Vince's line felt tasteless and gross but it's Vince's catchphrase. Still felt gross to me. Not offended but rolled my eyes when I heard it. :draper2

One of the dudes fucking catchphrases for the longest time has been YOUUUUUUUUUUURE FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRED which became iconic.

wHy SiGn FoR WWE aNd GeT cUt OnE mOnTh LaTeR. :fpalm

I mean you say this like people haven't signed and been cut within a few months of being signed so not sure what your point there is. :draper2 Hell Becky's current feud had one of the dumbest scripted lines I've ever heard: "Becky's contract is why my friends were fired". Might one of the dumbest lines said by any face in kayfabe ever.

I just don't see it lol was a forced line that sucked but I didn't think it was a big thing when Liv did that either. I must be in that WWE simp mode

Will go back to being AEW simp when I talk to those haters I guess tho

Oh I don't hate Liv for the line lmao. I just thought it was a fucking dumb line that made no sense. It made Liv's character look like a fucking idiot. Wasn't offensive just a really dumb line.

Thats what I don't get lol I think in non kayfabe terms there's a good argument for it being tasteless to throw the line in. But in kayfabe terms, wouldn't Liv be mad that big money Becky was making so much money while her friends got budget cutted?

Why blame Becky? It's not her fault in the slightest lol. Who makes the call to fire people? Not Becky unless in kayfabe WWE is broke you can have her friends be hired and Becky on a big contract. If Liv is mad about her friends being fired, go argue with Vince. This was like AJ in real life blaming Heyman. Nah Vince made the final call. Blame the person in charge.

Cause I think Becky was bragging about how much money she was making bc she's the heel so it was relevant lol if not then I'll agree tho sure bc even in kayfabe it's not necessarily directed at the right person

WWE bad tho, I don't disagree overall. I'm just not on this level yet I guess lol

This article only says they had a 300-person workforce that they "reduced". Unless I'm missing something, doesn't say they let go of that many people.

Either way, I think people make too much fuss about being fired "during the holidays". Especially when you're talking about rich people to begin with. :lol But regardless I'd rather be fired on November 8 than January 1, personally.

Like I consider deezy posting that news article from wherever he gets his AEW hate news the same as someone who doesn't watch Raw seeing that Vince line posted and talking about it later lol just trying to "gotcha" The other side

i think i may have called you a simp like once in the last 6 months at most, you know I always respect your opinion on this matter. I get its banter tho lel, just felt you were perhaps derailing/actually annoyed. carry on

But her making bank has 0 to do with Liv's friends being fired at all cause that implies WWE are broke or Becky is making $100 million a year in kayfabe lol. I just think the line makes 0 sense in context. It's not a WWE EVIL thing, it's who wrote that and thought that made Liv sound remotely likeable.
