I'm with Eddie. That's the very reason I mind my own business and don't bother with social media.

I get the impression the "award" is for individuals rather than groups but they did mention "certain message boards" that their candidates frequent so who knows? They are going to give this "award" out apparently (at least) once every month to a random fan. Either way, this is a pathetically laughable case of punching down by a guy who claims he doesn't care what other people say. So his way of proving he didn't send his fanbase out to bully a wrestler is to /check notes/ name check a regular fan for his fanbase to bully instead? A+ idea, Jim. The situation reminds me of an exchange between Shredder and Krang from the old TMNT cartoon - Shredder *after Krang is accused by an alien princess of stealing her weaponized power ring which he vehemently denies*: "So, you didn't steal her ring?" Krang *takes out the stolen ring from a compartment of his android body*: "Of course, I stole it! I just don't like being accused of having stolen it."

We came so close to Santino f***ing him up and he ran away like a little bitch. Pretty sure he acted tough about it later on lmao If I recall, Cornette actually tried to make himself into the victim when Santino confronted him. He said in essence that he wasn't going to fight Santino because it's beneath him or something. Santino telling the story is funny because he tried to shake Cornette's hand and say no hard feelings over the OVW incident and Cornette immediately went into promo mode thinking that Santino would not start stuff, and he immediately tried to get security when Santino said that's not how it's going to go. Like I've said it before (ironically in these forums) if you don't like something that's cool, but the level of venom Cornette has for some things in modern wrestling I will never understand.

"I did not send my fanbase to bully and harass people... now excuse me as I make a monthly event where I send my fanbase to harass and bully people" F*** this dude and the toxicity he willingly creates for the wrestling community. It'd be a much calmer place if him and his show would just f*** off from the public eye, forever.

The energy of a man going "Don't make this about me" while pulling off stacked layers of t-shirts he's wearing that all say "This is about me".

Yup, talk about going off the deep end. Camp Cornette thinks they're exposing what they see as the worst of the worst, but in actuality, they're embarrassing themselves.

And the sad part about this, it's become pro wrestling's version of a culture war. As if the tribalism within wrestling fandom isn't bad enough.

Man it's such a tough side to choose... support the racist bigot asshole who attempts to ruin and slander peoples lives and sends his cult after them... or simply continue to exist and NOT be that The fact it actually seems like a tough choice for some people in this fandom is downright embarrassing. It's a wonder I don't interact with people outside of my circles and here about wrestling these days.

Don't get me wrong, I love to discuss all things wrestling as much as the next person, but the toxicity is too much of a turn off for me to even want to engage in discussing it outside of my own circle and here on FAN.

It's a wonder I don't interact with people outside of my circles and here about wrestling these days. Indeed, I haven't been this embarrassed to be a Pro Wrestling fan since back in the early 2010s when I took a few normie friends to a local event and another hardcore fan loudly proclaimed Beniot was "the best wrestler ever, too bad he killed his wife and son but damn he had a mean headbutt." I kid you not the guy literally said it that way. I wished I could have crawled into a hole and disappeared.

Every fandom seems to have its own version of this, and it's so embarrassing and tiresome to see how it reduces so much discussion of the subject to a "you like this? That's stupid and you're stupid!" 10 year old level.

https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp9BWj0uOjH when she first came out with the pipe I can imagine corny was walking somewhere and felt a sudden jolt in his knee he couldn't explain. Also, I think she should come out with a baseball bat, since it would kind of fit her hands better. A pink one, because that's the color her opponents will see before lights out.

It's funny that Eddie is such a cool guy considering he always carries himself like he's 5 minutes away from turning back into that picture of him with the gas can.

Corny's codependent enabler has now stated on Twitter that maybe Riho is under stress because her home life is bad and that (paraphrasing) "Kenny might not let her leave the house when she isn't working". This is the real reason she left Social Media not harassment from cultists and other online trolls. Reading this I was like WTH!? They won't let the Riho only has her AEW position because she's Kenny's special friend garbage go, sick and twisted.
