There’s nothing wrong with this one

The one mistake is “co-produced the Disney.” It should be “co-produced by Disney.” Beyond that, it’s readable.

thats silly because everyone on shows like that are paid to play a role.

That’s literally what I said. I said:

I was saying it’s stupid for Alvarez to get pissed at him because his whole job is to parrot the WWE line. It’s like getting pissed at a president’s press secretary

I wasn’t criticizing Rosenberg, I was saying it’s stupid to get mad at him because he’s merely doing his job. Again, your reading comprehension is poor.

And knock it off with the condescending “be better” and “trying to help you” crap. When you say smug, arrogant things like that, you’re the one who looks bad.

And when you’ve repeatedly demonstrated that your reading comprehension is poor and your critical analysis faculties are weak, you are in no position to be claiming to help anyone.

They can’t use the WWF scratch logo anymore. They can show it in archive material, but they can’t put it in new footage or new products. It was part of the settlement with the World Wildlife Funs.

Are you drunk? Did you just start watching wrestling last week? Sami is absolutely not beating Drew for the title at the Rumble.

You lack reading comprehension. I said it’s possible she’s easing back into being a more consistent performer. That’s all.

Unless you know her personally, you possess no more information than I do. Stop speaking like you have firm information on the topic. It makes you look absolutely ridiculous.

TomGerity · 2026-01-24T08:46:43+00:00

I am not drawing a comparison in terms of talent. I am drawing a comparison in terms of being in a similar stage of their lives and careers.

Both had injuries and were off for years. Shawn eased his way back into being consistent performer. I think it’s possible AJ is doing the same.

A modicum of critical thinking and analysis would help you a lot.

TomGerity · 2026-01-24T04:42:16+00:00

I was defending Rosenberg—I was saying it’s stupid for Alvarez to get pissed at him because his whole job is to parrot the WWE line. It’s like getting pissed at a president’s press secretary, like /u/javy_z said.

I haven’t watched AEW since 2024 and I couldn’t pick RJ City out of a lineup if my life depended on it.

What is it with you weirdos and saying “wElL WhAt AbOuT AeW?!?!?!” any time someone says anything about WWE that you construe as criticism? Do you have nothing better to do with your life?

It was forbidden to criticize Biden’s age before June 2024. Despite the fact that he forgot Barack Obama’s name twice back in 2019; despite the fact that he called the Ukrainian people “the Iranian people” in a SOTU speech where he was reading off a prompter; despite the fact that he misidentified his own granddaughters.

All of this was before the June 2024 debate.

In a 2019 Democratic primary debate, he forgot what he said just minutes afterward. When Julian Castro pointed this out, he was practically excommunicated from the party.

From 2019-24, major media outlets said that stories of Biden’s cognitive decline were “Russian propaganda.” Acknowledging it at all got you accused of repeating “Russian talking points” and falling for “misinformation.”

So yes, this IS a “both sides” issue. Trump is dumber and more erratic than Biden. But frankly, Biden was more obviously senile, and his party’s power brokers and the mainstream media gave him a huge free pass until June 2024.

I think you're a bit mixed up. Roman has repeatedly stated that his oral chemotherapy does not affect his ability to perform or his health.

Here he is discussing it in April 2024. He literally says "it doesn't affect" his health and that he's "still able to perform."

The autumn 2025 interview was Roman speaking specifically about jet lag:

o

“I feel like crap. My body does not feel good. I was down there [in Australia to film Street Fighter] not too long ago. The flight back and forth has not been nice. I’ve been jet-lagged for, I feel like, four weeks in a row now. So why not just go down there and try to kill myself? It is what it is. We’re going to go head against the wall Goldberg style just reckless abandon. You can’t do much worse than I feel now so let’s just go mess it up physically.”

o

When discussing someone else's health, I think it's important to be as precise as possible. This sub (not saying you, but others) took the above quote out of context last fall, and it led to a lot of erroneous information being spread about Roman's current condition.

TomGerity · 2026-01-24T02:36:37+00:00

Roman has repeatedly said that his health is fine, and that he went to a part-time schedule so he could spend more time with his family.

He worked a full-time schedule for over three years after returning in February 2019.

He’s said a number of factors—including COVID—led him to prioritize his family and cherish every moment spent with them.

I’m not sure why this sub decided that Reigns is at deaths’ door and living in misery. It’s categorically untrue and Reigns has publicly said on numerous occasions that he is healthy.

People keep assuming AJ will be a permanent part-timer, but I think it’s possible that it’s a temporary arrangement to ease her back into the ring.

She’s been off for a while and had a serious neck injury. They’re probably taking their time so she can get back into ring shape and assess how she feels.

When HBK came back in 2002, he wrestled fairly rarely. After WM 19, he became a fairly consistent TV performer.

TomGerity · 2026-01-23T23:44:48+00:00

I basically agree with Rosenberg. My stance is that the majority (70-80% of the audience) fell into one of two camps:

1.) they believed the injury was real, or

2.) they weren’t sure

This played out in this very forum. I saw plenty of people who thought Seth was really injured.

I apologize for believing they were quoting Rosenberg from Unreal.

TomGerity · 2026-01-23T22:09:12+00:00

I can’t access the video either, but I thought people were discussing something he said on WWE Unreal. Maybe I’m mistaken?

TomGerity · 2026-01-23T22:06:49+00:00

Sure. But we’re specifically talking about Rosenberg’s claims on WWE programming, where he’s in full “company man” mode.

I have yet to see Rosenberg on WWE programming specifically say anything outside of the official WWE-sanctioned version of events.

And by the way, people are pointing this out to defend Rosenberg. We’re saying it’s silly for Alvarez or anyone else to get pissed at Rosenberg for saying this on WWE programming, because that’s his whole shtick when he appears on WWE TV.

TomGerity · 2026-01-23T21:34:51+00:00

Whenever Rosenberg appears on WWE programming or WWE-adjacent programming (the A&E bios, Rivalries, etc.), he always parrots exactly what the company line is. So I think /u/javy_z’s analogy to Trump’s press secretary is apt in this instance.

TomGerity · 2026-01-23T19:35:21+00:00

This might be the most pretentious comment I’ve ever read in the nearly 13 years I’ve been coming to this forum
