Match itself was just okay but also showed the issue I have with NXT and AEW fans.
Entrance was nice but why sit down at the entrance only to stand up right away?

Wrestler does elbow.."This is awesome" chant.

Cody's timing on the ladder spot was poor.


You know she's actually right... once the bell went a lot of fans booed

the issue with her tweet is that people were annoyed at the character after horrendous booking, hard to get excited for a supernatural character that cant win any matches 😆

but everyone knows what a talent Bray is, he would get it right with the help of the promoter

So you can be both(not happy with his matches and not happy with his release) without being a hypocrite. people are just so black and white extremes on twitter, i am not surprised this is not obvious... kinda embarrassing for Ronda

Strong disagree it's embarrassing for Ronda. She's really not wrong here. Daniel Bryan had it right when he said the fans are "finnicky" and made his whole gimmick around that. Big agree that Bray with the right promoter would have worked. Problem is that The Fiend was pushed too hard at first because his s*** was so awesome when he debuted against Finn that year. They strapped the rocket to him instead of building him as a monster around the roster. s*** backfired so much they had to turn Rollins heel immediately after because his stock was dead as a babyface.

You could probably go back in time and see me predict it, because I did at some point. Maybe not on this forum, but somewhere along the line.
 
If Bray's problems really were the he has anxiety and depression there is no way WWE could have depended on him, he's been given lengthy amounts of time off and this isn't some office job these are performers they have to write long term storylines for (theoretically) so you can't spend millions building someone up who will just turn around one day and say "I don't think I can do this" and go home.

I'm not saying anxiety and depression aren't real things I've been on anti anxiety/depression medication since I was 20 years old but I also get why a company that does what WWE does can't commit to pushing him if he's going to turn around every 3 months and need time off for depression or some kind of physical injury which is another problem he has.

AEW shouldn't hire him either, it'll just look more like they are still trying to cash in on Brodie Lee's death and they won't be able to depend on him either.

He also lands it cleaner than Hogan did
His hips and spine must have been so messed up from doing that for as long as he did, I know he wasn't as heavy as Hogan but Hulk was messed up badly from doing his leg drop as a finisher.

Darby Allin accused of rape by ex Hawlee Cromwell
Reading her words seems like it's a bunch of regret, but he's a really s***ty person. He didn't lay a hand on her. He didn't force her to have sex no matter how she tries to twist the word "forced." It's not rape in any sense of the word. He was mentally abusive, but she clearly shows that she could have left anytime she wanted to, but was afraid to lose him. That's all on her. She could have, and should have, left him.

I'm not about to get into the finer points of an abusive relationship on a wrestling thread, but I'll just say as someone who didn't realize they were in a mentally abusive relationship until it was almost too late. It's not easy to leave, especially when your self confidence is so down that you think that what you're doing is the right thing even though you're incredibly unhappy. Once you do though you look back and scream at yourself for not doing it a long time ago.

Your take isn't exactly wrong, but there's so much more you and I don't know about that it's kind of ignorant.

Anyways, wrestling is cool and Darby Allin is a f***head

I'm sorry that you had to go through that. Happening to males doesn't get enough attention.

About the rest of your post, "Reading her words." Going by what she wrote, she had many chances to get out, but she didn't. I'm sure her friends told her to get out. I'm sure other people did as well. She decided to stay. She has to take some, not saying all, responsibility. She, for sure, helped enable the situation she was in.

Calling it rape is going too far, I don't think people who had a gun or knife held at them and their lives literally threatened or who were beaten down physically until they gave in would consider what she's talking about rape either. He could very well be a total piece of s***, it wouldn't surprise me but what he did isn't rape and she shouldn't be making that comparison. You can be mentally abusive which he may be but that doesn't make a person a rapist it just makes them a garbage bag of a human being, who often time have their own mental issues.
 
So Caster gets suspended for 2 months for his rap last week, does anyone believe Tony Khan didn't know what was in that rap? he was at the event and it was taped 6 days before it aired. I have a hard time believing he doesn't watch every second of every show before it goes live. I have no doubt Caster had that approved and ended up being the fall guy after the mild backlash that followed.
 
He clearly knew but this is what he does whenever they get negative press. Gets defensive and claims it was all down to other people and claims something different will happen going forward.
And like you said it happened 6 days before it aired so I doubt no one bought it to Khan's attention if he didn't somehow hear it at he time.
