Except both were in AEW together for over a year. Hardly a trade. One was just actually able to get an offer from WWE while the other was turned down and has had to fill her deep hole of insecurity with meaningless title after title just to make herself feel important

You don't need to read dirtsheets to have known Mercedes dragged her heels for as long as she could before finally signing with AEW. She was sat in the crowd at All In 2023 which was August. She didn't debut until 7-8 months later. She tried to use that as leverage to get WWE to bite. Once she realized they weren't going to she had no choice but to go to AEW. Meanwhile Blake Monroe had AEW offering the world to keep her as well as a big offer from WWE as well. Something Mercedes could only dream of. Plus is it really "dirtsheets" if it comes straight from the horse's mouth?

Except she only ever does it while she's in the country. She doesn't actually care about those places' heritage beyond that. It's performative and cheap

Denmark retard is having a hard day huh? Was AEW that bad last night when you watched it from your shitty apartment in the middle of nowhere?

You don't have to dress in a kimono everyday to respect the culture faggot. If you wear it in Japan, Japanese people aren't gonna have a problem with it. If you wear a sombrero in Mexico Mexicans aren't gonna say anything.
She's a bitch, a whore, and a phony, but wearing traditional costumes, in the origin country or anywhere else, isn't disrespectful.

I'm not. At all. What she's doing isn't celebrating it though. What is she celebrating? How is she celebrating it? What part of the culture is she shining a light on? Or is she just using the aesthetic for a cheap pop and likes on social media since she's there and can get away with it? How come she's never worn a kimono since she left Japan? How come that's the first time she's worn a hat like that? If she genuinely likes and celebrates those cultures so much then surely her appreciation of them wouldn't just be limited to while she's in those countries right?

You're looking too deep into things. She wore a kimono in Japan, it's a normal thing to do. They're comfortable. Japan has bigger things to worry about, like a collapsing economy and endless jeets/nuisance/chink tourists. Sometimes, a kimono is just a fucking kimono.
>>18039102 >but wearing traditional costumes, in the origin country or anywhere else, isn't disrespectful.
I fully agree in principle. But like I just pointed out here >>18039130 how come it never is "or anywhere else" with her? I'm all for spreading around and sharing as much of cultures as possible. But intent matters and the way she does it reeks of it being performative and being about herself rather than the culture
