It sounds harsh, but justice is a hard thing to find even with all the right avenues taken so bypassing the system and taking it to social media first seems to be an easier way for people to have their accusation taken seriously.
It's not a good idea though. This is precisely why the press and jurors are kept apart legally. |

Did I ever say "#BelieveAllVictims," or is that just how you represent me because it's easier to be a cunt? Do I need to do a throat clearing of "straw-men aside?" I don't think I ever attributed the quote "You know, she's probably lying" to anyone in that conversation, so how about you back off with misrepresenting me, just because it's all your dumb ass has? What I've said, and completely stand by, is that victims should be taken seriously. And I've never said that any of these accusations should not be. All of them should be investigated for validity. And it's true that false allegations are statistically very rare. What is your fucking problem with that? In the Enzo case it was a woman. Is that your issue? Or is it with me? Or do you honestly equate people pointing out that something like 90% of allegations had something to them with that being 100%? Are you sexist, obsessed with me or just fucking stupid? Either way you're trash. Quote:

Jack Gallagher being released is a bit of a jar. Just because they seemed to act on that really fast.

People form allegiances too. Some NXT groupie is not necessarily going to be impartial, especially if he's got relationships with the people who talk to him versus the people who won't.
I'm NOT saying don't that that woman seriously, but if Riddle's side were true, then it's not like everybody is necessarily going to know. Especially if it is just coming out now. If he didn't do it, or things were more cordial than implied now, he's probably handling it the best way by getting a lawyer and doing things professionally. It's just a shame that the system can fuck over the party with the truth on their side in some cases. If Riddle and Cornette (the two guys who seem to be taking legal action) did the things they've been accused of, then it doesn't necessarily mean they are going to lose (obviously). And it doesn't mean they are going to come out smelling of roses even if they didn't, either. |

The woman made her Twitter private, but she posted screenshots of Gallagher messaging with the person whose house the party was at and Gallagher was talking about wanting to apologize to her and stuff and asked the guy to ask her if she feels OK with Gallagher messaging her (she said no), though Gallagher also said that that he didn't remember it happening https://twitter.com/JayneBkyboo/stat...94427975716865 (can't view the tweet now cause it's private) |

Velveteen Dream's name popped up and its similar to other allegations involving him in the past.

I just find the contrast between your posts in the Enzo thread and this one. 4 people come out against Cornette but sure lets attack Braddock's credibility since he's angry about Cornette trashing legless wrestlers.
Noid, when recruiting someone for a job normal people don't put sex on the table. |

Dream's probably the most troubled talent NXT has considering just the drug rumors about him have been going on for years.
Most serious one was him allegedly being a drug supplier to the NXT and PC locker room around the same time WWE was having some serious drug issues in developmental. |

Yeah, recruiting people and forcing them to have sex with you is horrible. Not being the one to recruit them, not having sex with them and them still getting a big push in the company you partly own? Not as indicting. I mean, that's not spin, that's what he actually said. As I said, it'll be awful but just if more OVW stories come out that corroborate these allegations. You'd think it'd be bound to happen now that the floodgates have opened. |

Which 4 people? Are you talking about the allusions by Janela and Marella? Because neither accused him themselves. And what did I say about Braddock's tweet that wasn't anything he didn't say? He didn't accuse Cornette of making him have sex with his wife or anything. Really, this Phil Earley guy didn't even do that. It's like the OVW rumors have gotten swirled up with what these people apparently trying to take him down are actually saying. That's why I'm saying I'm dreading any future stories -- because they might actually be like "Cornette made me have sex with Synn for a job." Which would be fucking awful. But none of these dudes is either saying that or was really ever in the position for that to be a realistic scenario. I'm more upset because of the smoke to the potential fire right now. I'm not undermining anyone's credibility and haven't even once alluded that Braddock's story isn't true, outside the point about Cornette trashing him as a professional because I heard what Cornette said about him. Not that I'm not starting to doubt that wrestling fans and wrestlers can be completely fucked, and if they can do these things in many circumstances, they can probably lie about them too. The whole thing has me honestly really bummed out. |

Facebook has always messaging. That's nothing new. It just had a separate app launched in 08 but you could message people before that. I have messages in my messenger app from when I first started Facebook before the app existed.

It's still possible he used his influence in the business and Stacey said he knows people in OVW and all that. None of that seemed to be included in the messages (so far). You'd think if Cornette is suing, they'd come up in some sort of discovery process at some point. |

All of the accused come out sounding worse in their apologies. It’s like they’re all worried about coming away with whatever “points” they can by making a public apology to the people they’ve hurt instead of making a sincere apology to them directly and in private.

Think they’re fucked every which way if you go by Jack Gallagher’s experience. Seems he tried to apologise privately and that landed him in it more.
I guess they need to make a public apology as the accusation is also in the public domain. And 100% trying to minimise the “brand damage”. |

I heard HHH forcibly had sex with a co-workers ex girlfriend. She also happened to be dead.
