Had a dude at the Eaton Centre ask if I wanted to do a bible study and I replied “No thanks, I believe in Joe Hendry”. The gentleman was not amused.

@wrestlin_wasabi @_kennythoughts Agreed man. It’s those people who are a disgrace to this sport man.

@ArcadeRegiment @_kennythoughts Of course they do. But it's hard to keep faceless accounts with 15 followers in check, unfortunately

Here’s something not many of you will want to admit. What he did? Doesn’t justify death threats. Nor does it justify anyone getting shit due to guilt by association. And here’s an even BIGGER one. Just because I’m saying this doesn’t mean I’m defending him or supporting him. He did wrong. He knows that and he apologized. People are too quick to go from 0-100 and become even worse people than what the offender even did. Wrestling fans need to be fucking better.

@RJCity1 RJ, you’re gonna love Google Reviews and Yelp. Such fun reads!

Imagine if every job was like wrestling. Working at a restaurant, opening twitter and seeing dozens of people saying “that waiter was a fucking asshole”.

@wrestlin_wasabi @_kennythoughts I will agree a good portion yes, absolutely in bad faith and need to be corrected. The others with legitimate concern are just looking for accountability and follow up action to show to not got that far. Personally, I think those making threats ALSO need accountability as well.

@ArcadeRegiment @_kennythoughts Right, but the thing is, the ones sending threats don't care about the accountability. They just want to be hateful

@_kennythoughts Hey, not attacking man. Just wanted clarification that it went both ways as I only saw more focus on accountability the threats than the initial act. Both horrendous. Threatening someone who had no part of this is horrendous. I will agree all fans need to do better. 🫡

@ArcadeRegiment I literally say that in my post do I not?

@KC_4191 @TMZ This. Samantha has done absolutely nothing wrong.

@TMZ People need to stop targeting Samantha and go after the actual person that said it. Which is Ricochet. Leave Samantha out of it

😳 Ricochet's wife, Samantha Irvin, is targeted with death threats amid the MS controversy. tmz.me/0eYTlYs

Me: *Makes articulated point about comments and never mentions accusatory claims* Sickos: “You inferred it in a roundabout way”. You cannot make this shit up. I thought hockey twitter was dumb but MAN, wrestling twitter is making a solid ass case. Not a rational thought at all.

@AceOfJoshi @AceOfJoshi Tried to have a civil conversation but you’re too busy liking posts of people trying to get me in a “gotcha”. “Inferred in a roundabout way”. Hilarious. You aren’t ready for civilized debates. Enjoy your tinfoil conspiracies. lol

@AceOfJoshi Not everything is a conspiracy with WWE/AEW, people on ALL sides need to see this. This was a person who made a shitty decision, escalated it to where now multiple people are making shitty decisions when this ALL could’ve been avoided had accountability been taken earlier.

98% of the people being the loudest are just doing so because Ricochet doesn't work in WWE. It's been that way since he left to sign with AEW. They don't give a shit about the victims. They also believe that the "media" is covering for the company the idiots pretend to hate.

@dubq @AceOfJoshi I “inferred it in a roundabout way” is a lot of alphabet soup to say “I can’t find it”. A gargantuan stretch of I’ve ever seen one. You can’t find it because it doesn’t exist. Thanks for playing.

@ArcadeRegiment @AceOfJoshi You inferred it in a roundabout way, justifying the retaliation on people like Samantha. A wordsmith, you ain't.

@SeanRossSapp Ok then genuine question, if you think they should’ve posted it then that implies a disconnect between you and the team. So I’m just curious on what actions will be taken going forward on stories like this? Initial post then updates? Seems maybe the solution to appease all sides

Lmao what? I said they should have posted it. Nobody is mad about that. They are pretending to be mad about it. A bunch of people who swear I'm an unreliable hack all of a sudden care about what I tweet or what we cover? No. You all love creating peripheral villains.

@dubq @AceOfJoshi Please point to exactly (and I want you to read that word CAREFULLY) where I said that. If you cannot, then with all due respect, please remain quiet on the topic of putting words in my mouth.

@ArcadeRegiment @AceOfJoshi That's an excuse to threaten someone with death or bodily harm? Get a fucking life bro.

@ProtectTonyKhan Yes. I’ve done the MS Walk multiple times along with raise money. Only thing “performative” is you stealing this word for word from another account.

Everyone who defended the woman with MS from Ricochet…. Did you donate to her? Did you follow her? Did you support her struggle with MS in any way or donate to MS charities? Ok all of the outrage was just performative. Got it.

@NobodysRebel @_queerauntie @SeanRossSapp You’re doing exactly what Ricochet did. You made a gross and disgusting personal comment instead of actual criticism. Do better. This is not ok.

@_queerauntie @SeanRossSapp But you're a fat dyke paid to make aew look good like you're boss voke Ross sapp

Hey @SeanRossSapp I saw the Ricochet apology before I ever saw the drama. I wasn’t even traveling and completely missed it on my algorithm.

@CoreyBrennanFF Respectfully, I disagree. The conversation could’ve been used to teach a lesson like “There’s responses to generate heat and then there’s gross personal responses. Be better than this”. A lesson to hold wrestlers accountable on how to use social media.

Correct. Because adding another voice that says "yeah, that was a dumb tweet and he shouldn't have made it in the first place" isn't really gonna add anything to the conversation at this point.

@PWPNation @Kephfas “Defending the right to make fun of anyone for anything” is objectively one of the stupidest sentences I’ve read in my entire life. What “right” is that?! You cannot be serious. If you are, I feel very sorry for you.

@Kephfas You should see what people are saying to me for simply defending the right to make fun of anyone for anything. I can only imagine what they’re going thru.

People really giving Ricochet and Samantha death threats over Ricochets disgraceful comments? Two wrongs make a right? Don’t do this shit. Just move on atp. The IWC really is mentally ill.
