Daniel Cormier and The Bullet Club Trade More Shots On Social Media
Wrestling fan and UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier took more shots at the Bullet Club on social media, which caused a Twitter exchange between himself and the Young Bucks. You can see the entire exchange below. Cormier originally criticized the Bucks back in December for a more athletic sequence that veered away from traditional pro wrestling, which led to Cody Rhodes coming to their defense.
He was asked about it by The MMA Hour (via MMA Fighting) and he said: “I’ve always loved it. Right now I’m not watching as much anymore because these guys kinda pissed me off a little bit. They turned me off to the whole thing. I’m like, what is wrong with these dudes? Everybody’s not going to like everything you do. Just so happens that I’m a professional wrestling fan that has a bit of a following himself. The wrestlers themselves said some stuff, and I was like, ‘Well, first off, calm down, because you know [*Cormier smacks his hand*]. Calm down. Initially, just calm down, because [*Cormier smacks his hand again*] — you and you and you, all of you together.’ Anyways, ‘Calm down. But secondly, you can’t dictate to people.’ And what really got me — what really got me was when a guy told me, he called me a charisma vacuum, meaning that I guess when I get on TV, it’s [*Cormier makes vacuum sound*] everybody turns off. Some guy on the internet. And then he goes, ‘You better go to the Performance Institute, or whatever it’s called, because Cody Rhodes will whip you. He’s a two-time state wrestling champion.’”
This led to the following exchange:
He still can’t get over that one drop kick spot? Smh.

I really don’t give a fuck how many dropkicks you do. I was asked about it. Stop playing with me. https://t.co/jojuIrCwrm

U don’t believe I make 7 figures? All your garbage that you normally spew at fans don’t work on me bud. Honestly you need to chill out you may see me one day https://t.co/4sDvNGNFaH
