Jericho has done a lot of good things in terms of providing financial assistance to wrestlers in need, not to mention everything he did for Tazz Dan in his final months.
But unfortunately he’s been exposed as an asshole this year. First he had Trump Jr on his pod which, whatever, I can buy Jericho being one of those guys who is politically naive and not realizing that giving someone like that a platform at all is potentially damaging, no matter if you’re trying to be “fair” to everyone. But then he was caught liking All Lives Matter tweets when the protests started, and supposedly someone in AEW gave him a talking to. And now he’s out with Fozzy doing live concerts with crowds that have no masks or social distancing.....and he seems to be defensive on Twitter when people call him out of it. Not good. |

I'm not a memorbilia/collector type but for those that are it sounds like Brandi Rhodes is the hardest to get action figure at Walmarts so far because they made more of the guys than her.

I get the feeling Jericho is one of those people who goes into “fuck it” mode when drunk and does stupid things. And he gets drunk a lot.

I like Sammy Gueverra a lot, but gimmicked chair or no gimmicked chair, the way he threw that chair at Matt Hardy's head was super reckless. He fast balled that thing. What's the gimmicked chair suppose to look like? I'm assuming it's not suppose to fold up and Matt takes the bump on the seat of the chair, but the chair Sammy threw, didnt fold. It just hit Matt with the top of the back of the chair.
So brutal. I'm stunned he threw it like that. |

Supposedly he panicked and rushed that spot. Him throwing a chair at Hardy was meant to happen but Hardy was also supposed to have enough time to brace and protect himself.
The chair he was meant to throw was one of those regular black fold up steel chairs that are lighter and folds up easier. The chair he threw instead was heavier and more sturdier which is why it didn't fold even after it nailed Hardy right on the head. Him chucking it as hard as he did just made that whole botched spot worse for Hardy. |

Also i dont know if it was the same show, but during the Allin vs Moxley match. Darby bounces off the ropes and does a coffin ( throw )... Throws himself backwards in Moxley and the back of his head collides with Dean's face and you could hear how vicious this sounded lol.

Problem was Sammy screwed up everything on his side of the spot. He didn't bother to properly set the chair even if it was heavier nor paid attention to see if Hardy was ready or not for it. |

After the first or second Dynamite, I read people saying "wow Jericho looks great."
I'm still not sure which show they were actually watching. Last edited by screech; 08-10-2020 at 07:59 AM. Reason: He can still go, but his face looks terrible anymore |

I said this when he was doing New Japan and someone on here told me he was purposely going for a old school wrestler look or something.

I think Jericho is going to end up chipping away at his legacy. He has looked awful (only 3 years older than Edge for context), out of shape and like a cheap version of his former self.
Now he is making stupid decisions outside of wrestling and comes off looking reckless and careless. He was always so polished and had such a great image inside WWE. It’s strange seeing him look so cheap and feckless now in spite of his obvious talent |

one may be so inclined to add his lack of gorm in addition to his lack of feck.

I do love a bit of gorm too, but doesn’t apply here unfortunately!
Feckless is a lack of character or being irresponsible. Gormless is lacking intelligence. Gorm is def better though and has history on the forum. Missed opportunity!! |

"feckless" and "gormless" have been used interchangeably for longer than we've been around. They both describe a lack of aptitude in an individual.
They are essentially synonymous. |

Don't apologise to me pal. Save it for when you next encounter any of your former teachers or whoever was responsible for your failure to interpret a dictionary definition.

Always do the leg work mate.
Look up their etymology. Look at the synonym lists for both, read full descriptions from multiple sources. A lack of attention, initiative and ability is key to both definitions and over the years they have been used so interchangeably that they are tied together. Gormless began roughly as "without attention/heed" and feckless began as "ineffective" basically. So yeah, pretty much the same shit different day. |

Looked at synonym list to check too, at no point did they appear on the same one. I looked at a lot of different sources too.
Just because two words are interchanged in a coloquial fashion doesn’t mean they should be or that they are being used correctly. There is a clear difference between a perceived lack of intelligence and an irresponsible/careless nature Anyway, the AEW thread probably isn’t the best one for this discussion, so will leave it there. |

Seems AEW might have released three members of their roster based on recent updates made to their website's roster page.
Two of the three were involved or associated with the wave of allegations that swept through the wrestling scene a couple months ago.
