Was thinking the other day, WWE needs an actual building for their Hall of Fame.
I like AEW, but All Petite Wrestling might be the funniest name you could give them. Great job, Rob Van Dam.
Remember when people gave a fuck that WWE was in bed with the Saudis? Me neither.
I don't get it at all either. All that happened and folks are outraged, but not outraged enough to stop watching and participating in the LDs here. It's crazy.
Because most of us are full of shit, just like most other people everywhere when you get right down to it.
Personally, I don't give WWE crap for doing business with Saudi Arabia because I, like damn near everyone else in America, use the products of a lot of mega companies that also do business with SA, some of which have been doing it for decades. Taco Bell, McDonalds, KFC, Pepsi, Coca-Cola, Kool-Aid, IBM, Microsoft, Apple, IBM, Ford, General Motors, etc. and other mega corporations do business with and make money working with Saudi Arabia. It'd be hypocritical of me to slam WWE for doing it while drinking a Pepsi or Mountain Dew while chowing down on a bucket of KFC. It's really easy to be a keyboard activist when you don't have to put your money where your mouth is and, let's face it, it's highly doubtful any of the wrestling fans or insiders who piss all over WWE over all this are gonna give up their junk food, iPhones or stop driving their cars due to them running on gasoline made from oil that mostly comes from places like Saudi Arabia. If someone does, then kudos, more power to you. I'm not a crusader trying to change the world, I'm just trying to get by in it.
I have no illusions about Saudi Arabia, I have no respect for the Saudi government or the oppressive theocracy that's used to govern the Middle East in general but I'm also enough of a realist to know that there's nothing I can possibly do about it. This thing with WWE isn't gonna usher in some Pollyanna period of happiness and progressive policy in Saudi Arabia where women are treated on a more equal footing and where government corruption doesn't go down. It's a shitty world, generally speaking, it probably always will be because we as a species keep repeating the same old mistakes century after century. WWE doing business with Saudia Arabia isn't the problem, it's humanity at large that's the actual problem and there's no real way around it

I just find it funny that people can be so "outraged" about something (not talking about posters here specifically, more wider society), talk about it like it's the worst thing in the world, and then literally not care about the issue like, a month later. This is why real change is such a struggle nowadays. Most people don't actually care about social issues. They act like they do, but they don't.
Also, RTC is such an underrated faction.
