Who are the best former & current wrestlers to follow on twitter?

[Fletcher 1,100]

Humphrey & A. Tirapelle are good. Others are a little heavy on product placement or quoting scripture. Appreciate any suggestions preferably sources for either inside info. or insightful analysis.

They are good, I'd say my top2 are Julia Salata and Mason Beckman - perfect combo of insight, humor and humility.

Tirapelle is fantastic.

Also please no PDII or PDIII suggestions; too much truth for me to handle.

I can't follow them, they blocked me :(

I quit Twitter last week. They kept trying to weasel my phone number out of me and pissed me off. Before that though I followed a few wrestlers. Cliff Fretwell is pretty damned funny on there and traded barbs with him a few times (in a good way) . I followed Hunter Steiber, Brent Metcalf, Cael, etc. Hunter Steiber has a superb sense of humor and doesn't mind making fun of himself, which is an endearing quality. Was friends with Jake Herbert, which was really cool. Sent a few messages to Cowboys/Sooners prior to NCAAs to wish them good luck. I used to like sending my favorites wrestling advice, as if they weren't already much better than me technically :D Too bad Kaid Brock didn't listen to me!

 

Twitter is a trap, though. One controversial tweet, even if it's only controversial because people take it out of context, can destroy a man's reputation/career. Be careful on there. Hopefully it's not going to hamstring some of the guys who've made stupid comments on there, like Ben Askren.

I follow quite a few on Twitter, but the two funniest are @kbnoswag (former Kent State wrestler Kyle Bauer) and @JSalata (World Team Member Julia Salata).  Gold.

Priesch from Lehigh is pretty good too

Dude - I think you're confusing Twitter with Grindr.

I know these are team accounts, but the two best teams to follow are, unquestionably, @LittleRockWRES and @PennWrestling.

Definitely Mark Schultz. Everything is pure gold.

Just started following him and one minute later I get a tweet on how WTC attack was orchestrated by the government to give TSA & DHS more authority to take our freedoms.  I've now got my tinfoil hat strapped on and am locked in for the roller coaster ride.

no, twitter wants your phone number or they accuse you of acting like a bot.

WASTE OF TIME

WASTE OF TIME

It’s twitter.

 

Of course it’s a waste of time.

[Fletcher 1,100]

WASTE OF TIME

Yup - too political for me.

[TobusRex 2,108]

Yup. I finally had enough. Literally the day after the end of "net neutrality" pretty much every social media site presented "new privacy rules" and started aggressively mining personal data.

 

But that's all in OUR best interest as consumers, right?

It's glorious, isn't it? Enjoy the ride.

Pretty interesting, especially in light of the fact there was no DHS until AFTER the WTC attacks :D  The rightwing has their own version of reality.

Let's put it this way: he's not the only crazy wrestler out there tweeting!

[PSUMike 445]

While I generally would agree, he's well spoken and actually engages in debate as opposed to just spewing insults and name calling with those whom he doesn't agree so I don't mind it at all.

and the Korean boy band stuff...
