Also a Tweet he made about it that he's since deleted
Misandry is real, and a HUGE problem. Far more so than misogyny. However I don’t care enough to do anything about it, but still real talk.

Dean works better in feuds where he can use comedy
He against Miz was a good idea, but now were gonna have another feud against Bray. And Miz gonna destroy Finn on the mic, while he just try to look cool and do his Demon King stuff
Looks like GunBR is the newest member of the FINN BALOR JUST KICKED MY ASS CLUB!

PWG - Arguably the top US indy currently. Less of a traditional promotion, PWG is a hangout for wrestlers across the indies to go all out and have fun. Shows can be exhausting, and the delay from show to release is maddening. Worth it.

PROGRESS - The top of the bustling UK indy scene (I'm biased.) More of a storyline focus than a lot of indies, with great matches and a hot crowd. You're missing out. Get on it.

ICW - Staunchly adult focused wrestling from Scotland. The attitude era worship is evident, and may not be for everyone.

lol that House of Horrors nonsense was as shit as expected, maybe even worse, having it set at night while I'm pretty sure the sun was still out in California, Randy having a fridge dropped on him as Bray runs away to come back only for Randy to show up seemingly before him while no worse for wear as Bray hobbled his way to the ring despite that long rest only for the Jinder Bread Gang to show up to save Bray, making him once again look like a total schmuck. Big shock Alexa Bliss won in Bayley's home town, didn't see that coming. /s

It's still funny to watch the guy who they so badly want to be their new face of the company get the hate no matter what attempts at sympathy they try, at this point he could be flat out, legit executed in the middle of the ring and there'd be loud cheers.

Interesting that they not only let Bliss beat her clean (WTF) but that Sasha didn't show up at all.

I think it wasn't a clean win and they wanted to have the working of Bayley's head be a heel tactic since they brought it up on commentary but it didn't come off as such.

I miss the Twisted Bliss. She never does it anymore.

I think they figured out that people might cheer that move. The way Neville barely does the Red Arrow anymore.

Judging by his twitter, TJP would fit in very well with the low key misogynists that come out in droves in GAF OT once you mention women or talk about rape cases...

quote I just saw...

There is a literal army of dissatisfied, disenchanted, mostly male young adults ripe for radicalization.

Scary times.

And there is a literal army of dissatisfied, disenchanted, mostly male young adults ripe for radicalization. The internet is host to what the writer and programmer David Auerbach calls ”the first wide-scale collective gathering of those who are alienated, voiceless, and just plain unsocialized" — seeking freedom from the disappointments of the physical world in places where social interaction is decoupled from material and emotional signals they don't understand or have access to. ”There's people that are, like, behind the counter at a Pizza Hut or whatever, and their intellect and their skills are not being used in the real world in a way that's appealing to them," the web-comic artist and longtime 4chan observer Dale Beran tells me. ”The only interesting stuff that's going on is the internet and video games."

Yep yep yep. I admit, I used to be the same way, until I grew the fuck up and matured. It's sadly rare that that ever happens, and it makes me worried for the future once these people get in a position of power (maybe they already are).

I don't know how I would be mentally if I was still single. No kids, no wife.

Being forever alone, is well. Not good for you. You need people in your life even if it isn't the traditional wife and kids. REAL WORLD interactions.

edit: I don't know how wrestling' fits in all this, but at least it's trying to be more PC. I mean in some ways, it's far less embarrassing now than back then.

Aries is one of the only people who can make a suicide dive look impactful.

This match was really good. Men at work.

100 percent true. That's the saddest thing to me when people get radicalized-a lotta these young guys are smart. They KNOW that what they're signing up for is ugly, and toxic. But the need to belong is a bigger priority. It's a massive part of being able to survive life.

My favorite match of the night. Haven't even wrapped my head around it enough to talk about it.

Neville needs to take this run to new heights and propel himself to the Championship title divisions.
 
Booker T losing it on commentary at the end of the tag match was absolute gold.

That was the first time commentary really made an impact on me in forever.

Cole is such an immense bitch. He's a far worse offender in Otunga IMO just due to how relentlessly he spews his prewritten lines. He's exhausting to have to listen to. The type of asshole who monopolizes everyone's time and you just can't wait for him to go away.
 
Jesus, Sheamus punted Jeff right in the face. Looks like a tooth got knocked out.

Between the ugly bump to the outside, the boot to the face and Matt bleeding I was getting worked into some "end the damn match!"

Edit: Ha. I cancelled after Mania and didn't realize until like 7:30 last night my sub was still active. Glad it worked out. Overall a very solid PPV. By Raw standards, anyway.
