Don't tweet.

There is no point.

You won't convince the WWE fan that AEW actually does tell stories, only with slightly less exposition. You won't convince the AEW fan that sometimes the show can actually be bad. Your insightful way of telling them this isn't insightful; it's blindingly obvious, you're only doing it to score engagement dunk points, and the person you are quote tweeting has no interest in being persuaded.

Or, more accurately, don't be a piece of sh*t. Don't even be an edgelord, which is basically being a piece of sh*t and playing dumb about it.

Jessica Havok ruined her chances of making it to WWE when, midway through a 2014 tryout she believes to have "killed" and "nailed", per a blog post, people on Twitter excavated old tweets.

They ranged between spectacularly ill-advised and abhorrent in nature; while trying to get noticed on the independents, she criticised WWE's then Divas division which, while fair, was stupid. Far more stupid and awful was her decision to tweet out what she purports to have been ironic racist jokes between friends.

The "It was just banter" defence didn't convince many people, shockingly, and Havok was consigned to virtual Impact Wrestling obscurity forevermore.
