    It would make sense. It’s not a big market for wrestling by any means and fuck that bigotry BS. I’m sure they won’t miss the 2-3 K they would draw there lol

    Also it can be a big market. WWE draws 9-10k. The people are here.

    Sorry but that line of thinking is really close to liberal “why don’t minorities just move out of the south???” bullshit

    I was more talking along the lines that it’s not worth the headache. The market can obviously be big but has proven to not be a big market for AEW. Why even risk having issues with a commission with dumbass rules when you can avoid the area and go other places that don’t discriminate against your wrestlers.

    WWE didn’t come to Oregon for about 10 years between 1993-2003 due to the athletic commission being stupid over steroid testing. Skipping markets with difficult athletic commissions has a precedent in the industry and I’d argue this is far far worse than dumbass steroid testing.

    You’re right in that sense, I get it, but felt a little too quick and very familiar to hear “well fuck all of these regular people for what these 7 white men did”

    like Oklahoma is DEEP red, you think there’s anything I can do about this? We haven’t voted for a democratic president since LBJ

    I didn’t mean it as a shot at the people in Oklahoma as much as the dumbass government/commission. I can see how my comments could have been taken the way you read them though. My bad.

    Also I can’t even imagine living in a deep red state so I get why my comment would piss you off. Everytime I go to southern/eastern Oregon I feel like I’m in the twilight zone and feel like I’m in a completely different world. It’s completely different than Portland and a bit scary. I don’t know how I’d survive living in an area like that without mouthing off to people constantly haha

    I know I said I didn’t like the new wwe tag belts but the iwgp belt is the ugliest major belt in global pro wrestling, right?
