I like him even candidly saying he hated the interview too tbh and he's not lying that he said the same about Sasha before lol it's just the twitter rant after that I thought was over the top as fuck even if I found it hilarious
Probably was his first real interaction from rasslin neckbeards.

Not like they're any worse than Conor and Fedor fans lol.

I think being called a WWE shill set him off tbh

Atleast they weren't calling him a "nuthugger" like the MMArks liked to do lol.

So....I guess we can say that about our weirdos.

in fact, I'm going to assume he was just having a bad day because he's had worse interactions online im sure during his tumultuous love hate relationship with Dana White and his nuthuggers

A good rule of thumb is never ever devote more than one tweet to people with less than 1k followers

I'm not gonna judge him too harshly but yeah if you're going to attempt to take the high road, probably don't lump an entire fandom with twitter trolls lol, dilutes the argument instantly

Just reading the transcript from the OP again too and lol
When asked if he watches WWE, he said, "I watch a lot of wrestling from different places. All wrestling is competition."

Tony coulda at least just said yes here :lol most of the other questions I kinda get tho, tbh he coulda broke the Saraya being cleared news here but only if it was okay with her. Think the usual dirt sheets just reported it anyway and her getting physical that first time was more expected than anything by that point

wonder if TK is feeling a lil cagey still when it comes to WWE with all the recent allegations of tampering and andrade etc

Definitely, I just don't think saying yeah I watch the product wouldn't mean anything since everyone should already know he does. Unless he didn't care to answer any follow up questions and that's why he avoided it
