Bryan Danielson is a weird f***ing dude.
On the edge and Christian podcast he said him and Xavier Woods have a plot to harvest breast milk from women

I just reread that part, I was partially wrong about what he said but yeah, here's what he said word for word in the book: "It is my belief that due to modern medicine, humans have stopped evolving in a way that produces healthier adults. I say this because many children who two hundred years ago would have died are now living to successfully reproduce. They thus pass on their genetic deficiencies to their children, who then pass them on to their children, and so on and so forth. I am one of those children: sick my entire childhood and even still often sick as an adult. Without modern medicine, I would have surely passed before I could procreate. Who knows, I still might. Regardless, I affectionately refer to myself as a defect. Bri is also a defect. I will let her explain her own defectiveness in her own book, should she choose to write one. Before we started dating, I pointed this out to her, and also told her it would be genetically irresponsible of us to have children as it would weaken the evolution of humans going forward. What we should be doing as a species is breeding intelligent superathlettes, like having John Cena make babies with Jackie Joyner-Kersee. It became our little joke, both of us being defects. And we will, at some point, try our best with the de-evolution of our species." The last line's meaning skipped my notice because I was distracted with what he'd said before that, but yeah. Daniel Bryan subscribes to eugenics. What a delightfully horrible thing to read today. Yeah, I might just feel more than a bit nauseous after reading that.

Watching clips of Main Event for the points rankings... The colour variation of Mojo Rawley’s look in this match makes it look like he’s been fighting with condiments and not his inner psyche. Red and yellow scribble all over his face...

Summarize Jack Swagger's WWE career for me. I missed his entire run.

I wonder if twenty years from now people will be nostalgic for 2000s mid carders (like people are for late 80s and early 90s today) like Carlito, Mr Kennedy, MVP, Matt Morgan, Mark Jindrak, etc.

Like, he's a guy I wanna grab a tea with. He's all over the place intellectually and such a weird guy to boot. I remember he did an interview while doing the one chip challenge and no sold the thing, doing a cartwheel on the table just because, while the host is choking due to chip heat.

Who here did backyard wrestling?
I did, I was a heel. Finisher was a twist of fate but switched to a simple side slam as I enjoyed doing it. Also had a thrust to the throat and a combo of elbow drops I think.

For sure, his book is definitely not boring, I'm enjoying it, but there are a lot of moments where I sit back and go "wtf did I just read?!"

He talks about it being genetically irresponsible for them to have kids, then jokes about when they would de-evolve the species.

I do hope it's just dark humor, sure, but this is also the sort of thing a lot of people really do buy into.

I do hope it's just dark humor, sure, but this is also the sort of thing a lot of people really do buy into. People, definitely, yes, but I'm not sure Bryan is one of them. Keep in mind also the divided viewpoints on Brian Kendrick, where either he is a nutjob or just knows how to spin weird shit to get paid to do shoot promos.
