Twitter beef is the best. Everyone puts their dirty laundry out there for all of us to see. Wrestlers beefing with Daniel Cormier is even better though. I could seriously watch DC argue with pro wrestlers who can’t seem to grasp what he is saying. At all.
Daniel Cormier is never one to hold back how he feels about something; Especially pro wrestling. He is a huge pro wrestling mark and like everyone on Earth, has his own opinions. However, DC is a public figure; So when he says something, it has an impact.
Enter the latest keyboard pounding tweet-off. It all started innocently enough. Someone posted a pro wrestling sequence that was pretty corny and Cormier did not like what he saw.

DC expressed how he did not like the flipping flippy flippyness and pro wrestlers came out of the woodwork to tell him he wasn’t allowed an opinion.
@philbaroni this is actually pathetic. This is what people wanna see? Go to a god dang gymnastics competition. Suplex, bodyslam, piledriver do some old school wrestling man. DDT, I remember when the frankensteiner was the most you’d ever see someone flip. I say Boo to this BS https://t.co/eF4pnCy0SA

I get it and I applaud them for doing it. Always make money. Not my cup of tea. Give me a spine buster and I’m good. AA style. That’s why I love Bobby Roode. Spinebuster, powerbomb. Shit like that. I expressed my opinion. https://t.co/jsr4ZLROBl

It's not pathetic. The paying audience enjoyed it. UFC is thriving, and pro-wrestling has been going strong since 1920…besides most of y'all ask hunter for a job when the wheels fall off anyway and most are on the comp list at staples…so lay the fuck off. https://t.co/oqKto3a4TK

Who knew that pro wrestlers were so sensitive?
