Who knows with wrestlers. It is uncommon for a joke to become serious with them. The Bret v Shawn documentary basically said everything that happened post Wrestlemania 12 was a work that became a shoot because of mystery. They can easily lose sight of the joke.

I don't think there's much mystery to that one, actually. Bret was always kind of a humorless curmudgeon and Shawn was so whacked out of his mind on drugs that he probably couldn't tell the difference between work and shoot.

Agreed. I'd only go further saying that you never know when wrestlers are going to take something too seriously. See also: Russo work-shoot on Hogan that turned into a shoot-shoot.







Shoot.

At best 25%, but you add shoots to the mix? Chances of marking drastically go down.

Henry explained himself and explained he was upset at the publicness of Curt's tweet. He tweeted publicly as well so everybody could see the explanation. Don't see how Henry is the dick here.

Probably the part where he told him he was going to come to his house to beat him up.

Exactly. When you're no longer working with someone, cool-guy wrestling trash talk becomes threatening a home invasion.

Lol that dude said he didn't see where Henry was a dick and paraphrased what he said while leaving out the part that was clearly the thing that everyone thought made Henry a dick but I understand it's often hard to read more than one post before responding

I didn't paraphrase it, I ignored it. I didn't take it seriously because legitimate threats of violence would've been much more private. I'm honestly shocked it was taken seriously by anyone.

If I'm wrong and there is some sort of Henry-on-Hawkins violence in the future based on that exchange, I'll admit to being an idiot about the entire thing.

Personally, I hope Mark Henry really does beat him up. The only way it could have been better was if he called Lesnar an idiot.

You guys are all dumb.

Henry knows where Hawkins is and will send Curt a hand written poem about how much it hurt Mark that his good friend Curt called him an idiot and didn't apologize.

Angsty teenage poetry written by middle-aged men is truly the best medium to resolve grievances, I agree.

I didn't have time to say hi, otherwise I would have. It's just as well - his Twitter makes it sound like he's not happy about his flight being screwed up.
