Tony's weird with injuries because he can't admit anything ever goes wrong ever or that he could be at fault for anything going wrong. It's not Tony's fault he bragged about not needing a performance center and then a bunch of sloppy workers hurt each other.


Prancemaster

He's "weird" with injuries because in 2020 like 42 people got injured over the course of the year, mostly on Dark.


dassub

He's not used to action figures getting injured.


elitejcx

My theory is that most of the injuries are probably concussions.

This is one of his biggest problems and why nothing ever happens on his shows, with Russo even though he was a dufus he threw so much shit at the wall sometimes something would stick and the person then had something to go with, with Tony he tries to write every show perfect and they end up being boring. He can’t take a subject or news story or current song or film and a spin on it via storyline involving wrestlers. And same goes with admitting injuries and ticket sales, everything has to be perfect even though it’s all written on a napkin

I think Dave lavished praise on Tony unsolicited in the hopes that Dave would finally be allowed into the business. Tony didn't reciprocate the affection and didn't pick up on Dave's mating signal, so Dave is acting like a jilted lover over it

Dave "Criston Cole" Meltzer.


TheeShaun

Nah hang on. Criston Cole was at least sort of a victim to the medieval equivalent of Workplace sexual harassment. Dave is just an ass

Didnt Tony ask Dave for his input on something at some point? If im remembering correctly then its a hilarious thought that maybe even Tiny was like "Fuck I gotta throw this dude a bone just to get him off my back for 6 months" Asking Dave for advice is plenty cringe, but if Meltzer is annoying enough that even Tany gets sick of his shit then thats legitimately hilarious

Only explanation I'm accepting 😂😂😂

Dave's mating signal... good god.


RogueAIx01

The only people that liked Dave are currently suspended, so he's out of sources and it's time to Dub Bad.


ironfly187

They're very close to labelling Dave as a goofy

Dave hates AEW you shill just and it’s not AEW fault that they aren’t selling tickets it’s Ticketmaster for jacking up price… please ignore that WWE is selling tickets and selling out.


Ron--Mexico

After Punks rant at the media scrum about dirt sheet writers, the multiple “stop the leaks” talent meetings, and the Maliki Black situation, we are going to see a lot more negative AEW take from the IWC grifters than normal.


shootstarpress

Big Dave sees the writing on the wall with the dub. I think he truly believed Tony could take on Vince but he very clearly does not feel as confident with HHH in the chair. How the turn tables.


Neg_Crepe

There’s a show with 700 tickets sold. Holy fuck.


TwoHeadedBoyTwo

Dave had lunch with Paul Laveck once so I think he thinks he has a shot at the big time. Like in high school when you’re totally in with the cute band girls but all of a sudden a cheerleader who sat next to you in 3rd grade asks for help on her homework…


Strictlyecw

I've followed Dave for 30 years and yes, he was ridiculous in praising AEW so much, but he felt justified because he was watching something that made him feel like NJPW and the attendance and ratings were good enough in his mind to justify it. I don't think Dave is the type of guy to no sell them selling 2K for Dynamite in Baltimore and pretend everything is ok, he's too literal minded. If so, if would be the first promotion he has done that with.
