That and Bischoff’s embarrassing stuff should get brought up whenever he decides to needlessly insert himself into things. Are we talking about his pot calling the kettle black moments, his role in tanking two different promotions, or the bigotry? Yes.

I propose a novel solution: let us never hear again from either Eric Bischoff or Tony Khan. Let's make everybody happy.

Nobody things it’s bad or even unprofessional Per say, it’s just incredibly goofy Nah, there are literally people out there who claim "I can't watch AEW, Tony Khan's twitter is cringe" or something to that effect. Granted, I think people who say stuff like that had no intention of watching AEW in the first place, so maybe it's a moot point. Either way, it's still twitter nonsense and not anything that seriously impacts anyone or any product in any kind of serious way, soooooooooo... In response to ur gif, a lot of ppl lol Here, x, whatever, which..credit to him? It’s getting attention. To him, Bischoff, Jinder, hook? If you can catch buzz from looking bad in yourself? Kudos? But it’s from the boss tweeting and not the product. I know he didn’t “start it”, but it struck a chord obviously. It means he was affected enough to respond aaand probably knowing how it’d go after the last time he lashed out on Twitter. He didn’t have to respond. It’s the same rhetoric literally some mods here have reiterated: “You don’t have to respond to the post”. I agree with it. You’re fueling it. We’re just posters; he’s a billionaire running his own promotion that he owns, pays for and books.

At least Tony stopped tweeting (Watch him make this age poorly lol), Bischoff is still out here taking L's at almost midnight The dude is sad, and the wrestling world has passed him by and he knows it. WWE won't hire him, he torched the bridge with AEW, and TNA grew a brain lmfao

We’re just posters; he’s a billionaire running his own promotion that he owns, pays for and books. It's still just twitter, and at this point Twitter is almost mindless bullshit Tony still gave everyone attention they basically could have used no matter the tribalism. Jinder got attention, HOOK got attention, WWE and AEW got attention. In the end that's what he wants to try and do It's not going to impact ratings or the overall state of the show one way or the other. Him making these tweets isn't going to change one thing about AEW or WWE this week, how the shows are booked, presented, etc. If it did it'd be an issue, but I don't think Tony Khan is doing the accused thing of "Not focusing enough on the product" when he does this stuff, the product in general has been getting more positive reception anyway since World's End, and at this point the perception of Khan on Twitter is what it is, and I don't see that actually impacting anything about the onscreen product. Same for WWE where I don't really see Seth vs Jinder's potential rating changing at all, just for one night, a lot of people pretended they've always loved Jinder, so that was very fun lol

WWE won't hire him, he torched the bridge with AEW, and TNA grew a brain lmfao I mean he’s almost 70 and from all accounts has a pretty sizable net worth. I doubt he’s that torn up about not being an executive in a wrestling company right now. He seemed to hate doing it again for WWE in 2018-2019.

You can say you doubt he's torn up about it, but the way the dude has acted since Tony Khan didn't give him a job in AEW? I'd say he's torn to f***ing shreds with how much he badmouths the company in crazy hyperbolic ways lmfao Dude comes off very much like he's wearing a smiling mask while raging behind it, like constantly.

Think he’s just drumming up engagement to promote his two podcasts. Controversy creates cash and all of that. I’d doubt he’s actually torn up about any of this at all. Probably just bored at home on a Tuesday night like the rest of us.

Maybe, but it's never come off that way to me, he's always sounded bitter, but obviously whether he is or not, AEW hate draws clicks so of course he'll do it.

And, of course, either of you could have simply said he’s Taz’s and wrestles for AEW. Would’ve required less effort than looking for a link and copying and pasting

Nobody things it’s bad or even unprofessional Per say, it’s just incredibly goofy If I had the power to make one rule on this here forum it would be stop constantly bringing up other places and their dumb opinions. I swear this happens all the time. People call something dumb/funny. Others say it's ridiculous how people are taking this so seriously. When it's asked who are the people saying this is a huge story rather than just a dumb tweet the answer is invariably oh it doesn't happen much here but somewhere else online it's happening. And I've never understood how you can't just go confront those people on whatever platform they're on rather than constantly bringing their crap here. Or even better just ignore them. I don't consider myself a particularly social media savvy person so if I'm able to curate my stuff so that I don't see any of the dumbest takes it really can't be that difficult. The amount of people though who go on and on about what they've seen on Twitter or Reddit though and it's just like at a point you're choosing to read that stuff. It's easy to avoid if you really want to. I want to like this 20 times. Someone says something is silly and mildly criticises TK, Wwe, current Bishoff, s8 of GoT, Vince in the 90s, Hausman, Billy Pumpkins, Inoki, hoodslam, Cm Punk, the awa, kpop idol culture, Bret Hart, The Rock, Big Daddy, Kizarny, 1920s Hollywood, Meltzer, El Santo, the Denver Broncos and The great power uti. Then after laughing at multiple people and companies someone else then says it's all Tribalism. The only real Tribalism is colliders vs rammers.

Mikey Whipwreck was pretty over as well. Both of those told stories and integrated their losing records into it. Jinder won a 6 way and they said “Jobber? Pfft, Jinder was always worthy of a world title shot.” They basically lied to their audience instead of telling a better story.

I think they should of had Jinder with a US or IC title run beforehand or atleast the Andre, where he was runner up
