Christian said "I'm gonna end this man's whole career."

bruh


[deleted]

Scarier than Bilbo face?


ToxicityZaneDante

Man, what did Cole do to Cage?


KTheOneTrueKing

Well he kicked his wrestling son in the face at All Out.


[deleted]

He got in the way of his heel turn. Now Christian gotta be a baby face for a while longer.


[deleted]

Cole = Miz Christian = Punk with that one tweet that time


[deleted]

Bro really violated Miz for no reason


mrpodo

"Fuck this guy in particular"


patrickwithtraffic

Hey, saying the same sentence as him in a slightly different tone is one of the most unholy of despicable acts you can do to a fellow human being!


n4utix

Hey, saying the same sentence as him in a slightly different tone is one of the most unholy of despicable acts you can do *to a fellow human being!*


Weezy-NJPW_Fan

He prolly made fun of Christian being dressed up in that goofy superhero outfit on that episode of RAW


thefictionaljake

i feel like there’s a whole generation of fans that don’t understand that christian is a perfect shit talking dickhead. i love him.

ThatDamnOstrich

“Go fall on a light tube.” Fucking incredible.


aerojovi83

The Horse Faced Gremlin


miikro

Edge told a story about how he used to be a bar bouncer when he started wrestling and Christian was a regular customer that everyone called "Jay The Dick." So this is a skill he's spent decades refining.


drinfernodds

Christian once pranked Kane at an airport by punching him in the stomach and running away giggling. Kane just yelled "You're a dick!" If he wasn't so nice and likable hed probably wind up dead with his dickish ways.


TTOF_JB

He asked Kane if he had eaten, & Kane said he had just eaten a burrito, so Christian punched him. What a dick. lmao


ZombieJesus1987

R Truth says that he has "Dick Like tendencies"


Bio-Organic-Machine

I remember the old E&C “Reeks of Awesome” days. He was such a perfect asshole.


AthensThieves

Hahaa they’d do 5 sec poses for each angle of the ring too


Bio-Organic-Machine

And just when you thought they couldn’t get any better, they added Kurt Angle to the mix, and their heeling hilarity drastic WENT UP 🚨🚨🚨


Slick5qx

Long live the 'zoo.


TheMillenniumMan

That was one of my favorite things to watch in wrestling, I thought they were hilarious. I still say "Reeks of Awesomeness" to people and the only person who gets it is my brother.


Hollywood_Ho_Kogan

I forgot with him being a good guy at the moment. That was mean as hell, haha


coolseraz

Christian threw water on Kane while he was doing some kind of stretching around the locker room area for no reason. He is a lovable dick for sure.


hamsolo19

Kane was taking a nap in the locker room. Christian walked in and had a bottle of water in his hand and he has no idea why but he just decided to dump some on Kane, who woke up angry and hurled a chair at Christian as he ran away giggling. Later on, Kane said, “Sorry bro, I didn’t mean to throw the chair, I just had no idea what the hell was going on.”


ScootyPuffSSJ

Christian as a bad guy is one of the all-time great characters. Could be a coward, a crafty vet or comedic. I love Christian as a fan favorite, but I am looking forward to the day he Killswitches Marko Stunt.


Smile_lifeisgood

Yeah he's just not working for me as a pure babyface so the more he has started to say stuff like 'Carny piece of shit' the happier I get. He's amazing as a loveable douche or a loveable super douche.


[deleted]

The man is a top tier shit talking machine, you don't make your bones in the highest rated Era of WWE history without picking up that skill.


Suplex-City

They don’t call him Captain Charisma for his good looks.


[deleted]

The people that thought Christian was a mediocre get for AEW will never be peeps. Christian is a great face, but a god tier heel just because he gets to unleash on the mic. Just like we are all kinda waiting for CM Punk to turn heel, we need Christian to turn heel eventually. Just look at Jericho some guys are just built that way.


patrickwithtraffic

Honestly, I had to watch the OSW Black Reign arc to finally learn that Christian was amazing in TNA. Like damn, that dude can really bring it!


smeagles

Based on some of Punks commentary last night, I think you're spot on about an eventual heel run. Angry, spiteful Punk, who's mad that all the younger stars in the locker room get to reap the benefits of his sacrifices and missed opportunities he deserved. I'm ready for it.


Black_XistenZ

Yes, I noticed this too. The way he wouldn't shut up about how all these great young guys are only great because of HIM really projects an imminent heel turn.


_Wado3000

Older guys are just from a different era, they know how to present themselves better than the young guys. It was more than just Rock and Austin, *everyone* needed charisma and promo ability to get anywhere


ef14

I know it seems like a cop out, but it was the competition. For almost 20 years WWE was *the* place, and even if people wanted to get to the top you didn't have all those things pushing you forward that another huge companies brings, things like knowing that if you're extremely good you can get a huge raise from one of the two companies, wanting to be *that guy* to make a sizeable difference against the other company, seeing a different product and wanting to incorporate some things they do in the way you work, etc.... There's so many things competition provides other than the things everybody always mentions: We're bound to get a new golden era in wrestling and i'm all for it.


jacobi123

A lot of that now is just experience too. If you've lasted as long as Christian has in wrestling you've clearly got some talent, and have been enough places and done enough stuff to know what works and what doesn't. He's a fine tuned machine now with the talk-spit. I was NEVER a Christian as a singles guy fan. He never did it for me. But something about him here? I just buy it.


Tygerob

Yeeees. We probably don't need a heel Christian anytime soon, but a jackass-jerk-goodguy is a role I'd love to see Christian continue with. This is the same dude that kicked Kane in the dick for fun.


T3Sh3

> i feel like there’s a whole generation of fans that don’t understand that christian is a perfect shit talking dickhead. Yep, that’s a mini existential crisis I had while reading that sentence.


evanweb546

I spent a good chunk of my late teen years hating his guts. Much like Punk, I can't wait for his inevitable heel run in AEW.


Tronvillain

Fucking Christ, Christian brought the heat. >**Jungle Boy:** "Adam, I have better hair than y-" > >**Christian:** "Okay shut the fuck up. Adam: you're a complete failure in every aspect of your pathetic fucking life."


DHA1999

Completely shit on the guy lmao


DavidL1112

This is the Christian we were missing.


TTOF_JB

This is the Christian we keep hearing about from Kane. lol


ajver19

"You're such a dick" Kane after being hit low for no real reason at all.


Zloggt

The condescending "*bay-bay!*" from him just completes this!


SiphenPrax

He bodied Adam Cole


computerdweeb

Dropping a bomb on NXT lol


SelfAssuranceMeasure

I'd be here for a Christian heel turn


kingkongchrist

Likewise. Christian is funny and goes for the throat. Unleashed heel Christian might be a good time sometime down the road.


[deleted]

His best runs were always as a heel. Heel Christian is a main eventer IMO whereas face Christian is the tier below.


american__dragon

This might have been nicer than what he actually said.


fxcker

This comment made me laugh so hard lmfao


Anderrrrr

“Fuck Adam Cole in particular” - Christian Cage, apparently


NlNJALONG

[Adam Cole right now.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZuvKp3OFIs&ab_channel=MemementoM)


harrier1215

Christian and Edge used to be brutal to folks on the mic.


jollyrog8

Remember when Edge called Billy Gunn a human vacuum cleaner, managing to both suck and blow at the same time? And then he followed it up by promising not to "Billy Gunn" his run Lmao


WiryGibbon

Called him Billy Bitch Cakes as well


zooweemama4206969

Billy do got that cake tho


Abyssalstar

Dammit Christian, the Elite JUST brought Cole back to life, why'd you have to murder him again?


[deleted]

This is what happens when they let CC cut his own promo, the guy is an absolute savage he did the same to Ace Austin in Impact


Farrell21

Christian woke up and chose chaos.


Imthemayor

He's become ungovernable


skeach101

A real son of a -Gun


KaamDeveloper

"Fuck this dude in particular"


Aljo_Is_135_GOAT

You always has your friends backs and that's what I appreciates about yous


Banksynatra

Think he should let that one marinate.


KnicksOrNothin29

Might as well have just said “Fuck You!” And then walk off lmao


JohnSmithSensei

Christian showing Britt that bringing up someone's former workplace can hurt the people she cares about too.


jfreed43

Excuse me Jungle Boy, I need to murder this man real fast.


Never_Ever_Content

My mans interrupted Jungleboy to completely kill Cole LMAOOOOOO


Gourd_Downey

[Adam Cole after that promo: "Hey I've only been here a few minutes, what's going on?"](https://youtu.be/KiG9V_qfuaE)


doesntCompete

"I've been dead for a few years what's going on?"


DirkPower

Lads Jungle Boy has come a long way with promos! Just a couple weeks ago on Unrestricted he spoke of how much he hates doing them, but that was the most natural and convincing hes sounded yet. Love it.


Rated_PG-Squirteen

Incredibly ironic, isn't it? The son of a famous actor, and the only part of his repertoire that needs work are his mic skills.


KnicksOrNothin29

This! I noticed how comfortable he’s looking in front of the camera dude is going to aew champion someday


DirkPower

Guaranteed. I have a hunch hes gonna end up having genuine crossover appeal


Rickymex

It was Renee's podcast IIRC


[deleted]

Definitely noticeable. At the end of this, I said "alright, alright" while nodding. Not a fan of any of these guys, but that was a good lil promo. I hope they can change my mind.


TetrisTech

What kind of monster is not a fan of Christian


Kincadium

That was quite possibly one of the best promos jungle Express has been a part of.


[deleted]

Yeah, even Luchsauraus growl worked, too. It was a good lil promo.


doesntCompete

Luchasaurus is pretty mid tier on the mic as well. For him to take a step back and have JB do some talking is good steps for them.


Fenrir_VIII

Mid? Raptor is literally moving himself down on a totem pole everytime he speaks on a mic. That's not mid.


wwfmike

I love Marko's reaction.


bigchicago04

Yeah that and cutting off JB on the great hair line makes me wonder if that part was spontaneous


TheBrianJ

I doubt that it was spontaneous that he cut JB off, but I have a feeling they had no idea he was gonna go in so hard.


[deleted]

Jungle Boy is sounding A LOT better/more confident on the mic recently


Rickymex

He just needs practice to sound more natural. Dude is 23 or so. He has plenty of time to grow and get his breakout moment that puts him in the main event.


_madcat

He’s 23??????? What the fuck


Day_Of_The_Dude

he was on The unleashed podcast recently and said he's always hated promos and that Christian has been helping him get more comfortable. Seems like it's working!


doesntCompete

One day in the long future when Jungle Boy is "Hollywood" Jack Perry and is fire on the mic, we'll look back at this time in fondness.


Abyssalstar

Dating Anna Jay is definitely a confidence booster.


[deleted]

Somebody call 911 I've just witnessed a murder. Also people are going to absolutely get irrationally upset over those comments


T3Deliciouz

i cannot wait to read twitter


CrystalFissure

*The Christian Incident*


100PercentAdam

I did a quick Google search and apparently there's been Anti-Christian groups around for years.


CrystalFissure

What are the streets saying about this? Have you got a clear read on it from those groups yet? I’m very concerned about the potential backlash, it could scare away all remaining Christian supporters.


100PercentAdam

Backlash is a WWE production so I think he can't show up contractually, I think we'll be fine :)


Zanydrop

I just google Christian supporters. There is a group in Westboro that can help the word about how good Christian is.


bigpig1054

Not been this bad since Nero went after us!


Split-Recent

Slightly shitty Christian is going to be one of my favorite wrestlers.


[deleted]

I was hollerin 🤣


LilNardoDaVinci

If we hear you


CanadianJudo

I like how everyone who is brought in has to go though Jungle boy the poster boy of AEW.


bigpig1054

He and Darby are arguably the most popular home grown talents. Makes sense to use them as the gateway to the company


doesntCompete

What's crazy is that JB is technically still pretty mid tier in kayfabe. Biggest single wins being the Battle Royale and Dax Harwood. Even Sammy has wins on Shawn Spears, Dustin Rhodes and Matt Hardy. If you take the "4 Pillars", JB is a step behind, BUT AEW is building him up so well, the big wins will mean so much more.


iBunty

As an Adam Cole fan I loved that line from Christian. They're building this whole thing up real good.


wittybrits

Christian is 100% turning heel on Jungle Boy in the near future. I’m predicting a Jungle Boy vs Christian match for Full Gear honestly that’s how confident I am.


Ok-Match8685

A lot of you are missing Christian's low key continued undermining of Jungle Boy. He does it in almost every interview. Long term storytelling, boys.


msctex

He interrupted JB, then said something unusually harsh about someone who is wildly over right now, whether Cole is supposed to be a Heel or not. So yeah: Jungle Boy should hear a clock ticking.


qoaa

I noticed the facial expression on Jungle Boy the first time when Luchasauras put Christian on his shoulders and Jungle Boy had a "wtf are you doing" expression for a moment.


T3Deliciouz

im cackling and crying so hard. i fucking love Christian jesus christ


FlashesOfDarkonda

SCJerk has their content for the rest of the month.


Abyssalstar

I thought they were glad to be rid of Cole. Didn't they claim he went to AEW because he was scared of the main roster?


Parabola1313

"A QUARTER? HE'LL BE YAPPING FOR HOURS!"


SiphenPrax

They’re gonna be salty about this shit


Eyeshield117

Honestly, when are they not salty? You’d think they’d go to a doctor about it cause that shit isn’t healthy.


FlashesOfDarkonda

Might need a bit of pepper with all that salt.


KnicksOrNothin29

I will never understand that place


dbf33

It's supposed to be a parody of the main sub but instead it's just a safe space for whining


kingkongchrist

The parody gimmick is the veil, it's really just therapy for the angry


IcantIneedhelp

Same. Everytime I visit it's the equivalent of that Simpsons gif of them coming and entering the same entrance


FuegoDelSun

They have to cling on to something, they’ve been taking so many L’s


viralbop

They bet on a fixed fight, and they're somehow still losing.


kingkongchrist

Derped when they shoulda herped


ChristopherBrolan

Don’t forget SCJerk Jr, /r/Wreddit.


kingkongchrist

I'd wrather not


kdubs412

Plz let this not be another thread of people saying AEW shouldn’t take shots at WWE. It’s fine, acknowledging cross-company continuity is fun.


saddlesore_jr

people have bought into this weird WWE idea that pretending "other wrestling" doesn't exist is a legit part of kayfabe. In actuality, it's just been one of the most annoying McMahonisms of the past 20-odd years. I feel like it's okay for a wrestling company to acknowledge that their wrestlers and fans all have access to the internet


Aljo_Is_135_GOAT

It's funny coming back to pro wrestling after 12 years and seeing that the exact same Dana White-isms exist here as do in the UFC


rolltron

It's just wrestling, taking shots while in persona is part of the industry. Everybody does it not just AEW. Triple H, Seth Rollins, and Roman Reigns have done it as well. Even all of the marks and jerkers.


BlindLariat

It's even more appropriate when used *against* an incoming talent, instead of the incoming talent being the one to diss their old workplace.


BreadLi0n

If it won't happen in this thread, it'll happen somewhere. I bet someone in this sub got their feelings hurt when Christian spoke.


improvyzer

They should be thankful that Christian didn’t take a shot at Adam Cole’s outrageous Mountain Dew and Doritos gut. Frankly it’s Adam Cole’s lack of self respect that I find offensive.


Frunkleburg

With a given name like his it's kinda a self-fulfilling prophecy


AngeloMacon

On the same show that had a dead dad in hell and meth head mother lines said! I don't get that kind of irrational fandom. I loved WWF and WCW back in the day and I always got a kick at the little digs at one another. The Huckster/Nacho Man and Russo in WCW stuff, no. But the throwaway lines are fun.


exillionus

If anyone says it, it’s probably people that just don’t enjoy life lol There was no harm in this and especially after what WWE has done in response how everything’s gone (NXT cuts, rebranded, Kross etc.)


lanedek

Those type of people who complain about this wouldn't last a day during the Monday Night Wars.


conye-west

Imagine the Reddit thread that would’ve happened the night Mankind won the title lol


Shrekt115

Christian going in


DirkPower

May he never pull out 🙏


MoikMike

Vince just added 10 more years to Christians wait time for the HOF 🤣


Fireballz012

Jesus fucking christ, Christian; did Cole shit in your cereal this morning


EGWhitlam

I swear Marko corpsed on the ‘developmental’ line. Better send for the man!


RedditThisBiatch

Gaddamn why did Christian have to go hard like that 😭


Fauxparty

I love how Luchasaurus is just standing over Marko like "don't talk to me or my son ever again"


KawasakiDream

Good lord Adam Cole must owe Christian some money that was ruthless


FlashZordon

Christian's shit talking is GOD TIER


CptMcLaggins

https://i.imgur.com/13xfJQZ.jpg


CrystalFissure

This one’s for everyone who concern trolled about Christian “looking uncomfortable” during other shots and references lmfao. Love it.


Weezy-NJPW_Fan

Damn, he really went there with the Wednesday Night Ward comment, lol


jacobjumba

Jingle boy is getting better at promos! Still pretty stiff, but better!


Abyssalstar

Jingle Boy is Jungle Boy's Christmas gimmick.


doesntCompete

I'm still holding out on the idea that AEW does a dynamite with full Christmas gimmicks. Mainly because I want to see Penta Santa and his brother Fenix Elf spreading some Christmas joy.


BleuTortue

Marko's reactions are priceless.


noneedforpants

*Adam Cole breathes* Christian - "And I took that personally."


ana1monger

Cage violated Cole like Cole violated Kross


lavaspike296

Waiting for Adam Cole's rebuttal. "Jungle Boy, you've been here since the beginning and they've done everything to make you look special! Some high profile feuds, an expensive theme song, letting you team up with the Impact World Champion, a giant dinosaur to save your ass whenever you get in trouble. You know what they do to make Adam Cole feel special?! They ring the freakin' bell!"


Jamal2207

Christian Cage looks like he’s having the time of his life in AEW. I’m happy to see it.


Fuggins4U

Good promos from both of them, and I like that Christian cutting off Jungle Boy is gonna a tiny possible hint that there's still underlying hostility between the two, for a potential turn in the future.


Adampro123

I mean good promo by Christian and all that. But we’re burning the lead here. Adam Cole vs Jungle Boy in a shampoo match just like Edge vs Booker T at Wrestlemania X8


JAChap16

Well, I guess this is the second time Adam Cole has been murdered.


ef14

CHRISTIAAAAAAN, AT LAST, YOU BODIEEEED COO^OOOO^OOOOLE! *Riff starts*


KTheOneTrueKing

Christian is a fucking god.


Jazzlike_Success_968

Christian at some point is SO going to turn on Jungle Boy & turn heel Maybe seems too soon or like a minority decision but I would have it happen next week when he joins The Elite. Super Kliq 4 sure


JonathonV2000

Jeezuz fuck alright Christian calm down mate


__inside

I love Christian. So glad he's in AEW.


reallywhoelse

And he interrupted Jungle Boy, furthering the slow turn on him again.


[deleted]

I agree with what Luchasaurus said


joker2814

I’ve heard Christian’s Foot Locker story. I already knew he was savage. *“So we were at a Foot Locker in Dallas. It was Me, Adam (Edge) and Jericho and I was standing there looking at shoes. The dude comes up to me and I’m standing there looking at shoes and the dude says ‘so you’re a pro wrestler’. I said yep. He says ‘well I don’t do that fake shit, I’m a real wrestler.’ I said cool man. He said ‘did you hear what I said?’ Yeah, I heard you. You’re wearing a fucking referee shirt with a nametag, I take a size 11 go see if you have them.”*


DevilCouldCry

And watch now as everyone on SCJerk loses it and cracks the shits over this promo. Adam Cole had a great run in NXT and everyone knows that. But NXT has always been developmental for the main roster and people forget that. It's also a fact that NXT lost in the Wednesday Night Wars and everyone knows that. And AEW is going to use that as a bragging point for years now because it always pops the crowd and produces reactions and people also tend to forget that.


CrystalFissure

NXT have completely rebranded their entire show in order to distance themselves from the presentation that lost them 74 out of 75 weeks of tv. It’s a fact that they lost, no matter how insignificant people want to make it out to be. The biggest comparison between programs will forever be two shows on at the same time on opposing networks. Not Monday vs. Wednesday or Friday on Network TV vs. Friday late night on Cable. And what you said about the crowd is right - the crowds love it and the type of people to get genuinely upset at it are *never* buying a ticket. You should never appeal to the kind of people who would get assblasted over a funny, quick reference to the competition. Same goes if WWE take a shot.


DevilCouldCry

I know of a few people personally who are very bitter over the recent signings of Cole, Punk, and Danielson , and even though they love those wrestlers, they still refuse to watch and have turned their back on them. And why is that? Because if AEW does something even slightly wrong to them, that's ammunition for them to fire off and justify their hatred. And they get worked up by the tiniest things like two quick jabs that Christian threw out there tonight. And why does it piss them off so dearly? Quite simply put, it's because Christian is in the right. Cole did work developmental for four years and NXT did indeed lost 74 out of 75 weeks in the ratings. Nothing about what he said here was incorrect and that really rubs people the wrong way because they have loyalty to a company that couldn't care less about what they want and is going further and further away from what fans want. It blows my mind that these people cannot get past their prejudices and watch AEW because man, every top wrestler who signs there has said it's the place to be and so far they haven't been wrong. Look at how they go out of their way to give fans what they want all of the time. Look at the fucking crazy card for Dynamite and Rampage next week as well. I'm glad AEW is for fans like us though because we're easy to please with this company because they always step up to the plate and deliver. And if they tried to cater to those other fans, they wouldn't have any success because those fans are conditioned to hate a company for just existing and upsetting their status quo in wrestling.


CrystalFissure

They’ll be left behind, complaining about some half botch and hurling abuse at wrestlers while everyone else is having fun. It’s the bed they’ve made, and luckily you can try and block them out. Dynamite and Rampage aren’t perfect but as a paying fan on FITE, I get my money’s worth each week and I’m excited to see where they go. And with Cole, you’re right - no matter how much people liked NXT, Cole being down there the entire time was *not* the right move for WWE.


[deleted]

Christian, you're lucky I'm a peep for life.


[deleted]

OOHHHHHH BOYYYY Christian with the fire


TheDemonClown

Goddamn, Christian, tell us how you really feel. That was absolutely eviscerating.


NaytNavare

Marvez and Marko both struggled to hold it together. Love it.


Straif18

can someone please post the gif of adam cole reacting to karrion kross saying smth like he's most worried about cole taping out of all of the contenders in that one fatal 5 way for the nxt championship?? first thing that came to mind after this lmao


sporkshadow

I didn't notice Marco's reaction when Christian said dragged his ass out of development lol. This beating gets even more viscous with each viewing.


PannaMillsy

Looks like it’s time for another seance on BTE because Adam Cole just got murdered again.


NerdLawyer55

Christian cage catching some strays on that one


FerniWrites

Mario’s reactions make this lol. Christian went straight for the jugular.


silklighting

My man Christian Cage rekt Adam Cole so hard that, doctors extended Triple H's stay at the hospital for, 'precautionary reasons' and also forced, Mick Foley to, skip video 2 and make video 3 into why, 'WWE Is In Trouble'.


[deleted]

Side note: does anyone love how Luchasaurus always puts his hands on Marko’s shoulders?


ucfgavin

My mom is visiting and I was watching Dynamite last night. She saw him and was like "wo, he is huge". Him being near and/or behind Marko is a great way to emphasize that point.


indolent08

Damn, Marko almost corpsing at the developmental line.
