The FB account is verified to be him, right? I read through some of his most recent Twitter. Wouldn't describe it as "great." Mostly just biblical affirmations and retweets of WWE/NXT gifs. I'm not a Twitter aficionado or user, but just seems like "great' would describe someone who uses the platform to say something or promote something of value in a succinct or clever way. Also, he ends some of his tweets with #LoveThyNeighbor and then posts that Democrats are pedophiles...as he coaches Velveteen Dream and pals around with Jerry Lawler. So, yeah, fuck this guy and his phony Born Again bullshit. (To be clear, I'm not calling all Born Again Christianity "bullshit," just singling out that the Road Dogg spouting "God is good" while actively being a piece of shit means that he not only doesn't practice what he preaches, but doesn't even fundamentally understand Jesus' teachings.)

Strummer Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 Eight years ago today Raw officially moved to three hours. so eight years ago today Punk turned heel on the Rock.

MoS Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 American conservatism is really its own beast. The overton window is so far to the right, compared to other similar 1st world countries, it's honestly a bit surreal. Kross has a great presence and a grest entrance, but his actual work so far has left me cold. They better not have him beat Lee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted July 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 More of this, please. Â Also, the notion that the USA ever had or will have some "socialist" as their president, for basically anyone in Latin America, is insane.

sek69 Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 That Adam Cole thing is weird. If it's a work, what is it building? No one wants to see Pat McAfee actually have a match. If it's real it makes Cole look like a thinned skinned bitch who was extremely gotten to by Pat fucking McAfee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted July 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 It's all a work to get Cole vs HBK for next year's Mania!! I mean, the idea of trying to work a ~SHOOT! into one of those interviews isn't bad. I like it, even. Of course, if being gotten to by a kicker (who is way bigger than one of your main names) is the best they could do, might wanna rethink things.

I probably should've prefaced my statement by saying I haven't been very active on Twitter for months now. A year or so ago, he was posting some pretty good stuff - or at least "deeper" than you'd expect from a pro wrestler with a stoned redneck character. Cena was also quite good around that time too. 9 hours ago, DMJ said: Also, he ends some of his tweets with #LoveThyNeighbor and then posts that Democrats are pedophiles...as he coaches Velveteen Dream and pals around with Jerry Lawler. So, yeah, fuck this guy and his phony Born Again bullshit. Cognitive dissonance. He probably doesn't believe the Dream rumors are true, or doesn't want to believe them, and the Lawler stuff was so long ago that it's "out of sight, out of mind." (I'm pretty sure he didn't read that Bix expose from a year or two ago - and neither did anyone else from WWE, probably.) I'm not defending that, mind you, just pointing it out as a reason for the man's rationale or lack thereof.

Strummer Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 Newest Observer says Daniel Bryan and Edge have joined the writing teams. Bryan on SD and Edge on Raw. Orton and Edge were supposed to have their third match at Summerslam before Edge got hurt. They hope to have the match at next year's mania Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmare007 Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 Let's see if Bryan is able to convince Bruce and Vince into any of his ideas. Considering he has a baby on the way and that he shouldn't risk getting Covid at the PC, it seems like a good alternative to have him in the writing team.

I'd wager Bryan has been helping out with SD for a while and this just makes it official. He's one of the best I've ever seen at getting people over and that's something WWE sorely needs. Edge has always been a pretty creative guy, so this gives him an outlet for that which doesn't involve him risking his own body. I get the vibe from him that he's the type of guy who doesn't think others can understand his art (see how butthurt he got over the Mania match), so I expect Twitter rants in the future if whatever his pitches doesn't get lavish praise.

When SD is good, it's because it's the stepchild Vince ignores and when it's bad it's because Vince is paying too much attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NintendoLogic Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 I actually remember liking Corbin's match against Bull Dempsey at that one Takeover quite a bit. He's not a total write-off, he just needs to be confined to short-ish brawls in the midcard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
