>>16602879Yeah I remember AEW spam about how it was gonna be a game changer and all I could think was "Botcha Banks?". I think she could be a plus, but she was never gonna move the needle. I had no idea how an AEW Stan could think the 500k fans were just waiting for Sasha Banks to come back to watch AEW.

At this point I don't enjoy laughing at Tony anymore, now it's just... sad!
>>16603014I still like laughing at him, but I also want to hurt TK physically for covering up Kylie Rae's rape. I'm not a whiteknight, beating his ass and breaking his legs is just business.
