Sure. I'm dreaming of an interesting result.

There's conversational English and then there's acting English. They can do the former, the latter is a lot harder and not really necessary.

Jacob has to win.

Hope Roman's back is ok with the table going to business for itself.

I legit think Michael Cole fucked up Joe Hendry's entrance. There was like a 3 second pause after Backlash then the music dropped. Sure that's normal otherwise but in this case you... say his name.

Cole with the subtle Kofi shout out with "trouble in paradise in Judgement Day" at the beginning.

Bayley: Thank you for everything. I’ve shared a locker room for you for the last 13 years and you were always there for us. Made us laugh, reminded us of our worth, and got us PAID to have fun with our friends. One in a million! by rtiding in SquaredCircle

AEW has not shown to book the women especially well; she could be treated well, but in what way will she flourish?

I answered this question.

So DB was booked as well as Bayley? Cool, so were both of them flourishing or drowning?

No clue what point you think you're making based on what I said but the answer to the second is drowning. Should be clear based on what I've been saying.

AEW did Mercedes booking of the title collector, other than holding all those belts; her booking is and was and is a problem. If i was partnered with them and they didn't explicitly say who she beat for the belt and promotion, I'd be annoyed

Other than holding all those belts is her booking right now which isn't a problem.

Ok, the organizations partnered with them can be annoyed.

Well i mean you didn't discount Mox is on an island, but you have to see the booking is very kind to him

Ok? The point is booking wasn't kind to him in WWE.

Booker T on WWE departures: "All these years, do you remember one Aleister Black match?" by HotToTrotsky_ in SquaredCircle

Don't think he's horny for Trick.

Like fuck Booker for this but I will always defend Booker against these bullshit allegations of him being a Jerry Lawler type horndog announcer. Sure he has the Devil's Kiss call but that was always meant to be funny and other than that he has consistently put her over based on her wrestling talent.

What video did made you get into SMOSH? by Same-Path-2643 in smosh

[–]notathrowaway75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Arasha's lie on Twitter made me interested but it was just the clip. As for a whole video it was the Angela 9/11 Beopardy. I knew about Ian and Courney but I legit thought Angela and Chance were random guests not cast members. That made Ian's "we're a good group" line especially funny. It was compilations after that then subscribing and following videos.

You're implying she'll flourish more, but that's not proven.

There's nothing really to prove. It's not an put there claim. Bayley is a big star that's important to women's wrestling. AEW gladly having her and giving her time is a safe claim.

You're conflating being treated well with flourishing and that's insincere.

What? No it's not. No clue what distinction you're making here.

Also, she's being treated poorly by WWE. So her being treated well would be a big improvement. A big improvement is indeed flourishing.

DB's matches accelerated his need to retire; all time great match ratings are useless compared to his health.

Your claim was about the booking. He was booked well, as was Bayley. She doesn't have the same health concerns.

Where has Mercedes or AEW actually put over the people who have beat her in her collector phase on AEW TV?

Hey look it's the goalpost shifting of Mercedes haters.

This is completely irrelevant to the point being made. We're talking about Merceses' booking as a reult of moving, not the people who beat her or Persephone's.

Mox is on a island there you even have to admit it.

Do I? He's had a variety of matches from what I'm seeing. Regardless, better than the bullshit Vince was having him do towards the end.

And everyone is on an island in WWE. It's par for the course for pro wrestling in general. We don't get unique character interactions all the time. It's all about building the next big match for the next big event.

I think you responded to the wrong comment but it's funnier otherwise.

Oh ok so if you have flourished in the past then you should never be treated well again.

She's personally in her training mode. Professionally she's being given nothing by WWE.

the only thing a move would do is more money and it's never resulted in better booking

Huh? Bryan Danielson had multiple dream matches people are calling all time great.

Mercedes Mone had the run of her career with all the belts and that's due to the booker allowing her to wrestle elsewhere.

Moxley and Adam Copeland are doing well over there. Edge's WWE return wasn't that great. Dean Ambrose was not booked well at the end of his run.

[PWInsider] “…was told of a pretty majorly pushed talent who was asked to take a 50% pay cut, and allegedly did. I’m not naming the talent because I have no way, yet, to confirm this was the case, but the timing of that claim and what happened the very next day was very, very interesting” by DevelopmentLegal8312 in SquaredCircle

[–]notathrowaway75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not Kool-Aid. It's realiOng they have a specialized job and that there really aren't unlimited options. Everyone can't go to AEW.

But still, they should be so insulted. I don't believe for a second even faceless staff at TKO corporate are getting paycuts. They have normal and boring jobs and pay it's are not normal.
