It’s Britney, bitch
I mean, I think it's equally as silly as getting upset about 14 people disliking your favorite, respectfully. It's really not THAT shocking to me either, some AEW fans thought his behavior was abhorrent and hiring him after getting fired pissed them off. I feel like it's wasted energy to care about that, try to remember not everyone reveers the guy and some die hards are gonna think he's a big bitch lol
I wasn’t upset about, I said I wasn’t being salty about that idc what people think about him. I just think it’s ridiculous that those people thought it was worse than the Vince stuff.

fwiw as much as I dislike the guy he wouldn't have made my top 10 lol , shit I'd have voted Mountain Dew sponsorship match as more disgusting lmao

yeah I have answer for thinking worse than vince, that's pretty mind boggling. I can just see why people would include it on their disgusting tactic list (hiring a troubled ''violent'' fired guy so close to being sacked). but in the grand scheme of things, there's much grosser things in both companies that happened, objectively too imo

Since I see some discourse on social media about it, I’ll see what y’all think.


Worst Match of the Year: Bray Wyatt vs LA Knight 1/28 San Antonio

Seen people thinking this should have been left off, out of respect. I can, kinda agree. Plus I’m not even sure it was really the worst match of 2023.


What y’all say?

my 2024 early contenders :
HHH promoting his show as an answer to Vince allegations
TNA firing Scott and telling their talent he quit
TNA promoting they re-signed Josh only to be called out and changing it to we exercised our option

yeah the one vote thing is the convo here too bc that means it was their number one choice lol it's not like everyone is sending in top 10 lists. That would be a bit different

I say it was the right call, but I'd have also voted for Cole Jericho

It wasn't the worst match of the year but I don't agree it should be left off.

I think it should’ve been left off personally. I think Cole and Jericho was worse imo.

I don't think matches stop existing because people pass away. I understand it's gonna hurt some people's feelings though. TBH I guess negative awards are always gonna piss ppl off and that is why they are controversial.

It was a pretty dogshit match on a giant stage, I don't think that can be contested.

I agree that Jericho Cole was worse because, quite frankly, nobody expected the Wyatt match to be good and were proven right. The Jericho Cole match had no business being that shite lol
 

Hoss

HELL IS NOT A MYTH
It's a valid selection and I don't feel it's anything to really be emotional about. It isn't an attack on who Bray Wyatt was as a man, friend, husband and father.

That said, I also think there probably were worse matches. EC3 vs. Tyrus no doubt. Gable vs. Corbin maybe. Jericho vs. Cole woulda also been valid in my mind.
