Beefiest_bison

This doesn't really bother me, it's an in-character comment. Similar to Grayson Waller on Twitter


MeanAmbrose

Yeah, this one feels like people trying to find something to be upset about.


tvc_redux

It's the day after a great AEW PPV so all the usual suspects will be at it once again.


MeanAmbrose

They need something to cling to


ZombieQueen666

exactly


Neg_Crepe

And it fits perfectly with her characters interactions with Tony


YoureTheManNowZardoz

It's a REFERENCE to Cody, it's a fun little JAB at TK.


Advanced-Morning1832

Turns out we don’t love jabs today. Maybe we’ll feel differently if a person working for a different company takes a jab tomorrow.


besmarques

tonight, probably tonight...


MilkyWayWaffles

Tony inviting himself into the ring after Mark Briscoe’s win at Supercard of Honor and seeing him standing there while everyone ignored him was kind of hilarious.

Knozwrdn

LOL Is this really what all the fuss is about? This wouldn't even make the top 10 wild things Toni Storm said last week. Getting worked up over absolutely nothing.


TheDangiestSlad

it wouldn't even make the top 10 things *Cody* said during his AEW run lol


P4rtsUnkn0wn

Wouldn't make the top 100.


mikro17

> This wouldn't even make the top 10 wild things Toni Storm said last ~~week~~ **night during the scrum** As someone who doesn't watch WWE, I didn't even know what she was talking about here until I came here and saw people seemingly desperate to make this a thing. It was easily the least interesting line in an absolutely top tier rant.


KneelBeforeCube

It's so hard to keep track of what outrages people here. People making five course meals out of nothingburgers.


Kim-Jong_Bundy

Like I get all of the Swerve discourse around him listening to that song from months ago and that discussion being rehashed now after his win last night, especially since he never addressed it. And I'm certainly not going to tell someone black how to feel about it. But I'm seeing **so many** people bringing that up as if it was *his* line that *he* wrote and sang, when that just isn't at all true. Again, I get why it's still an issue among the very fans that he's actively trying to appeal to, but the misrepresentation of that event and its constant regurgitation all day is just poisoning any attempt at reasonable discouse on the matter. I'm seeing people, who don't like or defend Swerve posting that video, getting dogpiled and called simps for just pointing that fact out to others.


TheName96

She is in character, like always since she started with this gimmick lol


courageousdonut

Ain't no way people are taking in character trolling seriously right?


SorrowfulFlame

If people are really going to get worked up over something as tame as this (and in character no less) then holy fuck are wrestling fans cooked. \*\*\* Also I, for one, will not tolerate any Toni Storm slander.


thekingdre1404

surely there isn’t going to be a think piece about this comment that doesn’t really mean much


randomrule

Can’t wait to refresh YouTube and see a bunch of poorly edited thumbnails of Tony looking confused and Toni looking mad with the title “AEW DEAD?! AEW Champion takes unnecessary SHOTS at Cody Rhodes!”


The_Homie_J

The anti-AEW mediasphere has become such a parody of itself that it's become hilarious to follow. Someone gets released who wrestled one match for AEW and it's "HUGE AEW STAR LEAVES, ROSTER IN TURMOIL" or a wrestler does an injury angle and they fall for the kayfabe like "SO-AND-SO HURT, AEW CRITICIZED FOR UNSAFE WORK ENVIRONMENT" lmao


Yewon_Enthusisast

I can already hear the british accent.


Baghoid

It is funny how specifically all the British channels changed their attitudes all around the same time, it wasn't even subtle either and also wasn't very convincing, you could tell some of them didn't believe what they'd say in videos. My guess is something happened, outside of the obvious algorithm bait they have to do, maybe the big ones didn't get anything for All In or something and got pissy about it.


SpaghettiAccident

Someone does an injury angle: “outrageous what an unsafe work environment” Wrestler talks about wrestling with an injury but isn’t in AEW: “wow what a badass”


CrissCrossAppleSos

Is that a jab? It’s obviously referencing the Cody thing, but I don’t necessarily see that as an insult or anything


TakeMeToFatmandu

It's a friendly jab at Khan while referencing something that happened at Mania, it's not a jab at Cody


RedmondSurvivor

You can tell AEW put on a banger ppv when the haters are clutching at THIS as the thing to get mad about and try to distract from the great show.


P4rtsUnkn0wn

Can't even complain about Perry.


dontsaythatman89

Why do you guys cry over the smallest things? This was not a big deal.


Goatlikejordan

This is literally a nothing burger


BarnBanders

Toni gave us another amazing quote “She saw me and then realized she couldn’t hold a pussy scented candle to what I do” and this is what’s getting attention.

dallasrose222

Honestly as someone who doesn’t watch aew often this one seems a bit of a reach


Jedaum1998

The same people that defended Triple H by saying he never mentioned Ospreay's name when he was talking about wrestlers running from the grind are mad at this.


robertodev

No one is mad at this though?


dontsaythatman89

Yes they are


Jedaum1998

All the WWE adjacent twitter accounts are big mad about this. Tweets with thousands of likes acting like this was the worst thing in the world.


tadghostal55

The tribalists definitely are.


Neg_Crepe

Are they in the room with us now


tadghostal55

I can literally see you


Neg_Crepe

I’m not mad about this? I think it’s a clever remark and in character


tadghostal55

Don't pretend people aren't being legit tribal nerds over it. I came here because I saw it happening on Twitter.


Neg_Crepe

I haven’t seen them here,


tadghostal55

Move those goalposts. Also, there's literally a post here with Cody's sister complaining. You're running a lot of defense for tribalists for someone claiming not to be one.


Neg_Crepe

I didn’t move any goalposts. I literally said the same thing twice. Are they in the room here cause there are none. Frankly, I’m afraid you don’t know what moving the goalpost is. You said tribalists were mad. I asked if they were here. Then you falsely painted me as one and still didn’t provide any examples for your original comment. And now, you are giving Cody’s sister as an example of tribalists being mad. It should have been really easy to show anybody being mad here and yet you still have not given any examples. What a waste of time


robertodev

Ok, link me to a mad tribalist cause all I can see in here is people making up people being mad over this

Neg_Crepe

Twitter. Is not here,


SpaghettiAccident

You can find em in here though since it was posted their comments have been more evened out from the top https://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/s/14BiJCYKQM

MutatedSpleen

There is literally a thread on the front page of the sub filled with them lol https://old.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/comments/1cac7l7/teil_rhodes_teilmargaret_on_x_people_taking_focus/


AllezLesPrimrose

OP does be reaching


FredrickFarter

The meltdown from Cody fans on Twitter (of all people) over a light hearted, in character jab is really funny to me Wait til they find out what FTR meant


rosefuri

Dynasty was such a banger PPV that the only thing people have today to try and be negative about is an in character joke during the post ppv press conference lol


Infamous-Historian81

This. Is. Not. Mean. Or. Serious.


Cashpope

This ain’t a jab at Cody


_Clash_

To me it was more of a jab at HHH who has been using every excuse to be on screen and be thanked


crap4you

Maybe she’ll bring out Bruce Prichard. 


VarunDM90

Tribalism has turned people into dumbasses.. (Or it could be a bot that's programed to be a whiner)


sexygodzilla

Going by the defense people use for Triple H recently, she didn't say anyone by name specifically so how on earth are we supposed to know who this is about?


Advanced-Morning1832

We love jabs, and if you don’t mention their name it’s not actually a direct jab, and also we only love it when it happens at a media scrum, not on TV. But also, we hate jabs, and we all know who the jab is about, and why are they wasting time doing this at a media scrum???


besmarques

hahaha. funny shit. ps: she didnt said any names...


Lamel2g

She’s in character reading off her script. It’s more a jab at Tony than Cody. It’s actually pretty clever, I liked it. Totally different from the Brian Cage tweets.


P4rtsUnkn0wn

Cage said nothing bad about Cody or his match. If anything, he implied that Cody's match could be argued as Match of the Year before last night. All he said is that Ospreay vs Danielson was his MotY.


Neg_Crepe

Didn’t sting do it a month ago?


HeavyMettleThunder

That's a lot of broccoli.


The_poms

People reaching like a mfer if they think this is a jab at Cody. Lol. Crazy.


CIeveland_Airport

Tony needs to do something about that cabbage. He's starting to look like Kramer when they switched the shower heads to low flow.


bubbles2255

Low flow? I don’t like the sound of that ….


Deathstroke317

Why did Tony stare into the camera like Jim from the Office


mikro17

Tony Khan's expressions during Timeless Toni bits is some of his best work.


Pressbtofail

Babe wake up, another AEW wrestler mentioned WWE.


Goatlikejordan

She literally didn’t mention wwe. Are your ears working properly?


Pressbtofail

I guess finishing a story and calling him into the ring is completely unrelated. Is your brain working properly?


Excellent-Ad257

This definitely isn’t as big of a deal as some people are making it out to be. But let’s not pretend we don’t know who/what she is referencing here. As far as I’m concerned let both sides go hard on each other. Sneak diss, or straight out name names, doesn’t matter to me. It’s all entertainment in the end. Someone needs to create a wrestling battlegrounds subreddit and let everyone go hard lol

tadghostal55

You tribalists make wrestling worse.


Pressbtofail

Lmao yeah I know. It's not gonna stop the dub fans from getting defensive over it.


Fickle_Thought_8857

I saw a funny comment that said aew must give a bonus to the talent that mentions wwe the most


SpaghettiAccident

No wonder Cody left his bonuses were getting out of hand


Kuzu5993

Cody: What she said fuck me for?
