interesting that "trench" deleted his twitter full of neo nazi followers, wiped his instagram, and removed all references to bring a "proud trench wolf" from what little social media presence i can find. this is after his original twitter was seemingly deleted and remade a few months before his debute. i don't know how legitimate this reporting about him being "out on injury" [before wrestling at all or really... doing anything requiring much physicality?] is, but if there are some company conduct/social issues at play i would Not. be surprised

#his whole IRL ''klondike'' gimmick is pretty uhm. Offensive. some of his tattoos are suspect and resemble what i have personal experience #with from family in the prison system+living between toronto and long island's (white) gang activity #also he just flat out appropriates AAVE and Black culture+fashion+protective hairstyles in general. we should not ignore this fact actually #i would love to understand why/how he was placed with swerve. bootleg brock presumably because he's friends with many Black rappers ( :/ )#but this whole faction feels really weird and like... TK loves putting together demographic factions. he loves when Black athletes only #work with Black athletes. AEW has gotten better about this but man. :| there are still some questionable decisions being made #and the image of swerve being in a faction with two gringos who love appropriating Black culture/music is especially... hmm.#<- especially considering swerve's wwe gimmick? or what i know of it at least? idk man the mogul shit has felt like Bad from day one to me #long post
