Wife was curious why fans love Hangman so much 🤼‍♂️
OH, I forgot my other reason for not always considering AEW criticism

Because often times the criticism ends up being "you don't do it like WWE, and you should" and it turns out what they're criticizing is actually a feature instead of a bug
Andy hit the nail on the head, it always gets me when people present their subjective opinions as objective fact...when often they end up being false anyway

"AEW doesn't tell stories"
"The matches are happening for no reason"
"They don't sell"
"Don Callis gets zero reaction" (I JUST SAW this one)
The whole thing is a waste of time.

As a fan, I don’t have to agree with your criticism. Saying it can’t be accepted is just a roundabout way of saying your opinion is fact, and I must adopt it or I’m ignoring facts.

I have my own criticisms. I make them all the time. They don’t adopt mine either

'AEW fans can never accept criticism...'

When 90% of it (on x) is bad faith, tribalistic & toxic then never accept criticism and always question it. 🤷‍♂️ Lol!

I was just thinking about how a massive clue to the protag figuring out the twist of the first arc of Sword Art Online was the revelation "there's nothing more boring than watching someone else play an RPG"

....I know the manga was written in 02, but the episode aired a year after Twitch launched 😂

Sitting down to watch that Tony Khan/Ariel Helwani interview

.....54 minutes into an 80 minute interview, when asked what's the status of Adam Cole, the first time that Tony actually takes a second to collect his thoughts 😔

That said more than anything he actually said 🤼‍♂️

Pretty sure the men's B&G was the first blood and guts where someone didn't surrender to save someone else 🤔

Sammy surrendered to save jericho
Daddy Magic tapped to save Jericho
Mox surrendered to save Yuta
The Bucks surrendered to save Perry
Toni surrendered to save Mina

*Someone says something objectively wrong about Tony Khan*

*you correct them*

"Wow, you just love to bend over backwards defending billionaires, huh?" 🤼‍♂️

My Dungeons and Dragons hot take of the month

"Battlefield Control" bores me. Hell I rarely play a full caster anyway, but I just hate the idea of casting hypnotic pattern over fireball (though I prefer lightning bolt over both) 🏰🐉🎲

You can tell a lot about a person by how long into season 4 of Attack on Titan it took for them to realize so-and-so was the bad guy

As a white man, I hate AI for appropriating my culture of being confidently wrong about things while using Reddit as a primary source.

I'm not saying Rusev is lying about not refusing to do jobs

What I am saying is it's funny his argument was "look at when I lost to Sammy, or Bryan, or whoever!" When there is no 'whoever,' it was literally just Sammy and Bryan 😅 🤼‍♂️

One of the worst things about modern day superhero media is this fascination with turning J Jonah Jameson into Alex Jones

There's something really sad about clickbait that pulls the "they won 5 titles in WWE, therefore they are a 5 time WWE champion"

"Those were for charity, Clark" remains one of the greatest lines of dialogue in comic book history

You know, I heard for 10 years that Witcher 3 is one of the greatest games of all time, so I forced myself through witcher 1 and am currently a good chunk into 2 because I wanted full context, only to learn Witcher 3 ended up having a ton of content cut so it doesn't matter

Seriously though, did people actually watch X-7 or do they just say it was the GOAT on reputation? 🤼‍♂️

Watching Air, the film about how Nike signed Michael Jordan

My wife: Why does this movie exist?

Me: Because they already told every other underdog story in sports.

My favorite part of Fantasy Football is my drafting strategy for kickers is always "Okay...what team has the worst QB...."

If I'm honest I'm underwhelmed with the card tonight. Kinda feels more like "Title IMPLICATIONS Tuesday" 🤼‍♂️

I love videogames but I hate starting new games, because those first few hours that are often just tutorials are torture, but it's not like I can play without it,....I'd be lost having no idea how the game works

Man, some people on the other site did NOT take this well
My favorite part of this is the WWE-only viewers who go "I have no idea who the guy on the right is......but Cena's has been so bad it has to be that guy by default"

On a whim rewatched Orton/Foley

Honestly? Still holds up 🤼‍♂️

This ROH discourse reminds me of the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. At points it being called the jobber match and an insult if you're put in it 🤼‍♂️

Y'all remember who was in the first one?

Cesaro
Big Show
Sheamus
Mysterio
Del Rio
Ziggler (still over)
Kofi
Miz
Mark Henry
