Paul Heyman never laughed at a dead body.

This is a sad day for old dudes with dusty old copies of the Observer in their attic who will pop a boner in their unwashed Adidas sweatpants at the chance of talking about the Dangerous Alliance.

When I look at your posts on my desktop (since that has signatures enabled), I just picture Doc Rivers deadass staring in disbelief at every ridiculous thread or post he comes across.

Well, I did say he got the benefit of the doubt because his worst moments were decades ago. Seems Paul E. has learned nothing and hasn't gotten any less awful with age. :/

Yeah, completely leaving any political considerations out of it, a man died HORRIBLY live on the Internet, and you're joking about it for a wrestling storyline. Have you lost your goddamn mind? Plus... wrestling is a well known work amongst adults, and children probably don't follow current events, so who in the absolute f*** is this edgelord shit trying to get heat with? At best, it's just Paul being stupid and edgy, and a man his age should know better. At worst... well, at worst it is what it appears to be on face value.

I really don't feel comfortable speaking about the subject itself but as a possible consequence, imagine if this is enough to get him pulled from TV and his last ever appearance is him trying to get 2 iPhones to kiss each other.
These TKO big wigs must be wondering what the hell kind of business they've gotten into.

They've owned UFC for long enough, they're used to a circus filled with people with horrible opinions and judgement.

is it too much to ask to have a couple of weeks in wrestling where nothing happens offscreen?
no one says something stupid, no big news of a scandal breaks, no mass releases of talent, nothing that triggers 500 pages of debates.

Just, how do you not know better? Paul Heyman is clearly very smart. I can’t imagine him thinking that this was a good idea. But here we are. Shouldn’t the situation he’s referencing, tell you just how sensitive this subject is? It should take less than a second to think better.

Paul Heyman is as much a "Controversy Creates Cash" disciple as Eric Bischoff, if not moreso. But some things, especially something like this, should just be off-limits for a cheap reaction. Leave that to Twitter edgelords.

Paul Heyman has had like 2 decades worth of some of the best public image rehabbing that anyone could ever ask for How to tank two decades worth of some of the best public image rehabbing anyone could ever ask for in a single social media post...

Yeah on the scale of "shit TKO has had to deal with" this is pretty damn low on the totem pole. Still terrible, but way less of a headache than Vince being a sexpest (on the WWE side of things) and a UFC fighter going on an incredibly homophobic rant and threatening to kill reporters at a presser.

It's always fun when a guy you already knew to be a piece of shit just goes and shows he's way worse than you already thought he was.

ECW often pushed the envelope/crossed the line (choose your own personal view there) so Heyman still being a controversy chasing dick shouldn't be too much of a surprise. I dread to think what his Twitter would have been like in the late 90s if the site had existed then.

Ever since 2020 it’s been all gas, no brakes. Just when you think it can’t get any crazier something even bigger happens. I shudder to think what’s coming next.

I wish stuff like this bothered me, but it just doesn’t. There are far, far worse things in this world than a tweet.
It’s not nice or called for, but I don’t expect that from someone like Heyman.

Ever since AEW started up shits hit the fan I'm gonna argue even before then I feel like it's been a slope since that Royal Rumble ending with Reigns... and shit's only gotten crazier since.
