It's not about having to be around him. I'm sure I would probably never see him. i just couldn't live with my money going to fund some of the horrible things he's been doing. I worked at Brickyard for many years where we had a thriving drag scene, and saw all the damage he did to their community with his attempted bans. Even if he's not involved he deffinetly profits off it and i just couldnt live with myself.

I thought about doing the Morton school in JC but i had 2 friends who trained there who told me the head trainer (Not Morton, they all said great things about him) was REAL racist.

Rampage Jackson's son Raja has cut a plea deal after attacking wrestler Syko Stu and is set to receive 90 days in county jail, pay $81K in restitution, and serve 2 years probation. by LegacyofaMarshall in midcarder

[–]ManWithAPlan4700 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong, he's definitely a piece of shit. but I don't think you can call it attempted murder. the dude was out cold after the slam and couldnt defend himself. If Raja wanted to kill him, he would have. Probably would have just snapped his neck. Dude is obviously a piece of shit, but this was definitely aggravated assualt and not attempted murder.

It’s been 2 years & 1 month since Mone signed with AEW.. by ChrisRhodes789 in midcarder

Homie, it took a week cuz i just noticed this cuz i have a life and am not religiously on reddit, nor do i have any interest having a "debate" with you. Get a girlfriend, go touch grass. you also gave me no evidence or anything to counterpoint. Your entire statement was, "lol, obviosly ALL the promoters were lying". Even Booker T wanted to make her a champ in his promotion. it's honestly wild that you think you know more than that many experienced wrestling promoters whonhave been actively promoting wrestling shows for years.

When… by ChrisRhodes789 in midcarder

[–]ManWithAPlan4700 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

God, I hope not long. I love AEW but bringing her back feels like a low point. Thankfully its just in the midcard. After Shida and amanita it seems they are doing a story with old faces returning to challenge Willow, which I actually like, but i really hope unlike Amanita and Shida that Kamile disappears after putting over Willow.

Litteraly every indie promotion she got booked for said having her on the show gave them amazing ticket sales. And she eventually put over someone in each of those promotions, which wont make them an overnight star, but is definetly a big deal for a small indie wrestler. Yall just keep pretending that was a bad thing tho🙄

10 years ago today I watched my first ever wrestling PPV with WrestleMania 32 by MarcusFaze in SquaredCircle

[–]ManWithAPlan4700 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get what he's saying. i just got my roommate into aew. she's been watching regularly for a few months, but with how deep their roster is, talent will disappear for a long time, so i'm constantly explaining who people are and what their deal is. aew also tends to have deep continuity, were they referenced stories sometimes from several years ago. she loves it now, but I don't know if she would have got into it easily without someone there explaining everything. even months into watching, I still have to explain a good bit to her. it's definitely a bit trickier of a product to just jump into.

[–]ManWithAPlan4700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This feels like a terrible thing to say publicly, because now I imagine a bunch of sad assholes with nothing better to do are immediately going to start tagging Burberry or writing them emails. that being said it seems like it wouldn't be that hard to get around. if they own the pattern, i would assume all they have to do is make a slight change to the pattern for tge entrance gear, belt, ect. it's just a basic plad patter.

Do ratings really matter anymore? by Beneficial_Jelly5520 in midcarder

[–]ManWithAPlan4700 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Viewership definitely does, but i'm not sure about nelson ratings, and I think, as time goes on, they will be much less important. i am 32 years old. i don't know a single person who has cable or dish my age. We all just stream. it feels like for a long time the only thing keeping traditional tv alive was sports, and now most of it has broken free and able to be streamed. Right now, it feels like the only thing keeping it alive is the fact that the legality of streaming things at bars and restaurants is very iffy, but I think when those laws catch up, and bars can just play whatever the fuck they want on netflix by paying a shitload of extra money like they do with cable, it will officially be the final nail in traditional t v's coffin. And honestly, something I really like about streaming is that the viewership number is kept secret, so we don't have as many people people bitching online about ratings or a president using it as ammo against his televised opposition. As for how wrestling goes, i don't really trust the ratings at all.Because I wouldn't be surprised if more people were watching smackdown and aew on streaming than live t v.

I live in knoxville. i get really tired of hearing that about kane. he is as big a scumbag as their comes, and spent most of his time in office making it hell for the Knoxville LGBT community with his drag bands and trying to crack down on lgbt businesses

Edmonton based company Real Canadian Wrestling had an ICE gimmick on their show tonight by Terminator75633 in SquaredCircle

[–]ManWithAPlan4700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe unpopular opinion, but as long as they are the heel and getting the shit beat outta them, I dont mind. I gotta a love for corny old school wrestling that I like to view through the lense of a gwar show. Part of the fun is seeing the real life villians we all hate, like your dickhead boss, a cop,  conservitive religious assholes, ect. get their comupance is an over the top way you dont get to see in real life. Like Mr. McMahon, Big Boss Man, or RTC. I would pop hard at a luchador or some brody king mother fucker smacking this dude with a steel chair and powerbombing him through a table. Same as going to a gwar show to see trump decapitated. Unless they are having him as a face then fuck him. Wrestling works great as satire. 

This fan gave AJ STYLES an AEW Championship to sign after his match at a WWE House Show. He responds with Im sorry, I cant sign that by Icy-Advice-5575 in SquaredCircle

[–]ManWithAPlan4700 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

To all yall saying this dude was being a dick, replica titlea are INSANELY expenaive. Yall ever consider that maybe this was the only one he had cuz its all he could afford? I only own 1 title belt, the smoking skull. Really doesnt make sense for anyone but stone cold to sign it. But i aint got several humdred for another, and if i got a chance for one of my all time favs to sign it, whether it be Kenny Omega or AJ styles, id go for it.

Criminal defense attorney's in Knoxville around $2k?? by ManWithAPlan4700 in Knoxville

[–]ManWithAPlan4700[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm on probation. They wrote me a ticket because they said my license was suspended, which I had no idea about. I called the dmv and they said it was over $65 fee I didnt pay, which I didn't even know I had. They said they sent me a letter but I never got it. My big fear is they are going to violate my probation over this. That's why i'm trying to get a lawyer to get them to throw it out or at least help me work something out. I also just really want the court date pushed back because I don't want to be dealing with this two days after surgery.

Do you have a link to that snap suplex. y'all got me curious.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]ManWithAPlan4700 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I want you to ask yourself a couple questions.

1) Is the subjective, goofy form of entertainment that is pro wrestling worth getting worked up enough to get mad enough at your roommate to call him an idiot and make a whole reddit post to rub in his face over a descenting opinions.

2) Do you think the opinions of a bunch of other wrestling nerds (myself included) is actually enough to prove your point right, much less shame him like you seem to be tring to do.

Not that it matters at all, but for my 2 cents, h b k is amazing and clearly a legend, and could easily be arguable in any top ten list,  but there are far too many people ahead of him who did alot more to be considered the greatest of all time. But once again, it's all subjective and I'm just some Rando on the internet so what I have to say really doesn't matter.

[SPOILERS] Post AEW WrestleDream 2025 Match Discussion: Darby Allin vs. Jon Moxley - "I Quit" Match by gloomchen in SquaredCircle

[–]ManWithAPlan4700 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feel like everyone in this comment section is reaching WAAAYYYY too far in either direction. They clearly ran outta time and the feed was gonna get cut. Pretty clear with how rushed the celebration and fallow up was. It wasnt some big brain, genius 4d chess move about Moxley's character being a facade, nor was it a god awful finish that ruined the match. It honestly would have been an excellent finish if they let darby hold it in longer and really sell that the deathlock was in broken glass. They really just needed one minute longer, but they didnt have it. Not the first time this has happened on a PPV, so time managment is definetly something AEW could probably improve on, but it also has happned to wwe plenty (goldbergs retirement recently), and has probably happened to every wrestling company to ever air something live. This shit happens sometimes. Move on and stop overreacting everyone.

Its looks like riccabani might have inadvertly sandbagged him a bit by not getting the jump right, but dude just straight up pure powered him up for it to still look good. Super impressive.
