The actual tweet

 

Lol the thing AEW has been hyping for the past day has been a show in Jacksonville

 

Rewatched the NXT main event and damn that’s a 5 star match to me. And I love the sounds of the beat down on Ciampa after. The way the ring was mic’d sounded great

 

That's it?

 

Probably shouldn't have hyped that so much.

 

Can’t believe they still haven’t announced anything for New York

 

Like I was saying....

 

His tweet about lethal was pretty fucking unnecessary tho

 

Depends on context that we're unaware of.

 

These guys are great at getting merch over lol

 

Calling another black man an “Uncle Tom” is one of the most derogatory terms ever - it’s very offensive

 

Oh shit I completely missed the last paragraph. I thought it was just a link. Sorry.

 

Again, we don't know the context.

 

I'm not sure keeping him under contract and forcing him to work there is the best look given what the whole situation is about.

 

But at the same time, letting go of a talent because they called out your racism isn't something they'll want to do either. It's a no win situation for WWE.

They've made a rod for their own back with this.

 

ACH is in kind of a weird place. I don't feel like he was ever a draw anywhere. I remember Dave talking about how he wasn't signed for a while because they didn't really see much in him, but once AEW started signing everyone, they offered him a contract. I don't know how much IMPACT he'd have elsewhere.

 

Unless Jay Lethal's real name is Tom and he's literally Jordans uncle, I'm not sure there's a context where it's not offensive

 

Yeah I understand what he’s upset about, but I can’t help but feel like he’s bitter about his spot on the card no matter where we wrestles. Hopefully he finds happiness in AEW or wherever he goes next.

 

Oh, absolutely and I’m sure it’s meant to be offensive. There’s probably some incident between ACH and Lethal that led to this (I think they worked together in a program in ROH). Since I have no idea what caused it and have no battle here, I’m just going to bigepopcorn.gif over here.

 

I have no idea what to believe about Jay Lethal anymore after the stuff with Taeler Hendrix.

 

Jay Lethal is trending in the US

 

Today's been too much for a boring day at work.

ACH

Tony Khan working because they have a dumbass running the AEW social media account

Cody rehashing the Pharoah-Pyro incident

Casey going off on Twitter rn about AEW's "wErE dIfFeReNt" in regards to women's wrestling
