Did A Wrestlinginc "Journalist" Really Steal A Story from PWInsider's Paywall Site (Elite Membership/Subscriber Section)?

 


Yep, she ssuuurreee did, and was quite obvious about it too. I had this sent to me from someone who requested their name not being mentioned. I haven't bothered to look at Wrestlinginc in months, and the only time I go to PWInsider is when someone tells me a Mike Johnson 'exclusive' that isn't really exclusive is posted. I go and verify it before i do a story on it, like I did last night.

Now I had heard about this kind of stuff and it's way different than when twenty other sites like NoDQ, Wrestletalk, Sportskeeda and others reference PWInsider (as they do the Wrestling Observer, Meltzer, etc) but those stories come from the 'free' sites or NON-paid subscription sections.

THIS, came from PWInsider's "Elite" section, meaning people PAY to get access to things that aren't posted on their 'free' site. Since proof as i always say is a mother fucker, and we're the mother fuckers who always have proof, here's some proof for you.


Here's the story again that Ella stole.


Now here's the link Ms. Ella posted as a reference of where she openly stole the story from.


And now, HERE's what happens when one clicks on that "PWI Elite" link she posted.


Nothing like blatantly showing that you stole a story from a paid site. But I guess that's how they do it over at WrestlingInc now. I wonder how Static Media who owns Wrestlinginc, would feel about knowing one of their alleged 'journalists' openly stole a story from another site's paid subscriber section just so she could use it as some sort of 'exclusive' for their site? 

I bet Dave Scherer and Mike Johnson didn't give Ella permission to swipe things from the Elite section. But there it is, and I wonder how many other stories she's stolen from them.

Lesson number one, if you're going to openly steal from a paid site, don't openly brag that you did it, then show that you did it, dumb ass.

Nice 'professionalism' they have over at Wrestlinginc, real nice (rolls eyes).

Damn! Outted as fuck. You really don't go to sites like PWInsider? How do you get your stories then?

Had Wrestlinginc or Ella Jay give you any blow back about this piece?

Of course not, what can they say? They going to be mad at us because we saw the obvious? That doesn't fall on us, that falls on the, ahem... 'journalist' who brazenly showed where she stole the story from.
