He passes the Rip Rogers test that you know he's a heel just by the way he walks to the ring. He's appropriately scummy and spent a lot of time actually being a heel rather than trying to work back and forth. He didn't seem ashamed to show ass and got his comeuppance multiple times. It was a good little shit vs. big face match. Liked it, would recommend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liked it, would recommend. not sure if you researched deeper or not by your mention of Rip Rogers, but Dylan spent a ton of time training with Rip down in OVW. Dylan was married to Ray Lyn aka Chantily from WOW also. I was at the match vs Wardlow it was a fun match. Dylan's a good Memphis style heel. Glad you enjoyed his work!

Dewar Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 New AEW pet peeve: How Justin Roberts pronounces Moxley's first name.

HarryArchieGus Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) I liked seeing Roberts in the long winter jacket this past week. I will go on record as loving his ‘long Jon’ Moxley intro.
