Media Man Scribe: We've giving 90 percent accuracy on this report, mainly because the powers that be here feeling that Grok may be being over generous/over positive and more than balanced on some of the AEW news. Pro wrestling is subjective in nature, as it's not pure sport. AEW has plenty of critics, just as WWE had its fair share in the past. The vast majority of pro wrestling enthusiasts believe that for the past 3 years plus WWE has for the most part being presenting exceptional quality pro wrestling with high quality storylines, much cantered around The Bloodline. There is currently much buzz and speculation around if living legend Roman Reigns will return at the upcoming SummerSlam event and even Brock Lesnar's name is coming up on a more frequent basis. Wrestling as other pop culture sectors enjoy strong fanbases and the internet has turned into quite the rumour mill for what's happening behind the scenes, often before the wrestling promotion addresses many subjects. Many of the wrestling rumours and wrestling websites have little to no involvement by actual journalists - not that it's such a major issue these days, as journalism is an embattled industry and its links to Big Pharma, politics and some elements of woke type culture are not a secret. Grok remains a "non-woke" form of AI according to X Corp top brass Elon Musk, and the Media Man Group agrees with the statement.
