AEW signs perhaps the best worker in professional wrestling history with a body of work that spans over 20 years and twitter is like "they should focus on their homegrown talent...they're just copying wwe.."
How do you watch so much wrestling and understand so little about it?
Joey Janela on Orange Cassidy & his detractors:
"TNT executives love Orange Cassidy. He has his own AEW commercial. He's the only person on the whole roster that has their own commercial on TNT. So what does that tell you? He's doing something that's working."
#AEWRevolution
"It took him decades to become the next overnight sensation, and while his tenure in AEW is still in its infancy, he knows deep down his time in the ring—and maybe in life—is limited, because he’s been fighting forever." -
@MikePWInsider
on Eddie Kingston
"I just want people to remember that I kept fighting. It wasn’t for money. If I was doing this for money, I would have quit years ago. Mentally, physically, emotionally, it was a never ending struggle, but I never stopped.”

Years ago, I got really drunk and asked Teddy Hart if he wanted to smoke a joint. He said he only smoked blunts and then took two of my joints and broke them into a massive blunt covered in his dripping saliva. We smoked it - and two days later - I had a 104 degree fever.
To the bootlickers who think the internet or social media didn't exist until 2005 or whatever:
There's a reason Dean Malenko was

"Undoubtedly, Moxley carries himself with an outlaw spirit that breeds believability and contempt all at once."

why do we still glibly talk about Chris Benoit?
for people over 30, he was the best wrestler in the world until he did the unthinkable and crushed our fucking souls
if you irrationally care about this business, it was deeply traumatizing
an all time existential embarrassment

"...Mox never changed and that means the world to me. He is still the same dude with the dry sense of humor and also the same guy to say ‘no’ if something doesn’t make sense. It’s his outlaw spirit that I respect.”

“I don’t care if Triple H tells me I’m not a good wrestler. But when a guy wearing a suit comes and tells me that I don’t have what it takes to be in the wrestling business? That sent me over the edge. Fuck this guy.”

RIP Hana Kimura
An amazing talent in the prime of her life.
So horrible. Only months ago we saw her at the Tokyo Dome making history.
They say hold your loved ones tight when things like this happen but at a time like this, maybe lets think about being decent to strangers.
i don't agree with this.
how do so many people tweet about wrestling 24/7 but have no interest in looking up the most important matches in their favorite wrestler's body of work / history?
CM Punk's FIRST promo in AEW, which was watched by a fuck ton of people, talked about ROH

In a 2001 interview, Eddie Guerrero revealed that he considered “Eddy” the proper spelling of his nickname.
His real name was Eduardo Gory Guerrero Llanes.
Here's what Eddie had to say about this:
“I spell it Eddy, but everybody else spells it Eddie."
Say what you will, but
1) Gresham has been one of most unique and interesting performers to watch over the last few years
2) He singularly kept the ROH brand alive and relevant on the indies long past its expiration date
He deserves special treatment.
"Another huge factor in this gender revolution has been the sudden wave of young, incredibly talented, openly LGBTQ+ performers on the independent scene—and more recently on television."

Life is complicated
Having empathy is easy
If you're such a fucking simpleton that you can't appreciate the notion of paying a heavy debt to society then redeeming one's self on a national stage...
You are too dense to absorb any great story properly, let alone wrestling
I think some of the fan discourse about Nicky being in AEW, and how he once robbed a bank, is objectively funny.
I’ve never seen a group of softer people in my life. 😂
Bruh, if you ain’t Gang affiliated…🖕🏻

Talk your shit, but

People talked about Ric Flair being able to have a good match with a broomstick - Joey has done that but also has a different match every time

I'm sure people will make their lame excuses for it, or say how great the heat was, but this crowd reaction was such bullshit and such an embarrassment to the industry.
