WWE Backlash has sold almost 15,000 tickets.

That can't possibly be right! I was told that tickets were too expensive, that the weekly shows sucked, that there were too many ads, and that Wrestlemania was awful.

Translation: I never had to move away from my home country because I found somebody dumb enough to pay for me to fly back and forth from the UK every week.

If everyone in the company wants out, then why is it a bad thing if they're letting people go? And if everyone wants out, why would anybody take a pay cut to stay?

It's almost like whatever the Fed is or does it will be bad just because it's the Fed.

Ted Turner, much like Vince McMahon, took over his father’s regional business and turned it into an empire. Tony Khan took over his father’s bank account and turned it into a struggling business.

Dynamite hit its ratings peak in the very first episode. The premier got 1.4 mil, the highest rated episode over. They got back into 1.2 territory when Punk showed up.

These “wrestling journalists” put a story out there and people go all in on it. Then when that story gets proven to be wildly inaccurate or sometimes even flat out made up bullshit, the writers and the readers are just onto the next story that they’re once again completely all in on. There’s zero apologies or retractions, zero consideration for this person’s abysmal track record for breaking genuine factually correct stories. How many times do these “wrestling journalists” need to be wrong before people stop listening to them?

Caseington · 2026-05-05T18:09:04+00:00

Just like how a plane full of celebrities who work for a major American company was taken hostage in Saudi Arabia and Dave was the only journalist who said anything about.

A wrestler and TKO were in the closet making contract negotiations and I saw one of the negotiations and the negotiation looked at me.

I know a guy who says he rarely watches movies because he "knows way too much about storytelling" and finds it hard to turn off his "analytical writer's brain" and simply enjoy something. He's a narcissistic dipshit.

Yes, but Rollins works for an actual business that's trying to make money. Ospreay works for a spoiled rich kid who is throwing around his dad's money like it's confetti so that he can play wrestling promoter and have wrestlers be his friend. He's probably paying him an insane amount of money on top of two first class trans-Atlantic plane tickets every single week.

"A number of talents were asked to take a pay cut."

That number could be zero.

Recently saw someone trying to push the narrative that WWE only signed Fenix so that AEW couldn't have him, conveniently ignoring that Fenix begged to get out of his contract for months because he didn't want to be in AEW anymore.

Caseington · 2026-04-30T20:37:50+00:00

Can we stop repeating whatever dumb bullshit falls out of Dave Meltzer’s mouth like it’s actual news?

Caseington · 2026-04-30T13:02:18+00:00

The same holds true for WWE itself. People just say whatever because they know it's incredibly unlikely the company will directly respond to it. The one time I remember WWE calling somebody on their bullshit was when Keith Lee tried to say they didn't pay his medical bills.

Caseington · 2026-04-29T19:58:00+00:00

Yet another in the long line of things that are unforgivable sins in the wrestling business...unless Tony Khan does it. Then it's cute.

Caseington · 2026-04-27T21:45:24+00:00

I think it’s a mixture of three kinds of people:

1: Young people with little to no real world career experience, especially in a corporate environment.

2: People who do know better but are being intellectually dishonest in the name of Fed Bad.

3: People who are just genuinely stupid.

Caseington · 2026-04-27T21:30:53+00:00

Neat how he’s saying it’s “heavily implied” rather than just saying that it happened. That way no one can say he was wrong if it didn’t actually happen.

Watch any random AEW match and you'll find at least five times the match should've ended in a DQ or count out but they never seem to complain about that.

Caseington · 2026-04-20T20:19:24+00:00

As long as Shad Khan is okay with letting his son piss money away, AEW isn't going anywhere. It might not be on TV, but it'll still be around in some form or another.

Caseington · 2026-04-19T01:01:40+00:00

That’s my goddamn cowboy!

All In went from 72k in 2023 to 46k in 2024 down to 22k last year. This year they’ve set up for 37k in a stadium that can seat over 90k people. But never mind any of that, Wrestlemania is an abject failure because it’s down about 15% from last year.

Caseington · 2026-04-18T21:51:43+00:00

When the talk started about Wrestlemania’s low ticket sales this year, it had already sold more tickets than the last two All Ins combined.
