resigned re-signed These mean 2 very different things. LEARN THE DIFFERENCE, PLEASE.


Randym1982

I was like "Wait, he left the company?"


JustSomeWeirdGuy2000

He watched the Punk AEW footage and got scared to be in the same company as him.


Ghorrhyon

I thought it was Gulak, after what happened


WornInShoes

I wish I could award this I was like what the fuck


doitnow10

Unfortunately you could copy+paste this countless times in every wrestling and sports sub whenever contract renewals are discussed


Garra007

I actually thought this was talking about Drew Gulak for a few seconds.


MuddFishh

We still haven't got your/you're or there/their/they're over with the people yet. Re-signed/resigned won't be globally understood until the San-Ti arrive.


Pete_The_Clown

Literally, that's what caught me off guard. Words matter.


mira_poix

This is what happens when the world gets mad at "spelling nazis" for so long. I stopped correcting people's wrong usage of words after Trump became president and it was clear people would rather defend their rights to be stupid and other people's right to be stupid without being corrected...and if you try to correct the. everyone loves to attack the educator


Crippled_Kneees

correct *them


MONTYvsTHEWORLD

Yeah correcting obvious mistakes or typos is actually cringe. You're correcting ignorance not happenstance. In fact, you're the type of person that probably started this hate on the educator's for doing it for you and not the people 🫡


nearlyned

it’s almost like that’s the incredibly blatant joke they’re making or something


donutlikethis

It was "Grammar Nazis".


No-Combination8136

I upvoted you, but I only think it matters in certain circumstance. Like this post. Otherwise we aren’t writing essays and typos are very easy to make. If we were really going to harp on grammar we’d be spending all day proofreading every comment lol. Edit: see, we both had typos.


45tee

OP deserves to be blocked.


AgeingChopper

That truly threw me. I saw the headline and thought he was gone .


travisscottburgercel

fuckin op


GuzRoca

I was coming say this! My heart dropped!


flarkingscutnugget

op too ashamed to come back and respond to the criticism lmao


HiZenBergh

It's mad petty but it annoys the shit out of me


LuckyDistribution849

Jesus! The heading and the body did not align at all.


PikPekachu

THIS


TheGoonKills

I literally saw this post headline and had to do a second take because of the lack of a hyphen Before I realized what they were saying


s3rv0

Yep had a heart attack when I read it lol. Was already at the "It's gotta be a work" stage of grieving when I realized I misread it


sysdmn

Also, he's a part of the company now, now apart of the company


Alpharius__667

Yeah my dyslexic ass thought Drew had resigned from WWE and I was surprised until I read that he had in fact just re-signed with them


new_cannibalism

man i love the english language it's so stupid


-avenged-

How the fuck does someone not realize what "resigned" means in this context, even if they don't know what the proper term is?


doktor_e_banz

THIS!


Lord_Hexogen

Nah, it's you, English-speaking people, should have had some imagination and came up with two actually different words for this


breadedtoast11

That's the pint of grammar isn't it


nearlyned

they did come up with two different words, re-signing and resigning. There’s an entire extra character to help you out


FlyingDreamWhale67

These posts have taught me that none of y'all posters know the difference between resigned and re-signed


arewelegion

to, too, and two are 2 hard, let's set expectations appropriately


Irrespond

The Rock is already starting to behave as CEO of WWE.


AmishAvenger

With the addition of “brother” and “tequila” and presenting the image of a gift-giving regular dude.


tera_chachu

He is the high chief ☝


onionwba

👆


tera_chachu

Seems like u r insulting the tribal chief bro.


UpstairsConstant8155

Spelling chief like that could be seen as a bigger insult.


cosmic_scott

looks great, but who're the chefs?


embanot

I think this is really good for the company's optics. Rock is obviously well liked all over the world so him being the face of WWE/TKO corporate will help in many ways


Groundbreaking-Cow-3

C E O C E O C E O


c_the_editor95

Bro I was flabbergasted for a good 5 seconds. Re-sign lol


supersmall69

Either say "signed a new contract" or "re-signed". Damn near gave me a heart attack


mrsatanface

re-signed.


xMetalHead515

"Resigned" goddamn i almost got an heart attack...


GrimmTrixX

We need to stop using the word resigned. Or stop using the phrase re-signed. They both mean the opposite of each other. Lol hyphenation is important.


Kool20005

You are uneducated


LouisDeLarge

Take it easy man, all he did was spell one word incorrectly 😂. Drama queens on here today haha


grmthmpsn43

Its not that they used tge wrong spelling, its that the word they used has a very different meaning. If you don't know how to spell a word then don't use it, say "signed a new contract". Resigned means "has left the company."


LouisDeLarge

You all take this shit too seriously 😂. It took about 10 seconds out of my life to work out what he meant, it’s not exactly rocket science is it?


Wychwgav

And when everyone makes the same mistake how many sets of ten seconds do you lose in total? 10 seconds a day is roughly an hour a year, over a lifespan of say 85 years that’s over two hundred days you’ve wasted just figuring out other people’s mistakes. Now multiply that by the amount of people reading this post and see just how much of impact someone actually learning to use the right words they mean can have.


LouisDeLarge

Womp womp.


AlexTorres96

I wonder if Rock's people make good money from him. Whenever he does stuff for people, he mentions sending his people on that stuff. Must be extremely hard to get a hold of that man without jumping thru hoops.


Agent_Forty-One

THE FINAL BOSS.


ElChapoEscobar79

So is The Rock just done with movies, and this Final Boss thing is permanent?


AstroBtz

He's filming a movie right now. He's on the board of the company now, so we'll be seeing alot more of him talking about the product. He'll still be mostly part time however


Any-Ambassador3362

RE-SIGNED not resigned!!!


General-GhostD13

Bruh I was gonna say he left so suddenly. He signed a new contract.

MarvG05

Get ready to learn the lyrics of Broken Dreams buddy


whataball

Learn to spell bruh


Zaphod_Beeblecox

Of course he did. Where else is he going to go? The opportunity in AEW is limited at best. If he went there he'd be featured for three weeks and then he'd be in trips matches with chucklefuck Taylor and dipshit McGillicuddy


ElGuanacho

Lol I thought you meant Drew quit.


JeonTaemin7

Is Khan that hard to spell lol


Dangerous_Copy_3688

One thing I noticed is The Rock LOVES to use the word "as"


Dubsified

Re-signed, brother. Re-signed.


Stoutyeoman

Can we normalize not using a word that literally means "quit" when wrestlers do the literal opposite of quitting?


throwawayalcoholmind

Can people please spell it re-sign? Because that's what happened.


Reysun_2185

The delusional people on AEW sub aint gonna like this


Doc_Sawbones

Got so confused for a sec. Glad he's signing again and not resigning lmao


8-Bit_Aubrey

Jesus Christ, I misread this title and was very sad for a second.


ruralevent-101

How dumb can you be


Majestic-Custard-309

Am I the only one disappointed to have missed out on the 'Summer of Hunk'? FU Rock!


SwingDingeling

Isn't it Nick Khan, not Kahn?


Groundbreaking-Cow-3

every fucking time someone writes it the wrong way


Christian_RULES

The Final Boss is benevolent and wise. 👆🏽


Noahs132

This was expected honestly considering how these past few months have gone for him


AloneCan9661

The man destroyed Rollins even further for you.


lispolerbear

Such a pity. They could have had him challenge for the title in Scotland (contract ending scenario like Punk in MITB) and leave with the belt for a few months just shitposting than publicly announce his new contract. Kayfabe brother.


Mr_sex_haver

But I thought he was going to AEW to own Punk and drink fancy wine with the young bucks!!! /S


xanzpatrie

If you smell what the Final Boss ia cooking.


IcyAd964

Who thought he’d go to the pissant promotion at the height of his career?


TheDudeFromTheStory

Inflammable means flammable?


DifferencePretend

Rock give him a sword? 🗡️


[deleted]

Broken Dreams song returning?


MikeHock_is_GONE

American English needs a new word for that.. how about re-enlisted


greggersamsa

Man, OP is really playing into the uneducated wrestling fan stereotype.


AtomicYoshi

I cannot stand the way he writes, it sounds like every LinkedIn post


jgpsound

I read the title as resigned


Eazy46

There their they’re


throwwawayyy688

Why did he quit?


HachikoInugami

He ain't. OP simply does not know the difference between **resigned** and **re-signed**...


Legend12901

Rock is so false, certain he has never watched a full Drew McIntyre match in his life


s3rv0

Rock. I cannot stress this enough. I don't give a fuck about your cheat meals, your Instagram, or any of that. At all. Tama is the MFT, Cheat Meals are my ZFG - Zero Fucks Given


Autographz

Wow I am so shocked. Been saying for months he’s re-resigned and I still believe that. In no way were they working on a handshake deal for the last however many months they’ve been pushing and featuring him so strongly.


awwgeeznick

Oh look people bringing up aew just to shit on them how shocking


[deleted]

[удалено]


awwgeeznick

Oh look an E Stan staning for a 50 year old talent from a bygone era.


Azraeleon

They just can't stop thinking about aew. Clearly very good marketing.

Azraeleon

The only people who should care about the ratings are WBD. If they're happy then it doesn't matter. And they're happy. Now go back to circlejerking over papa H


[deleted]

[удалено]


Azraeleon

WBD willingly said they fucked up the broadcast and aew is doing great, just this week. They have never not indicated satisfaction with AEW's performance. It was recently valued as a billion dollar company by Forbes. AEW is doing fine. Ticket sales are up, and the ratings dropped because of the basketball, which, like, shock horror, sports drops ratings. I know you all desperately want to see aew fail so WWE can go back to being the pig shit of the late 2010's you clearly loved, but unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case. Sorry bud.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Azraeleon

The "seat fillers" were veterans that AEW offered free seats to, which they are doing at all events bar ppvs. Just like WWE does/did (I don't know if they still do). And why do you care? Give a good, legitimate reason to *want* aew to fail. It makes wrestling worse for everyone if there is no competition. WWE would still be doing dog food feuds if it wasn't for AEW you clown.


MarvG05

Hey Tony


Azraeleon

Yup, I must be a shill because I don't just blindly believe every negative story about AEW (which 9/10 times are false, like the example above, perpetrated by WWEs media machine). You guys are seriously fucking stupid lmao


ThankeekaSwitch

I saw headline yesterday he signed new contract and then today he resigned? Knew something was wrong. I like Drew. He's got a good look and good skill. I enjoyed him on mic other night about his kilt and cousin kissing.


MistaMischief

So I got a bit confused as well. I think it’s re-signed not resigned. So he’s still with wwe


adkenna

I wonder if Drew even understood that Gaelic line.


geltza7

Considering how important that sentence is to us, yes, he'd understand it whether or not he's fluent in gaelic.


Muffdivah

I can’t be the only one over this Final Boss thing right now


GenerallyGoodCraic

You're never the only one.
