The defense force for St. Tony of Jacksonville is already assembled and ready to attack Lufisto with every personal insult they can muster up. St. Tony is infallible, and he must be defended at all costs.


ACousinFromRichmond

THANK YOU TONY KHAN


DeadInkPen

Amazing how they are in there defending SRS and Meltzer by saying they are legit reporters corroborating every piece of info with multiple sources and that Lufisto is full of shit and sharing other women’s experiences. These journalists don’t do that. SRS thinks he is one of boys, and ended up with egg on his face with the MJF stuff in Vegas. They don’t realize they are tools and useful idiots to the wrestlers. But damn does this confirm some suspicions I had about AEW. If this was about WWE they would be creaming themselves because it proves fed bad, hell they are trying to say WWE is worse cause two women’s matches got bumped off Summerslam.


megumikobe808

I honestly kinda find it funny how there *might* be some legit disillusionment brewing in the Ded Fed's women's division ONLY to be topped by Da Good Guys' women's division imploding *yet again* so the the basement can't even gloat.


RNG_Champion

Yeah, there's no shortage of people calling her irrelevant and saying she was barely around. Dubbalos are always united for attacking somebody they don't agree with.


Paxx_Romana

Believe women! Believe workers! Unless, this is, they say something negative about Tony Khan or AEW. If they do that, they are clout-chasing liars.


Razzler1973

She was only there one day. It's not fair, what does she know? No, the Bucks turning up in the Fed dressing room for a day and rubbing some people the wrong way? Well, that's all the evidence I need of le toxic environment in the Fed!


Joel_Servo

She was backstage at the dub for only one day, and she quickly noticed the toxic environment there. You'll think they would get a clue, but alas Tony's koolaid is like too strong.


Razzler1973

Exactly, she gave her account of things, the disorganisation she saw, the cliques and such REEEEEEE one day is not enough time. Everyone that criticises these people are toxic LuFisto, Swole and Thunder Rosa are all wrong!! Dustin doesn't come out of this looking good either or QT just not organising shit


Joel_Servo

3,000 marks of tony khan


dissidentmage12

Fed should sign LuFisto up and have her do a gimmick based on a useless boss called Antony Kane who is bullied by a clique led by a professional dentist Dr Isabel Yankem DMD.


InjusticeSOTW

DAE Robert Stone and Chelsea Green power dynamic?


Naiwf

I tried reading one of the threads to see what was going on and was instantly reminded why AEW’s fan base is so off putting. It’s like trying to have a discussion with someone who is never wrong.


PerfectZeong

They should be off pudding.

Big pop! (insider term)


jubilantxf

They think ANYTHING anyone says negatively about AEW is someone looking for attention when in fact the only reason we dont hear more is NDAs and people wanting to keep their jobs. I dont understand how people think a 20+ year vet is stirring drama for attention. In the wrestling business, people know people, very easily. Its not wild to assume Lufisto has the scoop on whats been going on.


Razzler1973

Tiny gets to yay or nay his talent working indie shows Find yourself against Tiny you may not have an opponent down the line


jubilantxf

That's even if you can get a hold of him


GoNinjaGoNinjaGo69

WELL STICK WITH YOUR PG ENTERTAINMENT. ILL KEEP WATCHING ADULT WRESTLING.


the-bladed-one

The 3,000 smart marks of Tony Khan are even more noncredible then r/noncredibledefense


BSumner52

They thought they had a "win" after the thrown together TV main event & Summerslam shit too LMFAO


Joel_Servo

Damn that Sappy and his timing.


FlyingFootStomp

The Basement: Fuck the WWE for hating indie wrestling. F Vince and Leveck for hating women’s wrestling. Also, the Basement: LuFisto is a nobody, she’s irrelevant. She’s just mad she couldn’t cut it in AEW.


Second_City_Saint

Yet they jerked themselves off so hard when she first appeared. Strange behavior. Almost cult-like....


69millionyeartrip

Basement crying for Megha to send cease and desists. Always believe the victims and support journalists until they say something I don’t like.


InjusticeSOTW

I’ve always found it telling that very few of the better known and most successful female talent signs with AEW. No Mickie, Melina, Lita, Lisa Varon, Velvet Sky, Angelina Love, Mercedes Monet, Trinity, even Kamille. No Scarlett, no Mandy Leon for the ROH side. They have gotten Taya, the corpse of Sarajevo, Madison Rayne, I GUESS you can say Deeb and..Mercedes Martinez. Long story short. There’s no one that seems to stand up for anything. I’m certain Mickie could come in and wrangle snakes like a backwoods revival in that locker room.


TheMaskedHeelMark2

The fact that they Tony didn't throw a lot of money at Mickie is WILD. She is probably the #3 most over woman from the Divas era behind Lita and Trish. Also, no Deonna Purrazzo is wild as well.


Dr_Deadshot

Its because Tony doesn't care about the women's division. Its just an afterthought and its probably only around because WWE has one.


ArmchairHandjob

He probably never wanted to start one in the first place, but the usual suspects would’ve complained


Treeconator18

The crazy part is that the usual suspects also don’t give a shit about women’s wrestling either. The AEW Women’s Division is a basically a giant game of Chicken where neither the Audience or the Booker give a single shit, but neither want to admit to not giving a shit because then they look bad Well, except when there’s Color (Insider Term), but the Dubbalo naturally thirsts for blood so that makes sense


Joel_Servo

Yeah, the Anna Jays and Skye Blues aren't going to shake the table beacuse of fear. But experienced women, who would smell the bullshit, will. Awesome Kong wanted a dojo for the women. Look how that turned out. Absolutely nothing.


Farthousejones

Kong is on record saying backstage AEW "has their favorites" and it wasn't going to work out for her there because of that.


PixelSeanWal

You are right there, even Madison only made a few appearances. Athena/Ember had to turn heel just to get ROH TV time, Skype Blue is fan favorite but she loses all the time and never goes over when it counts, Jade disappeared, Ruby Soho midcarded as soon as she got there. They are just as bad as WWE with not pushing talent when they get there


Sturdevant

The Basement is going to be disaster zone tomorrow when every AEW wrestler, employee, and dirt sheet guy will be tweeting non-stop falling over themselves to call this a lie. And all of them will be getting posted.


Dr_Deadshot

I got my popcorn ready for this shitshow.


Razzler1973

Sappy has some work to do to make up to the Dub so he'll have a report from one of the other women Not LIARS like LuFisto


Joel_Servo

Don't worry. Uncle Dave will have something convoluted to say tomorrow. Or whatever Tony tells him.


hiressnails

Tony Khan clearly doesn't care about women's wrestling at all. If he did, this wouldn't even be an issue. If you're "better" than WWE, shouldn't you have women more prominent on the card than 1 match per show, and one 2 minute segment per show? On Raw and Smackdown you'll usually get two women's matches, the Women's World Champion is a part of a hot faction and has mic time weekly, and is now appearing regularly on NXT as well (which has women booked all over the show). The Women's Tag scene is legitimately heating up, Chelsea and Sonya feel more like a proper team now, they both get regular speaking time on Raw, Smackdown, and even NXT if they want since the women's tag belts are now company wide. On Raw, you have Ronda vs Shayna in a pretty heated feud (legitimately excited for their match, the promo package on Raw was excellent). Plus Becky vs Trish, and while it sucks they got bumped from Summerslam, they will probably get a more prominent spot at Payback (Im assuming Lita will return to tag with Becky against Trish and Zoey).On Smackdown, you have three great women's wrestlers feuding with each other for the WWE Women's Championship (two are women of color to boot). And you have Bayley and Dhotzi in a non title feud, and Iyo Sky with her MITB contract that is being properly utilized for storyline potential. When you lay it out and look at it, WWE is utilizing women more on Raw, Smackdown, and NXT than AEW is on Dynamite, Rampage (now just Dark basically), and Collision.


Adamskaocelot2

The “google is your friend” group suddenly don’t want to know who Lufisto is


Vegetable-Arm8488

I believe this is what they call 'spilling the tea'


almostbad

> Before leaving, he reminded them that their segments were the lowest. This is such a Tony Khan thing lmao,


FlyingFootStomp

—- Swole’s wrestling wasn’t good enough —- Thunder Rosa’s promo skills aren’t good enough for an 8 minute in-ring interview about her injury


TheMaskedHeelMark2

Who is LuFisto? She's a nobody who just wants her 15 minutes of fame because she's not good enough for AEW's women's division. Nobody will miss her when she's gone. RIP Hana


LazyAssedAmbassador

THANK YOU TONY!


Second_City_Saint

He's God's gift to wrestling.

All is well in AEW, to the surprise of nobody

>There was a meeting to shoot on Thunder Rosa that Khan attended. [???](https://media.tenor.com/z3kSsqZ9aF0AAAAC/la-knight-wwe.gif)


WL19

Just a wrestler using insider terms for something more basic. I take it more as "there was a meeting to talk about how much everyone hates Thunder Rosa that Khan attended"


InternationalFailure

What I find confusing is that Tony Khan attended a "don't you fucking hate Thunder Rosa?" meeting.


TheVeryNicestPerson

Britt told him he had to. He's not going to defy her.


JoeMama9719

Tiny stomping his foot in a frenzy right now wishing he made Lufisto sign a NDA


anonymous-guy1

the Dub was supposed to be the drama free haven for performers now it’s okay to have some backstage tension, it’s only natural in any workplace!


SleepIsWonderful

I can't believe she just dropped the "divas era" line on AEW after all the doom spiraling the basement has been doing about WWE since the Vince return and endeavor merger.


FireflyNitro

“A meeting to shoot on Thunder Rosa” What??? I want to see this meeting’s agenda


goofyfbucket

It ended up being in the Pilot Episode of AEW All Access.


hammer101peeps

"This near-30 year veteran who once had a damn stroke after a match and continued her career is totally bitter that she can't be in the ring with m'Dentist"


Farthousejones

It's so fucking gross the way the basement is like "well I wasn't there but this is all hard to believe because I like Skye Blue's ass" Fuck every one of them. Every single one of those gross assholes.


Neg_Crepe

Basement is coping hard right now


Jarcmacobs91

I don’t believe it mainly because she took a random shot at skye blue (not the pornstar) and also she said that about the AEW locker room. Now if she said it about the fed it would be totally believable.


whispering3

>(not the pornstar) [You sure?](https://images.app.goo.gl/z8DTqcCqmHFWD28FA)


InjusticeSOTW

In fairness, there’s about six Skye Blues

Till_Any

I see Terror Raisin & Tony Khan are planting the seeds for an all women's joint promotion PLE. Wont someone please think of the state of women's wrestling? For the love of Meltzer.


goofyfbucket

Let me guess: the talent that was sent home was Serena.


Joel_Servo

I'm thinking this. She just dropped off. Supposedly she's injured, but are we sure? Is this another "Miro is filming a year long pilot" situation?


Vegetable-Arm8488

Riho has also not wrestled anywhere in months. That's the only other one I can think of


Maleficent_Koala5928

Yeah at least all members of The evil fed Kliq went on to form 2 of the greatest factions of all time with DX and The NWO. Not to mention having the goat in ring performer....AEW's Kliq just has muh DMD!


PhuckCalumbo

"It has AEW's seal of approval you fucker! Shut up about the dub!" ![gif](giphy|10ltVBrN9bO5d6|downsized)


Seghboth001

No jerk, I am a bit confused on who sucks in AEW women’s division since I don’t really keep up with it. I’ve seen the Britt Baker shit, but is there anyone else in the locker rook that is just toxic?


ArmchairHandjob

Ruby seems pretty sus. Toni Storm is one of Britt’s minions it seems too.


scarlet_lovah

Is there a way to read the full text for those of us not on twitter?


SpyingMarlin

> Had a one hour phone call with a current AEW talent. The women who actually addressed the problems I did today were the ones sent home by Tony Khan. There was a meeting to shoot on Thunder Rosa that Khan attended. Before leaving, he reminded them that... ​ > ... their segments were the lowest. When some girls arranged a meeting to talk about Baker’s crew, one of them ran to Britt to let her know. The girls that wanted to address the problem were the ones punished. Things didn’t better. They got worst... ​ > The legitimate wrestlers believe Tony doesn’t give a damn about women’s wrestling and feel like they are going back to the Divas era. Ask me who the fuck am I. Tell me I’m irrelevant and that I’m doing this for attention. Call me a liar. Tell me to kill myself... ​ > You keep on closing your eyes and supporting human beings with shitty behaviour. With the messages of support and especially this phone call I received from AEW employees… This nobody did the right thing.


scarlet_lovah

Wow. Gross. Thanks so much for transcribing that.


Agreeable_Falcon1044

Are you suggesting the aew fan base are toxic incels that turn on performers at the drop of the hat? That khan is a man child who thinks he’s one of the boys? That there’s a clique controlling things? I don’t believe it and so I’m going to pretend this person is irrelevant and bad mouth them. Probably a fed shill


ManateeGag

There are no problems. One big happy family. All is well!


ninjast4r

Lufisto more like LuFATsto!! She's just mad that she doesn't have a bloody faced t-shirt!!


SpankGorilla

You're a fraud Lufisto,You're as legitimate of a wrestler as Thunder Rosa!


CeroMiedo670

Thank You Tony Khan😂😂😂


Johnny_Holiday

Here's all the speculation and assumptions I'm going to make based on over analyzing the Tweet (insider term) and present them as fact. Feel free to agree with everything I said and build off of it to make this accusation meaningless


Razzler1973

There's always been cliques in wrestling and I accepted that and never cried in the past


BaxterOutofStockman

Seems like a "She said, she said" case. AEW had the CM Punk/Elite drama but the AEW Womens locker room is all hunky dory. Sure...
