^^^^^^YES


Wrestling fandom has been full of racist pieces of shyt from jump; trying to make this an AEW vs WWE thing is weird as fukk and just makes it seem like you believe that racism in wrestling popped up in 2019 when AEW was formed.


This…. All of this

[/Thread]

The irony no one wants to admit is that same people that attend these indie shows are the same that attend every other show from all companies.

Also, let’s not forgot when they was shytting on Naomi a few years back.

It’s not one companies fans it’s the fans in general…. And this shyt is indeed terrible

Its weird yall wanna throw mud on those fans like they just randomly appeared when AEW was formed. Lio has been getting shytted on by cacs for years. Yall conveniently forget the Asuka joke that everyone dogpiled him for that Regal shut down. Fans got on him for that too.

The stan shyt is fun for fantasy but yall take it too serious. A black man got hurt directly caused by racists. Thats it. Focus on that.

I won't go as far as the reply above but is there some rampant anti trans sentiment that wrestling has that I don't know about? I mean there is an entire culture of "exoticos" in Mexico...we have had Adrian Adonis, goldust, significantly more gay wrestlers than any other sport or sports ent, and currently open trans wrestlers on national tv. And I don't recall people calling trans or LGBTQ wrestlers f@g or whatnot they way Lio is saying (in *2022*) he got drinks thrown at him and called slurs. That isn't happening to Nyla Rose...

It is always an insulting comparison to me.

I mean, I'm sure wrestlers got called all kinds of slurs and phobic/racist names back in the day. They just chucked it up to that "being the business" and "getting heat".

In 2022 I think there's enough evidence that retarded MAGA/Qanon/antivax people are actively watching wrestling. And they are the "white dude that leads the movement" instead of "white boy who's been outcast". So they out here being phobic and racist because that's who they are :scust:

Folks seem to be conveniently forgetting that most of the Lio hate in the IWC started when he was outspoken about WWE when he was there.
Neckbeards are universal and they watch all of this shyt even if they are just hate watching a specific company's shows.

There's no denying that the Swole situation amplified these racist dorks but the idea that WWE is some kind of cool kids club that only cool people watch is beyond laughable.

Nobody is saying WWE have cool fans, the point is that the most toxic cringy neckbeard segment of the pro wrestling audience not only overwhelmingly prefers one company, that company caters to them and actively vies for their affection.

It wouldn't be a WWE/AEW thing if AEW didn't cozy up to the neckbeards. WWE has plenty of incel weirdo fans too, but they seemingly don't make booking directions anymore based on what will pop the neckbeard segment of the fanbase. They tried with the super-indy phase of NXT but that is in the rear view now.

So what does that make NXT from 2015-2021? Not the first time someone said dumb shyt as an excuse. :unimpressed:

Whatever happened to just ignoring something you don’t like and going on with your life? Instead y’all pay as much attention and talk about it as those who watch the product. :mjlol:

lol he literally addressed this in the post you quoted



I think AEW is smart to market directly to the die hard neckbeard segment of the crowd. that's literally what differentiates them from WWE and makes them a true alternative.


booking for the casuals in an attempt to mirror WWE is where TNA went wrong. AEW isn't gonna make that same mistake. They know who got them here, and they're gonna feed them. WWE has tricked muhfukkas into believing making decisions based in pleasing your paying customer is a bad thing
