Owens is such a smartass, it's impossible for him not come off like the babyface in exchanges like this.

I guess this is the "reality era"?

All I'm getting from this is that Alex Riley has 518,000 Twitter followers

In situations like this, I find myself rooting against Riley.
And by "situations like this", I mean any situation involving Riley.

Owens has been demolishing Riley on Twitter since their first encounter before their match. He has literally been killing him for 2 months. Riley keeps trying to come at Owens, but you can tell he just doesn't have the wit to keep up. I would liken it to the 50 Cent/Ja Rule of Twitter beef. Just a one sided lashing.

Considering my severe dislike of snark, I'll ultimately find myself not caring about either of them. I like snark/shade/smartassdom in all forms, but I hate that Riley is coming off as a delusional jackass. I do believe that as a wrestler onscreen, Riley does his best work when he's punching above his weight, but Owens just outclasses him in every way that this whole exchange looks pathetic. I was enjoying this feud when it started, but ever since they had their actual match and Riley got completely crushed, it stopped being fun. They had their chance to make Riley look at least half as good as Owens, but they blew it when Riley lost decisively and got his ass handed to him by Owens. Its like the company is trying to "salvage" Riley by writing off his ass whooping as a minor setback, and painting him a guy who shakes off adversity, but completely failing at it because he just looks like an unlikable asswipe I just want this to be over. Let Riley redeem himself with someone else and give Owens a new punching bag to beat on...for his family of course.

Maybe they are continuing the feud or something.

Owens won me over when he kept responding to Twitter questions with the GIF of him kicking Riley en route to going to the back.

No wrestlers should feud on Twitter. It makes them look like bitchy girls.

Every time I see a Twitter fight. I always picture Cartman saying "TWITTER FIGHT" instead of Cripple Fight.

Maybe they are continuing the feud or something. Then they shouldn't have booked the first match the way they did, and they should've let Riley do more to endear himself to the fans, but he hasn't made any appearances (including live events) since that match except for WrestleMania. Working with an elite talent like Owens should be elevating Riley, getting him over and showing that hey, maybe he's as good as these guys , but instead all they've done is create another "controversial" face, but on a smaller scale. Riley deserved better than that, even if he is a dumb f***.

[I like snark/shade/smartassdom in all forms I might actually want you to explain this one to me. I get that snark is such a huge thing, but what I DON'T get is what's appealing to people about dismissive, sneering, self-indulgent sarcasm.

Slightly off topic. Has a kayfabe threat on social media ever been flagged?
