June Wrasslin’ |OT| IT’S SUCH GOOD SHIT

Like if you're gonna just freely throw those kinda accusations around, highlight the post.
I'll freely own up to nay posts where i defend the WWE and their Saudi shit, or their independant contractor bullshit.
If you got a screencap of me saying Sasha deserves the run she's gotten and should quit being a baby, go right the fuck ahead and post em.
Or maybe highlight where I said Vince was a hilarious motherfucker for having the Usos be homophobic as shit to the Revival. Clearly I do that all the god damn time like you're suggesting.
I specifically said HHH and you noted when you do it, that's all
I just have a much higher bar for referring to someone as being spoken to as "highly", especially in the context of how that summary was written up.
you literally said I defend Anything HHH and WWE do.
There's a lot of connotation to that.
Now back to the shit i was talking about before this.
Why is wrestling always such a god damn travesty? I can't even fully back Joey Ryan in his dunking of Cornette cause Cornette fans easily pull up him tweeting the N word and joking about raping pregnant women.
Why is Wrestle Twitter always like this?

Moxley talking about how there should be no scripts in wrestling is a bit of a hot take. I think when you get to the level of WWE you need some kind of script, or storyboard, or something along those lines. Pairing up people with promo coaches or producers is likely needed for a lot of people because I'm sure not everyone is as creative as Moxley or Janella or Jericho.
I didn't listen but maybe he meant no word for word scripts and instead just bullet points for everything
He specifically said 'writers' so he probably means the literal script writing. I still think you need them though because again, cutting promos is hard and coming up with stuff aint easy. Maybe they don't write the literal script but could at least offer an improv type approach of "this week continue talking about X and get in at least one comment on Y"
Are there actual links? Because that stuff is very easily faked.
nah, just screen grabs. which is why I'm back and forth on whether it's real or somebody faking it.
What Dean might be referring to is to have bookers, not writers. JR, Sullivan, and Cornette have said the same thing.
I know Cornette is (rightfully) not seen in any good light right now but this is how he describes the difference
"Writers" in the way the WWE uses them script out every little detail
My prediction going in was semi-finals: Yuna Manase vs Natsumi Maki and Yuka Sakazaki vs Mizuki with the final being Natsumi Maki defeating Mizuki.
I don't see why they wouldn't have Shoko lose clean in quarter-finals but who knows.
If you have Mizuki get a win over Shoko but not actually win the tournament you always have an easy title match before the Osaka show where Shoko can get her win back.
Yeah I know the difference, and bookers/produces are needed but I still think at the szie of a WWE you need some kind of writing crew. A lot of people just can't cut promos well and need any help they can get.
Yeah I'd be inclined to give it more weight if there was context to it. Old tweets don't just magically appear unless there's a link to them or if they were screengrabbed from years back and people were talking about it when it supposedly happened. If it's a "oh hey look what I found!" thing, then I wouldn't give it any sort of weight.
Bullet points are fine. At some point I think you have to try trusting people enough with their own characters that they can make it work if they have to ad-lib some stuff. Not everyone's going to pull a Cesaro, and even Cesaro should have gotten more chances than one
One thing I'm not a super fan of is Mox being all gungho as a soldier for AEW. Doesn't seem to fit his character to me. I get promoting the product is good so I hope it was just for DON.
Anybody who knows the old booker strategy of "playing to their strengths" would know not to give a weak talker a lot to say, or usually give them a mouthpiece to do it for them. It's really only a problem if it's made into a problem.
I just want Brian to know that Miyu 100% lost due to a close personal friend choosing not to watch leading to her demotivate.
Just look at Miyu last year. She was a much stronger champ than Shoko is at this point and they had her lose to Nodoka. A part of my thinks that Miu could be pulling another big upset simply because of the work she's been putting in this year.
Anyway Matt, you're cancelled for suggesting we won't get to see Rika vs Mizuki in the semis or finals.

Yuna's motivated going into the tournament because of all the attention her Ganbare match got, sorry, she's going to beat Rika next week.
He also got what he wanted, what he really really wanted.
I think he is just energized and excited again. In the Jericho interview he said how he was indifferent about signing with another coproation. I wouldn't be surprised if the stability of WWE is something he came to enjoy from all of it, versus needing to manage so many bookings.
Death Yama-San's stupid taunt is one of the best in wrestling.
You can't by more motivated than the white dragon that will never give up.

Actually if I recall, he's not.
But apparently that's more to do with his EVIL, DEMONIC, TATTOOS than anything else
So like I thought they'd do some title change shenanigans in the lead up to GCW Japan but I keep forgetting that they're partnered with FREEDOMS out there, not with BJW
Granted it's not like they don't already have Takeda working both, but I think any real interpromotional crossover would be them
Though you then get into Gage showing up in Big Japan and oh baby
Balor Club is for everyone, even murderous religious dictators. That's Galaxy brained inclusiveness, friend.
Yeah, my thinking is Freedoms is basically running logistics for them and offering their limited roster, but BJW has been pretty generous with its talent for some time so I'm at least open to the possibility of some shenanigans tonight.
In any case, it's gonna be fucking wild. Colon/Sakuda is going to be some violent gremlin shit, Veidt is going to get eviscerated by Kodaka, Lloyd and Sasuke are going to get up to some outrageous fuckery, and the king will do some gross stuff with G Raver.
I hope Kodaka comes to play with Orin
I kinda worry that match will disappoint because Orin's matches in Chicago have been long, super bloody, tons of crazy spots, etc. That Raver/Kodaka match in Chicago was fun but really didn't have many tubes or anything. Couple of panes in the corner but that was it
Of course, there's always the very likely possibility that Orin just says "look man you don't have to do shit i'll just dive into a mess of glass and you don't have to catch me
Why is this hard for you to understand?
"Moxley speaks pretty highly of Triple H. He really hammers home that Vince is the sole problem. He says he'd like to see Hunter run things for a month and see what happens. "
if we're making OTs about old stuff no-one gives a shit about anymore i should get like 3 more britwres OTs
