@WrestleOps To be fair, this just sounds like AI-assisted data analysis, and they were presumably already investigating who "resonates" where and whatever, now they can just do it faster. However if they're asking ChatGPT to "write Raw" then that's a very different prospect 😂

TKO President Mark Shapiro is wanting the embrace of AI in WWE to be a “major priority,” he explained during a Town Hall meeting this week: “Nick Khan and Triple H are using AI for storylines with the WWE. What’s resonating? What superstars are resonating? In what pockets of the country are they resonating? That helps us with, obviously, our content, our editorial, our creative, our mapping, our touring, and of course, maximizing revenue and getting our product out to the fans most in need of it.” (via @POSTwrestling)

@JunkyardAkiyama Maybe because of the blatant contempt they have for their fans, extortionate ticket prices, openly stating they care about nothing but money, giving people about 30 minutes of actual product in a 3 hour show...just a few ideas.

Why do people pretend to hate wwe?

@LordBear626210 @TonyMac67s "Under the leadership of Zack Polanski (elected September 2025), the party has increasingly pushed for the legalisation of all drugs, including Class A substances like heroin and cocaine..." From the Green Party website. Legalisation of Class A sunstances 🤷‍♂️

@SamSmith1467879 @TonyMac67s They're not talking about that though are they. This isn't a new concept, many countries have this model and drug use rates drop. Please look into what they're actually saying and not reforms mad version

Hit the nail on the head. The stench of entitlement is off the charts. Yearly medicals, weekly alcohol and drug testing, performance reviews and more. Just to work in construction. And these pissed up charlatans are making life Changing decisions.

@jacksonhinklle China is communist in theory but 100% capitalist in practice. It works though. I was there recently and the public transpory was second to none, everywhere was clean, tech connections made everything a breeze. Made my return to the UK an eye opener that's for sure!

🇨🇳 If Communism doesn't work, then WHY is China the MOST advanced country on Earth?

@Avaaz I hate to break it to you but this isn't Big Bad Reform kicking grannies out onto the street. All party councils have records of doing this. My city Labour council pulled funding for two care homes and a vulnerable adults respite centre this year alone.

“I just hope nobody votes for Reform.” Meet 93-year-old Dorothy - she could be forced out of her care home if her Reform-led council closes it. But ahead of the local elections in England, she's speaking out - urging people to vote and stop Reform winning more seats. Watch and share:

@callmeMaharani By that logic any service provider is a parasite. You're paying for a shelter. Do you object to paying for groceries? Or for clothes? How do you make your money out of interest?

Your landlord isn’t your friend. He’s a legal parasite living off your paycheck.

@WrestleOps Given how much contracts matter to WWE/TKO that doesn't mean much.

Triple H has signed a new multi-year employment contract with WWE to remain in charge as Chief Content Officer. (via PWlnsider)

@FirstNameJ0hn I don't think you can consider it a standalone promotion when it's owned by one of the others in the list. It's not really a promotion, more a subsidiary.

Is it safe to say that AAA is a viable 4th wrestling promotion now?

@WrestleOps Ah yes, 2015. That peak time when WWE was famously great 🤣

Nick Khan defended the WWE product from online criticism during a Town Hall meeting today. He characterized the criticism as coming from a “vocal minority,” citing how Night 1 of WrestleMania 42 was less well received in-comparison to Night 2 of the show. He went on to read multiple messages or tweets from 2015 criticizing the product and appeared to use those examples to argue such criticism has historically proven to be unreliable.

@dr72w_david Well the entire Labour party is full of incompetent idiots & career politicians with no experience of business or the world stage so they have to stick with him. Who'd replace him? Lammy? Raynor? Reeves? There'd be riots! It would be the Conservatives all over again.

The Labour Party would be bonkers to replace this man. A decent, caring PM who has had a lot of bad luck. Get through the midterm bloody nose, like every other PM, and then we fight for Election 2029 agains the racists, Deform UK and the openly hostile MSM #Labour #10YearKeir

@FredThomasUK Do you have any cards to play aside from "Not Reform"? Focus on the mess that is your own party rather than smearing opponents. Why should anyone vote Labour? All you seem capable of saying is "we're not Reform" while the Green party hoover up your voter base.

It has now been five days since The Times and Hope Not Hate uncovered vile racist, antisemitic, and Islamophobic comments allegedly made by Reform's candidate in Ham Ward. Yet there has been silence from Reform, locally and nationally.

@ShaykhSulaiman Maybe the government need to start saving. Handing away billions on foreign aid, giving out more welfare than they collect in income tax, giving themselves inflation-busting pay rises (on top of ludicrously generous expenses)... Get your own house in order before lecturing us!

JUST IN; STARMER SAYS PEOPLE NEED TO START SAVING & PREPARE FOR CRISIS "people might change their habits, where they go on holiday this year, what they're buying in the supermarket, that sort of thing."

@LeonardBriscoe3 If you believe one country that generates less than 1% of the world's carbon emissions can "save humanity" then you are breathtakingly naive. This is a global problem that requires a global solution. Until all countries come together the UK is essentially pissing into the wind.

A price worth paying g to save humanity, we are leading the world. x.com/JamesMelville/…

@big_business_ Peak "well, we have to give him something to do" booking 🙄

“As from today, the Oba Femi Open Challenge will commence… Anybody back there who wants to prove himself, step up. You’re not just stepping in with any man, you’re stepping in with Ruler Oba Femi.” OBA FEMI ANNOUNCES OBA FEMI CHALLENGE AND WILL HAVE A MATCH EVERY WEEK #WWERAW

@WrestleTalk_TV So dude slates AEW and Tony Khan at every opportunity, but wants him to swoop in and do someone he likes a favour after WWE's shitty business practices? AEW need to stop taking WWE's castoffs. Their roster is too big already.

Bully Ray says that Tony Khan should give Zoey Stark five minutes on AEW Dynamite to 'tell her story' following her WWE release: "If you're Tony Khan, and you invite Zoey Stark in, what's the first thing you allow her to do? Here you go sister, here's a microphone, you've got five minutes. Go tell your story, go make people love you, and if you tell your real story, not only will they love you for your determination, and your passion, and your drive, but they will hate the WWE for letting you go. "It's right there on a silver platter for Tony. You don't have to do any work. Wait 90 days, sign the girl to a contract, end of story. And Zoey is good in the ring, she'd be good for your women's division. "(AEW) is the perfect company to do it in, but if you're gonna allow her to go out there, and give her five minutes, and in that five minutes people emotionally connect with Zoey, give her a standing ovation, 'thank you Zoey', whatever it is, you've gotta follow it up. "You've got to give Zoey time to prove that her knee is 1000%. She talked the talk, now she has to show you what she can do in the ring with her new knee, and let the world understand the WWE should have never released me. "Zoey Stark before her injury wasn't knocking the world on it's ass, she wasn't doing anything super great or awesome, I know that, you know that, she knows that too. But to get hurt in the ring, and not to be given an opportunity after you came back, I'm sorry. Every once in a while in this industry, compassion has to come into play. "The right thing to do would have been let her have at least one more match, and if you weren't gonna do that, then the right thing to do was a phone call from a familiar voice, at least expressing thank you for being here, for trying so hard, I'm sorry things didn't work out, that's the right thing to do. "At the end of the promo what she can say is 'all I wanted to do was see Triple H one more time and say thank you for allowing me to get back in the ring, but I never had that opportunity, so tonight I'd like to say, Tony Khan, thank you for allowing me to get back in a wrestling ring'. Dude, instant babyface." (Busted Open Radio)

@BBCNews I suppose it depends if the intent was to profit from it. If the girlfriend was intending to use the relationship to raise her profile and sell pictures of her tits then fair enough. But if everyone was staying in their lane then I don't see the issue.

@Jordan_MG_ I agree with you in principle, there are far bigger problems in this country. But you're naive if you think that none of those massive spends are impacted by immigration.

Blaming migrants for the UK economy is like blaming your phone bill while ignoring your mortgage. £400bn (welfare) £250bn (NHS) £120bn (education) ~£5bn (asylum) That’s <1% of spending. Let that sink in.

@IrisDuane Doesn't your party want to fully legalise all drugs? You're fine with people shooting up heroin while they munch their lunchtime sandwich but have an issue with people having a drink with dinner?

When I used to work 15 hour shifts in a pub, had I dared to have a drink myself I would’ve been sent home and likely fired. In a pub!!!! That was for just over £8 and hour!!! We’re paying MPs almost £100,000 a year!!! They can stop acting like petulant babies.

@KarlTurnerMP @RachelReevesMP "...has a brain the size of several planets." Grow up. This kind of snivelling bootlicking is why Starmer and Reeves will take you all down with them when you finally allow people to cast their votes.

.@RachelReevesMP has a brain the size of several planets. She’s also emotionally intelligent. Kind, considerate caring. She wrote to Stella (our daughter) after major reconstructive surgery and checked in on her. Stella is proud of her being the first woman chancellor.
