Never thought I’d see the day that I would see somebody accuse Jerome of misogyny. Terrible taste in wrestling sure, but never this. To be clear, it’s not my intention to accuse anyone, as the motivations of an individual when choosing one word over another are almost impossible to pin down and, frankly, not terribly interesting to me. (I’m not sure what the end goal of that would be, in this context, anyway.) I’m much more interested in focusing attention on larger questions about how we discuss this stuff, because it’s much more important (and, again, more interesting to me).

June 19, 20223 yr comment_5984007 This Vince news and discussion going to shit because of the word "Stephy" is internet board arguments 101, I guess PWO ain't exempt from them
June 19, 20223 yr comment_5984010 It seems from every report I've seen so far, Vince is in full swinging dick alpha mode over this. History has shown when he gets like this we're about to see some completely bonkers shit soon.

Speaking only for me, that is pretty spot on, not a mystery for anyone here really... But it's actually even funnier than this for anyone who knows me IRL. Considering the exchange I just had with a friend yesterday if I told him this he would literally die laughing at the absurdity. But anywoo, won't elaborate, enough time and energy wasted already. 2 hours ago, The Thread Killer said: Terrible taste in wrestling sure, but never this. Does that includes my love for FTR ?
June 19, 20223 yr comment_5984015 Not what I expected when I clicked on the thread. Anyway, Vince McMahon-Johnny Ace-Kevin Dunn is a sex ring and has been for 20 years. There's a follow-up WSJ article coming.

June 19, 20223 yr comment_5984018 I too frequently attend live Pro Wrestling events and hold up signs which are completely blank. I feel it adds to the aura of mystery which surrounds me.

June 20, 20223 yr comment_5984037 On 6/18/2022 at 5:05 PM, Cien Caras said: Ignorant racists in the UK will say “if people shorten British to Brits and Australians to Aussies then why can’t I call Pakistanis pakis?” the arrogance of someone getting called out on their own ignorance and calling said person a “troll” because of their shitty misogyny and patronizingly demeaning a woman with an infantilizing nickname. The trolling is to consistently post incessant repetitive boomer “hot takes” in the WWE forum about a promotion that they supposedly hate like it’s 1998 while fawning over the shittiest CrossFit to desperately appear relevant. That you can’t see how inapt that comparison is bespeaks that your “moral conviction” on this matter is just aesthetic.
June 21, 20223 yr comment_5984123 SRS reporting Bruce Prichard is the new head of talent relations after Laurinatis is on a "administrative leave".
June 21, 20223 yr comment_5984134 I expect plenty of "Stephanie loved me, but that son of a bitch Brother Love" on podcasts in the coming months.

June 22, 20223 yr comment_5984179 In case you missed it, Vince settled the Oliver Luck lawsuit. https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Daily/Closing-Bell/2022/06/20/Luck-McMahon-XFL.aspx The terms weren't disclosed, but I'm willing to bet Luck made out like a bandit. It seems likely that Vince did whatever he had to do to make the lawsuit go away because testifying under oath, especially about his moral character, is the last thing he wants to do right now.
June 24, 20223 yr comment_5984307 Yup, Luck hit the lottery having the Vince news break right when the lawsuit was going to hit the courts. I'm sure ol' Jerry just called him and asked how many zeros would suffice on the check.
June 24, 20223 yr comment_5984339 Well, maybe between two shows in Saudi Arabia they can keep on "Influencing the world" in term of women's rights in Texas or Louisiana now. (I know, I know, PWO and all, but some days, it's like... just dystopian level shit... this is just so awful)

But hey, at least we can collect foreign currency.
June 28, 20223 yr comment_5984655 https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/06/vince-mcmahon-accused-of-rape-by-first-female-wwe-referee.html There's an article about Rita Chatterton in New York magazine. What makes it notable is that I believe this is the first time someone has gone on the record to corroborate her claims (Mario Mancini in this case). Maybe the floodgates really are opening.

From Cageside Seats: In the Observer’s Daily Update, Dave Meltzer notes that neither WWE nor Jerry McDevitt have commented on the updated Vince McMahon rape allegation. Meltzer speculates that’s because the media hasn’t picked up the story, so it “doesn’t appear to be harmful to McMahon’s position right now.” So, nothing will happen. Nothing ever happens. As usual with the mainstream media, Wrestling Doesn't Matter.

It's so unfair. If it was in any other entertainment or business, it would be all over the media. Good for Mario Mancini (I actually remember this guy doing jobs !). Also, he says "There's worse stuff than that." I really hope that one day, some day, everybody gets the full picture of what this dipshit really is about (not that there isn't enough out there already to get the picture). Enough of the cognitive dissonance with this family.
June 28, 20223 yr comment_5984668 Wrestling news is competing with the January 6th hearings for attention. Of course it doesn't matter compared to that.
June 28, 20223 yr comment_5984678 So it looks like Sasha got her release on June 10, but the company hasn't publicized it yet because "they are hoping the new management can smooth things over". I guess we know Bruce's top job priority is right now.
