The worst thing about the best times is that you dont realize theyre the best times when theyre happening.

Imagine telling Ron Simmons and JBL no to the finish they want and then getting into the ring. Those two were always terrifying because they were fucking HUGE and one of the best at selling how dangerous they were. Shit, I'd ask "how many tables do you want me to go through sir?" Scott Steiner is a legitimate crazy person and even he was knew to never mess with Simmons. And I love how JBL doesn't deny the accusations that he was a bully. You just don't understand until you work in an industry when there is a code and unwritten ways of doing things. There exists a pecking order for a reason.
"Hey Ron, how come the Stieners don't fuck with you?"
"Because I'm un-fuckwithable."

Not so sure about JBL though, especially if it's true that Joey Styles knocked him on his butt. Also Steve Blackman went straight Wa-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta on him. "Mr. Pritchard, he'd already hit me 5 times by the time I realized I was in a fight!"

JBL is the type of bully who instantly caves when you put him in a position to either put up or shut up.
 
Not that I'm offended or anything but I think it's insane that they had a quick tribute to Ted Turner at the beginning of Smackdown on the same episode that closes with the funeral of the gingerbread man. Only in wrestling.

There is an alternate timeline where Steve's foot didn't get caught on a traveling bag and he takes JBL's head off with a Cro Cop style head kick.
 
Just watched the "Gingerbread Man funeral" segment from SmackDown out of morbid curiosity and this is some peak senile Vince McMahon shit. Terrible jokes, AI slop, Sami the supposed heel rightfully calling out what a waste of time and money this all is before he gets beat up by Trick's idiot rapper friend to make Sami look like the biggest geek on the planet. Bottom of the barrel trash.
 
When it comes to Wrestling merchandise, especially expensive shit like the $750 WM42 Punk vs. Roman belt, who buys this shit?:

And how much are the profit margins on merch like this? It seems like wrestling fans can rival anime fans with much of consoomers they are.

"Collectors". The same dipshits who buy trading cards, sneakers, special edition versions of movies/vidya.

Basically, people who fall for the bullshit of buying expensive "limited edition"/"rare" tat because the people who are making it have fooled them into thinking that it is worth something.
 
I think belt collecting is kinda sorta cool if you're a huge fan, have the disposable income, and you're buying replicas of the actual title but keep it modest. You're not going out and buying a replica of every single belt because be honest, what the fuck enjoyment are you getting out of seeing the women's intercontinental title staining your collection? Like I don't think anyone in here, if they were to visit someone's house and they had the blue strap Big Eagle with WWF on it and not the E that that would come off as lame. I think it becomes gay when you start buying belts of your favorite sports teams, every individual wrestler you like who has one of those hideous custom designs, or some belt to commemorate some random ppv. At that point you're just mindlessly consooming and might as well collect funky pops like the faggot you are.

It's being reported that Molly Holly was the producer for the segment of Sami "killing" the Gingerbread Man. She spent too much time with Hurricane back in 2001-2002.

That fat piece of shit Nia Jax fucked up yet again and managed to bust open Paiges head with a mic shot.

I suppose that now Kairi is gone she needs to find new people to legit injure.
 
The sickos will tell you AEW respects women.

I swear Tony is Bizarro Heyman, able to identify a talent's weakness and emphasis it as much as possible. We have a hot, MILFy Japanese chick, but she doesn't speak English very good... I know! Let's stick her in cringey backstage segments where she does all the talking and sounds retarded speaking broken Engrish. Cherry on top let's give her a tag partner who's name she can't pronounce.
"Hahrry! Rook in your heartaru!"

It's absurd they refuse to get rid of her because she's part of the coconut nigger squad. Has there been a more dangerous person in wrestling history? From a sheer incompetence standpoint.
 
Is that good or bad?
Considering they are billions of dollars in debt, they would have to have a year like that on both programs for the next half decade just to break even and be in the black.
That's not even counting the $5 billion dollar Netflix deal for WWE or the $1.6 billion dollar deal that ESPN made to stream their pay per views exclusively in America for $30 dollars a shot that literally anyone with an IQ higher than a nigger realized you can circumvent with an $8 dollar VPN.
AEW finally became profitable at the beginning of 2026. For the first time in history, AEW makes a profit and WWE does not. :story:
TKO is about $5 billion in debt currently so add $6.6 billion for the underperforming Netflix deal and EXTREMELY underperforming ESPN deal, and that's about an $11 billion dollar debt.

He got that glass jaw tapped by an announcer and was knocked out cold.

It's amazing that Nia and Sami Zayn still have jobs and Kairi got cut. I literally do not care about Sami Zayn, heel or face. He is an annoying Canadian muslim who is only there because he speaks the language of the blood money covered dick CM Punk sucks.
Nia has hurt so many people they need to change her from a wrestler to an enforcer style manager if she can't get with the program. So many useless fucking drongos in this company and they are cutting actual TALENT.

AEW are pretty clever with their contracts because they'll split peoples pay with NJPW and/or CMLL and let guys take indie bookings so they can offer a little less money up front on their own deals because talent feels like they have other avenues to earn.

That and they are pretty good at scaling their events to different venues. They'll run a 2000 seater that costs them fuck all rather than push for the bigger arenas for anything outside of PPVs. Their production budget is probably fairly small as well because they don't really do a whole lot of fancy shit outside of pyro and i believe WBD covers a good chunk of it anyway.
