All this talk about taking a break and what topics/viewpoints are valid for discussion actually made me realize I need a nice long break from here. So something positive did come from Tony’s tweets! See you whenever, FAN. Same. This week has been a blitz of stuff I'm super uncomfortable with.

See you whenever, FAN. Enjoy it. I loved my time away when I deleted my old account. Now I see things through different lenses and it's a better experience.

I'm not a doctor, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night

Well, then the thread should probably be shut down... I think it's assumed that no one here (at least publically) is a doctor and nothing being said is medical advice. We are discussing what TK is doing on Twitter and how it doesn't look good. If we can't do that... shut the thread down. We can actively do that without discussing his mental health state You can actively say the tweets are dumb, or he needs to log off, etc, without trying to psychoanalyze if he's in need of therapy or mentally unwell Not all discussion of Tony Khan has to boil down to "He needs psychiatric help" nor does all discussion end if you don't say that within it. I guess I don't always equate "needing help" to needing to psychiatrist. I'm sure someone on this thread has said specifically "psychiatric help", but I haven't seen it. I think he needs help with his social media and this past week has confirmed it in my non-PHD mind. I think he should step away from social media a few days, other than maybe a tweet promoting the upcoming show, which he does VERY well. Let all of this blow over. As others have said, I think he should hire a social media team. He can still provide what he wants them to promote (in his words) but other than that, social media is something he can easily take off his plate. Just my opinion.

Yeah that seems to be the gist of it from my perspective as well. He just simply needs assistance and guidance in a variety of ways. Guy may be more of a control freak then we give him credit for just by the sheer amount of insanity he willingly takes on at all times... Just one of these fanbases for one of these sports alone would be enough to send me over the edge (short trip i know) so I can't fathom trying to juggle all 3 and keep all those fanbases happy too... I admire the never quit attitude but if a guy like Floyd Mayweather went in swinging every time he wouldn't be undefeated after 50+ wins either

Not sure I want to attend Smackdown but if they stack that deck again I will lol Hoping GCW comes back next year as well (The Rock and Roll Express Tribute show and the Red Means Green show with Billy Roc was awesome)

I really hope TK has the good sense to not even try and compete with that SmackDown because, like, the show's going to be eaten alive no matter what they do, it's network vs. cable. Just focus on putting on a good show and brace for the L.

Someone seriously needs to take his phone away from him. This is not healthy for him.

Seems pointless to have a ratings battle between Smackdown and Collision when LVL Up will be beating both.

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. For a dude that seems like he’d post on the Something Awful forums or /b/ or literally any message board in the 2000s he is f***ing awful about not feeding the trolls. That was literally rule 3 after NO CAP LOCKS or beware anyone with a Gir from Invader Zim avatar

Then this is a miscommunication then. Because I've always seen "getting help" used as a euphemism for "they have a serious problem and need intervention from a professional." If that's not your meaning, then we're good.

He will then live stream himself snorting coke off of Punks corpse just to make up for it.

This is not a difficult thing to understand. Despite some people putting Tony on a pedestal…he’s still in the group most likely to be thin skinned, overly dramatic and overly sensitive to any perceived slight. He’s a rich, successful businessman. No matter how good you think this particular billionaire is compared to another one…almost all of them have the exact same fundamental flaw. Why does Musk lose his shit on a daily basis? Same reason Tony tweets like a petulant child. Success to them isn’t solely about money and power. It’s about respect that can’t be bought. There is nothing that a rich man desires more than complete approval. Whenever they get the opposite they lose their freaking minds. It’s the only thing they don’t have control over. Psychologically…the desire to be universally respected is more important to them than the money. Because they have the money. They are incapable of imagining life without it or understanding life without it. But praise and admiration? That’s what they value.

During the All Out 2021 media scrum Tony Khan talked about Ric Flair and how much he meant to him as his email was TonyFlair for a long time. He no longer uses this is why it was made public I am assuming by him. I omitted the domain. People have used that to kind of timeline a few things. This in essence means nothing but it also shows he's always traveled in the very vocal packs
