Yeah Ive seen people age my friend. Looks more like an alergic reaction.
This is one of the very reasons why I stopped watching wrestling altogether.
It's full of Trump cultists/Conservatives. And it's all fake anyway.

While I gave up even remotely caring about the WWE years ago, it's still a pretty impressive week in American rasslin' that one company almost caused an international incident with Saudi F'n Arabia and the other company has their Champion palling around with Donald F'n Trump Jr doing podcasts just days before their first PPV after premiering on network TV.
I don't expect people in that industry to be beacons of progressive views, but holy shit do they continually amaze and surprise in ghastly ways.

I think people have this mindset because of the rep of the guys from the 80's and 90's.
Because of my job I've had interactions with a wide spectrum of wrestlers. 99% of people were delightful to work with and I believe were genuinely good people. I'm just a producer, so these people didn't have to be nice to me, they could have just gotten the info and then gone on with their lives. But instead they engage and are quite delightful.
I even made a good friend who is a Wolf. She's awesome.
Nah. You can't give people like this time of day and space in the world. Same reason I loathe Joe Rogan. Giving them a mic is the worst thing you can do if you have a platform like this.
Gotta stick up for what you love. Everything is going to have it's share of bad people. But the current crop has the rep for being the friendly millennial generation.
If you ever work in the Pacific North West, please let me kn ow. :D
Cody isn't exactly the anti-thesis to Jericho either. He might be AEW's top baby face, but he's far from his father's "Hard Times" everyman/working man alter ego. He looks more like heel Ric Flair with all the limo and private jet video packages he's featured in. Plus his character is best friends with MJF? His wife is a heel too? Why is he the defacto baby face? Then you have Moxley doing his best Stone Cold impression, which I'm sure will win over all the lapsed redneck wrestling fans. Not to mention Adam Page's nickname is Hangman, which is a great image to conjure up in 2019 given the current state of race relations in the U.S. AEW committing a lot of unforced errors.
Unlikely to happen soon but who knows. It's a fickle business. Will do
I believe Hangman was given to him by Gedo who is Japanese. Sort of a different context there. He got over with that name in Japan, so it kind of stuck.
I think the Cody character stemmed from his American Nightmare character which was initially heel. But Dusty did his fair share of limo rides and such as well.
I think there was an interview with Hangman where he acknowledges the issues of the noose:
Lol no he's not. Where'd you get that shit from? I've spoken to him about stuff like this. He hates trump and for gods sake hes married to a very progressive black woman
Why do you keep repeating the same shit that the Khan's are big trump supporters? They donate to all political parties as billionaires do. And Tony Khan's father was one of the only people in the NFL that supported the players kneeling.
I try not to let this upset me , chances are every huge cooperation is a Trump supporter. Silicon Valley that tries to fool people into thinking they're progressive mingle with the likes of Trump. Realistically I would have to hide in a cave to avoid all of this.

He gave quite a bit to Trump. That's still supporting him whether he supports others not. I also saw him on CNBC the other day being very complimentary of Trump, talking about how hes ushered in a golden age of manufacturing. So yeah it's not just support with money either.
Edit: Talking about Shahid if that wasnt clear.
This thread title hurt me. This right here is why I actively try to not to have heroes.
How do you guys think Roddy Piper would have leaned when it comes to Trump? Guy was one of my favorite entertainers growing up, and I really respected him even now.

Not generally, no, but that's also not an excuse to just give up and accept it.
I may know who you're talking about, and if it's Kris Wolf I've heard she's wonderful.
She's a delight. I'm sad she had to retire, but she gets to be a viking with her wife in Norway now. Not a bad retirement.
Good thing Jericho isn't the totality of the roster, right?
EC3 was a HUGE Milo fan when he still existed. And also loved altright pages and breitbart on instagram.
He gave money to the inauguration. Like every other billionaire. He has bit given any money to trumps campaign and he has called Trump a "great divider". Stop trying to create a narrative.
You're spinning this to make it something it's not.
