I'm legit shocked that he has people this heated. Just go look at the Triple H thread right now. Dudes are pissed and I'm like "uhh it's trolling..."

People forgot what it's like to actually dislike a heel and still want to tune in to watch their match.

Rico is a prick. Rico is famous. He retweets some young wrestler getting praised saying he'd squash them - nobody thinks he's gonna squash him, they don't even work at the same company - all he's really done is blow up the original tweet to a bigger audience, more people get to see his praise and they'll take JeVon's side against the prick.

Wrestling being wrestling if JeVon is smart he just privately peaces it up with Rico, hopes TK takes the crackhead stuff in humour and then keeps it all in his back pocket as a ready made opening angle should he ever need a job down the line. :yeshrug:

It’s wild how night and day it goes with fans. You have marks up in arms over Rico’s :troll: and fans who see what he’s doing just :mjlol: about it. And you have dudes who don’t even watch AEW still checking out AEW threads. shyt is trippy. :dwillhuh:

Put it this way, Ricochet is in his Control verse phase right now. As a character he's got the money, he's got the girl and he's got his promos/twitter fingers.

Everyone's a target and if he respects you enough to mention you, you've got to take it in the spirit of sport.

That type of spirit can tuck a sensitive wrestler up in his pajamas clothes though.:sas1:

I get it... if someone thinks all types of online trolling is corny or whatever then cool but people gotta be consistent too. Some are consistent and some ain't... Becky Lynch was just on some show tryna troll Mercedes yesterday. Is that gonna lead to a match? Obviously not. I had no problem with it at all, it's just fukkery to me but if you gonna have an issue with someone from one company doing it, then u should take issues with all of it lmaoo

Young og might need a j-o-b one day. He should probably direct all his smoke at the biracial and not throw slugs at the owner of the #2 biggest company in the industry he’s apart of

Mf gon end up in gcw wrestling against Sydney Akeem if he not careful
That’s where he messed up, mentioning Tony Khan, even tho calling him a crackhead was funny as hell lol. Oh well, I hear TNA is hiring…

I think a lot of wrestlers play low-key long games too - like years later when they used Undertaker confronting Brock at the UFC fight to sell the streak-ending Wrestlemania match. At the time neither of them knew a match was going to happen but they were both there, so they did something. Made an investment with a few seconds on someone else's dime.

If you have a chance to lay any tiny bit more weight on a match you might want to happen in the future then why not do it? Especially if it's just a quote tweet to make marks mad. :yeshrug:

Wait... who said Young OG was a "bad guy"? The lack of reading comprehension is at unspeakable levels right now lol.. Young OG shouldn't have tried to come at Tony Khan during the back and forth. That's the part where it didn't make sense because he might be looking to TK for a job someday

It don't even make sense being the person that said this wrestlers in 200 seater crowds but

It’s not tho lol people just get defensive about it but the wrestlers who have stood out the most and became the biggest stars over there all have definitive looks and presentations whether it be Swerve walkin around with grills and chinchilla’s, MJF and his Burberry aesthetic, Darby and his grunge look etc. presentation still means a lot in wrestling and the way you present when you’re just out there cutting a promo is just as important as your presentation when you’re wrestling


But for every one of the guys I mentioned, you have random nikkas in white tees and hokas looking like the most uninteresting people ever
Chill out, I'm trying to get daps from the e-drones :mjtf:
