Well he also said people should talk to him and, I guess by virtue of that, each other, to air grievances, all the while airing incorrect grievances with the Bucks instead of, you know, talking to them about it. You can’t talk all this “stand up guy” shit while going off on coworkers in a public setting about some shit you assumed, which turned out to be incorrect to boot.

John E. Dynamite Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 10 minutes ago, Cobra Commander said: at the risk of divulging information that nobody was asking for, one of the Homecoming weekends when I was going to college involved the cops pepper spraying a crowd leaving the scene of a fight on the bar street in town. in a way, the whole Ace Steel thing would be like if Jose Lothario was trying to fight Jim the Anvil Neidhart during the Shawn/Bret wars of 1997 We had a younger student's "cool dad" roll up and party with us one time. Said dad wound up in the hospital getting his stomach pumped. I'm gonna say this was like that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimLivingston Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 And my point is that it’s way easier to blow that up than be measured against it. And I say that because if it was really as bad as everyone says it was, the decision would have already been made. The fact it’s been basically 48 hours since it all went down and there hasn’t been much of anything since says the diffusion is happening and something is being worked out. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also tried moving all the fraternities into one complex (that looked like it was designed by a devotee of Soviet architecture) due to problems with frats burning down. Eventually that arrangement fell apart once the rich alumni fronted the money to get their frats out of that place. Like I can't really imagine a scenario where Hiro Matsuda rolled up to kick some ass alongside Hulk Hogan in the late 80s, but I suspect that scenario wouldn't have worked great for the people on the other side.

I appreciate Tim in this thread and how he's holding up to his convictions, an island unto himself. Let's do an old fashioned DVDVR wager. My gut says that Punk's gone either due to being fired or by choice. Yours says that Punk is just going to get suspended or less and cooler heads will prevail. Loser reviews three matches of the winner's choosing? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimbra Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 With the gift of hindsight it's incredibly funny that, after Darby, basically every Punk feud boiled down to "The fans may love you, but we know what a piece of shit you really are" and nobody batted an eye or put two and two together. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jrag Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Tony needs to start telling all these wrestlers different stories and see what news breaks to find the rats! Seriously though these wrestling insider dudes act like everyone is talking. I’m sure we would all laugh if we knew the real sources for some of this shit. Like, what if these goofs are all talking to The Wingmen? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octopus Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Jokes and fun aside, the craziness of all this has been fascinating to follow.

Greggulator Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Also, if you are going to have a live press conference, you should probably have a PR person at the ready to shut things down if they break down. It’s fine if it is a mostly scripted kayfabe thing to not have someone there but they apparently were not going for that to start with. This dude’s family owns sports teams. They should know that. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 I mean, the Khans don't own good sports teams, but yeah, I figure even the team that had Urban Meyer last year should know a little bit about PR 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously we need Spoiler to fundraise and get help from someone that a billionaire gave a rare coin to accidentally in order to get our love for wrestling back. I think @Octopus should be the one to scream "WE DID IT WRESTLING IS OURS!!!" once we succeed at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
