Twitter Fingers
By Scott Keith on 13 October 2023
So clearly no one has been able to wrestle Tony's phone away from him, or he just has multiple ones stashed away so he can't be stop. But maybe someone should be an adult over there and get him stop. I know sometimes bad press is better than no press, but I don't think that's the case in this situation. I get he is trying to get some extra engagement, but is he really helping anything at this point? It just looks like a rich kid lashing out cause he didn't get what he wanted.
I am sure it was funny to some of the boys before Tues night, but now that is over and it unfortunately wasn't close, it just looks bad in my opinion. Does he think HBK cares about an Observer booker of the year award, or that Vince reads Twitter? He pointed out Cena and Taker appearing on TV for below a million viewers, but what does it say about Edge, Christian, and Jericho having an audience of barely 600k. Just take the loss, learn from it, and move on.
Instead Tony is getting involved in cagematch conspiracy theories with the biggest internet loser Rovert, and arguing with wwe spam accounts on Twitter. The worst thing is today Tony used his mom's health scare last year as a battle cry against WWE, saying they made it personal when he had to take phone calls from AEW talent about WWE tampering while he was at her bedside. Like they knew that was happening and tried to take advantage of it. As someone who lost their mom a few years ago, that is just disgusting behavior to link the two together.
It plays really badly and he needs to step away from the phone. If you're siding with Rovert you've got a serious problem. And yeah the tampering stuff was really weird as well. Also no one is even faulting the show for doing 600k viewers, it was on a different night of the week and wrestling fans are creatures of habit. He's the only one who still cared 24 hours after the ratings came out. Aside from bad faith AEW trolls.
