LoneWolf&Subs Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) I never heard of this JD guy, and this has to be the most people that have heard of him too. Also Road Dogg is defending him on Twitter somehow. This feels oddly weird, if this is how they’ll “Take him down”.

odessasteps Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) Not surprisingly, there are people saying the Bliss thing is a work. Terry Gordy started at 15. Eaton was 15 or 16. thesz had a match at 71, I think. And Bullet Bob had a match last year at 79. Edited May 25, 2020 by odessasteps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It opened in 2013, so effectively most of the list that @MavsFan77 posted is out the window now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Davey Boy (Sr and Jr) and Dynamite both started at around 15 years old. So did Kid Lykos, who then retired at 22. Joe Nelson (aka Kid Lykos 2) debuted at 14, and is now a three year veteran at 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramo2653 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Another thing ya'll are missing is not defining financially successful versus creatively successful. WWE is very financially successful, and you may or may not think they are creatively successful and if you're of the thought that nothing WWE does is creatively successful, then what's the point of arguing that at all? PC in theory produces people to fill out the whole roster up and down the card, across a variety to backgrounds to cover all bases. If a different company took over WWE, then they'd probably cut some folks from the roster just because it's really bloated and they'd probably look at the live event revenue structure to see if they can rejuvenate it since they'd probably want more revenue coming in. But you'd still want some feeder system and you'd want more control over it compared to being affiliated with a regional indy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven was pretty much the only one caring for the guy IIRC. They actually stopped the match immediately. Raven knew the Villano was hurt, and Randy Anderson called for the bell within seconds. 1 hour ago, odessasteps said: Not surprisingly, there are people saying the Bliss thing is a work.

As I said earlier, I don't think it's a work but Bliss' tweet doesn't sound like it was written by a twenty-something in 2020. that way anymore. "How dare you, sir" sounds like she's either tweeting in character or HG Wells is ghost-writing her tweets. Real people don't use that phrase anymore. So, yeah, I can believe a WWE writer wrote that tweet for her (to take the Youtuber dude down). Writing dialogue that would never be spoken by a real person is a WWE staple.

Zakk_Sabbath Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 That clown guy is such a dipshit. The only fans that matter are Vlad, 90s bowl cut kid, and the woman crying posted a few pages back. And the really tall person in the front row of WWE PPVs who wears like, Dio wizard shirts? They kept to themselves and did it the right way!! Everyone else immediately delete Twitter. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneWolf&Subs Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 I think I went too far by saying it’s a “Work”, but the way she links his tweet almost comes off unintentionally as a promotion for the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That mark has a huge following.. disgraceful that any fan would want to be aligned with him and his channels. There are way too many "JD's" in the wrestling community. Honestly I don't know why Alexa bothered to give this incel freak any attention. I listened to 10 seconds of this guy and that was all I needed to know that I would rather stick a fork into an electrical outlet than listen to to even a second of this subhuman. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the "sir" didn't follow the "how dare you," so we don't need to worry about your hang ups with that exact phrasing. Anyway, I just searched Twitter to make sure I'm not crazy. I promise you that addressing someone as "sir" and using the occasional earnest "how dare you" are still in fashion with some people. I know WWE's writing is blah, but this one ain't on them.

Casey Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Alexa's tweet is written like pretty much all of her other tweets. So either she doesn't run her own account, or she wrote it herself. I'm leaning towards the latter, because she's really not shy on Twitter. I mean, I've seen her respond to chuds tweeting at her about her having a wedgie during a match.

PCO vs. Leatherface, Freddie, Jason, Robocop, Predator... If I win the lotto, that’s my money mark promotion right there. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
