    Right. Except in the tweet you brought up, the first thing he mentions is social media numbers.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭Jerichoholic


    No, you're completely missing his point.

    That's the tweet he responded to, nothing to do with suicide.

    That he’s sad that 200k people enjoyed the video. Is 200k not a number anymore?? On social media? Therefore social media numbers? That he doesn’t care about despite that forming the basis for the point he’s making? “Look how many people watch this crap” is essentially what he’s saying. He’s not picking on a video with 50 hits, hes not picking on the MOST racist video he’s ever seen, he’s picking this one because, in his own words, it has a high view count. That’s what makes him sad. He literally said that. Like I’m quoting the tweet you posted here, just read your own post, it’s all there.

    But I’m the one missing the point.

    Props to Omega for calling out that utter cretin Paul on his pathetic behaviour.

    Oh lord, it's not about the numbers at all! It's more likely the fact that such awful behaviour attracted that kind of traffic is somewhat upsetting since it's such a beautiful country.

    Japan has an amazing culture, the people are so respectful and go out of their way to help you in any way they can. That said, they are still wary of foreigners to an extent so any actions by foreigners that makes them uncomfortable or is straight up disrespectful, will unfortunately tar us all with the same brush.

    “205 Live” Superstar Rich Swann was “suspended indefinitely” by WWE after being arrested in late 2017 on battery and kidnapping charges. On Tuesday, TheWrap asked Triple H — WWE’s executive vice president of Talent, Live Events and Creative — for an update on Swann’s employment status.

    “We are just waiting on the legal,” the 14-time WWE Champion told us. “We have a zero tolerance policy on that, as you’ve well seen. So he’s suspended until it is determined legally one way or the other.”

    “And if he’s convicted, he will be released,” Triple H’s wife and WWE’s Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon added, meaning that he will be dropped by the company.

    “Immediately,” her husband Triple H chimed back in.

    The 'All In' photoshops on twitter are already not funny.

    Rumours are 23rd September. Saw that on the WON board and on Twitter.

    He'd still have a non compete, so he wouldn't get to wrestle for a few months after that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,689 ✭✭✭sky88

    Is there still a non compete if the contract runs out??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭Jerichoholic


    You would think so right?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,945 ✭✭✭Monokne


    He can't be given a non compete when he's out of contract. The non compete is a condition of the release. WWE agrees to pay the other party for 3 months and in exchange the other party agrees not to work for the competition. They can't just say "oh we know you're not under any contract to us and we aren't paying you, but you're not allowed to work anywhere for 3 months".

    Paige is not expected to be cleared until after the Royal Rumble and the injury is worse than first thought, apparently.

    Shame as she has had a string of setbacks between the multiple leaks, the failed tests, and the prior neck injury.

    It was a stinker wasn't it ? Or at least that's what it looked like. Clearly not obviously. That's a bit worrying.

    I shouldn't laugh at the poor girls injury but this autocorrect/typo got me. What would that injury be?

    Which is obviously what I meant to say. Autocorrect is a curse.

    Yes.

    Interesting.

    The timeframe would feel feel pretty tight. I mean you would think Bucks and Cody would be promoting the hell out of the fact they'd have Bryan weeks and even months in advance.

    You can only imagine the rage of WWE would be in if that were to happen while Bryan was still on their books. I'd love to see it, purely for the fact it'd be unchartered territory for them.

    Bryan won't be available for all in on September 1s regardless. His WWE deal is up late September. 23rd is the rumoured date. Meltzer confirmed it was later in September today.

    Yeah, sept 1st really puts DB out of the picture. Green Arrow is cool, but you wonder what big name they have? if any.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭Jerichoholic


    It must be Punk.
