Streams either got aids, lag like shyt, or have boys clubs. By the time I even try, I just move onto greener pastures and just read the thread :ehh:
i use watchwrestlingup.org

of course most of the time i just watch the replays like for Raw since I'm watching MNF. may go to live when Netflix starts tho the streams do cut the commercials so they have that benefit. only downfall is not being able to be in the live threads.

thats a big one cuz it gives shelton 9 and possibly eliminates DG. but then DG goes against Fletcher I think at the end so DG beating Fletcher could knock him out. Briscoe beats Mortos and he has 9 but he beat Kyle and DG so he got the tiebreaker over Kyle. Shelton beats DG and that gives him 9, tho he lost to Fletcher. So then that leaves Okada with 7 needing a win to reach 10 and win the block. Okada and DG the only ones that could end up with 10. If Shelton beats DG, that leaves DG to try and ruin Kyle chances. Also leaves Shelton in a win or go home scenario with Okada since he lost to Kyle already.

Damn looking at the math and this is crazy. Say that DG beats Shelton. So Okada at 7, Kyle at 9, DG at 7, Mark at 6, and Shelton at 6. Then Mark beats Mortos, Shelton beats Okada and DG beats Kyle. Leaving it as Okada 7, Kyle 9, DG 10, Mark 9, Shelton 9, Mortos of course with 0.

So Kyle, Mark, and Shelton all with 9. But here's the crazy part. Kyle beat Shelton but lost to Mark, Mark beat Kyle but lost to Shelton, and Shelton beat Mark but lost to Kyle. DG would win the block and Okada gets eliminated giving Shelton a chance. But that be a crazy 3 way tie to determine the runner up.

Like just the possibility of that happening has me thinking that DG beating Shelton makes things more interesting for the overall standings. Whatever way it goes, its gonna be insane that match and the rest.

bro you scott steiner mathing in this post :pachaha: :mjlol:

The amount of money Tony khan paid for some of this talent only to ruin them is absolutely hilarious to me

Let’s start a list

MJF
Okada
Osprey
Mercedes
Jay White

look how hot Britt baker started off and she’s useless

Toni storm
Ricky starks
Hobbs

i dont know if you can ruin a wrestler completely, as long as they are healthy. Okada and Ospreay are in the continental classic putting on great matches. Mercedes been consistently featured and in feuds, Jay White has had a decent year including a feud with Hangman and in the title picture, plus all the Bang Bang Gang stuff tho those guys are hurt. Toni Storm was out but back with a new gimmick and Hobbs was hurt so just getting back into the flow of things. MJF involved in a storyline now tho its not the heavyweight title that can always change. Of course Starks is a given but who knows whats going on there. But things can always change for anyone on the roster. Everyone gonna have up and down moments. There is no way for so many to be the top guy at one time. All of them are useful pieces and have been featured at various parts thru out the year. You could say that some may not have had as much success up to this point as anticipated, but they def not ruined. Giving folks the opportunity is what matters more.

Suprised you can talk with Tony Khan inside your mouth

There’s no way you actually believe that nonsense

Everybody I listed is not as hot as they were 6 months to a year ago, not even close

My name is Paul and that's between y'all.

but you tried and paint me making a joke about suburban cornball brothers and post-emo sulky white dudes lowkey making up most of AEW talent and fans... as me calling other black men c00ns when I said nothing of the sort. Said nothing even adjacent to it, actually.
In this thread.
Today.

I can't fathom a more bad-faith argument tbh.

Even when clarified, you still made no comment about what I actually said, deflected from it and tried to chide me on a 'bad joke' in a live thread designed, by definition, for jokes. Disparaging my name, because you misunderstood context.

I hate that for us.

that said, TSC is an army, better yet a navy. We need everybody, even when they dissent.
We don't need ban bets flying; it's a lose-lose
let's all just come together around the thing that everyone can enjoy:

NXT:blessed:

It was what I considered a bad joke and I left it at that. I loathe the "suburban black folks are cornballs and disconnected from hood black folks" argument and that's coming from someone that grew up in a bad neighborhood. That said, I've seen people diminish black wrestlers experience because of what they like and where they grew up. Y'all act like this ain't the same section that was calling a certain tag team The c00n Day back when they were fresh then put on the fukking waterworks when Kofi won like "WE DID IT!" a couple years later

if you want somewhere where everybody loves AEW and criticism is banned off rip why not go sign up to the AEW subreddit?

Who is a sock account? Name names :sas1:

You are a contrarian because you pick whatever is the most universally disliked part of AEW at that moment and start stanning it "ironically" like the Chris Jericho bullshyt or Daniel Garcia and Wheeler Yuta as main eventers. Dynamite barely gets 3K people week to week and I'M the one making "bad faith" arguments? :mjlol: Nevermind the fact that I predicted AEW's TV deal months in advance almost exactly to the actual year and dollar amount when none of yall would even go on record with a prediction:russell:


are you this way with your other teams too? :hhh:

You literally made my point. "y0u wAnt eH30 cHaMb3r where everyone enjoys AEW!" Squared Circle has plenty of anti AEW posts but let's just assume that only the AEW sub exists. Same with discord. You call it criticism and I compare it to the dude who's happy when a chick is down bad and says "I don't care what happens to that bytch" then gets mad when she comes up :russ: That's why I OD with the hyperbole because it doesn't matter what the fukk AEW does, it was trash when they were pulling numbers. Now that they're in a down period, this is confirmation bias to those of y'all who didn't like the shyt from kickoff.

I guess I'm imagining posters with under 100 posts randomly showing up :patrice: And I ain't looking it up either

Who the fukk cares about someone liking what others "universally" don't? Imagine saying "you ironically like this movie or album that was universally panned!" to someone. They'd be like "so what?!?" and go about their fukking day. Y'all shytted on Fletcher when he was main eventing too. Was I "ironically" stanning for him when I said he had next just for him to get put over multiple times by ex champions months later?

I've been burned out on the AEW discourse for a minute because most of the "criticism" ain't coming from a genuine place of wanting them to do better, it's just "AEW sucks, Tony Khan is an billionaire ADHD riddled money mark on adderall that won't give up the reins to his business and book to my sensibilities like I've been used to since the 90s/00s" and people flat out wanting them to fail

not everybody gonna stay as hot consistently. things change and new people come in and things rotate. but ospreay has been fairly consistent the whole time, mercedes just had her best match against stat, white is better now than 6 months ago. Okada, Ospreay, Mercedes, and I think Jay White, weren't even around a year ago. what are we basing things on when comparing today to 6 months ago? for example Ospreay, is it cuz he was facing Swerve for the world title and had the short international title run and the iron man match with MJF? does being a title holder or involved in title matches back then make him a hotter wrestler than now? Ospreay has had 33 matches since debuting and i don't think he's had many if any bad ones. I see nothing way worse about him now than back then.
