yeah but do you keep that job for as long as she did if you're bad at it or is the nepotism just that deep?

 

It's really a "who the hell knows" situation. I'm sure it was a bevy of factors. They should really just sell the company.

 

Considering the article says the emails were sent to the board, its very hard to imagine she didnt know...would either mean all the non-McMahon board members kept a lid on it and/or she somehow never checks her email

And Luke Harper and Miro and Bray Wyatt were all difficult to work with...

We've seen a really consistent pattern of WWE removing someone from their orbit and shit-talking them on the way out to justify the move, no matter how unjustifiable the move has been.

Dont doubt that Steph might not have measured up in the Khan world where every penny is being measured, but, doenst seem like that alone gets her the boot.

 

More amazing part to me is that Johnny Ace had old NDA from his shit, was out of the company for years, and still got back in as Head of Talent Relations in 2021. Some real dodgy corporate work there

 

Gonna delete the original post because I feel like I worded it kinda irresponsibly

He's not outright saying talent thinks he's drunk, but I think he is because that's the only reason talent would be concerned other than a head injury?

 

Meltz says Steph would have known but interesting tweet he's replying to and doesn't refute

 

I also totally forgot about the head injury story. Saying “I hope it was that” seems bad but when the alternative is what it is, I hope it was that..

 

What
Wife,
Eh?

 

Johnny Ace rhymes too well with everything...Tony Khan gonna be sweating bullets when Max steps up live

 

Hahaha, oh man, the Wardlow match is only pinfall/submission...so he's gonna pin 20 dudes in a variety of insane ways I imagine

 

SRS's report on Vince says people suspected it, Johnny Ace's shittiness was always rumored about for years, but that Vince will fight to stay with Johnny Ace being the fall guy because everyone already hates him.


SRS is also a king and used this to randomly bury Nia Jax (maybe? Because his sources don't seem like they'd say that based on the other things they're saying to him)

 

"and Jax was dismissed as "bitter" on background."

Ah yes, the old WWE way. The second anyone comes at you (even as shitty as Nia is), they are instantly unprofessional and bitter and hard to work with.

 

If anyone wants some good news....Ultramantis Black is still wrestling.

 

Not saying that mainstream media companies always get it right, but as someone who works in this industry and with a ton of experience as a fact-checker, there is something both hilarious and depressing about a wrestling fan on Twitter looking to Metlzer for confirmation on a Wall Street fucking Journal report lmao. No offense to Big Daddy Meltz, but I think the level of reporting and FCing at the WSJ is a bit more thorough than what Dave does

 

how many dudes do you think he'll manage to pin at once?

 

I'd vote for stacking them up like cordwood and pinning at least 1/3rd of them at once
