If that's how he feels, glad for him. It is true in a lot of respects. I think my view is that they pushed an unpopular star, but then refused to give him the tools to increase his popularity. Disappointing, boring matches, bland foreign heel gimmick. Just cheap heat that went nowhere. In short, the same problem with a lot of Vince's WWE: settling for fine and appeasing Vince when they could've tried something new and it could've been great.

That's a bummer. He was going wild and I think he added a lot to the match. Hopefully it is minor and he just needs a bit of time

Adrenaline, in my soul, C'mon Too-Sweet me, Michael Cole.

This is my first time actually watching Mortos/Taurus in a full match, I'm really impressed.

Sweetened, doesn't particularly matter with what. Though I think my favorite has been a honey/citron/ginger tea from Costco. No caffeine, but the flavor was immaculate.

I don't think there is anything that could've been said to justify attacking a coworker.

Holy shit, they actually did it

I'm glad he's chosen to do the safe thing. He's done so much for the industry, sacrificed so much so freely. He's my #1 GOAT, but I don't want him in a match ever again.

Agreed. Even when folks were starting to sour, I still really liked Cody in AEW. And I understand that he has a legacy he wants to fulfill. Just kind of a bummer that he was a major part of building this rival company only to jump ship.

There's virtually no media without ads anymore. I can mostly stomach it if the content is free and the ads are not intrusive. But now it's normal for paid content to have ads. There are ads in full price video games. Advertisements have infected everything to the point it is malignant.

More specifically to wrestling, ads have been a major aspect as long as I can remember (thanks for trying to shove Stacker 2 down my throat as a minor), but at least paid events were limited to a logo during replays or animations at the top of the show. The state now is just excessive and it's gunna get worse before it gets better.

I've only ever interacted through the instance through Lemmy, which did cause some issues early on, but I haven't noticed anything lately. I'll follow the new .zip one, that's what my vote would be.

That's a wild question, cause for me and most of the people I know, a fantasy version of myself with double my income would mean not worrying about groceries, maybe a short trip out of the country once a year, being able to pay off debts, and affording some medical procedures that we've been putting off. Maybe saving some money so my kid isn't homeless in a few decades. Not some life of leisure.

To answer your question, though, it would be categorically worse.
