Then they forced this
prom King and Queen Owen Hart tournament win on on fans that was cringe as fuck. Shortly after shit was down hill for her popularity

 

[Chi-Town B]

There was a time when Baker was over as the fuck.. All my early AEW fans know she would get HUGE pops and fan support. Might can even say she was as over as Omega and Mox were with crowd reactions.

That's why I always said even if she can't wrestle like that she one of them ones who got charisma and crowd support down pack at the time and was doing entertaining segments with Reba . Now it's like all that steam passed and I dont think it's just because better talent came in, more so they stopped presenting her like that and removed from tv over and over due to whatever was going on. Plus nobody wanted her and Coles relationship all over tv.

She was only over cause there was no one else there

 

[OGDirtyD]

What if I told you that the majority of the IWC is hating her because of the fact that she is leaving Adam Cole?

That’s crazy.

Reminds me of when Uncle Jesse divorced Mystique. They ate her alive.

The decline was happening before that came out. But yes typical wrestling nerds on Twitter with that

Nah I think her segments were actually entertaining at the time and were doing great, she was winning fans over with alot of it. They stopped doing what made her hot right after her first Injury.

It didn't help her playing backstage politics with Thunder Rosa

Right tho that match really put her over. Blood colored the whites in her eyes

 

[Chi-Town B]

I do think her and MJF was nothing to be suspended over, you don't have to like your co worker and I think he was more in the wrong than she was.

 

[Iceberg_Taylor]

I think the last time she was on tv she was shouting “nobody cares” at Serena deeb & ppl felt like she went off script lol shit was kinda wild

 

[Chi-Town B]

I think if Adam Cole wasn't a failure in the company then she wouldn't be in the dumps. Playing those backstage politic games can only go if you're the top person, after bigger names came in the stuff she was doing didn't fly anymore.

I blame Con for letting her get away with that.

...that match slapped imo.

@TonyDubbz I thought I had to send the goon squad to your location bruh. B/c I mistook your post as Jade slander. But after re-reading it several times, you meant that's why she bounced from AEW and went to WWE.

You good...for now.

Was that Sasha and Brit match anything worth a damn?

Fuck no.

That shit looked like Britt was purposely trying to sabotage Mercedes.

But Mercedes was like “bitch please, I can make myself look like shit without your help, now take this fin- …fini—… take this finisher!!”

This is 100% an accurate description lol

If this was true we wouldnt STILL be getting Hogan shoved in our face for SNME

 

[Black_Samson]

He said it because he knows he’s had some awful takes about how backstage is supposed to work.

He was really offended by how professional everyone is now and how nobody was playing grab ass… or sexually assaulting someone.

Taker had an issue with the talent going back to the hotel playing video games instead of getting drunk at bars

 

[Black_Samson]

Y’all ever broke a bone like Katch did last nite?

Was that adrenaline?
High pain tolerance?

Cause she broke that bitch in two places and took it like a damn champ.

Yeah… he shouldn’t have a podcast.
I thought it was gon be fun to hear his perspective, but he just comes off like a Vince guy that smeared by.

The way he talks bout the old days without a hint of irony is crazy. Us old heads that came up with it get it, but these 00’s babies? They won’t… and he was there for them too.


He needs a better handler

 

[IP360]

Taker is from that era where they stood on bidness concerning kayfabe....selling outside the ring...etc. Old skool shyt. A lot of them feel like if they had to go thru all that to pay their dues, then this current era of talent has to as well.

Some of them refuse to let go the way they was brought up in the bidness, and adapt to current times. Or have issues folks being friends with each other. I think their biggest gripe is yall can be friends...just don't be seen. You didn't really SEE guys from Taker's era and b4 hanging out, unless they was in your town. Social media has completely erased that.

So I got where he was coming from. But at the same time...the landscape has completely changed. Them days are long gone. You still have your purist ala MJF...Cody...Ethan who you can tell they still carry like old skool way. But for the most part...meh.

 

[Chi-Town B]

The companies not even like that anymore when they're putting out shows like Total Divas and didn't AEW put out a backstage show.
