In the end this is free publicity for Jinder and for HOOK for both of their title matches
One side can say the other is buried, say what they want about the other company online, fact is Jinder and HOOK are now the talk of the town regardless of what people think, and everyone on social media is turning this into a benefit to themselves and viral posts
So hey regardless of what people think and if Tony should have made the tweet, it seems like everyone involved is making out with what they want, which is that sweet sweet clout lol

Hook and Jinder both win. That's the best part hopefully.

It looks like Khan’s first post wasn’t the reply to USA, it was the separate post made comparing Hook and Jinder. His comparison wasn't wrong and it does make me wish WWE built up their challengers in a meaningful way, even if it was like winning matches on Main Event or something, even NXT. Just something other then how Jinder was presented before getting this shot. His comparison was absolutely wrong because Jinder isn't a serious challenger. That's kinda the point. He's being portrayed as a delusional heel that believes his own unearned hype. He's acting like his segment with The Rock was not only about him, but the numbers it got were also about him and prove that he's a superstar deserving of having his title back. He's not got a match with Seth because he deserves one. He's not supposed to be thought of as a credible, so the comparison is a stupid one. It's a heel getting a title shot because Seth is a 'fighting champion' and Jinder annoyed him enough to earn an ass kicking. I agree that meaningful challengers should get built up. But let's not act like Jinder is being booked as anything other than a filler defense. At most he'll make Seth 'work for it' and look like he could win so that he has some credibility in the midcard.

Yeah but the fact he's being built as a filler defense also just kinda doesn't do it for me? Like Jinder as a whole isn't interesting to me and Seth's title reign has sucked for awhile now, but that's just my thoughts on it.

But how many tickets were sold versus how many people were actually in attendance for Mahal In 2024, live from Wembley Stadium, Sunday, August 25, live on Premium Live Event?

I think you’re getting worked up over nothing bro. Tony’s gotta take it if he’s gonna dish it. A lot of us are just having fun because it’s Jinder that’s got him steamed. And on another post, call me out for possibly living under a rock, but I don’t remember WWE ever takeing shots besides “Pissant company” and “secondary company” with the later not even being malicious imo. AEW from my vantage point has done it more. This is Tony being immature and I’d say the same thing if HHH was doing it too. Just tread carefully, you’ve seemed to take the effort to not let differences in fandom lead to trouble here since your return. Maybe you should leave the moderation to the actual mods. Fair enough, just wanted to nicely point out the tribalism escalating.

If that's coming from me then idk what to tell you, there's no tribalism on my end, I'm pointing out online tribalism coming from other social medias, and I never mentioned FAN I watch both products and I always have, I think everyone looks dumb in this situation but it's free publicity for Jinder and HOOK and that'll be a net win for those guys.

I wish Tony was good at bants, like it’s never crazy funny jokes it’s just him going “well acktualy 🤓” about something
Like photoshop Jinder’s head on Kenny Omega’s body or something

By the way, if anyone needs any X scrolling music, I highly recommend reading Jinder shitposts to his absolutely fire theme.

I like Tony and all, but this shit is just cringy. He's a terrible public face/voice for the company sometimes. In fairness, the corporate Twitter account for USA Network taking the Cagematch jab in the first place was equally, if not more, cringy. I'm cringing so hard I might rupture a disc in my back at the whole exchange. That was hilarious. Tony reacting the way he has has made it even more funny.

“You are far too online Tony Khan, it would be much better for you to step aside and not comment on this stuff” -people on a dedicated wrestling message board that already have two threads across the WWE and AEW sections about this tweet To be fair, I don't think any of us are executives and made ourselves the public face of 3 or 4 different sports franchises
