There was nothing "brave" about what Bruce wrote. It was fucking stupid. Snowden is about the least bright bulb out there. Feels like he's a hair away from coming back on here to proliferate his dumb as fuck MMA opinionz. Snowden has always been a jerk. He thinks that because he wrote an instantly-remaindered book on MMA that he's some sort of expert. Fuck him and the horse he rode in on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 He's actually worse now, than he was when he was on here. He's decided he's an internet tough guy, so if anyone criticises him (and he goes all out to invite criticism) he's all "PM me your address and we'll settle this". Dude is in his mid 40s by now, and I've met eight year olds with more emotional maturity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eoae Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Ot, whatever happened to Brawn Stroman? He was on the RAW after SS and they seemed to be setting up a heel turn (he attacked Adam Pearce after Pearce introduced Brawn with the phrase "Last but not least..." and Brawn took it as an insult even though he was literally the last person in the ring given a chance to speak. Ugh. Who writes this stuff? Where was I...?) I don't think he's appeared since. Injury? Covid? Christmas gig as the Abominable Snowman in a live-action revival of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer?

hammerva Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 So Wade Keller decided to pull Mitchell's article under the guise of it not being vetted or edited properly.

Guest Edwin Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJCaURqj_PY/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link That's crazy. I remember MVP walking out with a black belt that said strong style in MLW once and laughing as it was lame, but the dude just won a BJJ tournament at purple belt and got promoted to brown belt which is pretty wild. He's 47. I'm a lot younger than him. That's an inspiration for me to get back in shape and start hitting the mats again.

Casey Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 and Bruce stands by his article and has nothing further to say at this moment. No apology from anyone, not even the owner of the fucking website. Disgusting. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I'll ask my Mitchell question here. I've read some of their stuff over there and listened to Wade Keller's podcasts before but I've never been a big reader/listener over there. What is Mitchell's relationship to Keller? Are they best friends or what's the deal? Because if I'm Keller... I don't think I'd want my writers acting like this. I'd look to part ways. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Between the Bruce Mitchell shit and WWE fans getting on Brian Myers case for him being upset there wasn't a proper salute to Brodie Lee, it is unfortunate to realize that everything good about the IWC on Saturday can be flushed down very quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I barely know who Keller and Mitchell are (it's been at least 5-10 years since I surfed the Torch website and I'm completely unfamiliar with Mitchell), but the statement Keller put out about removing the column said Mitchell had written for him for 30 years. I've never heard much about Mitchell before this, so I'm guessing he's not a lightning rod for controversy. All things considered, I"m assuming he's earned the benefit of the doubt from Keller (since Keller presumably knows him irl whereas the rest of us don't). I'm guessing the hysteria will die down in a couple weeks and things will blow over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Mitchell has made lightening rod on a few cases. Probably the most memorable ones was an article he wrote about the Gangstas in SMW especially during the Wise WV riot. I remember one where he explained why the New Day was a racist gimmick. I guess his most recent issue was his piece about CWF Mid Atlantic problems a couple years ago involving Brad stutts and his friends 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
