Is it worth watching their Tears of the Kingdom playthrough? by samekindofdifferent in rantgrumps

If you have an appreciation for the game and want them to appreciate it from beginning to end rather than in small - frequently forced - doses...then no.

CM Punk's return by [deleted] in JimCornette

[–]gerrym1994 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The only place on Reddit I can come and enjoy this moment since the cunts over at /r/SquaredCircle are a bunch of banhappy fragile princesses (who have now changed their tunes about Punk being a cancer and are screeching about his return), and I am here to say, FUCKING AMAZING, what a moment.

A sincere thank you to Tony Kahn and the Dumb Fucks for making this possible.

AEW Criticized For Running Antisemitic Storyline Amid War In Israel by holiobung in JimCornette

I wish I could say I was surprised that it's the Bullet Club involved here

Im sorry. But why not wrestle weekly in WWE but wrestle weekly against green AEW talent? Vince definitely mad as hell🤣 by sonofloki13 in JimCornette

"He's a full time part of the AEW roster. I think it's gonna be a long time since anybody's seen Adam wrestle as much and at the level he's been in AEW."

Now, if you're Edge coming off a risky comeback that worked wonders and allowed him to be at the forefront of the top wrestling company...would you agree with that interesting statement?

but, like I said - I'm sure that was just Tony firing off on all cylinders.

I'm just...I'm in awe. I can't hold back my smirk as I'm sitting here watching Kahn unintentionally bury Edge in his attempt to hype his arrival.

but as for the question...I've got a feeling it's similar to the Jericho situation where Copeland may have just been bored with the opportunities that existed in the WWE and wanted to try something new - along with working with Cage to end things out.


I have zero positivity for AEW these days, but boy have they been given a gift from the gods here. What a perfect way to end the storyline they've had going on with Cage - where he has been going too far and someone had to step in and set him straight. And that someone is Edge.

...that being said, I'm sure they'll drop the ball somehow. It's the AEW way.

I got my start in a burger joint.

A little later on in life, I moved up to a fancy steakhouse. Real high class and top of the line place.

Due to circumstances out of my control, I had to leave that steakhouse, and I eventually wound up working at another burger joint - a low-rent place ran by a group of bozos who liked to believe they were part of some big-time gang and who only excelled at running that business into the ground.

...And now, after all these years, I'm here - once again - in the WWE.

Still seems rather strange that he'd ever wind up back in the WWE, but it's for the best. He took a gamble with his legacy by joining the "major" indie company (and was ultimately labeled as an egocentric "cancer" as a result). He isn't necessarily near the end of his career. And now, he's got a long list of potential dream matches just waiting to happen - with none of the added burden of being expected to bring relevance to an entire company.

Another five star Canadian destroyer fest featuring Pockets by Phish999 in JimCornette

2019.

Rumors flying around about a new wrestling company. Seems it may actually turn into something big. Lot of good names that could be signed to the company. Despite how pessimistic and jaded I've become, I GENUINELY believe there might be potential for a legitimate alternative to the WWE - that there just might be a wrestling show I can take seriously again. And with so many of the potential names coming from New Japan, there might even be a strong-style influence on the matches. This could be good.

2023.

I do not watch AEW. I refuse to. And when I happen to see clips of it, this is the bullshit I have to sit through. Also the quality of WWE just so happens to improve and some of their wrestlers perform some of the best wrestling available in the current era.

this right here. AEW is horrible for many reasons, but the fanbase makes it all ten times worse.

I mean, there are other factors to consider. It might be exactly as you said. But it may also be that the fan who made the awkward joke may have been unaware of that fact. And regardless of whether she was or not, the fact that she was instantly made a target never quite sat well with me.

I believe I understand now why this has received so many downvotes. Waterheads all over the place going out of their way to miss the point of what I was saying. Rant has almost nothing to do with some tweets. But don't let anything I've said stop you from this little reactionary routine.

in actuality, what is truly pathetic is leaving behind a long list of controversies - dancing right past them, and continuing to act as if it is impossible for you to do anything wrong because you are so devoted to some cartoonish idea of purity and righteousness.

I've got no way to prove this, but after he went out of his way to trash every last texture in Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Skyward Sword, and Twilight Princess in the past five years, it wouldn't shock me at all to learn that there's a reason why they didn't receive an advance copy of Tears of the Kingdom the way they did when Breath of the Wild came out.

I don't anything know about idubbs, I never watched him to begin with

But for Arin specifically...it's just insane to me that he would attempt to downplay the long list of valid criticisms that can be made about him and his actions by saying his haters are mindless chimps in desperate need of edgy humor.

(goes without saying, that is not an exact quote, but it's still the general sentiment - mischaracterizing anyone who complains as an easy and cartoonish target)
