I missed where we departed to talk about Nia, but regarding Keith I get where Dave is coming from, it's just not really any of his business to say it. Dave got into a bit of trouble for comments about Billie Kay/Jessica McKay which from my understanding people misunderstood his intent. People say stupid shit and others with either malice or not malice misinterpret that.

As I said earlier, wrestling is a visual medium, so yes, it absolutely is Dave's business. As was the business with Kay or Peyton Royce or whoever it was.

Okay, it's a visual medium; so why isn't his look an acceptable visual?

As long as his weight isn't hampering his ability in the ring, I've got no issue in how big he is. If anything, that helps him stand out more, a super heavyweight that can pull off moves that someone of his look and size usually shouldn't be able to pull off.

Okay, it's a visual medium; so why isn't his look an acceptable visual? I think it's accepted by the vast majority of people to be fair. I also think people are well within their right to discuss it since as you say this is a visual medium. Some people here seem to disagree that a person's look should be a topic of conversation at all though which is odd to me. We discussed how different Moxley looked in his return and listed reasons on why that would be as well. We discuss how Shane looks blown up running to the ring. Keith Lee still looks badass to me but my concerns are more with his ability to look badass long into a match and him being able to be healthy while doing so. I don't think people are out of line to be concerned when someone has a health scare and comes back looking heavier than they left. Going from being concerned to being antagonistic about it is not ok, but I don't think the majority of people here have crossed that line. Obviously we know why and it's not like it's his fault, but it is his "problem" to either fix or be ok with.

Can't believe this thread contains the one person who thought actually Meltzer should have talked about the Iiconics' boob jobs.

I can’t believe that Meltzer thought it was a good idea to use her weight as a euphemism for talking about a boob job It would have been so easy to be like 'Peyton was off for a while, she needs to shake off the rust and get used to things again' and that would've been the complete sentiment without.

I can't believe we're 6 pages into the thread and the title hasn't been changed to reflect it was Alvarez and not Meltzer who made the weight comment. Dave says a lot of stupid shit but he's catching Ls for something he didn't say.

Dude what is in the water on the AEW Board today? Lmfao, these threads have gotten nuts... Seriously dude. Between this and the other thread where it's six pages of grown adults sobbing over a line that someone said in a pre-taped promo... sheesh. Its getting difficult to log in in here and try to interact with people. It’s a message board about a niche interest. People are here to discuss big picture things and the minutiae as well. No reason to bash posters.

No reason to bash posters. In at least this threads instance, the poster in question seemed perfectly fine with bashing heavy wrestlers and for absolutely no reason The IIconics, so... I don't think they exactly helped matters.

I didn't "bash" Peyton Royce. I said it was fair game for discussion, which it was. Positive or negative.

Okay, I seriously didn't even recognize that guy until I was told. If somehow I'm being compared to a raging anti-Semite because I have a take that people here disagree with, then you're kindly invited to go f*** yourself. If that's not the point of the pic...well, I use words to communicate, not pictures and memes, so maybe you should try that instead.
Edit: Seriously, I was done with this thread and topic of discussion, but now I'll gladly "die on this hill" unless I can figure out or be informed just what in the hell you're trying to say.

"I said it was fair game for discussion" = The "I'm just asking questions" defense. That poster is using the same tactics conspiracy theorists use when called out on insensitive comments with no real basis in reality, like the triple-downing and quadruple-downing on fatphobia in this thread by slightly changing the wording with each response.
