If you had WWE Troll accounts bombarding you every day to the point you couldn't talk about your Mother's near death experience without them trying to make it about competition, yeah, I'd be pissed too He didn't say he hated WWE fans, he hated the exact type of people we ALL hate here, the people who have no f***ing life and actively try and get his show cancelled through petty bullshit This isn't about the ratings in the moment, when he's actively trying to move on they attack a very personal post of his and it's f***ed up. If HHH or Shawn tweeted about their parents and AEW Stan Trolls did the same shit, it'd be just as uncalled for Tribalism is dogshit and it actively hurts either product when it goes too far. At that point he should just get off social media, getting off social media does wonders, the way he's acting is only gonna encourage the trolls to do it even more

I mean the tweet about his mum could have been just that, instead of throwing potentially libellous accusations at WWE in with it, that said the tribalism needs to end, we are living in a new golden age where we have wrestling on a nightly basis from 6 different main companies in addition to another 3 indies vying for a slice of the pie in OVW, GCW and MLW Taking out them latter 3 this is what we get Monday - WWE Raw Tuesday - WWE NXT, NWA Powerr Wednesday - AEW Dynamite Thursday - ROH, NJPW, Impact Wrestling Friday - WWE Smackdown, AEW Rampage, occasional ROH/Impact/NWA PPV/Specials Saturday - AEW Collision, WWE and occasional AEW PPVs, NWA USA Sunday - AEW and occasional Impact PPVs

What’s wrong, babe? You’ve barely psychoanalyzed Tony Kahn today.

When TK, the social media savvy 41 year old businessman, willingly brings up what his mom went through after all of what he's said these past few days fully knowing how people are...nah I'm not going to say we are being too hard on him. He's either doing too much and needs to put down his phone or too stupid to realize that this will feed the trolls and have them insult his mom. I'm saying he ain't dumb, he's just doing too much. f*** the trolls and the assholes first and foremost but I'm not gonna act like he's absolved of everything. You're not dumb and you know how this works. Don't. Feed. The. Trolls. He should let someone else run his social media for him. You can’t be letting the losers on Twitter know that they’re getting to you. In their warped minds they’ll take that as a win and try harder to get more of your attention. John Cena had probably 15 years of death threats on a daily basis. Roman Reigns regularly has people wishing his cancer came back. Triple H has people hoping that his heart fails. The Elite have Cornette fans trashing them all the time and in particular Kenny basically gets accused of being a paedophile. When Cody was in AEW WWE fans would be in his comments saying he sucks. When he’s in WWE he has AEW fans calling him a traitor. Look at some of the horrific comments Nyla Rose gets. Look at some of the racist comments under Jade’s tweets in the past few weeks. Look under the comments of any female wrestler actually and you wont have to scroll far to see something creepy. You could go on and on. In an ideal world you shouldn’t have to ignore the comments or have someone else tweet for you. But the reality is Twitter doesn’t give a shit and is horrible at removing offensive stuff. There’s a reason most really big names just use Twitter for generic marketing stuff and don’t actually engage with people personally. If they read all the hate they get every day it could drive you crazy.

I think Khan should get off social media. I also think virtually everyone with any degree of fame or notoriety should get off social media because social media is a cesspool full of trolls and 95% of the world population would not be able to cope with the vitrol they get aimed at them.
And that's it. Guy makes stupid tweets and has the worst people come at him. Must be a day ending in Y.

As I said yesterday, there's a reason why people who have Tony's level of exposure and responsibility pay other people to run their social media.
Social media has the potential to be an amazing thing but it also allows the very worst of society to hide in plain sight.
Use it as a tool to promote, hire someone to tweet about AEW, Fulham and the Jags for you and then immediately delete the app off your phone and forget it ever existed.

The type of person who takes pleasure in being a social media troll is delusional. When a famous person actually engages with them, it just vindicates their delusions and makes them feel like they're accomplishing something. As difficult as it may be for TK, the best thing that he could possibly do would be to just use social media to advertise his show and not engage with the trolls.

Bringing in his mothers illness to take shots at WWE and its fans. He's really taking this ratings loss that wasn't even that bad hard. Someone needed to take this man's phone away days ago lmao Megha is probably looking for him right now, just to take away his phone before he says something that will actually land them in hot water legally. Tony is literally the dril tweet right now about logging off. There is that also. He’s the CEO of a major wrestling company so he needs to be judicious in what he tweets. The first part of his tweet was nice and any decent person would understand the sentiment behind it and hope his mother has many more years of good health after what sounds like a very serious and scary situation. That was a nice sentence. The part about wwe, even though I think it’s not relevant a year on, I don’t see why he needed to include it in one tweet.

Said it before. Tony just needs to log off social media right now. He is basically that one dril tweet about logging off.
Also Tony having this much of a meltdown isn't shocking for anyone who has followed him in other sports as he is widely seen as a joke there because he constantly gets into social media slapfights with fans and players.

Twitter is one of the worst things the internet has created, It is a dumpster filled with the worst kind of people, sure these people have always existed, but on twitter they have a voice, and it only gets worse every day
This guy can't handle criticism and losing, that and trolls is a very bad combination, he doesn't know one of the biggest rules of the internet, Don't feed the trolls, and right now he's giving them an all you can eat buffet, someone there has to tell him to log off

People are stating that he is also contacting people via DM as well. This needs to end.
The person in question here is followed by AEW, Cena, Jericho and more and is local to the setup in Jacksonville.

I guess two things can be true in this situation
- The people attacking Tony Khan's Mother or making it personal are scumbags, bringing up WWE contracts or not you don't need to attack a dude's Mom, soft spot for me I guess, I love my Mom and I get it lol
- Tony should just go quiet for a bit outside of just promoting the show, this doesn't sound like it's fun for him right now and it went from being trolly and harmless to all sides just pushing it too far to the point it needs to stop and everyone needs to move on to something else
Also people need to stop psychoanalyzing a man they know nothing about and read through a limited scope. Yes he needs to log off, yeah he seems like he could be stressed, but people saying he needs therapy or this or that, like... we don't know that, we could speak from experience or try and read patterns but it's very uncomfortable I guess just from my perspective that people are leaping to what Tony Khan needs to do outside of the obvious which is just put the phone down for a bit
Which is also why "Kha loses it" in the OP still bugs me, at most the tweets are dumb or shouldn't have been sent, the dude didn't "lose it" and go on some unhinged rant imo.

If not, it's probably only a matter of time.

Travis didn't need to show this DM public to make things worse either, he could have simply expressed why he didn't like the segment and quote tweeted TMZ, which the initial response did
Khan isn't mocking him here, not that I can see, and if he reached out because he's local (On the Duvall Board) it makes sense, I wouldn't have, because people especially on that platform are ruthless and he's learning that the hard way (And yes that's largely his fault)
I would agree signal boosting TMZ isn't doing much good btw because like... f*** that outlet, but if Khan's going to message you, you could also be the bigger person, and that does not come off that way here.

I think he's really tried to let MJF handle it so far, which I haven't really thought MJF handled it poorly But maybe this'll force him to make a statement or shift things around. Unfortunately if you DM someone nothing is stopping them from screencapping it as a gotcha even if you think the person might be normal... best to just nor engage at all tbh

So it causes enough of a stir hes aware of it, but he and aew make no public statement about it, instead he dm’s peeps with “I don’t think quote tweeting TMZ is doing much good” Bro. WTF?? Lol Creepy and weird as all f***. i haven’t been entirely onboard with the “he needs help” thing, but he b makin a hell of a case for it

People that are mocking or making light of his mom’s illness are scum. But the one “making it about competition” was Khan himself, as he wrote about his mom and then immediately went into WWE contract tampering in the next sentence. I'll concede that, though even then people turning it directly into insulting his Mom or that situation are just scumbags who I have zero time for Khan should just take a break from social media at this point, schedule dynamite tweets and just dont give them another opportunity to jump you.
