For what it's worth, I brought up Nazis because the biggest movie franchise right now (The Avengers) outright began, timeline-wise, with a guy fighting Nazis, and certainly if homophobic villains have no place in media, Nazis don't either.

I paid 60 dollars two weeks ago to buy a video game that's nothing but shooting Nazis because shooting Nazis is fun because they're dickheads and I want to see them get comeuppance.

The Briscoes aren't worth talking about. This is, though:



Here's the link: Alberto Del Rio: 'Take Time to Be a Dad Today'.

There's also one with Roman Reigns, which is just wonderful. I can't find a link for the video that isn't on tumblr, though.

He does. I need to see this video, it looks hilarious.

NY Times posted:

Featured in them are Mr. Del Rio, reading at bedtime to his son; Mr. Reigns, singing “I’m a Little Teapot” with his daughter; and Mr. O’Neil, playing cards with his two sons.

Aw yiss. The use of "Mr. Reigns" is making me laugh.

Edit 2: Here's the video direct link.

This is probably true, especially combined with IWS having never been particularly sensitive or politically correct, and there was definitely a lot of crazy poo poo going on. I remember seeing this at Breakout 2005 and being like "drat that dude is awesome for taking those chops". It was the era of Super Dragon so the more you stiffed people and dropped them on their heads, the better I perceived you as being. :shobon: That match actually ends in an unprotected top rope double knee cannonball senton, which in retrospect is absolutely insane but it blew the roof off the place.

So yeah, I think you're right. If people like a wrestler, that tends to transcend bad gimmicks.

Call it the Real Americans corollary. The Real Americans were awesome, so people cheered them, despite their manager's reprehensible politics. Although obviously Zeb isn't as offensive as a fuckin' nazi.

All this post reminded me of was Swagger after winning the Elimination Chamber, where the gimmick was starting to get into it's swing and Swagger & Zeb getting some very awkward pops and cheers from certain citites.

There was sound sweetening on a specific Smackdown which made he seem like the most hated heel in the history of the company, only to cover the cheers he was getting.

Sorry for the misunderstanding buddy. Let's bond over the amazingness that is Roman Reigns Tea Party. :3:

I also can't be the only one that heard Roman's "Take time to be a dad....today." as having serious undertones of "And if you don't I'll come to your house and spear you, you delinquent deadbeat", can I?

They wouldn't let Rollins do one because even if he HAD kids, his motivational trash-talk wouldn't be family-friendly.

If 1/10th of the stuff he used to reference happening to him as a kid when he was cutting promos as Jon Moxley is true, the dude has every right in the world to be as carny as he wants to be.

Reigns has improved quite a large amount since his debut already. If you go back to watching the first Shield match, you'll see it in no time what so ever. He'll never be Daniel Bryan levels of technical skill, but the guy is doing all he can to get better.
