The time the AEW crowd started chanting “We The People!”—the signature catchphrase of Jake Hager, who previously worked as Jack Swagger in WWE.
Chris Jericho heard those chants and immediately shut them down by saying:
“We the people sucks, and it’s dead and buried. It was a stupid idea from bad creative and all that’s gone.”
This was the “PEAK” AEW era! 💥
If you’re a wrestler that gets offered big money in WWE, you have to be cognizant of the fact that unless you get over as a top talent and/or big merch seller, WWE is gonna try to get out of that deal as soon as possible.
Main roster minimum is $350,000. If you’re like, a midcarder and they throw 500 bands at you, you’re getting that for a year bro. You’re gonna get whacked. Unless you find yourself a YEET.
Pretend MMA superman Mark Phenom was so poor at this they had to reshoot it after everyone went home. Hence there's no fans but a few staff members at ringside.
Of course one of them had to have a "HHH" sign (despite him being on RAW), because that makes sense.
I took out my hatred for the IWC on Sandi, and inadvertently others who are effected by MS. She didnt deserve it and for that, I sincerely apologize.
Moving forward I'll do better.
Recapping this week in wrestling Twitter:
- AJ Styles’ AEW debut was delayed until Double or Nothing with news that seemingly surprised even him as he was ordered by WWE to enter the all-but-redundant-in-credibility Hall of Fame this year. Either that or he decided that working for a company who have fans vocally promoting human rights was at odds with his moral compass
- WWE’s online fanbase rejoiced at the fact they’ll never see AJ Styles wrestle again, preferring that option than him being on another channel wrestling people he’s never wrestled before
- Monday Night Raw continued its 2025 Smackdown tribute by being repulsively unwatchable, with The Undertaker coming out to speak with his fellow flat earth brethren AJ Styles on the only thing that wasn’t heinously panned by everyone not named Raj or Alfred.
- AEW maintained their run of a weekly TV MOTY contender for February with a batshit crazy main event on another stellar Dynamite. Dave Meltzer logically proceeded to rate the match as 5 stars, the 22nd he was awarded AEW since the start of 2025 - 5 more than he has given WWE’s main roster in their history. Cue Brandon….
- Speaking of Meltzer, the sassy and borderline insane pensioner got into a brief back and forth with the eternally insufferable and exclusively wrong Julian Weeks. It’s fair to say they could argue forever without either considering they might be wrong.
- A moment of poor judgement from Harley Cameron saw Penelope Ford unfortunately twist her ankle, leading to a quick audible during the women’s tag titles, and everyone on Twitter who has never fully dealt with the fact their father’s didn’t love them spewing crazed abuse at the young women, forcing her to making the wise decision of deleting her account of this rancid far right fuckhole of an app
- WWE came under attack for their line up for the men’s elimination chamber line up this weekend, fans seemingly not learning the lessons of the past *checks notes* 23 months of constantly disappointment the kindly loyal, and almost certainly now broke, fanbase
Yes, Tony Khan briefly appearing in the ring without saying a word to showcase a world title in probably his 3rd on screen appearance since 2024 is exactly the same as that insecure moron putting himself front and centre of every single thing imaginable
John Cena has harsher words for wrestlers having fun on house shows, a thing that is essentially beloved by everyone, than Vince McMahon being a s3x predator.
Also this is the type of shit Cena was doing at house shows.
@FadeAwayMedia Madness? Fuck all happened except they replayed the royal rumble and had reigns/lesnar sit down to talk.
Honestly man this app gets worse and worse
I like Sami Zayn as a wrestler, and I think he’s a good person.
He’s also a soulless sellout that’s happily taking millions from a legitimately evil promotion.
He shouldn’t get away from criticism.
Yep they really dropped the ball on a guy who could barely draw a reaction week to week. But he does cool moves so he should have been a 30 time world champion.
Guy who potentially brought back mainstream attention to the dying business is spoon fed.
You don’t understand we should have a 150lb guy as the world champ who only 200,000 people watch every week he will take it back into the stratosphere of peak entertainment
