  • Rhea Ripley is 100x the attraction of a Steve Williams

    You two simply have no respect for women so why would you ever give her credit?

    I didn’t watch for years and the only reason I watched again was Rhea Ripley. She’s a bigger attraction than anyone in AEW and more than 95% of the top men’s wrestlers.

    But again, why would YOU TWO ever give a woman credit for anything?

  • Just can’t support him anymore

    After DVons comments about JR coupled with all the other backstage gossip and innuendo which only proves to me is true when you piece it all together with the stories JR has said himself, I no longer respect or care to remember him. The show itself can be good but too many ads ruin it as well as Jim’s way of twisting reality at times to make some point we all know is false. You got go away heat Jim now go away and focus on your health you workaholic.
