Dominos are overreacting but I get their unhappiness and reluctance for a repeat if you sell food you don't want it associated with blood or any other bodily fluids. As for Pabst Blue Ribbon: hush brand. Dominos: more worried about being associated with blood than being associated with good pizza

That article is some sloppy, sloppy work, and the sensationalism of "THEY DISAVOW IT AND MIGHT STOP RUNNING ADS" when they reached out for comment and got an empty PR response is some real hilarity. But I trust this website with a top-of-page banner ad telling me to take their home-grown course to give me athlete marketing certification to let me become an agent for college athletes. I have the utmost trust in all of this. That's the best part. Domino's didn't even release the statement on its own accord. They responded when asked for comment with the most milquetoast possible corporate response, and now here we are. It's the journalistic equivalent of mixing snitch tagging with "OH MOM SAYS YOU'RE IN TROUBLE NOW". It's really sad and desperate clickbait.

It's just such a microcosm of society at large that Domino's issued a completely unremarkable statement in response to a journalistic inquiry, merely saying "yeah, our brand wasn't associated with that, we will certainly evaluate what happened" and that has transformed into "DOMINO'S IS CONSIDERING PULLING ITS SPONSORSHIP FROM DYNAMITE!!!!!!!!!"

In the Swerve of Swerves, I kinda want Nick Gage getting a deal to promote Domino's Pizza with MDK: (Fresh)Mozzarella, Deep Dish & Krispy Crust.

Well a Dominos add popped up on my Facebook feed for the first time ever, so the algorithms are doing their thing.
Every fourth or fifth comment is something about AEW or a gif of Nick Gage.

I love how all these goofball articles are posturing this as AEW having deliberately cut to a Domino’s commercial after the spot, as if the company has any control over when ads air. Turner aired the ad. Turner also approved the match airing in the first place. I know a certain tennis enthusiast and his lackeys are having a field day with this, but it’s really a non-starter. If Dynamite continues its strong demographic ratings, Domino’s will be there with bells on advertising their shitty pizza. If not, more marketing-savvy companies like Wendy’s (or, yes, even PBR) will more than make up the slack. Domino's having an ad on that spot was scheduled by TNT's advertising department which probably had no idea what was even going to be airing on AEW at that time. AEW just did its thing only knowing when the commercial breaks were coming, not what ads were airing at what time.
It's one of the funniest wrestling-related coincidences ever.

Domino's should be using this to their advantage. "See, pizza Cuttery are dangerous tools, keep them out of your home and let three professionals at Domino's make a pizza safely for you. After all, you wouldn't want Suzie or Billy ending up like them *picture off Gage and Jericho* would you?"

I'm pretty sure there's plenty of pizza restaurants that would want that ad space instead of Domino's and their shitty pizza. Unless it's Little Caesar's, whose pizza is about as bad as Domino's. Man, Little Caesars is great pizza! Little Caesars is where pizza goes to die

In a grim example, it reminds me of this pretty bad coincidence from the UK’s Channel 5 a good few years ago. Like, I can believe there was no malice with it, sometimes these scheduled stuff happens. Strangely, the man carving another man with a pizza cutter was more joyful.

Gage is gonna bloody up a dude in a Noid costume at the next GCW show. He needs to start referring to Cardona as the Noid. In his own poetic way.

Little Caesars is where pizza goes to die It’s the only place I’ll order pizza from. By value it is hard to beat, and there is just something about the crazy bread and sauce. But my go-to is Marcos because they have a “pizza bowl” for my low-carb eating wife.
