Sounds like the typical BS that happens when two people haven't spoken to each other but have spoken to others.

They just need to talk to each other. I get Eddie's point. He just blew the roof off that event. After that last stink bomb that was M2, Metamoris could've easily gone belly up. Even after all the star power they threw at it, it still wasn't that great of an event until Eddie/Royler. A simple text like, "great job Eddie" would've made sense.

On Ralek's side, I can understand that he's super busy. But seriously, a text ain't that hard.

Now he's texting Eddie, and Eddie's busy. This just makes matters worse. But I think things will smooth over. This is just miscommunication on a larger scale.

It is a simple miscommunication, but Eddie putting it on blast isn't cool.

yeah this is all starting to get pretty silly. Crazy how sensitive all these JJ guys can be sometimes. I heard Joe's podcast and Eddie simply said he thought Ralek was mad at him cause he hadn't heard from him after the match and that shit with Royce. Eddie even said he didn't want to talk about Royce but it was already on the internet and felt like now he had to. No one should have to walk on eggshells all the damn time because of someone else's sore ego. Saying you think someone is mad at you is not as bad as telling people you've lost respect for someone as a man. People have been giving Eddie shit ever since he beat Royler the first time. Even Royler said Eddie got lucky. To me that is disrespectful. We know not all Gracies have the same opinions, but like it or not, they have such a highly revered name as they should know by now when they say something like that, people are gonna see them as a whole and judge them for that. That's just human nature. I think Ralek has done an awesome job promoting Metamoris and jiu jitsu all together, and i don't think anyone wants Metamoris to fail, i think that is just Ralek's own insecurity. I'm just getting tired of all people in general who can't give a compliment without some kind of passive aggressive bull shit to follow. What we really need instead of another rematch is a fucking intervention so this shit gets sorted out. Love Gracies, Love 10th planet, Love Jiu Jitsu, Love Everyone, even when they piss you off sometimes.

This is Miscommunication at it's finest.

I'm sure that Ralek is grateful for Eddie's Performance... It was Fight of the Night! Hell, it was the best match in Jiu-Jitsu history and technically HE OWNS IT... what more can you ask as a promoter?

On the flip side, despite the words being said, Eddie is a real dude (that's why I chose to train with him)... I'm sure that he appreciated the opportunity to shut up all the haters out there. Also, M3 is making 10th Planet Evolve, and I wouldn't be surprised if there were 20 new moons added to the mix.

FACT IS... Both of them helped out eachother (Ralek Provided the Platform, Eddie Provided the Entertainment), they just haven't had an opportunity to hash out the little details in the aftermath. Ralek at the end of the day is a promoter/businessman and beef with Eddie may attract some publicity, but ultimately its bad for business.
