"The man who shot Charlie Kirk was a conservative white man from Utah. But the fact that we assumed it was a transgender Mexican demonstrates how out of control Leftist rhetoric has gotten." Tomorrow in the Washington Post

This happening the same night gentrified NXT Mexico is running a show in the US

Got a DM the other week from someone in wrestling about Carlos Silva being a mark who is desperate to be a star. A terminally online man running a second rate company, who so wants to be on WWE Unreal telling Abyss to stop eating Jelly Tots. Probably happy to self sabotage the company for a spot.

WWE bots working hard to get my Twitter taken down. I was blocked for a while. Now they're trying to get me pulled off everyone's news feeds.

In which @rjcity.bsky.social is a menace.

Wait.

Nick LoPiccolo, the agent for CM Punk, Drew McIntyre, Liv Morgan, & other WWE wrestlers, is an admitted anti-AEW Twitter troll?

And he's been arguing in Dave Meltzer's replies for hours about how "nobody in Hollywood believes" that WBD is paying AEW $185 million/year?

What in the world?!?

"Hi, I'd like to represent you. I'm the agent that shit on the second largest company in your industry. Let's talk about my rate."

So Paradigm isn't even negotiating with AEW which is leading to lowered salaries for the talent they represent. If I was a client of this company I would fire them right now and call up Barry Bloom

This is a great thread. Those wilderness years of Sin Cara and Myzteziz were a bit sad (sometimes funny tbh), amazing that he got back to being The Man.

Little bit little, year by year, he worked his way back. Frankly, he WILLED his way back. And he took CMLL along with him; it's no coincidence that the promotion is hotter than it's been in a long time because he's back to being the guy he was in the mid-2000's.

Watching that Mistico entrance again, it really hits me just how it's remarkable that we wound up here. This guy was THE star in lucha libre in the 2000s, arguably bigger in Mexico than any top star was in the US, and he lost everything, and I mean everything, when he left for that WWE run.

So...

The more overtly MAGA-ish WWE gets, does AEW have a chance of siphoning away the company's large Hispanic fanbase?

Last night, between Hangman's promo, Brody King's shirt, and the "Hey WWE! The heritage is not for sale!" flyers being handed out, there was a STRONG message being sent out.

Always remember: WWE made a point not to mention or outwardly associate w/ Trump from 2015-2024ish out of concern that it'd alienate the company's very large Black and Hispanic fanbases to do anything else.

Now they're going full MAGA while a competitor plants a flag as the pro-immigrant company.

YouTube video by All Elite Wrestling Hangman Page introduces himself (in Spanish) to Arena Mexico | AEW Grand Slam Mexico, 6/18/25

look i got no jokes or rhododendrons for you dumbasses today, just wanted to say it was an honor for all of us to perform in arena mexico last night. it felt special. thanks, goodbye

youtu.be/H84MyRfKzK0?...

What Brody King did on Wednesday was incredible. I won’t forget that moment. I won’t forget hangman cutting his promo in Spanish. He knew American fans were watching. But where he was. That was more important than the tv.
Thank you to both and to AEW.
These guys make me proud to be an AEW fan

In that green suit, Tony looks like he's their Dad.

Monday Night Raw Milk

The wrestling isn't any good.

The promos sound like an 8 year old trying to remember lines in a school play.

The storylines aren't even any good.

Why does anyone who hasn't fully jumped in on the cult watch that shit?

WWE: Cements top angle where they concede that the company's a propaganda arm for a brutal dictatorship and that this is a bad thing while consolidating power with other fascists who want to put a massive percentage of their fanbase in concentration camps.

AEW: Books Lee Moriarty vs. Blue Panther.

OH JESUS FUCKING CHRIST

WWE is going MAGA & trying to Americanize lucha while AEWs hottest star is bisexual & they're airing live from Mexico City next Wednesday. Choose your fighter.

Trump’s UFC favourites keep getting KO’d And it's making the sport fun to watch again.

Bryce Mitchell, Michael Chandler, and now Bo Nickal.

Glorious to see Trump's favs getting slept. Actually making the sport tolerable again 🤣

Specific lines aside, what sticks out to me Re: The Roast of WrestleMania is how little it resembled an actual roast. Any "what'd you expect from a roast, you pussy?" arguments are negated by the targets of most of the ugliest cracks being about people who weren't there, much less working for WWE.

WWE fans claiming they do not support sex trafficking when they buy tickets to WWE events:

I thought Phil had no tolerance for domestic abusers, wonder what changed.

Can I say something that might rock the boat a bit?

If you’re confronted with the potential association of the Tates with WWE and your only response is whether or not CM Punk will be mad/embarrassed and not about the women in WWE who will be in danger….you need to sit and have a think about that.

The chief content officer of WWE is behind Linda here and on board with this. Sharing this again for all of you liberals that can't seem to give up watching their programming for whatever god awful reason you have

I wrote about the bizarre experience of watching WWE, and its fans, actively work to create a hollow, meaningless atmosphere in a constant quest to go viral

Oh JFC shut the fuck up Pat McAfee.

One of the reporters at the WWE presser just asked HHH if he had any updates on Cody's health status. There are no words. At this point these pressers are just people auditioning to get to host a PPV preshow.
