Warning: I usually say at some point or another they will be
censored adult language references, but this is one of those occasions where it
is guaranteed so not only that and I will give you the courtesy of tell you I
will be respectful to some extent, but that will be pushed, in a nutshell there
will be pipe bombs being dropped in a wrestling sense in this content, not for
clicks or likes but a genuine perspective, so you have been warned.
WWE Ridge Holland a.k.a. Luke
Menzies out again: his statement is
as follows: "Thank you all for the incredible support shown through the
GoFundMe campaign.
However,
I want to clarify that I was not aware of the page going live and had no prior
discussions with the family member who created it.
I've
requested that no more further donations be accepted, and this change should
take effect within the next 24 hours.
One
we figure out how to move forward and I recoup the amount donated I will be
donating said amount to charity.
I
sincerely apologise if this page has caused any upset or offence-that will not
their intent. Thank you for your understanding and kindness."
So
I don't know about everyone else, but I have questions, such as Oh I don't know
how come based on my timeframe it took from Friday 07/11 night to roughly
Sunday 09/11/2025 Sunday afternoon for him to deal with this?
Okay
let's be fair originally I would take him for his word that originally he had
no idea of this sequence of events, but however his defence is a bit weak
considering because he has a social media presence/platform and regardless if
he is on it or not consistently, the fact remains Friday night in particular
this blew up on social media platform; X, so I'm not speculating here and
saying it as I see it, so let me repeat that again I am not speculating here or
furthermore gaslighting here, I am simply trying to imply that either he was
under a rock or no one from his mobile devices said, you may want to check on
social media or something hence why his defence sounds a bit weak.
Look
I am going to tell you where I am personally with this whole saga; I am very
much done with it to be honest. On every turn of events Menzies/Holland twists
everything for an example; making it look like he is the victim, when if he
didn't post his rant about the WWE he wouldn't have been essentially fired from
his existing contract which would have guaranteed him some form of money and
then some days later, he taking responsibility for getting fired in the first
place and just for the record, he also acknowledged by taking responsibility
for it, that the outcome was inevitable because everyone knows that there is a
piece in there that says you can't say anything about the WWE negatively
publicly on a social media platform, so in essence he and only he is responsible
for getting himself fired consequently possibly into financial difficulty and
this is precisely why I could not listen to him anymore as it relates to any
subject, because putting this nicely as I can; I don't know if he is being
honest or talking out of his posterior.
Once
again let me tell you where I am with this whole fundraising what the hell is
this bullmanure, so this family member put up this fund raising account to a
your bills and here is the kicker explored your children and the best you can
do is that they apologise and essentially apologise for if this caused any
upset or anything like that and at some point in the future donating it to a
charity.
Now
I don't know about everyone else you don't exploit children for financial gain
and let me explain you see with this fundraising you clearly got the picture of
this wrestler and two the children by the seaside [rough description] and a
mention of his children and if anyone use my children to fund raise without my
permission or knowledge I would be urinated off extremely urinated off and I
don't care if it is a family member or not.
You
see throughout the years I have had to do fundraising the old fashion way for
this that and the other and if you don't know it is actually hard work, day in,
day out and night in and night out, so you quickly learn about trust and
ethics; meaning if you give us any donation it will go towards its intended
purpose in this case making sure that Menzies/Holland and his family, his
children in particular were safe and possibly had a Christmas; keeping in mind
that this wrestler had already implanted the notion of him unable to pay his
mortgage in previous statements.
Then
from out of nowhere like a Randy Orton's RKO we have Yuvraj Singh Dhesi/WWE's
Jinder Mahal saying that they do need more financial education, the WWE to give
financial education program sharing his opinion on the following: "“Just
curious- how much do you think NXT talent make when you subtract travel,
wrestling gear, maintaining a professional athlete physique, gym, and
supplements… now subtract taxes.” He went on “Now, with what’s left, try
raising a family, paying for groceries, rent/mortgage, car payments, and
personal health insurance for you and your family.” In his conclusion
highlighting the risks of injury, noting, “Now factor in not being able to earn
income due to injury... add the fact that you no longer have WWE-provided
health insurance for wrestling-related injuries - and you’re staring at a
possible neck surgery.”
I
have one problem with this statement and it is based on the fact that
Menzies/Holland spent a good may be 3 years on the main roster and it is good
to see the number of people including wrestlers befuddled by this situation,
okay it isn't any of our business. But in our defence he has made it our
business by this whole am just going to call it as I see it soap opera of
bullmanure, can I just say with him coming out and saying that he took a pay
cut on his last WWE/NXT contract is just another excuse, meaning so you took a
pay cut to still be in the job, as I have already previously stated for roughly
3 years you are on the main roster, so at what point did you not think, maybe
just maybe I should be living a modest including getting my family to adapt to
a modest life, so that just in case I may be out of work at some point,
hopefully not but you never know.
I
mean I completely agree with the comment I saw on social media briefly and
paraphrasing; wrestlers used to sleep in their cars to save money or Mick Foley
tells of this competition that he used to have with Owen Hart, of who could do
everything on the cheap, because they both didn't want to spend too much money,
I am not saying that you have to sleep in your car nowadays, but my over
arching point is; save your money and after all this situation, I have seen
enough to say that I don't want Menzies anywhere near AEW, in fact to be
brutally honest I don't want any established name from WWE/NXT anywhere near
AEW, because in short I am getting fed up to my back teeth with the drama they
bring to the table, unless the name is Anoaʻi or a conviction or Rotunda or a
connection, or any DNA that comes out of Haku [on a quick side note they should
really come up with a stable at some point in the near future and just call
them The Children of Haku and have him as their moment,] Hart or a connection
including trained in the dungeon, I am not interested So finally you should
take responsibility for his family member and distribute the money back to
those that gave it in good faith through these very difficult times, because I
don't speak garbage I was strongly considering at one point donating £50 and in
my world that is one of equivalent to a hospital trip, I don't care if it costs
you money or whoever these good people that chipped in, give them their money
back end of story.
I
really wanted to finish off this content, but it has just come to my attention
that Menzies would have been open to the idea of this fundraising page, if he
was asked first and yet again, that the reason why he vented on social media is
because he had some bad news is that relates to his health or/and living
arrangements, I am not justifying his outburst, I am just saying things as they
are.
This
has been a complete shower of manure!
