Y'all can use https://tpww.freeforums.net/ when this site is down

Mr. Nerfect 12-02-2023 08:48 AM

Thanks for the tip. :y:

Mr. Nerfect 12-03-2023 03:38 PM

So Dave just keeps getting more insane. Besides the hilarious argument he had with Bryan Alvarez about the overruns (check it out on Cornette’s YouTube — it’s great), he’s also taking up for The Bucks by trying to push this idea that Punk is pampered.

He also just CANNOT for the life of him understand how anyone can see CM Punk having issues with a Ryan Nemeth or a Jack Perry and get how there could be any connection to The Bucks.

Splaya 12-04-2023 08:54 AM

It's because Dave gets paid by the Bucks to defend them at all costs. Because any SANE person would have stopped years ago, especially after the incident overseas.

Incident? Do elaborate!

Mr. Nerfect 12-04-2023 05:19 PM

Yeah, I’m struggling to recall that too. Is it because all the incidents blur together?

Mr. Nerfect 12-04-2023 05:20 PM

When they didn’t get into his HOF, Meltzer said the reason they have critics is because they’ve never worked in WWE lol.

Mr. Nerfect 12-04-2023 05:25 PM

Ooh, can’t let this slip through the cracks. Ric Flair went on Rampage and went into business for himself. Just doing the horny old man shtick. But apparently he wasn’t supposed to/had the get the hook.

I’m telling you, this guy is going to work Tony into letting him work Wembley.

Mr. Nerfect 12-04-2023 05:28 PM

Oh, and now Matt Hardy is whinging about AEW. MATT HARDY!

Ben Rodrigues 12-04-2023 05:49 PM

What a time to be alive!

Mr. Nerfect 12-05-2023 04:50 AM

Britt Baker too.

They’ve also fired Kevin Sullivan, their VP of Post Production (not the Taskmaster Kevin Sullivan).

Ben Rodrigues 12-05-2023 05:12 AM

Why don't these wrestlers go to Tony directly? I don't understand the complaining online. Unless it is to rally Twitter support so Tony features them more?

Ol Dirty Dastard 12-05-2023 08:35 AM

I'll guess Tony's becoming less available these days.

Kevin would be a better booker.

Too right!

The Booker of the Year doesn’t have time to be dealing with no-mark talent on the roster. Go speak to the Head of Talent Relations.

Oh.

Not directly AEW related, but a survey of 1300 NFL players has the Jaguars rated as one of the worst organizations to work for.

Under the "other" category, the most aggravating aspects of being on the Jaguars is having to profess friendship to placate the owner's middle aged son. Players described it as disconcerting and unpleasant.

Look at his weird facial expression in that video, that is not normal lol. Also never forget how scorned Tiny was when a pro bowler didn't want to put up with his shit.

Talent going online to complain is one of the biggest red flags a company can have. It’s like they’re begging to be fired. Mid-card guys in WCW vibes.

Mr. Nerfect 12-05-2023 06:01 PM

Lol, people tried defending Tony Khan for that.

Mr. Nerfect 12-05-2023 06:02 PM

Now Jericho is saying that everyone in AEW could use 6 months working for Vince McMahon. He doesn’t say it verbatim, but it’s basically so everyone knows what it’s like to have a real boss. :lol:

They got a low rating because there was a big rat infestation in their workout facility apparently, I don’t know if Tony Khan has anything to do with it.

Sepholio 12-06-2023 04:24 AM

also because they don't do anything for their players families like the other teams do.

Jordan 12-06-2023 08:17 AM

I barely keep up with AEW anymore, too bad to watch for sure. Seems so terrible! Am I right, does AEW sucks?

Evil Vito 12-06-2023 01:50 PM

I'm still enjoying a lot of it but as always it's not without flaws. Continental Classic (basically a mini G1) has been a lot of fun IMO.

weather vane 12-06-2023 02:00 PM

AEW is awesome. Love it.

Sepholio 12-06-2023 02:14 PM

I still put it on my TV because I support rasslin but I hardly ever pay attention to it for more than a few minutes at a time.

I loved working for him, and I loved going head-to-head with him and creating ideas and debating ideas and arguing ideas,” Chris Jericho said. “He always used to say, ‘I’m not here just to teach you wrestling lessons, I’m here to teach you life lessons.’ He did. He taught me a lot of life lessons.

“The guy’s a really fucking cool guy, from my experiences with him. Not easy to deal with and an asshole sometimes, but he’s your boss. You’re not supposed to be friends with your boss all the time. But then you can still get on the private jet and drink for four hours and listen to the stones.”

Yes AEW does suck. All the metrics back it up too. All the icebergs people pointed out were real.

Ben Rodrigues 12-07-2023 06:24 AM

AEW talents getting fined for speaking out on social media. Daniel Bryan a stooge now. It's all happening in AEW land!

Mr. Nerfect 12-07-2023 12:02 PM

What a time.

xrodmuc316 12-07-2023 12:14 PM

AEW is doing Vince Russo level swerves now, where they think it is amazing but everybody sees it coming because it is not really a swerve, it is obvious.

Mr. Nerfect 12-07-2023 01:43 PM

Why is Bryan handing out these fines?

drave 12-07-2023 01:45 PM

Because he's a stooge now.

drave 12-07-2023 01:49 PM

but no really, it's all "claims" and "rumors".


If you actually stop to think about it, the truth is most likely closer to:

He's on some sorta committee that meets about shit like this, and has a voice in what disciplinary mesaures are taken. I highly doubt he is unilaterally making those decisions.


But.... rumors n stuff

Mr. Nerfect 12-07-2023 01:55 PM

You don’t need a committee for this stuff. It’s just a way for Tony to buck responsibility.

Pretty easy to predict every single result on Dynamite this week. This Devil storyline has to be up there as an all-time bad one.
