F**K It: Confessions of a Content Creator & Peoples' Faux Righteous Control

How online “righteousness” masks control and intimidation in the wrestling community.

Hey friends—

Sometimes you just have to say fuck it. It’s not internet-friendly or sponsor-friendly, but it perfectly captures the back-and-forth I had with myself about releasing Discord Voice Notes Vol. 3.

What do I dive into this time?


🐦 Twitter Drama

Over the past few days, an agent from Paradigm popped off in our niche wrestling bubble. He dropped some truth bombs about contracts, TV money, and rights. As expected, AEW Sickos didn’t take kindly to it. Dave Meltzer and the usual suspects jumped in, and Nick LoPiccolo? He clapped back with ease.

Then it got ugly.

Burner accounts (that never show their faces, of course) tried to dox Nick. They circulated fake police reports. Disgusting behavior. How low do you have to be? This is why I always say: the internet is too massive to control the scumbags, and sadly, they believe what they’re doing is okay.

I even mention a burner account that’s been stalking me. This troll parrots the same BS I’ve heard over and over:

  • “If you were nicer, more people would follow you.”

  • “Stop being a know-it-all!”

  • “You can’t save NJPW!”

  • “How broke are you?”

Why are these cowards so desperate to push women out of the wrestling space? What do they gain from trying to silence me? Is their inferiority that loud? It’s all about control. The moment you stop being their lap dog, they come after you to shut you up.

But I’m a New Yorker. Born and raised. We don’t quit. We survive.


💰 Money Talk

I’ve mentioned my overdraft status a few times on Twitter. And yeah, watch this get weaponized against me.

In this voice note set, I open up about how awkward it is to ask for support — whether it’s merch, memberships, the tip jar, or my One More Match Wrestling Planners. I’ve never been taught how to sell myself financially. I don’t want to be pushy. I just want to be real.

I break down how partner programs work and what full-time creators — like me — actually earn, and why we rely on direct support. Here’s some transparency for you:

Spotify:

To qualify for ads, I’d need:

  • 2,000 unique streamers

  • 10,000 total listening hours

I currently have:

  • 5/2,000 streamers

  • 10/10,000 hours

And yes, those are updated numbers. Spotify ads? Paid in pennies.

YouTube:

We hit the YouTube Partner Program. Huge win — thank you all. But the payout threshold is $100, and YouTube takes a 30% cut. I deeply appreciate everyone who supports me through:

I share this not for pity but to crush the myth that creators just sit around “doing nothing.” I chose this path because content creation fulfills me. It’s honest, it’s real, and it’s mine.

Watch someone try to weaponize that too.


🔥 Help keep me independent. All support links — memberships, merch, tip jar, and more. Every bit helps me stay honest, unfiltered, and creating on my own terms.


🥷 Harassment & Burner Accounts

Let’s get something straight: I don’t obsess over follower counts. Sure, it’s nice to grow — the internet runs on numbers. But I take more pride in knowing my community — your names, your quirks.

More followers don’t equal more value. What matters is the energy you attract and the connections you build. I care more about people who comment, share, and support than some inflated number that only looks good to clueless brands.

Now onto the real stuff — the MD situation.

Yes, I defended MD on Twitter. And I’ll say it here: I’d rather stand with someone unfiltered who speaks the truth than a snake who smiles to your face and stabs you later.

MD talks about culture — hood culture. If you’ve never lived it, don’t judge it. The attacks on him were baiting, borderline racist (and I don’t use that lightly), and clearly meant to provoke. But when you defend someone like MD? The lap dogs come for you. They’re obedient to the ones in power, desperate for approval.

Funny how they never punch up — only down.

Also, can we stop using sexuality as a debate flex? It’s weird. Nobody cares if you’re married or straight or queer when you’re acting insecure and arguing like a troll. If your comebacks include:

  • “You’re spanking it in your basement.”

  • “You get no girls.”

  • “I’m married! I can’t be [insert buzzword here]!”

You’re not owning anyone. You’re just embarrassing yourself.

Mute. Block. Move on. Why are you arguing so hard with a Black man just because he’s defending his family and himself? The bullying was insane — but of course, the lap dogs are never the problem.


🎙️ “Stop Selling Women Equality” — Latest Podcast Recap

Feminism? It’s starting to feel like a scam.

Instead of feeding women empty slogans, how about teaching them how to:

  • Save money

  • Invest in stocks

  • Build an Airbnb portfolio

  • Create passive income

  • Negotiate better pay

Because “You deserve to be paid what you’re worth” means nothing if no one’s teaching women how to calculate their worth in the first place.

Take wrestling. Roman Reigns (for example) earns a million a year. Does that mean a rookie woman on the indies deserves the same, just because of equality? No. That’s not how it works.

These “male feminists” who scream:

  • Equal pay! Equal TV time! Equal opportunity!

…look great on paper, but in practice? That’s the ideology of communism. We don’t need that.

We need merit.

Not everyone’s path is the same, so why pretend we all deserve the same things? It creates robots. We should celebrate our differences, not erase them in the name of fake equality.

Also: I was told “Thanking men for crumbs is silly.”

But here’s what I say:

THANK YOU, MEN.


Let them twist my words. Let them try to use it against me. I’m still going to speak my mind.
