Snowden/Evil Clown from here can go fuck right off too with his "I thought it was brave of you to write it" comment to Bruce Mitchell. 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.

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.

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?

Talentless hacks who can't even get a gig writing for shitty sitcoms, supervised by a 75 year old cocaine addict who sleeps 2 hours a night.

Injury if I recall correctly. He was the one who was originally supposed to face Drew at TLC.

Mid 40s? I was thinking he had to be pushing fifty, Snowden's not THAT much younger than I am. I'd be happy to send him my address, I haven't kicked anyone in the head for a bit and he seems like a good target.

Now I’m kinda sad we never got Otunga on tv doing a Rob Naylor gimmick.  Woulda been money.

Vince's contempt for his own customers knows no bounds.

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.

So Wade Keller decided to pull Mitchell's article under the guise of it not being vetted or edited properly.  Either Wade got lazy and let Bruce sneak one in or is full of shit and trying to protect himself

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.

Pretty much the dictionary definition of mealy mouthed. An explanation, no apology, no acknowledgement of the insensitivity and offensiveness of the whole thrust of the article. Poor.

In full agreement. Actually say sorry and mean it. Piss poor.

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.

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.

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

Re: The Bruce Mitchell story, I happened to watch The Simpsons ‘Maison derriere’ episode and the song has been spinning around in my head. It totally works for “we put the dirt in dirtsheets”

You could close down Raw or Impact,
And nobody would care.
Because the heart and soul of the IWC is in its derriere.

Like the scum on your bathtub, with pop ups for pornhub,

Yes we put the dirt in dirtsheets”
