Um because the WWE and the McMahons have a 40 year history of being lying, cheating scumbags and AEW doesn't?:mindblown:

Why is this so hard for people to understand :dead:??? The WWE truly indoctrinated a large segment of fans into thinking they do nothing wrong and are incapable of having flaws. I could see kids being duped by this, but there are adults feeling like that :mjlol:


Just quoting these for more emphasis.

Like this is Vince McMahon we talkin about :comeon:


shyt is weird all around. Even with Brock going on early.:patrice:

This shyt is getting out of hand.


They weren't held hostage. No way would this shyt be this calm if they were held hostage.

They were delayed. That part is undisputed. Was it a legit mechanic issue or the Saudi government fukking with them over money that delayed them? That's the only question.

The wrestlers left behind are pissed that they didn't get special preference in getting out the country like the #Top20 alledgedly did, which I'd be pissed about too, because the Saudis chop people up. Imaginations might have been flying wild and here we are.

I don't trust WWE as much as the next person, but I'll give them some leeway. This could've been handled so much better in the following ways:

  1. You don't schedule a show halfway across the world the day before one of your main TV broadcasts. This shyt could've happened on a Wednesday.
  2. Contingencies should've been put into place to make sure everyone got out.
  3. This all could've been avoided by not doing business with the Saudis.

I think we getting stuck on the use of the word or term “hostage”:mjlol:

And some of y’all gonna defend this shyt with y’all lives based off those specific semantics

Yes no one had a gun pointed at them and was screamed aggressively (although it’s being reported the military police was there)

However, the situation does appear to be like the government was like “Na y’all ain’t leaving yet”

No different from say in school the bell rings and you gotta go but your teacher stands by the door and says “Na y’all ain’t leaving yet”.

From a technical standpoint, no the teacher isn’t holding the students in the class HOSTAGE. But for whatever his/her reason is, they not allowing the class to dismiss until they said so.

It’s as simple as that:russ:

Since the fun thing (until AEW came):mjgrin:
to do used to make fun of TNA and their financial difficulties. If this was TNA then yes, I could believe that in addition to the

“Mechanical Issues” THEY wouldn’t be able to afford making alternative options for transportation like another plane or atleast travel l to another country to then connect on some other flights out.

But this Vince and the WWE...... they touted as a billionaire company.:lolbron:


He may not have at much money as EITHER of the Khans:mjgrin:

But he got the money to quickly make arrangements to accommodate his staff:russ:

Reading this thread, I understand now how WWE continues to make money hand over fist despite the racism, mistreatment of talent, questionable business decisions, alleged criminal behavior, and not to mention being mostly garbage television for the past damn near 15+ years. Some of y'all nikkas will suck Vince off through thick and every bit of thin.
