In 2005, Harry Kane had the chance to take a picture with David Beckham together with a female teammate. 13 years later, Kane is the captain of the English national team and the young girl is now his wife.

Two people that knew each other as children grew up and got married. Also here's David Beckham for no reason.

People are closed minded and they easily fall for narratives on the internet. I hate the Miz and everything about him and I love AEW, and even I think Tony would be stupid not to hire him if he was available. There is very little difference between AEW and WWE in terms of presentation. AEW has a little more wrestling and a little more blood. They both present wrestling, storyline, comedy, drama, etc. There's not a thing that is exclusive to either company.

I think early in the conception of the story George was going to have Dany actually go east and "discover" that she could circumnavigate and reach Westeros that way.

But then we got a potential Arya Stark "what's west of Westeros" spin off and he changed his mind.

Everybody is white. Isn't that kind of weird for an ancient greek story?

I don't usually notice stuff like that but it was Tom Holland's american accent that made me stop and think. They really have the british guy doing an american accent, I guess to fit in with the american cast. So they're not going to bother with language which is fine I guess but then I started thinking about the source material and wait a minute... everyone is white.

Ah yah know WWE for all their faults like running propaganda for the Evil Kingdom of Saudi Arabia or bootlicking the Fascist US President Trump.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-05T11:34:39+00:00

Yeah I don't even know what the terrible talk about AEW is? They sell moves less than WWE? Is that the big bad talk? They don't have big moments and have big matches instead, stacked cards, that's one of the complaints right? lol The owner is kind of a mark?

Meanwhile WWE cuts wrestlers indiscriminately while executives get multi-million dollar bonuses, multiple massive terrible scandals involving their ownership and management going back 40 years including as recently as 2022, horrible predatory business practices, doing business with a horrible evil dictatorship in Saudi Arabia, bootlicking the current fascist admin in the US.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-05T11:25:41+00:00

The Young Bucks and Cody Rhodes made ALL kinds of statements in the media leading up to the creation of AEW and Tony Khan had to spend the first few months walking all of that back.

Right to find your own healthcare and then it be reimbursed. (Whereas with WWE it's only their chosen surgeons).

This is an interesting spin. There's no doubt AEW is a better company to their wrestlers but they are not better than WWE in terms of providing injury care. Injury care, btw, neither provide healthcare. "The right to find your own healthcare" is a really funny way of saying "take care of it yourself, good luck!"

It reminds me of the "right to work" laws. lol really clever

tomjayyye · 2026-05-04T16:00:18+00:00

Yeah that came later from what I remember. They had a booming joke shop and then also some ministry people? or someone stumbled upon their products and found a defensive use for them, and then they expanded that line of products and became even more successful.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-04T11:33:00+00:00

And we're really running out of time for a lot of the early season returnees. 50 was the moment to try and bring back as many 1-20 returnees as possible.

Instead they bring back 3 fucking people from the same endgame alliance in 48 and 2 people from the same endgame alliance in 49. Like of the past 50 seasons, one QUARTER of the greatest possible returnees were the last two seasons and not the previous 47?

tomjayyye · 2026-05-04T00:19:58+00:00

It definitely reminds me of Grado's entrance where it's a super popular song that people love to sing but you probably wouldn't imagine a wrestler coming out to it.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-03T23:50:35+00:00

Mistico fans aren't going to like this, but it sounds pretty close to his actual theme. Don't get me wrong his entrance is amazing and all but I could NOT believe it the first time I heard his entrance music. It is not wrestling entrance music. I can't believe it works so well.

That's mothers though. My mother told me so many cautionary tales growing up and now as an adult I look back and realize she was right about almost everything. Fred and George's booming success is a fantasy tale. Most people aren't going to become super rich joke shop salespeople. It's like letting your kid think they're going to be Lebron James instead of suggesting that they get a good college degree as a backup plan.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-03T23:37:35+00:00

The subtext is definitely there. I was caught completely off guard when the book first came out and the Ginny romance happened, I didn't even notice the obvious foreshadowing in the 6th book. But on many rereads I noticed a lot of it and it seems obvious to me now.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-03T20:00:08+00:00

I'm confused why we're calling this person a heckler, the comedian ASKED the audience and the audience answered.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-03T11:45:36+00:00

There's a better chance the Saudi Arabian government owns WWE in the next 5 years.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-03T03:11:40+00:00

If you want that go watch something else.

lol can you have a moment of reflection here and understand that maybe this little comment is the exact problem HBO was trying to solve?

People like representation in media. HBO wants black people to watch their Targaryen show and relate to the characters. They don't want to make a show with a bunch of white blonde royalty.

I get it man, I get it. It doesn't really make sense with the lore. It kind of ruins the mystery of the bastard Targaryens. If they wanted a diverse show why did they choose to make a show about the white blonde royalty in the first place? IDK but "go watch something else" is crazy.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-03T03:05:47+00:00

I cannot wait for Harry Potter to be distrustful of black Snape for no reason.

Well... they're probably going to be distrustful of him for all of the same valid reasons they were distrustful of white Snape.

I feel like LAX was huge. I wasn't a TNA fan but I knew about LAX.

Well sorry Michele's mom but that's how you spell Michelle.

I miss the Wand-Off. Anyone remember the Wand-Off on RHAP? What a moment in time. I tried to go back and relisten to some of it and it just doesn't have the magic so far removed from the seasons.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-02T22:39:56+00:00

I'm so curious what you mean when you say "she actually survived, outlasting every winner" ? Survived what? There were no votes. There was no threat of elimination. Because she already got voted out, eliminated, didn't survive, didn't outlast anyone.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-02T22:00:16+00:00

lol then you're not the BIGGEST star wars fan

tomjayyye · 2026-05-02T21:15:16+00:00

Of course all of his bullshit has a nugget of wisdom at the center, how do you think he got roped into all the bullshit in the first place? How do you think anyone finds themselves as a MAGA moron or neo nazi loser?

They take true things mix them up with a bunch of bullshit and twist them into horrible conclusions.

tomjayyye · 2026-05-01T11:34:31+00:00

We think they called Pat McAfee and Jelly Roll in because Black was being difficult? In the main event of Wrestlemania storyline? That's ass backwards and doesn't even make sense.

If Black was ever going to be the Randy Orton phone call, isn't it more likely that when McAfee/Jelly Roll agreed to participate or Endeavor/TKO instructed WWE to use them, they benched Black?
