I'm assuming they've dropped it due to the backlash since Juice didn't bring up the quarters again in the Collision promo.

I guarantee that didn’t even fucking happen to MJF. Dude grew up on on Long Island, it’s the 4th largest Jewish community in the nation. A lot of his fellow classmates were Jews guaran-fucking-teed.

On Collision they had a video package where MJF meets up with some old New England Patriots guy (sorry, I don't sportsball) to fight antisemitism or whatever. Surprised no one brought that up to laugh at.

I was having fun with the commentators saying, for the second night in a row, that "something's different about Sky Blue. Like her demeanor or something." When it's literally just her doing her eye makeup differently so that it sorta resembles her still having black mist spray in her eyes. Plus extra scowling.

Honestly comparing him to Dixie Carter feels kind of disrespectful to Dixie. Yeah she was a money mark that got worked by the people she hired, but at least she managed to maintain a little bit of her dignity and didn't expose herself this badly.

Dixie liked to fuck big roidy men, she basically made her own little fiefdom of man flesh. Dixie is based. Stupid, but based. Love that dumb horny slut.

Make him a pre-order bonus for 2k24 with his Ecw version, mitb 2011 & "I'm old. I'm tired & I work with children" and use the all out 2022 attire and have him promote the game.

I like where your head is at you madlad. :evil:

Have an event at the united center in Chicago announcing the game cover and a hall of fame induction. Let him shoot on aew for a couple minutes followed up by 15,000 people chanting "fuck you tony".

:popcorn:
 
Tony needs to hand the book for the ROH and Collision to someone like Jericho or at least get someone to handle the book for the lower league and women division matches

The thing is a guy like Jericho isn't interested in being tard wrangler, or EVP, or rescue booker for anyone. He's a wrestler; sure he'll give pointers to the younger guys if they're willing to listen, and he's definitely a positive influence wherever he's at, but he's not this magical crowbar that'll get tony out of the hole he's dug himself into.

I don't know why I keep seeing people bring up Jericho like this ignored Messiah that will usher a golden age in AEW, if that was ever going to happen, it would have already. He's a talent, not an executive.

Then Tony needs to hire an actual writing team or look towards talent in the company or outside indie talent to help book shows even if its the midcard and womens division so he can focus on bigger things such as expanding the company and the main event scene.

I'm thinking having Cody or orton be the coverstar and showcase focus with punk being the pre-order bonus and have jade & pillman Jr be the first dlc pack and call itbthe "Jacksonville escapee's" pack.

In general it's cope because if he has nothing but his wrestling then he's been a pretty mediocre signing for AEW in all bar giving them an initial boost in reputation. He had ONE good match in New Japan (in his recent run I'm not counting his WCW runs) about three good matches in AEW and has spent the past 10 years pretty much sucking up far too much TV time in heatless feuds that last 6+ months. That Kevin Owen's best friends storyline culminating in one of the worst Wrestlemania matches I've ever seen (between full time talent) should have been the moment he was told "thanks but no thanks" and put on gardening leave until his contract expired.

He's a popular guy and a booker's favourite for having the ability to fill up TV time with a Jericho segment but it's been diminishing gains for a long time and I do laugh whenever anyone just assumes any old wrestler can just become a road agent or a producer or a booker. Writers and road agents get paid fuck all compared to being active talent, and bookers are still a decent step down in wage while adding so many extra responsibilities (Nash basically said that he earned an extra 200k per year from being a booker in WCW which was about half his WCW wage), so in general any wrestler wants to grind out as many years as active talent as they can before they can't do it anymore.

Anyone who wants to hand Jericho the book should look at the shit he's apparently enthusiastic about doing and realize he does not need to be in control of anything right now. Your best bet would be asking JR for advice, but he seems so wiped out and bored most of the time that I'm not even sure he cares anymore.

If Jericho booked nothing would ever end and nothing would get solved.
JR co owns a weed business with his family and seems to be sampling the goods. That's why he's Not So Salty JR now.

Danielson is doing a lot of work in Collision for creative, that's why it tends to be better now.
 
So, Impact put out an image of the Bound for Glory card, and there’s some sped bait. What’s the bait you ask? Well look at the Card
IMG_9735.jpeg

To lightly quote the speds I’ve seen
>BfG is in Chicago
>4 Stars in the corners
>CM Punk had similar stars on his gear
>Therefore CM Punk to Impact confirmed

To which I say, please God no - Punks signing might do the unthinkable and finally kill Impact, solely from how big of a bag he’d probably demand, and I actually like Impact…
 
Tony needs to delegate some of the booking duties to someone. Idrgaf who. If Danielson is doing some of the creative for Collision, then great. Tony needs to do more of that.

It would be really funny if Impact were the only place Phil could find work. But I'm going to remain cautiously optimistic that they aren't going to bother trying to afford him, and that this is just mark bait.
 
I don't think Phil given his political beliefs would work for a Jew even if the Jew could afford him. Certainly not one whose father is named Israel. Even if the guy was well liked and saw 1.5k people at his funeral including Chretien (one of Canada's few good PM's).If he found about the guys support of Irgun he'd quit.
