Hmmm?

I trust both PWInsider and the Observer.

Edit: Loose Cannon doubles as "Other".

Out of pure laziness, the only places I go for wrestling news are TPWW and WWE.com. I trust TPWW more than WWE.com. So...

Does WWE still have news feeds from the net?

I trust WWE.com on non-kayfabe issues (firings for example.)

Dave Meltzer can say the world is square and gay sex is awesome, and every wrestling fan will start having gay sex as they reshape their globes into a cube.

Same here. Most of the news on Rajah comes from PWI and WO anyway.

Wrestling fans are far from an intelligent lot, by and large, and tend to believe a lot of shit, even if it's not said by Meltzer.



Benoit didn't have steroids in his system, and the news media made it up because of some grudge. It couldn't be that a person who played essentially himself on one of the biggest cable shows nationwide, which panders to kids, killed his family then himself. Nah. Grudge.
WWE PR. On top of the above belief coming out of a WWE press release (which lied, and then later did mention steroids in his system....), people tend to believe the ratings which are handed out by the company itself over the Nielsen ratings. I mean, these are the guys who said they were drawing more kids than Nickelodeon, Disney, and whatever that third big kid's channel is.
Do I even need to bring up the whole SAVE US thing? Tons of fans were pissed every week when a guy who wasn't advertised or promised for a specific date didn't show up, because it had to be Jericho, and he had to be coming TONIGHT.
Dogma. Triple H is the most over heel ever, Chyna's a man, Ric Flair's still a draw. Okay, the Chyna one is probably true.
shit like JBL's firing from his TV spot violating his free speech, Vince being investigated by Congress for bogus reasons (It wasn't about steroids, but lying to shareholders, and similar bandwagon material.


Wrestling fans don't need DM to act stupid and blindly believe things, 450. The typical wrestling fan seems content to "BYOBS."

WWE.com.

Simple, if u want the truth go straight to the source!

now some sites often do get things right but I never believe anything they say 100% until I see it on the WWE.com because they are not the source.

Yep, seeing something about TNA on WWE.com is rather strange considering "THERE IS NO OTHER PROMOTION IN THE WORLD BUT FCW AND EVEN THAT DOES NOT EXIST"

On top of that it's promoting TNA's "success"....

Well, I'm a part of the Colbert Nation, so I don't turn to fact givers for the news. I trust my gut. If I FEEL like someone is fired or injured or in the dog house or what have you, than that's the way it is.

I trust this message board, but not TPWW's main page. I can't stand the fake tabloid shit they try to report as true.

More or less, this is basically what I read in the news section:

Michelle McCool is the first ever Diva's champion and has HUGE ATTITUDE PROBLEMS. "Everyone doubted me, and I'm out here to prove it to them that I belong in this business" McCool said. WOW. TALK ABOUT ATTITUDE PROBLEMS".

I'm not fucking joking. That is pretty much what Ryan Clark posted a couple of weeks ago.
