Speaking of THE BRAND



In case anybody was still clinging to the "they need us more than we need them" argument: they went from people buying their signed talent's merch in Hot Topic last year, to selling out MSG with New Japan half a year ago, to having to struggle to get 400 people in the country interested in Rush defending a world title against PCO

Also seeing Sarah Logan last night was your quarterly reminder that they broke up the Riott Squad for no fucking reason.

Does anyone prefer the name "Paradigm Shift" over "Death Rider"? I never liked it being called the Paradigm Shift.

Death Rider sounds more Natural but Paradigm Shift sticks out more if this makes any sense. Like Death Rider sounds cool but kind of generic wheras Paradigm Shift sounds weird but makes it uniquely Moxley's.

I was expecting Flammable D to betray us, not you!

Now I understand why you like Yuna Manase, you were always a cop!!!

I'm just wishing the best poster in this thread with only the greatest takes well wishes for her future in authority. I betrayed nobody!

If excel gets the opportunity to mod and wants to do it she should go for it.

Women don't make a ton of money in indy wrestling which forces them to find other ways to make money.




That ringworn gear sells for $$$ because the weirdos want to lick the sweat, friend.

Not to harsh anyone's high.

Huh. Well then. Okay. I knew Bea sold bikini pics because those are advertised on her Twitter sometimes, but the ring gear thing is new to me. I watched the Stardom doc that also made me see the owner as an exploitative pimp daddy, so it's disappointing they need to do those things to make ends meet. That said, no judgment on the women doing it, and I guess it's no worse for the guys who'd masturbate to porn otherwise anyways.

No kink shaming as long as the guys are harmless non-Brad Shepherd types.

Vince has carny of the year locked up until he dies.

Wrestlers had to make up stories about how everything was fine when they were held captive in Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile Vince and Brock fucked off in their private jet. To go to Smackdown, the $2.5 billion TV show where the talent has seen exactly ZERO of those new dollars.

We don't even blink at the poor taste creative about using the deaths of family members to get heat anymore. Didn't they do something really fucking shitty with Nattie earlier this year? I don't even remember, that's how normalized it has become.

Is MBS an outsider contender for carny of the year? Also I feel like Court and Gabe at least deserve to be in the conversation.

I mod a Facebook Giant Bomb fan wrestling group and folks are currently submitting their nominees for annual awards there and as I tally votes there I've been trying to use it to forcast what voting will look like here.

If it is any indication Vince, Corny, MBS, Court and Hat Man will all be vote getters this year.
