AEW Collision/WBD upfronts MegaThread

[Kross Rhodes]

I highly doubt anyone can point out a lie when someone is saying "these are scenarios I can see" and presents exact opposite ones while screaming "but I'm only speculating I don't know anything bc no one is talking"

I don’t know about any of the current rumors, but I do know that dirt sheets have made a lot of lies about things he demands that he was making in the past and wanting to get Colt fired and stupid shit like that. I was mainly reacting to Cock saying he wasn’t going to change and I don’t think you should have to change when it comes to calling out dudes lying on his name.

Meltzer is the only one that prints anything as fact that can be straight up refuted. People were saying Alvarez was shitting on AEW last week when he speculated that this announcement would only be about Collision and not any extra stuff yet when he literally screamed "I'm not reporting this, it's just a scenario I can imagine"

I mean he could just not talk about the rumors and talk about other stuff. I think he's a bit FOS here as he's directly profiting for those things. Sounds like he wants his cake and eat it too

But he's going to talk about what gets those clicks. Why would anyone blame him for that? It's what makes him money.

Probably but Punk is a name that people clamor to hear about. He's going to talk about him.

then tough shit? They want to be clickbait but then complain about being clickbait, it's a bit odd to me and seems pretty insincere. And I am a noted Meltzer defender a lot of the time

Do you know how much shit he'd get if he didn't mention Punk today at all? Lol not from Punk of course but how is that avoidable

Im not blaming him, im saying its insincere as fuck for him to act all sad about reporting it while counting his clicks lol

Lmao the colt stuff is so funny

Alvarez has said a million times he never heard it from anyone until fans started saying it to him and he's like "where the fuck did this come from"

But that's such a dead horse that will never die, clearly the Bucks leaked it

FWIW, I didn't say he was being completely sincere. He can feel that he likes the AEW product, but in his mind he's a journalist that needs to keep an unbias opinion and report on stuff that he might not like to report about.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

he is absolutely not a journalist though

I said in his mind he feels he is.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

he's a reporter and podcaster, big difference imo. Chris is right in that sense

 

[Chris]

he is absolutely not a journalist though

And never pretends to be, he has a radio show where he's supposed to talk about what's relevant in wrestling

 

[Canadian Dragon]

I said in his mind he feels he is.

I feel like I'm 6'5 but that doesn't make it true or reality

 

[Canadian Dragon]

I agree with you

Ok, at least we're on the same page.
