Finally getting around to listening to Serial, “The Coldest Case in Laramie,” and disappointed they don’t spend any time in episode four talking about the Uncle Elmer wedding on Saturday Night’s Main Event despite having a perfect opportunity.
Dan Snyder bought and owned the Washington NFL franchise and, charitably, made many poor decisions. Vince McMahon created WWE in his image and everyone who works there now owes their careers to his legacy.
10/10 tweet, no notes
Bruno Sammartino, afraid of the grind.
Born on this day: former Red Sox/Phillies/White Sox first baseman Tony Lupien and John Cena, who is Lupien's grandson!
Agree. Feels like we’ve all been poisoned to think it means someone like Iron Sheik in 84 or Backlund in 95. Sometimes it’s as simple as one wrestler has a better chance against a certain opponent. And length of reign is a useless metric if the champ never had compelling defenses

This book was one that needed to be written and Jon Finkel certainly did his research to produce a classic for all wrestling fans. Jon's addition to the literature of wrestling is a must-have. Buy the book and join the Books & Biceps community! Great work, Jon. @Jon_Finkel
I love these threads because the logic comes from a pragmatic, real-world view instead of trying to force feed pro wrestling into the same context as the NFL or Hollywood. Take two steps back and a lot of things become more clear.

Sixth-grade me would fantasy book Reigns to win MITB and turn the tables on Rollins at WMXLI for poetic symmetry.
Craig’s post made me think about CTE in pro football players vs. CTE in pro wrestlers and while both are tragic, and as much disdain as I have for the NFL w/r/t wrestlers I feel we need a lot more discussion about corporate/promoter liability.

When @pwoloss said “There's a difference between everyone knowing what wrestling is and wrestling going out of its way to tell you not to invest in the things it's doing,” the reference was to recent events but also it describes most of WWE’s 2010s.

Refs this game: "TECHNICAL FOUL ON MILWAUKEE FOR NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THE HELL IS REAL SIGN NEAR INDIANAPOLIS."
@StarOfSavage Exactly. They're both going for a springboard move and they both missed/timed it wrong. Literally why it's called high risk! Cody is just such a dork that it's also funny.
Going to start a band named “Pearl Jam Band” that plays 45 minute versions of Pearl Jam songs
Vince McMahon is a bully. It's an integral part of his mythos and it infected every level of his company. Should come as no surprise that when they get punched in the nose it's suddenly "we're just Smol Bean Entertainment. Lil Wrasslin Gang That Could! Pwease be nice to us."
This is literally just politics now. One side is completely detached from reality and only exists to troll the other. Expected to show deference and decorum towards the company whose owner was shitting on his sex slave. Jesus fucking christ.
I’m in Chicago. Everyone here REALLY likes Chick Magnet Punk. The little stars from his tights are EVERYWHERE.
Don't let your favorite Newt Gingrich-era podcaster confuse you: They absolutely adore AEW and Tony Khan. Would jump speeding trains for him. He is feeding their families.
Tony is shamelessly doing this for publicity AND it's tacky to use it as a wrestling war football AND his point is correct AND the AEW house isn't spotless either AND pretending simply moving on from Vince is enough to reform the cultural rot in WWE is naive.
You are all right to say this. You are all wrong to say one of these things to the exclusion of the other points.
*technically the final disposition of my body will be at a crematorium, not a grave, but that doesn’t roll off the tongue as well
@StarOfSavage I'm talking about present day White Sox, I don't have anything against them in general
All wrestling is better on CRT televisions
The New Elite attacking Tony Khan on retro VHS is another level! IG: CRT Wrestling
Culture critics saying something previously cool is "out" is nothing new, but you're kidding yourself if you don't think these things are paid for now. The entire "influencer" sphere is a massive payola/plugola scam. There is no political capital to do anything about it either.
