We need more to come forward about this too

Definitely, but at least Slim Jim will hurt them big time (it's their biggest sponsor since last summer.)

Yeah, they were a big Rumble Sponsor too, doing things with New Day about looking for their car. It sucks for the people involved with the Slim Jim campaigns.

If I'm Tony Khan I pick up the phone and have WBDiscovery's marketing see if they want to sponsor AEW, they may not, but I'd try it.

Slim Jim commercials featuring Black Machismo is something I never knew I needed.
