What are the implications of Nick LoPiccolo leaving Paradigm? He's been feuding online with what he claims is an army of Tony Khan / Jacksonville-backed trolls/shills/bots, went private for a bit on X Thursday night, and now this news drops. He claims after he posted a pic of his daughter at a WWE show in July, he was simultaneously brigaded online while receiving backchannel comms from a Shad Khan inner circle exec and an AEW "c-level" exec, employing what he described as a "carrot and stick" approach.Names dropped lately:>Steve Kaye (Agent) >Farbod Esnaashari (Agent) >Steve Peck (AEW GC) >Megha Parekh (Jags GC) >Tony Khan (AEW CEO) >Shad Khan References:https://deadline.com/2026/01/nick-lopiccolo-exits-paradigm-agency-1236694698/https://xcancel.com/nicklopiccoloPrevious>>19743419Wrestling subs on plebbit are censoring, claiming this is not "wrestling-related">Recent developmentsLoPiccolo blocks GCW strongman Joey Janela https://xcancel.com/nicklopiccolo/status/2014966309633851662#m LoPiccolo calls out a twitter wrestling pundit https://xcancel.com/nicklopiccolo/status/2014992092024766924#mNick claims he has proof Tony Khan is behind it https://xcancel.com/nicklopiccolo/status/2014975413219688659#m

>>19747640While AEW and Tony Khan are certainly laughing stocks, this guy may have worked himself to a shoot. You're supposed to troll guys like Tony, without letting them impact your life.

After nearly 17 years at Paradigm, Nick LoPiccolo has parted ways with the agency as he enters the next phase of his career.As the industry undergoes transformational change, LoPiccolo will “focus on a more flexible, unrestrained model to unlock new revenue streams and opportunities beyond traditional agency structures”. Paradigm is actively supporting him during this transition and collaborating with him on the next steps, with his clients expected to transition with LoPiccolo.LoPiccolo’s client roster includes Aaron Donald, Reggie Bush, Ray Lewis, Sean Avery, Amanda Serrano, Zhang Weili, Jorge Masvidal, CM Punk, Drew McIntyre, Jade Cargill, Liv Morgan, Tiffany Stratton, and more than a dozen WWE Superstars and emerging talent, who are expected to benefit from an agency-plus relationship as this transition formalizes.LoPiccolo and Paradigm will maintain an ongoing professional relationship and continue working together on their shared clients in the interim.Having joined the agency in 2009 in film finance and sales, LoPiccolo later transitioned into talent and literary representation, reinventing his role multiple times as the business evolved. He worked closely with managing partner Andrew Ruf for more than a decade, helping shape strategy across talent, content, finance, and emerging platforms. In November 2024, he conceived and launched Paradigm’s The Sports Group, positioning athletes at the center of four-quadrant storytelling across film, TV, media rights, publishing, and brands.Across his career, LoPiccolo arranged financing and distribution for more than 150 films, spanning studio, independent, and global markets, including recent titles such as Immaculate from Black Bear and Neon.LoPiccolo is in talks with film funds, production companies, and agencies, particularly around opportunities that blend sports, media, and narrative content. A landing spot — and the next phase — will be announced soon.

>>19747736The writer of this..
>>19747919I mean to be fair if tony khan can pay fightful for booker of the year or whatever, it seems fair play for hollywood to have its own pay-to-play puff piece ecosystem as well, doesn't it?
OP hereGeneral 4chan question b/c I never make threadsAny reason why this thread isn't bumping when a new reply is made?
>>19748014i don't know but...>>19747640>GCW """strongman""" Joey Janela
is this account significant in any way? 'pick is putting it over, but it seems to just be a small japanese wrestling fan account?
>>19748028Janela was in the last bread so I figured I would give him a hat tip with the "strongman" quip. Just kiddin' around
>>19748014The most likely cause usually is someone spamming reports on a thread (in this case Big Dickolo himself) which will either get the thread removed or auto saged if it's not off topic.
>>19748079REALLY. Wow. You know, I tried to author the thread in such a way that it wasn't taking one side or another. Oh well, I'll just make another if need be in a few hours. I think we'll all agree it's on-topic. Thanks for the reply btw, appreciate it a lot.
>>19747640I heard he also got all of the WWE wrestlers released from the Paradigm deals kek
>I mean to be fair if tony khan can pay fightfulNice headcanon>>19748079Kek what a sad cunt. Don't worry Nick we'll keep making new ones!
