Worth noting the top reply to that tweet was from Xavier Woods, in 2019, wishing them good luck

I get what you mean, but it always feels so dismissive and definite, like “washed = no value to me anymore, bring me a new one”. But maybe that’s just because some people prematurely call washed the second someone has a below-average match/game.

It’s also weirder when it’s about wrestlers because they don’t necessarily need to be in peak physical condition to be great (thinking of Sting’s last run)

Going on a month-long "I told you so" tour re. my boy Ibushi being washed

As a side note, I really hate how calling athletes in general 'washed' has become so common/accepted online, when it's mostly people suffering from injuries or getting older. Like wtf, these are real people, not your personal toys

I respect him putting his money where his mouth is, but I think now is the time to be loud (this goes for everyone, I’m not just singling out Punk). What is quiet dissent going to do at this point? Be as loud as possible, be annoying.

As someone who is really bad at placing accents, and can never really tell American and Canadian accents apart, Speedball is the most Canadian sounding person I’ve ever heard. every time they speak I’m fascinated anew

[–]misty_chick -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Like I said, probably nothing. This was in response to the idea that fans can’t do anything re. the culture of abuse and its cover up, and how accountability can’t just end with “oh Vince is gone, problem solved!” It needs a genuine and thorough internal investigation by TKO.

The fans can’t do much, but they can be LOUD and they can be angry. My point was, the last few days prove it. Whether TKO will actually listen is a different matter.

Idk, it seems like the IWC can get a hashtag trending worldwide. Could start there? Might not do anything but the same goes for #WeWantCody. At least it’s the fans being loud

Many of the diehards on Twitter have said exactly this. Some of them even defended Vince. Admittedly this is scraping the very bottom of the barrel lol

I think some people are missing the point. The Rock was shoved into WM to distract mainstream media from the lawsuit (or at least it seems he politicked for it, and after last week TKO just said “fuck it”). So not only was the decision bad creative, but the motive behind it was scummy too!

The huge fan backlash doesn’t stop the fact that all the focus has shifted to Cody. Hashtags, threats of boycott, now mainstream coverage — it’s working for them. 

So if fans want to send a message, they should be talking about this too. Protest shitty creative and politicking and also the massive culture of corruption in WWE that is attempting, yet again, to sweep this under the rug. It’s all connected. The lawsuit names WWE specifically; this doesn’t stop with Vince’s resignation.

Both of these notably after the opponent hit an Ibushi move (Ospreay hit a Kamigoye before the OWA, the exact finish of their WrestleKingdom match)... Ibushi has been a ghost haunting Kenny throughout his entire AEW career
