11k would buy me a lot of nice things, but I'd probably chuck it in the bank.
you could use some of that money to buy front row tickets for your fellow wrasslegafers at a T-Swizzle concert
Personally, I won't use ignore lists because I don't want to shield myself from opinions I may disagree with. While many people here usually have fair and balanced points on both sides of an argument, it often seems to me that there are some who are purposefully over-inflammatory in order to get a rise out of others. That's the sort of bickering we could do without and I'd prefer to see people to be more sincere in their arguments, rather than trying to rile each other up.
Those are the type of people you should ignore.
The problem with just ignoring them, however, is that if that person gets a rise out of someone else, then you still have to deal with the wake of posts that follow some gimmick poster shitpost.

That was some weak ass trolling.
Strong trolling would have been "nice post, who is that in your avatar? is he a wrestler or something?"

That would've been a #deadgiveaway and not really relating to what Bootaaay was saying though.

But then he'd be ignoring me. Every once in a while I make a decent post.

So /u/falconarrow let on more about his spoiler for Battleground.
His teaser comment is
Today he made a new post https://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCir...spoiler_i_was_talking_about_for_battleground/
Who is back?!?
The Undertaker
That is probably the dumbest direction they could go with
Lesnar
Brock is by far the hottest babyface they have, and putting him against Undertaker would basically force fans to boo him or just not react.

So much truth in this post.

Yeah, but when you try to get a rise out of people you make it halfway obvious that you're messing around. #FnP

Except for people who post tipping threads I don't use the ignore list. But I always craft my posts with the intent of ending up on the ignore lists of shitheads.

Shit I was sincere earlier about wrasslers and go no-sold, sell my shit!
I'm not being serious about selling it. But I'll tell ya what. I'll make a bigger effort to be more sincere. I can't see how that would be a bad thing for a community. So I'll try to lead by example. I can feel it in my bones.

You guys whine too much. Stop whining.
I blame whining on CM Punk.

That reminds me, Danny Bryan's book comes out next week. Most of us will read it, I am sure. Who's getting the Day One edition?

Dumb idea all around.Brock is by far the hottest babyface they have, and putting him against Undertaker would basically force fans to boo him or just not react.
I don't know, it seems to me like
it'll end with him attacking both, which leads to either a world title rematch at Summerslam or a multiman match then, which could be good.
It's not like he doesn't have reason to attack both. For the last month both+Heyman have shittalked him and Kane to Kane, pissing Kane off in the process. And now Kane's out of the picture because of Brock and Seth. I've seen stupider ways to bring people back, at least this makes sense if it happens.

Hey guys, the G1 thread made me curious as to what's going on in the wrestling thread and lo and behold it's the same old monthly song and dance.
To be frank, this thread is like a perfect allegory for the WWE. Total shitshow most of the time, and people complain constantly, but it's never going to change and no one ever just leaves. No matter how much people complain about the general snarky tone, the outright trolling, allegations of people setting each other up for one-liners in an IRC chat, the pining over a general asshole of a member who went on Reddit to try and get people to harass Sandman and Bronson, etc. it's not going to make a damn bit of difference because every argument will just boil down to "opinions" and "diverse tastes" and that'll be the end of it.
Personally, the ignore list doesn't go far enough, and I'm not interested in installing a Chrome extension just to make the thread readable. There is nothing happening in wrestling right now that's worth putting up with this place in order to discuss it. I've pretty much accepted that this community isn't for me anymore, and probably never will be.
This is the heart of the issue and I don't know if it could be said any better. I imagine this is going to piss at least one person off, but when one of the most prominent members of the community has openly admitted he "enjoys upsetting people", it's a small wonder this kind of behavior is not only encouraged, it's allowed.Personally, I won't use ignore lists because I don't want to shield myself from opinions I may disagree with.

I promise you, Stone Cold will NEVER wrestle again. I'll shit in my hat if it happens. He is donezo.

"Pre-order Daniel Bryan's book today and get the Ring of Honor Prologue chapter free"
All this whining wouldn't have happened if Lesnar was still champ

Guys, confession time.
I bought tickets to a Kacey Musgrave concert. I've spent more on Kacey Musgrave than i have WWE. No regrets
I've never heard of who that is. Let me check...
Are you going to the Lilith Fair? She seems perfect for it. Does that thing even exist anymore?

Musgraves's great. Girl wrote a pro-LGBT hit song and didn't get blackballed from country for doing it, and celebrated the Supreme Court's marriage equality ruling harder than basically anybody in music that ain't Miley. One of the nicest people in the industry

It warms my heart to see Styles being on people's top five. He deserves it.
He's probably the best wrestler in the world. Wouldn't be surprised if WWE gives him a blank check when his New Japan contract expires.

He was handily my wrestler of the year last year at the Third Annual Carnies awards. I just don't know if he can reach the highs he did last year, but every match can change everything. He's pretty great.
TNA was absolutely going to kill him.

I see Styles stealing the show at the G1 to protect his spot as Wrestler of the Year. It's like the moment he went to NJPW, a fire got lit under his tights. Dude been phenomenal *no pun*.
